phf: that seems like central/eastern europe thing though. almost unheard in u.s. (except i guess among diehard stormfront folk), and looks like not as much in western western europe either

BingoBoingo: In other failed states: Illinois legislature is in "special session" to avoid getting booted from lottery treaty
js-of-mp: i was recently shocked by this in discovering at a gathering that out of six people present five actually knew trilema, none would have mentioned it ever.
a111: Logged on 2017-06-22 19:55 erlehmann: tourists are worse in every way
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: funny what turn out to be motivating factors, eh?
a111: Logged on 2017-06-22 20:00 erlehmann: berlin is special, partially because both east and west used it to show off.
js-of-mp: man, you think bakersfield's not special ? just ask whatever fried out zombies you can get to not drool for half a minute.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Seriously. Only time Legislature and this governor have been able to come to terms was when legislature as sqashed between governor and lottery treaty organization
phf: it's a big millennial thing, not to be perceived as a tourist. gets almost comedic, where every travel story i heard from a certain type of white girl involves "staying at the house of this local family" or being invited to "this bar that only locals go to" etc.
trinque: "pls I have no in-group, so lonely"
js-of-mp: phf: and you know right then and there that in any practical terms (ie, slurping some local cock) her trip was a total waste.
phf: i usually counter that with "lol no hilton in the area, i only stay at hilton" etc. etc.
js-of-mp: ask her about smoking the cock instead.
js-of-mp: "whenever i go places, i fuck half local. that eases the pain of staying at whatevefr place is both good quality and a good deal, whatever it may be called."
phf: that is the unspoken part isn't it
js-of-mp: THAT is what she's saying. that you shouldn't think her an unmarrigeable loose woman, beacause even though she is tinted by monkey juice, it only went in her shoes.
js-of-mp: wtf was that film with the whote chick in indochina fucking some local dude ? hm
erlehmann: eh, it's not always unspoken. one woman told me that one reason she fucks around would be that “it's hard to find intimacy while travelling any other way”. because, you know, fucking strangers is a real intimate thing!
js-of-mp: erlehmann: she means a very specific thing. "it's hard to get cuddled any other way".
js-of-mp: because yes, carring her blankie is ridiculous, large teddies don't pack well, and not that many men tolerate her presence
js-of-mp: phf: but of course the real barb in there is the "half" part. as erlehmann aptly pinpoints.
erlehmann: later i realized that while i gave her an orgasm, i should have given her a hug. i'm so mean!
js-of-mp: but anyway, next time spank her lightly and graciously permit her to apologize for it.
erlehmann: i think nowadays no fucks would be given. X Y problem.
erlehmann: looking for hugs? don't act slutty so you get some. there are other ways.
phf: i didn't get the "half" part
phf: oh oh "half local" meaning half local/lalf my own

