"average DM has 3 regular D&D players a month" factoid actualy just statistical error. average DM has 0 players per year. D&D Cocks, who lives in Renton & plays with 30-40 people regularly, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
Quarks are a food, not a drink.
Even your quote acknowledges the quarks are owned by the nobility, (king Mark in this case).
Yes. They are so clearly and obviously different that trying to quantify or qualify the way in which they are different would be doing both ideas a disservice.
That's the trick. The gases are no more noble than the rest, all are complicit. What I'm saying is that all are part of a system of elemental nobility. This may sound similar to your idea that all are created equal, but it's actually completely different for reasons I think are self evident.
But created by what? From what? The components are only created equal in that they all support the same oppressive system. Will you ever have the opportunity to produce an element? Will I? No, it is forever denied to us. Any false equality is in service to a very and very rigid clear hierarchy.
The stars can be traced directly from the big bang, with fusions using resources sourced from the big bang. They were not self made in any respects. Even if you ignore their origins, they collect vast quantities of matter and concentrate it in one heavenly body. Judge them based on their behaviour.
That's where you're wrong. Most of these "equal" fusions occurred over a hundred years ago, using resources that are out of reach of your everyday person. Big Bang still maintains its historical monopoly on where elements are produced.
