mircea_popescu: full ten years ago, at a wedding, where i was the godfather and took chet to be godmother, the ~other pair~ of godparents (romanians do this groom / bride big/small wedding godparents thing) were these average middle class 30something couple. and the dude finally got sufficiently drunk at the party so as to propose to her! assuring her of his protection and etcetera! in a slurred drunk nonsense, and with his fucking wife r

mircea_popescu: perhaps they found a golden cunt lying in the dirt, they might you know, take it home ? this can happen, no ? or if it can't happen then what were all the stories about ?!

mircea_popescu: and before that, on the trip over to castle, girly kneeling in the dirt by the side of the car in some rural parking lot attracted a... garbage truck! full of garbage men! who parked across and solicitously came over to inquire... whether she "ne

mircea_popescu: most recently yesterday : slut kicked out of car over specific failure, wept all the way home. lorry full of workers'd have cut her a deal just as we picked her up on the home stretch because well... she looks like the best hooker in town.

mircea_popescu: this may seem like a lengthy stretch, but in fact it quite is : linnaeus' own species only speciated about 3-400`000 years ago, the commitment contemplated here's five times what it took to have homo sapiens.

mircea_popescu: besides nonsense dust there;s also joy dust ; they could in principle balance out ; literature as a body of work (though mostly in french, somewhat in latin, defo not in english besides a few hundred pages) achieved that ; "computer programming" never did.

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-17#1936825 << there's a neglected effect here.

mircea_popescu: who's gonna miss a slightly geographically misplaced clone of ukraina, and why would they !?

mircea_popescu: dude's looking to start a castle of an ad-hoc republic of his own, in ~600 sq ft in the ghetto that's romania.

mircea_popescu: meanwhile in romanians-are-retarded lulz, “Tânăr frumos, curat, caut două fete pentru a le găzdui, ofer cazare gratis în apartament de 55 de metri pătraţi. Ofer poze în privat, cer igienă maximă şi discreţie pe măsură… Mai multe detalii, la telefon sau în privat.

mircea_popescu: rape's a lot better for the young woman than socialism for society.

mircea_popescu: what the fuck sorta rattle gotta be going on in some dude's brain to ACTUALLY BELIEVE what the fucking bankers are telling them, when engaged in a negotiation for the very thing the bankers make their money from. what, you thought all the advertising exists as a private gift from aliens ?! it's there BECAUSE these idiots rely on breaking down social communication to insert their shit in the gaps, wtf.

mircea_popescu: you'd think that some dude everyone was butthurt about being worth a billion back when bitcoin crossed 1k the first "time could afford to own" ; but that's all a red herring, SPECIFICALLY the dumb old mula red herring. it's not a matter of affording, it's a matter of not wanting to.

mircea_popescu: which is even the incentive to own real estate as an old man : you get a wider aperture, to meet the better cut of youth. supposing you're too retarded to apply numerical methods, nevertheless, this is what you'll be doing with your time : sifting through the pile of worthless goop spit out by [http://trilema.com/2015/quantum-mechanics-today-a-machine-to-turn-penis-projectile-vibrati

mircea_popescu: the hierarchy of consume-more-than-produce young females is very strictly 1. girls who found themselves a sponsor, who fucks them and pays their rent ABOVE 2. morons living in state-run orphanage. the SAME EXACT thing applies to boys too, just because you pay your own rent doesn't change the disposition in the field, doesn't make up down and down up.

mircea_popescu: not to mention the MOST important element, by far : as a young orphan (and if your dad dun have any duchies for you, you ARE an orphan, whether you admit it or not ; denial won't fix status) you WANT to get in the way of men-who-aren't-as-fucked-in-the-head-and-offensively-useless-and-retarded as that mongrel dog your drunk of a mother fucked to produce you.

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-16#1936660 << this is why, eg, greenwhich village even fucking happened in the 50s : rents were SO LOW a bunch of niggers getting together for an evening could sing themselves into the month's rent. it was CHEAPER to live there than in whatever alabama that spawned them. because back then the currency was strong, because etc.

mircea_popescu: there's more, and besideswhich a lot more to all of these foregoing parts, but holy hell... seriously, nobody ever thinks of things or what is the problem here !?

mircea_popescu: as a young orphan with potential, you keep to negotiable instruments. that's why the young men of florence who did get to be old men and successful enough as to buy up all the young cunts for gold to all the failures' despair went into trade rather than bureaucracy!

