mircea_popescu: strongly relies on implicit wot enforced by "not give tards net access"
mircea_popescu: in droves. and for other starters, they got tits, and i got pliers, and if they're annoying i twist nipples.
mircea_popescu: i find fetlife sluts are about 10kx more interesting than hikikomori bois a la whatever set we've been contemplating, from curtis yarvin to rms.
mircea_popescu: anyway, tbh i can't find a use for email. if it's not a trilema-article-and-link nor a p.bvulpes-and-link then why isn't it in #trilema.
mircea_popescu: they're involved in about half the efforts to make the net a shittier, slower, stinkier, buggier place.
mircea_popescu: iirc ben_vulpes was working on something like that prior to pizarro adventure.
mircea_popescu: oh i see, need something to warn about missing license headers. now it all makes sense.
mircea_popescu: im trying to remember wtf "linting" even is supposed to be.
mircea_popescu: first thing, you know, slavegirl comes across is this plain "you're entirely fucking worthless". pons asinorum, as it were.
mircea_popescu: and the wives, too, strike me as the products of people who think women valuable.
mircea_popescu: it's not much of a solution, to wit it doesn't even concinve anyone, but at least it doesn't include serfs' faces and boots and mud.
mircea_popescu: so modern democracy came up with "kids are SO VERY VALUABLE!!!" it's worth having some. and then took it to heart, hence all the "college debt" mess of financial misdirection, and all the "you can do anyuthing" mess of intellectual misdirection.
mircea_popescu: in the end the problem is this : "modern democracy" ran into the same problem all societies ever ran into : explaining to men why they should bother fathering. the traditional manner was, "you must have an heir, to keep on your traditions stepping on serf faces", and unacceptable.
mircea_popescu: they're not what they are, in the sense of, history. they are what they could be. see ?
mircea_popescu: everyone believes all coulds all the time. proof to the contrary is dismissed under some pretext or other.
mircea_popescu: because why ? because you'll just make up classes to explain it away as need be ?
mircea_popescu: having met my fair share of "could be singers" mothers of girls.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ok, but interchangeable parts... this transistor ~COULD~ be part of that radio, OR of this one ?
mircea_popescu: this could business... it cuts quite a far swathe. 1518 dairy ~couldn't~ believe she could sit on duchess couch, take duke cock. COULD NOT. doesn't fit in there, like with ducks. in the immortal words of a certain mammie, "it ain't fittin', it just ain't fittin'".
mircea_popescu: to be there you gotta believe you could be there, and there we go.
mircea_popescu: the proof is in the pudding : if one doesn't believe that could, one couldn't possibly find himself in north america. because... COULD NOT.
mircea_popescu: and yes, there are. everyone buys it, as the necessary prerequisite of being "in".
mircea_popescu: the whole "hundred trillions" in derivatives, and everything else, hang from this "could".
mircea_popescu: yes, but if there's structure there can't be equality. and if there can't be equality, it then follows that ~not everyone could be anything they wanted to~. that could is currently underpinning the whole world economy, as the jesus nut of it all.
mircea_popescu: pro tip : to pubescent eyes, sexual congress readily translates to "daddy beating up mommy", as a factual matter. and to similarily infantile minds, what i do to my slavegirls is you know, "abuse" or however they put it.
mircea_popescu: he will let go, by self "will" or "wise" words or baseball bat.
mircea_popescu: since we're doing classics, consider eugenie grandet, and all the piles balzac especially wrote about control transfer in belle epoque france.
mircea_popescu: why should inept creditors have anything ? money doesn't belong with old farts anymore than it belongs with disused wives, it's just not how money works.
mircea_popescu: yes, but... "There isn't, nor is there going to be a way, manner, instrument or device through which to protect the passive from the active. "
mircea_popescu: just because "london sunk" doesn't mean 1mn black tards can now pay an extra twenty each.
mircea_popescu: the notion that you can fleece the sheep according to how much wool you "need" (calculated through a complicated abstraction designed to hide the arbitrarity, of course).
mircea_popescu: nah, the thing that sunk the last remnant of "america" in the 2000s was the "adjustable interest".
mircea_popescu: hence all the nonsense that has, and will, blow up in their faces. "debt tranching, allowing you to remove the debtor entirely from consideration !!! " "does this actually work ?" "our gauss copula indicates that it definitely will work for as long as it does!"
