I guess I now have to do a thread on shoes in ancient Mesopotamia in response to this (which happens to be from one of my favourite accounts).

I’m not an archaeologist, nor do I really know anything about shoes, but let’s go on this journey together.
can't believe this ancient mesopotamia shoe wearing ass said people need to dress up at the airport

Once you pass a tipping point, the energy requirements of dragging an entire system back to pre-tipping point conditions is way, way more than the energy expended that got you there in the first place. Now is no time to hesitate.
