Do they want vigilantism?

Thanks! To your last point, I see any meaningful choice as fundamentally deliberative. If competing actions have no discriminating features (over which to deliberate), e.g., by being equally bad or good, then your decision would be arbitrary. Acting at random isn’t a deliberative procedure (evaluative, judgment-oriented, rule-bounded, normative, moral, or praiseworthy) and therefore not a meaningful choice.

It does, actually. Ice cream can put you at grave risk of brain freeze.

If you want to be philosophical about it, consider this: If there weren’t pros and cons, you wouldn’t be making a choice at all. (You would be acting arbitrarily.)

And even breathing has downsides. For instance, it means I must continue sharing the planet with you. This is terrible news. (Also my nose is cold.)

Congrats, you’re sane. Most entertainment media is objectively bad. That’s just statistically undeniable. Unless you think everyone is a good writer and storyteller.

That’s… life. You’ve never not made a lesser-of-two-evils choice. It’s metaphysically impossible.

Isn’t that literally life?

It’s every single choice these people have ever made and they still don’t get it.

Rolex. Evincing pathological narcissism or psychopathy.

Yes, Europeans at the time were very short.

Except in the land of Lilliputians. Also there’s nothing wrong with being short, as you’re implying by taking offense at a statistical fact.

So he wasn’t tiny, he was just very short. Gotcha.

That’s expensive. Rotten eggs will do.