mircea_popescu: things flow the other way, your aging dad gives you the duchy of cornwall for you to hold on to for him, what the fuck is this ? and if dad ~dun have~ a duchy of cornwall large enough to keep you occupied, ~you leave~. and you spit on his head, too, because HE FAILED in life. because this was his fucking job : by the time the sons he made were old enough to do something useful with histime, he was supposed to have so much

mircea_popescu: buying "a house" from "the bank" is THE EXACT EQUIVALENT of giving your savings to your dad "to hold on to them for you". what the fuck, are you twelve ?

mircea_popescu: if you're a young man, YOU DO NOT BUY ILLIQUID, NON-NEGOTIABLE ANYTHING!!!! i don't mean, with money. i mean with anything. you have enough sense to keep your sexual relationships at will rather than get fucking married, fine, but the same applies throughout.

mircea_popescu: what the fuck, are you retarded ? if people who you don't know are making things for you, the name for the thing they're making is A TRAP

mircea_popescu: if you're not a fucking pimp, you don't buy real estate in your 20s. and if you are a pimp, you buy in fucking baltimore, you buy in the blighted downtown of detroit or philly or whatever the shit. NOT crap in suburbia ;

mircea_popescu: the only 20something who can reasonably buy real estate is... a pimp.

mircea_popescu: if you're making a living driving a car, you buy CARS. if you're making a living fixing cars, you buy forklifts and power tools.

mircea_popescu: IF you are a young man, and are producing more than consuming (if not, please follow the recipe for gender re-assignment, you don't belong here), you should save ~in capital goods~ specifically ~of your trade~.

mircea_popescu: if however the currency flags, real estate forthwith moves into emergency monetization role, meaning you want to short it as part of a triple currency play.

mircea_popescu: IF the problem is that the currency is shit (which is strictly what "rising rents" means : if rents are rising, THEREFORE the currency is shit. if urine is sweet, THEREFORE diabethes, no iffs or butts about it, these are NOT separable), then owning real estate is a very poor solution : real estate follows the currency secular trend

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936612 << you bought it ~as an inflation play~ ?! holy hell man, what the fuck's wrong with schooling there. inflation is the enemy of old men, what the fuck does a 20yo care, holy shit it's all backwards.

mircea_popescu: useless children spawned by useless women lodged in useless houses wherein a mancave fulla unusable paraphenalia of inutility are uselessly stored... what a fucking life. the only possible progression is towards tranquilizers, and on the basis of the cheapest being weed this theory'd indicate "a weed epidemic".

mircea_popescu: explains a lot, such as the "motorcycle" clubs consisting of fellows who buy motorcycle parts for an alleged motorcycle that has more in common with a tchotchke than an actual conveyance, IN THAT IT DOESN'T FUCKING MOVE

mircea_popescu: going from a fixed 53 bytes header to either 46 or more generally 34 seems a fabulous gain in any case.

mircea_popescu: "snsabot Logged on 2017-12-13 23:52:25 asciilifeform:" should become "snsabot 2017-12-13 [ossasepia] asciilifeform:" for all reads of a foreign log, and "snsabot 2017-12-13 asciilifeform:" for all reads of this here log.

mircea_popescu: then of course there's the hallucinatoria of the coy reflex, girl who's never taken a stroll nude down the busy street imagines it's gonna be the end of the world!!! much like the guy taking a stumble imagines everyone's watchin' an' judging, AS FUCKING IF they could unglue their eyes off the i[nca[pods long enough to notice their own fucking shoes are on fire.

mircea_popescu: (i dun even mean trinque specifically, the naive gent's a universal, anyone who never seriously thought about these things in these forms for these reasons five or ten years ago, meaning practically everyone.)

mircea_popescu: it's an ecology problem, very much of the cycle variety ; an' will have to be addressed, though in this particular case the corner naive gent's painted himself in is SO FAR OUT THERE, and there's SO MUCH GOD DAMNED PAINT surface, it'll take a while to unwind.

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936596 << i imagine the ~perceived~ pressure on nameless womanhood is quite immense, "omfg, what do i say, what if they make fun of me, they're gonna say i never installed linux from scratch as if it implied i'm half a dead man riding about on half a dead rabbit!!!"

mircea_popescu: and speaking of http://trilema.com/2019/concedo-hoc/#comment-131427 : i'm pretty sure i read trinque referring to the laughable playdates of the menalone as "wankastery" / "wankasteries", as a transparent adjustment of monastery to more truthfully reflect its real function
