My creative process is quite slow. I hear melodies in my head while I'm washing the dishes and I allow my subconscious to do the work. ↗

Libertarians argue that no normal adult has the right to impose choices on other normal adults, except in abnormal circumstances, such as when one person finds another unconscious and administers medical assistance or calls an ambulance. ↗
