From the birth of agriculture, we were done for. How long ago
   was that? Alas, writing had thousands of years before being
   invented at that point.

   At the same time, you *can* do what you want. Anything you want.

   And also, someone else can do what THEY want. Anything they
   want, which INCLUDES following a book of laws that include
   putting your hands behind your back and moving you to a indoor
   space that you didn't ask to go to.
