When I bike my niece to school and I see a Tesla coming towards me there's always a conflicted moment of:

Is it full self driving?😰

Is it full self driving?🤞

Maybe, but if you get to fuck around and enjoy yourself, then why not?

I guess he never heard the song.

---

You get up every morning from alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above and people pushing, people shoving
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time, you can get to work by nine
And start your slavin' jobs and get your pay
If you ever get annoyed, look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day

[...]

If it were easy as fishing, you could be a musician
If you could make sounds loud or mellow
Get a secondhand guitar, chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
People see you having fun just a-lying in the sun
You tell them that you like it this way
It's the work that we avoid and we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day

Song

There's an intersection on my walking route that I think of as "my retirement plan." No luck yet but at least one car ignores the No Right Turn light on every cycle, so it's only a matter of time.

Just pull yourself up by the bus crash.
