The frustrating thing about many of our social issues is that we merely lack the will to solve the problems.

We are shouted down by lunatics who want to live like pigs in filth so that the outer world matches their inner world of chaos and disorder.

“The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity” while we sink into the abyss.
Life will not improve until sober moderate people are making the decisions while the hysterics are treated for the unserious people they are.

In any serious society, entertainers are low status, like courtesans or circus performers. They exist for your amusement and nothing more. If you would enjoy a party like this, think about why.
The entertainer can only exist in the spotlight. It is the audience that breathes life into them.

Take away the spotlight and they crumple like marionettes whose strings have been cut. Being looked at is what gives them reality.

It is a farcical, tragic way of life.
There are very few performers whose fame has lived beyond their own lifetimes.

They are incapable of lasting fame unless they transcend mere entertainment and find art.

Suburban shariah law:

1. If I have to text something to a wife, I send it to her husband and he shares it with her. Or, I send to a group chat they’re both a part of.

2. I never enter a neighbor’s house if the husband is not at home.

3. If trying to coordinate a play date, I either talk to the husband, share invite with him, or make sure the wives connect and sort it out.

4. I do not add wives as Facebook friends unless I’m already friends with the husband and they invite me first. (Would be rude otherwise). Otherwise leave invite pending.

5. If contractors need to come to the house when I am not home, I plan to meet them there.Image
This is not even conservative. This is being smart.

No one sets out to screw up their life. People get into sticky situations step by step.
“No, no… why do we need rules? Can’t we all just be chill and trust each other? We’re all grownups.”

Wouldn’t it be better to learn from the accumulated wisdom and experiences of people who screwed up? Wouldn’t it be better to assume people make mistakes rather than to find out that no one is perfect?
