The wheel is definitely newfangled. People have been using renewable sunlight, wind and water for millions of years as well as using pharmaceutical plants for about that long too. The wheel is definitely the newcomer.

Fuck wheels and round things in general.

Do you know how most people are hurt when they are walking across a busy street? Wheels. What about infant deaths? Wheels. The Russia/Ukraine war wouldn't even be happening now if it wasn't for.... You guessed it... Wheels.

Everyone can take their fancy round things and stick 'em where they used to put nice and sharp pointy things.
