- One very bad thing about the Midwest: it became socially acceptable for everyone to be fat by young adulthood I assure you this wasn't the case in my youth, and you don't know the insidious problems this causes One is, if you're in good shape, you're assumed same-sex-attracted
- I know a couple of Zoomer chicks who -- in spite of being in good shape/decent-looking (by no means a given these days) -- have such absurdly flat affects and lack of social skills, that they give the impression of being androids trying to learn to be human. How did this happen?
- A realistic take on the USA economy that won't make it into the fake news: We have at least two megalith-tier rackets/scams eating up much of the product of the nation 1/ helfcare is a parasitic oligopoly that eats >1/5 of the national product whilst doing more harm than good
- One thing that 'Bronze Age Mindset' got right that e.g. conspiracy bros didn't notice: The role of the upper middle class in our current woes It's not top 0.1% alone, it is also about the 10-15% below them This is NOT a small number of people, it's in the 10s of MMs
- Driving around aimlessly is one of the best things you can do in postmodern life I've been doing this since I was a teenager and I am still not bored with it And a Sunday afternoon is one of the best times you can do it
- A trip to the station reminded me: In postwar America you could buy 102 octane at a filling station -- that's racing fuel now 94 octane was considered tractor fuel -- try to find a station that even sells it anymore The golden age of petrol: another casualty of Progress
- Replying to @EaldWealdI was at a social event and this guy who looked like a pretty boy anime villain, Sephiroth type came up and hit on me I found the experience so profoundly disturbing that I was not sure I should ever go back there If guys my age didn't all look like slobs I wouldn't be a target
- Replying to @EaldWealdAnd by "how did this happen" I mean apparently this is a very common thing for this generation I've noticed very weird types of people incarnating for some time now, and now that they're reaching the age of majority it's becoming very obvious Don't know what future will be like
- Jupiter-Saturn Great Conjunction in Aquarius tonight Last occurrence was followed by 125 years period that included: Suppression of Cathars, fall of Hohenstaufen, Mongol invasions, beginning of 100 years war, and the Black Death Have a nice evening and sweet dreams
- Do you believe that Providence or the "finger of God" intervenes in the affairs of men of action ? Ernst Juenger stated that on several occasions, apparently chance events saved his life in WWI It happened so reliably that he could no longer see these events as randomness
- Interesting note on Aryan values, from Krishna's lesson to Arjuna before Battle of Kurukshetra: -Desire for a specific result must be abandoned in battle, and in life generally -Only value evenness of mind and skillful action. Whatever else follows from this, is right
- Replying to @EaldWealdWell, that's not true, I am a handsome man, but what the Hell was wrong with this guy? He had apex predator physiognomy and should be building a harem, not hitting on me Counterpoint was that the girls there did appear to know / like him but still David Lynch level of surreal
- The RFK Jr. dropout speech was a remarkable thing in itself -- a relentless, factual and rational attack on the medical-industrial complex and the health disaster wrought by it And, even despite how compromised the legacy media are, this was broadcast into millions of households
