    weird how if you set up a plan to do a thing, arrange the materials ahead of time for this thing, and get dedicated motivated people on board looking forward to a better future

    the thing just gets accomplished. people feel good when they make a lasting mark on the world

    truly baffling, inscrutable alien stuff huh

    didn't even have to have twenty middlemen siphoning away resources and cut-throat competition and risk of starvation and homelessness to motivate people
