mircea_popescu: a
ton,
ten, a
thousand, whatever it
takes for organ failure.
mircea_popescu: much like crustaceans can't be helped - if you remove
the
things
that kill
them
they'll just grow
to death.
mircea_popescu: this is not a solvable problem.
the better
the
tools get,
the more i'll shit on
them
to
the point i can't recall wtf it all was - which is ~the only limit of human mental process.
mircea_popescu: pretty sure it was about
the shithead "artists" on avenida florida.
mircea_popescu: the point was girl inquiring why contrariwise
to expectation,
the longer
they've been at it
the worse
they are.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform was
this discussion re street performers and why
they suck, street
takes all and keeps no-one so ends up selecting for shit.
mircea_popescu: the future is not
too distant where i'll be spending my whole day with
that!
mircea_popescu: mno, it's how you do it. marx is lulzy. zig zigglar is lulzy.
this is shop
talk.
mircea_popescu: plox
to re-read my seminal "how
to become a whore - start in highschool" piece.
mircea_popescu: that's whoredom in
the sense kids coding php when needing money
to go out is programming.
mircea_popescu: your idea of a whore sounds a lot more like gypsy family - where
the man
turns out
the woman whenever hard up for cash.
mircea_popescu: a whore is an independent woman, who lives by her network, and
takes care of it.
mircea_popescu: it has
the unintended side effect of locking smart bois into local minimums, also, and eventually spawns some variation of cccp/usg, but still. on
the basic-est level, it prevents caveman who killed a mammooth from
tearing out his spleen.
mircea_popescu: notrly. laziness, as a behaviour, principally serves as an insurance against exactly
this.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
that's how preteens operate, and
the slower ones at
that.
mircea_popescu: who knew, my dislike of artists
turns out
to be
the same general dislike of insufficiently whorish behaviour.
mircea_popescu: EXACTLY
that. "this windfall proves
that my passive, mystical windfall capture works well, and
that
there shall be more such in
the future".
mircea_popescu: but re
the "she just assumed
that next assignment will "find" her just as
this one did", i actually knew A LOT of
these back when i was doing "business major/design/advertising" 20somethings in romania.
mircea_popescu: which may explain why so much of
their verbiage is dedicated
to variations of
that peculiar statement
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, actually
that might be
the confusion made
there in fact: despite claiming precisely
that
they do NOT sell bagels, artists assume
that
they precisely sell bagels
mircea_popescu: there is no such
thing as "good" outside of who your patrons are.
mircea_popescu: bagel is seller's market. artistry is buyer's market. not
the same
thing.
diana_coman: well, I assumed she would know what follow-up is basically, which is quite an assumption really; I wouldn't be surprised if she simply considered
that next assignment will "find" her just as
this one did
☟︎ mircea_popescu: no wonder natality is down, who
the fuck has all
the rope.
mircea_popescu: and bondage
the only hope at continuing it once started ?
mircea_popescu: if
this is how her head works
then rape's her only chance at starting a family
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> yeah, and she got paid, and
then...
that's
the last i heard of her. somehow
this is sensible, starving arists gets commission fall from sky, does 0 follow-up. <- she does drawings, not following-ups ("eeek, business, work!")
mircea_popescu: anyway. artists. were busy while
the world was made,
then starved.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at
the other end of
the scale,
trish whatshername,
the oglaf chick, wouldn't commission. i dunno, i guess
they must be rich in australia or w/e.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yeah, and she got paid, and
then...
that's
the last i heard of her. somehow
this is sensible, starving arists gets commission fall from sky, does 0 follow-up.
mircea_popescu: i
tried
to attract a coupla [chix] but very strange behaviour also.
mircea_popescu: pity
the only illustrator went berserk last month, could have had a comic on your hands here.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: he'd better be fucking good at it, because historically mp doesn't
tolerate ineptitude in fathers all
too well.
mircea_popescu: the amount of divergence from sanity does not concern me nearly as much as
the direction.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform apparently
the world of
the future consists of "12 dudes
to kill and a hippy chick everyone wants
to bang"
mircea_popescu: not
to mention
the only female is wanted alive. why
the fuck is it
that
these cheesecunted lesbos with delusions of creativity will make a female heorine
that gotta kill dudes only ?
mircea_popescu: to kill public figure living on home planet with "personal security detail", 27k ;
to kill random psychopath killer, 35k.
to buy suit of entirely impervious armor, 8.7k. woman is bitching about wage slavery.
mircea_popescu: the pricing structure for
this comedic silkroad
thing is ridoinculous.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform gotta appreciate how short
the id numbers are in 2112
tho. i guess conan musta wonan.
mircea_popescu: (pro
tip for
time
travellers : go
to future, see if F ids have
tits, if not, can sell mpex i must've failed at some point.)
BingoBoingo: Anyways,
there is plenty of history concerning
the elderly living vicariously
through
the adventures of
those around
them.
mircea_popescu: also F ids of
the future will have
tits in pic if i have any say in it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform why is
this cartoon bitch short ? ffs. at least
the fantasy characters
they could go
to
the
trouble of making 1.78 or something.
mircea_popescu: so by
this
theory he's going
to butcher some black dudes one of
these days ?
BingoBoingo: People cope with
their elderlyness in different ways
phf: He seems
to kind of enjoy. All
that Conan ethos
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> beseides, he has fambly. <<
They live out in
the country some distance, he discourages
them from joining him on
the plantation
mircea_popescu: and yes, ftr,
the idiocies sprouting out of vorheees re
the shapeshift
thing smell of parallel construction a mile away.
mircea_popescu: "i'm
too old
to do
things, i'll just stick with what i know".
mircea_popescu: no woman comes in
this world with a promise
that
the fruit of her cunt will amount
to anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform let
them grow up on wood spirits and stevia soup for all i care.