mircea_popescu: if people do anything, it's storytelling. what happened ? and so on.
mircea_popescu: french cut down mercenary crossbowmen for the fault of having not provided them with dry storage for the tension element ?
mircea_popescu: but do you recall the case of the misfortunate doria charge ?
mircea_popescu: consider the matter properly : so girl has put capers! in pot of coffee. because can't tell the difference between cardamom or capers, or because too tired, or mischevious, or fucked in the head or you call it, whatever. here's now a nice old style pot (anyone besides me sill use these, btw ? the tronconic items ?) with over a liter of capercoffee made out of SEVEN heaped spoonfulls of the world's best coffee, irreproducible
mircea_popescu: and to bring it home, if anyone hanged every time something blew up unexpectedly i'd be sitting here in an otherwise empty #trilema-gallows bemoanign my sad fate.
mircea_popescu: just how much of an agent to make the principal in the principal-agent relationship is the problem. because obviously if the principal were an actual agent there'd be no agents.
mircea_popescu: let's set out the dilemma properly, for future readers. 1. if the creditor is not an agent, then why would he get anything ? i mean beyond the usg-istic / southparkian "aaaannd... it's gone" ? and 2. if the creditor is an agent, then why does the borrower carry all the responsibility ?
mircea_popescu: phf this sounds great, and works fine for as long as you stick to pulp fiction (this ~particular~ narrowness of viewport is why dumas never counted as an important writer). try and step outside of the threemusketeering and see if it can still be meaningfully applied.
mircea_popescu: on the other, the republic, attempting something rather in the vein of "the life among the meaningless is not worth living, so whether meaning-izing works or doesn't, it'll be done."
mircea_popescu: well, you'd have to evaluate things. that's the fundamental dispute here. on one hand, the pantsuit, "ourdemocracy", whatever, "progressivists" how oyu'd call them (they'd preferred to be called "modern man", with an implicit hint that the modern part is spurious and they've always been all there ever was etc), which holds a strict "nothing can be meaningful, like, ever" stance.
mircea_popescu: "progress" renders all evaluation meaningless as a prerequisite.
mircea_popescu: rather the problem is that you can't have "progress" and responsible credit. gotta pick one.
mircea_popescu: then and only then, and so on. the wonders of the police state rediscovered anew for each new crop of idiots.
mircea_popescu: nah, as late as 1960 it meant "end of life" in that you became a nigger and had to sell ("voluntarily", heh) your suburban home
mircea_popescu: note how it was also the law of the land, even as late as 60s.
mircea_popescu: anythign but life imprisonment for default on debts is rank nonsense.
mircea_popescu: they get the shareholder's house and "all the money" and move on to a new "cheif executive officer" set.
mircea_popescu: really, the civil code should be upgraded to include ~divorce~ for female companies.
mircea_popescu: you know, it's the height of unfairness that items like gawker have to be ~sold~.
mircea_popescu: he contorts that ugly nigger face like it's propelling space ships.
mircea_popescu: willie dynamite is a great 70s flick btw. 100% of all "romantic comedies" acting and actors packed in one dude there/
mircea_popescu: but obviously, she'll either end it or turn it into a queendom, what the fuck CAN she do.
mircea_popescu: "what the fuck is a queen to do with a kingdom" is not contemplated here.
mircea_popescu: it's entirely ~male~ fantasy. give the queen the kingdom, maybe that way the messengers will stop streaming towards your location ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is why you know and how you know she didn't come up with it.
mircea_popescu: perhaps if "he gives her all the money" this could occur ?
mircea_popescu: the driver, in that later case, is transparently oedipian, "just make everything like it was before". (literally, he says this). and i suspect that's why this thing even exists -- one superlative realisation of the autistic boy's refusal of the world is re-entrance into the mother's cunt.
mircea_popescu: cated floor washer, and some others) says, at the peak ? "i want you to have all the money". what's rose say in
http://trilema.com/2015/the-war-of-the-roses/ ? yep, that's right, "you should have all the money". originally started as a blacksploitation item (and here's our tie-in with "ubuntu, the african philosophy") -- what's willie dynamite say (to the fat, middle-aged "social worker", no less) ? "i want you to have all th
