I'm not sure.

For starters us being chemical robots makes it sound like the reactions taking place in our brain & gut should be obvious indicators of what we will do next. But that's not possible because Chaos Theory exists which negates Laplace's demon.

Then there's Quantum Superposition & Entanglement because of which even the most simple of decisions may not result in the obvious even with the same chemical reactions taking place in our head.

We also kind of hallucinate our reality, that is to say we don't properly see things as they actually are but how our brains interpret them. This is why illusions and hypnosis effect us, this is also why any psychoactive substance affects us the way they do. This could very well prove that we hallucinate a sense of control and self, on the other hand it's a big part of our culture to go to the pub to lose control which is a conscious decision we've been taking for millenniums.

There are more reasons but all of them like the above ones only work to increase more questions instead of giving answers. I feel like if reality is finite then we are not in control of our thoughts & vice versa.

No only for the select few, the rest of us are serfs. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if one of the billionaires started calling themselves Ramesses XXVI or something.

lactose bigotry.

How is it bigotry to be lactose intolerant when it's not a choice any individual can make? Being lactose tolerant isn't even a trait shared by half the world's adult population.

If only they'd actually played the game. She's basically going through hell, makeup and hygiene are the least of her worries.

MFW I'm so straight that the line went straight from my dick and around the world into my butt, and now I'm gay

“the 20-year streak of measles being eliminated in the us” is the road.

You are wrong, it would be the point of impact according to your method of marking. Also the streak itself is not signified by the road but the people alive already in the bus, again according to your logic. As The Quuuuuill mentioned, "The meme is flexible. Your attitude is not"

It had a really good premise but man if that combat wasn't cool af. Been wishing for a remake of it for years now and will probably keep on doing so sadly.

Oni from 2001 by Bungie which I actually have on my pc by some miracle but it's not on steam nor on gog so I can't even recommend it to anyone normally.
