mircea_popescu regularly ignores nonsense on "absolute truth" "respect" "consent" etc blablabla from assorted girlies. they handle it just fine, in fact all they're really looking for is some kind of release from it. if there's a place where things can be discussed without reference to the pantsuit mental infrastructure they're perfectly happy to.
mircea_popescu: if you spend your time engaging their idiocy on its own terms you'll just be sadder than you need to be.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, possibly the problem was you engaged the matter. imo the correct approach to whatever the fuck nonsense they sprout is simply no and moving back to discussing actually important things.
mircea_popescu: but it seems to me talking to the pantsuit youth ~in groups~ is a complete waste of time. from one end to the other, fetlife yielded via private messaging ; okcupid did not yield through public and visible
group dominance, i dunno the whys and wherefores but they evidently ignore all group anything.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, honestly, a pointed "no" works wonders. you don't have to either cater or appear to cater to their worldview or expectations. they take that just fine.
mircea_popescu: maybe it's an item on the cattle survival list we don't know about, "never act on any public leads". nfi.
mircea_popescu: the girls' PRIVATE commlines however, those were snowed in. it's not that they didn't wanna ; it's that for some (yet uncomprehended) reason they... couldn't just fucking come, not in a group, i dunno.
mircea_popescu: consider this example : at burlesque competition (writing an article about this that'll fill in details) i told organizer i'm giving free vodka to the contestants after the show, and spread the word around. everyone was excited, yet nobody came.
mircea_popescu: the one other element is that i suspect formalism has a significant destructive effect.
mircea_popescu: pretty much everything worth having in this world can well be had for the cost of a cup of coffee well brewed.
mircea_popescu: so put up ad, you know, "work with me on X". even if you don't go to local uni to send you students for practice, kids may well show up.
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing as human industry that does not benefit from company ; the strange behaviours of baruch spinoza and such are 1. not a tradition but an accident and 2. something the old masters ~regretted~ as an unfortunate result of misguided youth, wasn't their fucking option and choice.
mircea_popescu: why eschew the pleasant way this always worked for some ford-esque atrocity of a chaplin parody ?!
mircea_popescu: back when chet was an adult woman, decade or so before we met, she ran the only old style kitchen in her neighbourhood. local girlies came to hang out and learn how to cook, her house was always full. my cousin i had hannah live with for a coupla months did the same thing, she had two hgirls one year apart of her own and a half dozen daytime live-ins.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: even without the "oh, bad things in future". it has to change because it's unhealthy. why do eight hour stretches locked in kitchen/orchard/garden whatever when you could be doing twelve hours of relaxed work and play ?
mircea_popescu: "somebody" deciding "you are stupid" or whatever the fuck else on the basis of your own fucking work is exactly as interesting as the fly-meaning of flies buzzing by.
mircea_popescu: it ~seems there might be~, in all sorta ways manners and "do we still have to DO this". it's an illusion. idiocy simply gets filtered out at 0 cost and that;s that.
mircea_popescu: there's deeply ingrained anti-sharing culture leading to
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1921077 style nonsense. i have derived no detriment from my cock being publicly visible ; my sluts derived no detriment from their whatever exposure. there is, literally and strictly, no drawback whatsoever to communication.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: well, the literate process can help there as anywhere.
mircea_popescu: talk to some kids in between working in the orchard, there's no way out of this.
mircea_popescu: yurp belongs to the scrap iron man today. whether homebrew gangster or
imported, "the system" has utterly failed.
mircea_popescu: there's not a single nice guy with great sense of humor anywhere in sight. i suppose they're all at the library by choice.
mircea_popescu: the entire floor of this very comfortable hotel i occupy (well, the lesser rooms, i got the nicer corner place) is occupied by large dudes in the tell-tale bodybuilding+tattoos color scheme and their obvious hookers. and they give me either upset or terrified glares whenever we pass, i suppose depending on whether my girls happen to be dressed ("hey, how come he has MULTIPLE?!?! unfare!!!") or not and i'm wielding a paddle o
mircea_popescu: "there is no such fish as truite in french". what, it was my accent ?
mircea_popescu: they've already been attrited out of most anything anyone'd ever want anyway.
mircea_popescu: anyway. my point here is : attrition already happened 80% of the way. the difference between frenchgirl i recall from 1992 and frenchgirl i perceive in 2019 is staggering.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, apparently. cuz the menu is like the limit of existence now or something, the "company policy". wanna queue for cabs ?
mircea_popescu: and then i say "yes, but i'm rich, i don't care what you think of anything" and she giggles. and "you can't order things not on the menu" and "don't you need a ticket ?" and "you have to stay here, there's nowhere else" and etcetera.
mircea_popescu: from under the well worn tshirt, washed more times than i dipped my cock in woman, from under the "cut up" jeans to mask the wear and tear, from inside the tentsheet shoes only the poorest of the poro kids wore during the LEAN communist years, holding the smashed smartphone ("where did you drop that ?" "which time ?"), they sprout forth the tenents of the idiocy that fucked them.
mircea_popescu: and for this obvious sadness, they still go about pretending about "rights" and "no truth exists" and whatnot tenets of the idiocy that got them there, slaves on the continent their forefathers fought etc.
mircea_popescu: the average girly that a) looks like anything you'd fuck and b) isn't already outright working the streets has never in her life had in her hand, as discretionary funds, the cost of a decent meal. this is europe, EXACTLY like africa. minus the infrastructure, they're exactly the same place. exactly the same people anyway.
