I take solace in the fact that, as a 4chan post, it's probably made up.
scant solace.

Out of curiosity, why was it ever wefwef? And what's now motivating this change?

More people died by the spear than the sword, and if you don't like my opinion, I'll shove it up your ass with sharp stick!

the bow and arrow is just a logical extension of mankind's desire to poke each other at ever longer range.

What are some modern bullshit jobs?
not exactly what you're asking, but banks and insurance companies are the majority of what I call "the beaurocracy of money". they don't produce anything of value, and are basically just a sinkhole for labour.

if it "excused" it, we'd say "oh, okay, on that case that's fair. no further action needed"
what this does is explain it. and with the insight offered by this explanation, we can say, "oh, yes, I can see how this could have come about. now I know what to look for/do to prevent similar tragedies in future"

Trump Voters Trust Ex-President More Than Their Family and Friends: Poll
I feel like we need some sort of legal protection for circumstances like this. no objective analysis of these people's behaviour would agree that they're acting rationally, and probably can't even be considered to be in their right minds. should we risk individuals so afflicted being able to determine the direction an entire country takes? do they pass out voting forms at mental institutions?

Space is 2D, right?
I think most species probably align themselves to either the galactic plane or prominent orbital plane of the local star system.
the "up" & "down" directions would be completely arbitrary, though. there's no reason to think everone would decide on a standard for those.
and species without that certain sense of appropriateness, or an overt dedication to logic, would likely not bother with a standard orientation. and especially when in orbit over a planet, I think everyone would orient their "down" towards the surface.

And yet I have to listen to my uncle rant and rave about immigrants and pretend it's okay.
pay some prostitutes to come to your thanksgiving dinner and debate your uncle on his ideas about immigrants.

cite your own paper, the one you are submitting, as a source.
just to keep things interesting, have each citation refer to another place in the text, which In turn cites another, then back to the original.
throw in citations of your professor themselves for things taken wildly out of context.
