mircea_popescu: the whole "downshifting" subculture is headed for a serious collision with the bureaucratic tradition. from the etsy "textile creator" and "vintage" "reclaimer" all the way to lazy bums generally there's this entire "we don't need no exit paths wtf are fire extinguishers 50 to the room is good man because we can't just walk up to a girl and tell her to strip and dance". serious fire hazard to say the least.
mircea_popescu: yeah, anyone wanna run a tmsr tshirts bidniss ? preferably someone who isn't a lazy math guy who pretends to lie to self and call it "downshifting" or w/e.
asciilifeform: discussion involving 'downshifting' is waste of my time and of everybody else's.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, that may be, but i do not waste most of my money downshifting people. in general i waste it upshifting people.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` srsly ? downshifting, hanging out with obscure bands and whatnoit making posters all day. whjat else ?
