Whatever

my students say they don't care if they don't have free will

they feel free they say and that's good enough for them yes it is causality is fine with us they say as long as we don't notice it

and I say well think about your desires consider if they are just brute facts about you about you unadorned or if what you desire may well be what's been made available to you what you've been presented with as an option to love to want to lust for

oh they say their eyes bigger than ever oh

Thus spoke the Dickinsonian oracle:

There is a finished feeling
Experienced at Graves -
A leisure of the Future -
A Wilderness of Size
(E. Dickinson, from 1092)
