What's the most important thing my children will ever do?

Have children?

Like, okay, and the most important thing their children will do to be have children.

So, okay, so the highest calling is to reproduce and reproduction is the goal in and of itself.

Like it's the highest thing is to fulfill the biological imperative, to take this half formed thing that comes out of a woman

like that you better hope whatever meets you on the other side is gonna help because we're helpless when we're born.

So we're gonna take this half-formed thing, we're gonna turn it into something that's self-sustaining and that fulfills the biological and can reproduce itself.

Great, okay, so that's it, that's the goal?

That's why we're here?

That's the whole thing?

Like, that's crazy to me.

So then why have we structured it that if you say anything other than, well, the day my children were born was the greatest day, my children are my greatest accomplishment, that that,

is somehow profanity.

If I was to say, yeah, my greatest accomplishment was like becoming so good at my craft and feeling such success at it.

What about being a father?

Yeah, I love being a father.

It's really, really fun.

It was like a really cool thing I got to do and I'm doing and it's great.

And I learned a lot about myself from it.

And I think I added some value to the world by these two wonderful men that I helped build.
