49/ Another winter spent splitting wood for neighbors for pay, and sawing wood to make your own house. That $20 is mostly gone: bought a saw, a pail, a froe, some candles, 10 lbs of nails. Spring comes. Rent the ox and plow again. $20 all gone. Plant your seed corn.

60/ And has feminism convinced a lot of women to be whores and sleep around? Yes. Does automation make it hard to earn a living bolting wheels onto cars? Yes. Are you the first generation in the history of the world to have it hard? No.pic.twitter.com/GNC373017G

63/ Congrats, you're comparing a picture of an 18 yo midshipman to a 47 yo me. I am, in fact, ~30 years older than Heinlein was at the time of that picture. You have absolutely DESTROYED my point that hard work pays benefits. Listen to the applause.https://twitter.com/Logo_Daedalus/status/1109183166043049984 …

66/ No, actually, older Heinlein was a bit of a weirdo perv. I'm just pointing out that if you want to say "lol you look stupid", you should use a good calibration standard.https://twitter.com/Logo_Daedalus/status/1109185974116982785 …

67/ You also seem to be under the mistaken belief that I get my sense of self worth from the fact that I wrote two books. I don't. Writing is a minor sideline for me. I'm an engineer, a husband, a hobby farmer, and a Catholic. Writing is a $7.50/hour hobby.

75/ I'm listening to these NEETs bitch and moan about hard work. I'm a pansy compared to my dad. He's a pansy compared to HIS dad. That guy fought his way through the Pacific Campaign as a USMC grunt, in a unit that took over 100% casualties, then returned home to work >

76/ as an iron worker. Climbing high steel every day, 12 months a year, riveting and bolting. Building bridges, building NYC. Bought a house for his wife and his 4 kids. Died on the job around age 50. If he heard this NEET bitching, he'd slap that attitude off their faces.

77/ If you want to put in average (or sub average) work, then content yourself with average (or sub average) results. No skin off my nose. https://twitter.com/apofcam/status/1109189649052794880 …
