Are economists considered physical scientists? I've read it as "social scientists are dumb except for economists". Which fits my prejudice for econo-brained less wrongers.

If I find a cool piece of driftwood and frame it, did I do art?

Kinda? I "found" a defective injection molding part, where the color of previous batch seeped in in a pattern that looks like a flower. It's really pretty. That there is no intention behind it makes it more interesting to me. It wasn't trivial to put it on a wall. I had to use nails and iron wire and then balance it. I am fine with not calling it art. On a scale 1-10 it definitely is not more than 2.

(emphasis mine)

Well, maybe start acting like it champ.

Who knows. The only thing that came to my mind reading that is the joke "statement made by utterly deranged". And then I realized there is no joke.

I am neither left nor right wing, as I’m a libertarian

Ah, yes, the classic "I'm not like the other girls" of politics.

It would be funny if someone was literally beating up servers with a wooden shoe.