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-22#1673528 << this is a fine statement of the nonsense. "once market is saturated technologically, 1. invent alternative nonsense criteria 2. let nonsense criteria run sensible criteria out of market". this is how cars work, for instance : the best car ever made were the german items mod 2000s. there is not, nor can t
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2017-06-22 20:04 asciilifeform: the second stage of this cancer is when market begins to segment SOLELY based on orc proximity -- i.e. your house costs moar, or less, ~strictly based on how much orc you are willing to tolerate in everyday life, and not, say, based on size, or whether it is made from brick or shitboard
js-of-mp: here be better cars made. so they started with the whole "emissions" crap, exact equivalent of the orc thing in renting. now all you can get are the same b-m-double-shoe bullshits, except they're toyotanissan.
js-of-mp: phf: if i fuck half local, it means the other half is what ? how did it get there ? omfg if i already have the hugs what am i doing... headxplody.
js-of-mp: erlehmann: this btw is patently stupid / entirely false redditism. there's no "act less slutty be more successful / happier / godblesseder" in nature. it is 100% th ebyproduct of ustards being retards.
js-of-mp: irl, there's no prizes for the wallflower.
erlehmann: js-of-mp misunderstanding. i like slutty behaviour. but if you want something else than sex, don't be disappointed if slutty behaviour results in sex.
deedbot: js-of-mp voiced for 30 minutes.
js-of-mp: its not a matter of like. it is a matter of the dorky reductionism, "oh, slut gives up on everything for sex". this isn\'t taking holy orders.
erlehmann: worst story of that type was that i once got a lecture how prostitution is bad, because the woman who told me that had done it and never found love (abridged, but probably truthful enough). meanwhile, other people rather fuck for money than work as a waiter.
js-of-mp: the woman lied about being a whore.
js-of-mp: any even moderately competent whore will get a "twu wuv" idiot each season.
js-of-mp: there's no exception to this rule and i think i know more whores than any representative ever knew of his electoral basis.
erlehmann: i guess the point was that she did not catch feelings. i know that type and keep away now.
js-of-mp: next time idle chatterbags make that claim, point out to them that you once fixed a shower head yet you don't go around trying to pass for handyman in social situations.
js-of-mp: working girl works. twelve a day every day, not "oh i was in this ambiguous situation about paying the toll at the booth once"
phf: we have a particular friend hoe. she's fucked up most of the time (alcohol and psychedelics), traveled across the world off the money she makes. running joke is that she's taken over by ishtar, and she's having all these crazy amazing experiences while being only half conscious of it. "got fucked up in mumbai, ended up in a hat of a holy man in himalayas. good lay. xoxo" etc.
a111: Logged on 2017-06-22 20:06 erlehmann: i think it is fairly plausible that the description of “orcs” can be read as some kind of blatant racism – “black-skinned”, “brutish”, “slant-eyed” …
a111: Logged on 2017-06-22 20:09 Framedragger: rehashing *conclusions* of tmsr dogma does not do much good. (i guess counter to that is "we don't have time for proper free education", which is fair).
erlehmann: js-of-mp i don't particularly care. germans weirdly enough use “refugees” (older german: „flüchtling“ newer german: “geflüchtete”). i finally understood the orc metaphor, that was the point of the statement.

js-of-mp: erlehmann: there's no real spec to orcdom, visually, beyond "no good". it's actually a pretty interesting concept, anthropologically, because of its marked similarities to beauty.
☟︎ js-of-mp: ie, aculturated agents claim awareness can't meaningfully produce ideal etc.
erlehmann: next up: Framedragger comes to town, ends up in bed with jacob applebaum, writes seven blog posts about it because that is what j.k. rowling did (right?).

js-of-mp: note that if you can't come up with a good novel IT ISN'T THE FAULT OF THE WOMAN EMPTYING YOUR BASKET.
js-of-mp: i think every domestic slave of every cramped up writer got screamed at least once in her life out of the dude's pure frustration at his own inability.

js-of-mp: well mexicans, whadda ya want.
trinque: they work their asses off for one, and that goes straight up to the business-owner ones.
js-of-mp: but we are discussing mexicans specifically.
js-of-mp: ie, hang out with puerto ricans, you're jus tseeing 2nd hand new york.

erlehmann: because poor → no illusions about self-worth?
js-of-mp: poverty is not some sort of predictor of prospective failure in my experience. just a summary of historical failure.
js-of-mp: erlehmann: well, not really, no. vanity comes in valupacks at any price point. but because, if nothing else, hungry.
js-of-mp: hunger is good, as it is the only true antithesis of indolence.
js-of-mp: asciilifeform: so we could say that the problem wit htheir being poor is your being poor too ?
js-of-mp: this is eminently true, and especially of today's berlin.
erlehmann: asciilifeform totally unrelated, what is your opinion about compose key?
erlehmann: in terms of machine being predictable etc.
js-of-mp: no, i know. that's what i mean.
erlehmann: asciilifeform kind of mod key: 1. press compose key. 2. press at least two other keys in succession 3. get glyph that makes sense
js-of-mp: barefoot never-ever-seen-tampons female will still think highly of self in her own village.
erlehmann: asciilifeform so for example compose and - and > makes →
erlehmann: asciilifeform but compose C C C P makes ☭
erlehmann: modality is limited, that's why i asked
js-of-mp: google item, mouse-paste the product!

js-of-mp: but then it got postmodernified, so not very specific anymoar.
js-of-mp: anyway, item goes around with 10-20-50 MJ, it's only sensible to try and FOAD it .

js-of-mp: what's the difference between that and "i won't talk to the girl at the bar because wrong kind of music is currently playing" ?
phf: my north ireland friend tells me that the burning car was a kind of symbol of terror when she was growing up. it wasn't so much about the car itself, it's the fact that around where it was burned there were probably going to be ira militants ready to "check your papers"