mircea_popescu: that's the funny thing. for all the pretense, they are ALREADY the rats living among the ruins of a "distopian future". what fucking distopian ? in the rare cases i'm not the only one in the restaurant, i'm the only one who can afford to pay the bill. everyone else's there with mechanised ious and mommy allowances etc.
mircea_popescu: you have no fucking idea jusy how utterly POOR yurpeans are.
mircea_popescu: to be honest, i also much prefer the killing of idiots over their redemption. i'd much rather built a machine gun nest in a village than a school.
mircea_popescu: dumbest thing in the world, entering into paywell-ing competitions with idiots.
mircea_popescu: it'll continue to "pay" forever. back when the brits were machine gunning the zulu "warriors", zulu warrioridiocy was also "paying too well"
mircea_popescu: so as to actually do something with themselves, as opposed to continuing with idiocy ad idem.
mircea_popescu: the idea was that all the idle fuckwits making up some portion of the 10 billion bipedal cows befouling god's green earth for no purpose and to no benefit will drop their idiotic ways and present themselves for service.
mircea_popescu: in other unexpected sideways minutia, i'm drinking from this bottle of... jurajska. woda z glebi jury. jurov want a picture ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, would you say the share system of compensation is rather a help or rather a hindrance in acquiring new writers for the qntra ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the many blessings of travel, you get to debug a random pile of strange every short time interval with arbitrarily limited toolsets. and people enjoy this! people who don't even get to play with the bodies of the local choicer bits. incomprehensible.
mircea_popescu: motherfucker, this terminal is eating the final portion of my lines, when they break in two parts.
mircea_popescu: there's two ways to organize human activity : either you sit and think about right and wrong, or else you pick the next-easiest thing. the former produces the republic, the latter produces the empire, with its sorted "market" of "bids" of easiness. these flow NECESSARILY from that choice. that's all, the economic underpinning of the divide is simply and wholly there.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how to get this point across moreso than this, and the previous installment, and the ones before that. but somehow it's gotta be gotten across, because apparently it's the one place everything hangs from.
mircea_popescu: you realise, do you, that thing exists EXACTLY as ~teh default lifeflow for minds incapable of examining their lifeflow~. that's what it fucking IS, that is the definition, "the empire is what happens to cattle, incapable of reflection".
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-01#1921150 << even if you do them monthly, or quarterly, or whatever works well for you, they're just as good. the sticking point isn't that omg, gotta be every half hour. the sticking point's that you, you first and foremost, WANT the fucking written record so you can reason about your own history meaningfully. rather than treat it as an inestimable, unevaluable and otherwordly gift from the g
☝︎ mircea_popescu: now can we be done taxiing in a circle and start taking off already.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1921072 << you know ? that chick was manticoring back before ~most everyone ever bitcoined, and exactly zero rubbed off. instead we're having "how dumb is hanbot!!!" festivals, because god forbid learn something from the one woman that knows shit none of us do. how about instead be so impressed with this one weird trick!
☝︎ mircea_popescu: we're watching tv, in the sense i'm to sit here and nod my head while he does the voices and jumps up and down through the livingroom.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1921070 << ever been on a date with one of those weird fucks who want to drive you there, cook the meal, feed it to you while holding the glass and then perhaps even fuck you (while you're passed out, preferably, so they get to move your legs and maybe even your lips for you with their own hand) ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: god fucking forbid you look at the damned things in the face, you might die or something.
mircea_popescu: you're all sitting on the exact same piles of self-righteousness, too, it's something beyond parody. one dude's got the "suave exclusive" pile of veblens and is snickering at you other two, while the other dude's got his "truly truthful" pile o' divines an' is snickering a tyou other two, and you've got your single-path-impredictable-and-unreviewable theorems and snickering at them two. cuz nobody really understands the real
mircea_popescu: there's exactly no difference, you understand this, between an overgrown child who's tying polished stones to his wrist/ankle/whatever, an overgrown child who's spending all his time in bound fascination over his own erections, and an overgrown child who simply can not fucking organize, predict and review his own activity.,
mircea_popescu: this being the fundamental point here : if you're gonna stay the same, no need to even wait for me to rate whatever. just fucking walk away. the point of republican life is meaningful change, not herpderp, my own insanity is so much better than pete_d's or whoevers, notwithstanding they're both made of exactly same infantile substance.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1921068 << it's the same thing as two years ago, and i fear two years from now too : 1. write "i am going to X" ; then either 2a. do x or else 2b-1. explain why you didn't do x AND 2b-2 explain what you're going to do differently, ie, CHANGE, about yourself, so as not to be in the b branch again ; and then later 3. review how well 2b-2 has been working out for you and CHANGE SOME MORE.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: i am not concerned so much by whether fg made back or not.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1920999 << yes, eventually someone else will have to do all the things you do not do. you know this going in, or rather, coming out into this world. entirely unrelated and fucking uninteresting sidepoint, of the caliber of appending "a=a" to all sorta technical manuals.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, so be the first, what fucking difference does it have. life can not proceed without modles ?
mircea_popescu: who the fuck cares what anyone enjoys. i got the topless starlets to enjoy me out the wazoo.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, i know you don't. do you know how i know ? because you can't produce the items! if you had them, you'd have been having them by now.
mircea_popescu: you whine about how windows computers don't tag memory and processes properly, but your own fucking head... doesn't tag either time or activity, is the idea here ?
mircea_popescu: human industry is this ~deliberate~ approach to things.
