But the thing is, I didn't drag anything.

What shall we name the establishment?
If you don't show what might cause envy, then the hearts of the people won't be disturbed. Therefore, when governing [the country], the perfectly wise ruler makes the hearts [of his subjects] empty and their stomachs full. [His rule] weakens their will and strengthens their bones. It constantly strives to ensure that the people have no knowledge or passions, and those who have knowledge are unable to act.
While I was in the city of evil
Doesn't it remind you of anything?
stomachs - full
Or are you talking about the soulless ones right now?
Where do we end up when we save the world?

While I was in the city of evil, I acquired a couple of books on Taoism. I've been interested in this topic for a long time, but I didn't want to read it on a screen. Anyway, I decided to skim through it now, and there was one amusing paragraph:
Doesn't it remind you of something? It's a perfect match. You can immediately see the great wisdom in these words!
Знание некоторых закономерностей освобождает от изучения многих фактов.
Мечты сбываются рано или поздно, так или иначе.
The perfect sage puts himself last, and therefore he comes first. He neglects his own life, and therefore his life is preserved. Is this not because he neglects his own [interests]? On the contrary, [he acts] according to his own [interests].
Today, I went to pay my "blood tax," and a typical situation arose. Some woman tried to cut in line, claiming she needed to retake the test because the first one failed. Then, immediately after her, another woman appeared, saying her child was sick. So, I told them that everyone always has some kind of reason, but it doesn't mean their reasons are more important than others. At that point, some amazing woman (a different one) started telling me something about how some people have small reasons and others have big reasons (very interesting) and that they need to find something within themselves. Well, I also put her in her place, and a minute later, the line finally reached me. Suddenly, it turned out that a girl who had been standing there for some time had a temperature of +38. People were telling her to go ahead, to be next, and so on, but I still didn't let her cut in front of me. It's like in the CIS countries – sometimes you get lucky with teammates and no lag, and sometimes you don't. Probably, to those people, I seemed like a complete boor and far from a gentleman, but there's nothing I can do about it.
In my life, I've only given up my place in line twice: once to a very old woman who only needed a certificate stating that she wasn't registered with a specific doctor (and it was all done quickly), and the other time to a girl who had an emergency situation with uterine bleeding and a high risk of miscarriage, and the situation didn't depend on anyone's consent. In all other cases, everyone else could go to hell, but I don't act entitled either.

Then, immediately after her, another woman appeared, saying her child was sick. So, I told them that everyone always has some kind of reason, but they shouldn't assume their reasons are more important than others.

All tests are normal ✓
Chest X-ray is normal ✓
No bronchitis, and there never was ✗
(not a bad reroll)
In short, I'll try not to go to that female doctor again. I'll make sure not to repeat that mistake. And if I hadn't been so lazy, I would have filed a complaint and made sure that that bitch was at least docked part of her salary. It's good that I had enough sense not to poison myself with those hardcore antibiotics she prescribed, but it's a pity that there weren't enough of them for me to think to ask for the leaflet at the pharmacy and read it before buying.
