Co-editor / author BTC & Nat Sec | First album, Renaissance, out soon | 2x entrepreneur, ASL interpreting + education // i believe in what mankind could be
As I'm finally releasing my first song, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for everyone who helped me get here, to my Deaf mom in particular. I am the last person who'd make a song, let alone an album, but I had to do it.
When I look at the music released by the big guys,

One addition to Tucker's great rant
The glass skyscrapers we see everywhere imply two things:
First, that there is no INNER privacy. Everyone can see into you, into your office, into your inner world.
This is why it's so freakish and stressful to many to have glass walls for

We had massive hookup culture before tinder, that’s not the issue it (and IG) created
What it really did was make women feel that their dragnet of potential men was infinite (and this was inevitable given the internet). Women used to hook up with and date who they knew; now men

I don't think that's true.
There are lots of guys who feel settled within their instinct to only be with 1 or 2 girls.
A lot of guys play around because they're avoidant. Parental issues, whatever it is.
They're just raised to be told to sleep around, it's mostly a mistake

It's not the drugs, it's the fact that high-IQ people in our society aren't stimulated enough and aren't allowed to abide by their true nature

Diane is mapping women's emotional needs onto men, and then judging men for not behaving accordingly.

There's not really a 'redpill' movement after this. It'll just be mainstream.
So much of the underlying truths women have been disguising are known widely now that the women who best adapt will win, and the remainder will seem like femcel minorities.

How can men go into a 'lifelong commitment' with a woman who believes that he is responsible, at all times, for the state of her happiness?
It's impossible for anyone to keep anybody happy all the time forever. These expectations are simply unreal.

Be very, very careful who you let into your inner circle.
It is better to be single than to be with the wrong (an actively destructive) person.
This applies to everyone.
This thread is fantastic, and inspires several worthwhile mini-threads of their own
Kepler had to fudge his data because he knew the planets moved in ovals, NOT perfect circles -- and yet his math turned out to be WORSE than Ptolemy's, who was fanatical about Heavenly movements

Newton and Kepler infamously "fudged" their data to hide discrepancies and back their pet theories

The best part about this is that, for your average Biden voter, it doesn't matter. They'll still vote Biden. So, the media knows their core base is unaffected. This is also the group these people hang out with day-to-day; they don't know how to gear their messaging to the middle.

I've heard multiple takes on that from the docs themselves
If they put every case into the VAERS system, they'd never see patients. The system is (intentionally?) unwieldy. It's a half-hour of paperwork. No chance for an overworked doctor, or one with a small practice.

He was at the top of his religious schooling (the Yeshiva) as a young man, only to write a text about how Moses was actually evil (cosmically not unlike what Uberboyo is saying here). For that they exiled

Maybe. But violent crime isn't everything. Robbery is on the rise, and that's a serious issue well worth discussion.
Only a step to go from robbery to violence.

Incredibly brutal.
You know the boy was himself abused. He was imitating what he knew (even if also possessing a genetic inclination to these actions).

Truthfully, it's not just that he worked hard but how he worked: He was a tremendous tinkerer, and that deserves credit.
But he also politely leaves out his talent in maths. He read calc textbooks to his father, who couldn't keep up. There's obviously raw talent there.

It stuns me how undisciplined and resentful modern women are. This is what my mom looked like when I was a kid, and she always looked like this. Took care of herself.

Ptolemy's Almagest is breathtaking. We didn't have a more exact prediction of the heavenly bodies until the TWENTIETH century -- 2000 years later.
But Ptolemy himself almost certainly knew Kepler's position was right, and, typical of a genius, fudged the assumptions to produce
