This, and if they're a friend, not pausing to think before a shared activity that would make you consider finances. A weekend/weeklong trip, concert tickets to a costly performer/seats, trying a new more expensive restaurant for lunch, etc. Even if they aren't interested that time, the explanations say that openly or they address the cost in time, not money.

Why do anything? Every goal is a value choice. Pleasure? Money? Leaving a legacy in children or added knowledge or whatever? Learning? Improving your community? Improving the world in general? Raging against the absurd?
If self-centered hedonism is the way you want to spend your brief meaningless time in this meaningless world, go for it! Just go for it with the same full knowledge of its pointlessness and your mortality as you would anything else.
In a defensive war against an equal or more powerful enemy, everyone is needed to do the part the military organisation needs them to. For many it's their civilian job, for the rest it's whatever's needed, including the front lines (after training, well-equipped and well-led). War's ugly.
I'd be highly sceptical of any beatings occurring. Common sense suggests that an unwilling soldier you got to the front that way would likely bring more harm to the morale of their fellow troopmates, than benefit through their own efforts.
When Real Men fuck, women just get in the way.
It's not exactly the same physical brain though? Neurons die and are sometimes, if rarely in adulthood, generated. They are constantly repaired, the exact molecules that make them up change. Glial cells die and form and they have supporting functions. Diseases change brain structure more slowly than immediate trauma. And so on.
I certainly wouldn't say I'm the same person I was as a toddler.
Eating a banana. First you bite both heads off, then sink your front teeth into one end to nibble away one third, then separate the other two thirds and eat them separately. You can think of them as the corpora cavernosa and the corpus spongiosum to maintain the penis-analogue in a slightly more disturbing form.
Not American, but definitely would. I'd get it a new fun/tacky paintjob for shits and giggles, maybe a realistic/stylized total rust bucket look, or grandma's crocheted lace. Or, if possible, just black and enhance any scratches with fineline gold paint, overscratch swastikas and replace them with flowers, etc.
Pretty sure the term solified itself after the 1968 Prague spring, when most communists condemned or remained silent and ashamed of the Soviet/Warsaw pact invasion of Czechoslovakia, and the ones supporting the violence became the Stalinist minority? At least that's when our major communist split happened afaik.
If you ignore it for long enough, you can replace burn out with depression.
allows you the luxury of studying to increase the value of your work output
I've always wanted more value from my work output! Or contentment and self-actualization, it was one or the other.
luxury of ennui that gives you philosophical dread on your idle hours
I'm assuming you mean that those idle hours are the luxury? Because I'm pretty sure tedium and boredom existed in the fields and cobalt mines long before it got a fancy French name.
others would kill to be on your not-working-in-cobalt-mines shoes while being fed and safe
Relative privation?
Also, is eating ramen being fed? Is it safety if you're one illness and insurance fuckup, or a job loss and six(?) months, away from homelessness?
this while having thrived up to an age that for most of human history has basically senility
Extreme infant and childhood mortality explains most of the short historical lifespans. 30 was never senility.
The same logistics and industrial development... is the one that gives you the climate change.
Every step of towards lessening greenhouse gases brings us closer to the fall of western civilization! Fly more, abolish public transportation, eat only beef, set your AC so low you have to wear a sweater!
