 Jack doesn't seek to know me. He doesn't know why I'm in pain. He's just a
 little annoyed that I'm bleeding on the carpet.

 If one side aligns themselves toward truth and righteousness, then those who
 oppose them must necessarily utilize the opposite in their intentions.

 If you had taken a road untravelled, your current (alternate) form would be
 just as valid as your current (present) form. No matter the road, no matter the
 consequence. You are important in all things.

 multidimensional arrays aren't too hard, it gets a bit more complicated when
 you need multidimensional *slices*, but once you get your head around
 it it comes easier.

 looking backwards in time, at the pattern the moon makes around the sun. each
 rotation layered upon itself, time and time again, as the reciprocal orbit
 dances eternally around our precious centrality.

 if the success or failure of the stock market determines the structure and       │
 organization of our society, then shouldn't we all have an equal vote?           │
 There's a lot of infrastructure set up in the world today that orients itself    │
 around the financial system we currently have. The main problem with it is that  │
 some have access to it, while others don't. And even if everyone had money to    │
 spend on it, the fact that some have *more* access than others implies           │
 that one person's vote is worth more than another's.                             │
 We explicitly decided that all men are created equal. We fought a war with the   │
 fascists over it, and we won, at terrible cost. The extreme inequality of our    │
 economy is a symptom of an attitude that has persisted since the first monarch   │
 donned their crown.                                                              │
 Infrastructure takes time to change. When you fix the printer drivers, for some  │
 reason the wi-fi won't connect. But, with time, you can fix things as they       │
 arise.                                                                           │
 Without time, you can change who is in charge of the various knobs and levers.   │

 If I destroyed the world, don't worry. I'd bring it back in such a way that the
 teleporter problem doesn't apply, and there would be no discontinuity for
 anything except for the time variable, which is sort of arbitrary anyway.
 
 And if that's a problem I guess I could find a way to do it without messing
 with the time variable, but that'd be a bit more bothersome.

 When they owned a percentage they would get a percentage of control over the
 business and once it's 50% they buy it (stock follows, so if a person owned
 stock they'd be fine)
 
 The value is frozen, and everyone in the world can see what they did wrong.
 It's examined like a court case, and after a year or three it's decided on how
 it's going to be run in the future.
 
 Then it becomes private again, and all the stock is purchased from the owners
 at the price it was when the company "went under".

A screenshot based continuation of the end of the post, which went over the character limit by 36 characters. Of note is that this wasn't included in the original post, it was added later in an edit to be silly.  The text reads:  "maybe I'll run out of characters in this toot, or maybe I'll finish it just for you. [smiley face]"
