Summary

Your brain does things without your permission. It is doing things right now that you did not choose; it's making choices you don't agree with... and it does it all without you even realizing it.

1:51.8

come up to a restaurant, to a cafe, to a diner, to whatever it might be, I'm noticing that there's

1:57.0

always a list of things that they offer. There's always snacks or drinks or whatever
