The word “Trump supporters” no longer has meaning in the mainstream.
We’re now America Supporters, and Trump is one of our presidents and our talented billionaires.
The rest of the world will take a while to come to terms with this.
What you will see, is that the organs of the state will be slow on this. You’re going to witness a period of Trump Withdrawal Syndrome - a media and populace that has spent 4 years on the speedcrack of a Trump high will not have a target and their fire will suffocate.

Oh cool so we could find out that not only is our vote useless but the laws and courts are also not interested in protecting us either
Like holy fuck this is ridiculous. Using technicality to allow people to delete data based on an executive order from december 1
The laws are written to protect the swamp, ubiquitously, everywhere in the nation

Novel Coronavirus: a Kids’ Novel
The sun is shining outside
Which would always inspire us
But today we must hide
From the Novel Coronavirus
Gyms and schools are all closed
There’s nothing to do
Dont touch your face or your nose
Or you’ll get SARS-CoV-2

“Hope, danger's comforter, may be indulged in by those who have abundant resources ... but it’s nature is to be extravagant, and those who go so far as to put their all upon the venture see it in its true colours only when they are ruined”
“ but so long as the discovery would enable them to guard against it, it is never found wanting. Let not this be the case with you, who are weak and hang on a single turn of the scale; “

There once was a poor man who walked around without shoes.
His feet were covered in calluses.
One day, a rich man felt sorry for the poor man and bought him a pair of nikes.
The poor man was extremely grateful and wore the shoes constantly. He was overjoyed! Such a simple gesture by the rich man had improved his lot greatly.
After a year or so, the shoes fell apart. The poor man had to go back to walking around barefoot.

OkCupid has had a major brand initiative for 2020, they are actively trying to court woke social justice millennials/leftists as their primary customer base. The implications of this are pretty funny to think about (thread)
Woke Capitalism is extremely stupid for a few reasons.
Primarily, big companies are dinosaurs and leviathans. They sense the cultural impact, but they simply are not agile enough to keep up in the culture war landscape

I’m having so much fun telling my Trump-hating friends and loved ones “I guess Trump didnt end up getting impeached after all”. Completely easy trolling today lads
When they inevitably try to correct you (their urge to do so will be irresistable), say that you were watching the impeachment in the senate and they didnt have a 2/3 vote.

@DejaRu22 Incredibly dense. It will require repeated readings.
These are the keys to it all - all else is flash and rigidity and superfluousness
@DejaRu22 Do not slash, swing, attack, move, or touch.
Instead simply CUT.
Hold a sword with ironclad intention to cut and kill.

1 take per like challenge. Like this post for my opinions
1. Mother Nature has worked as a branding tool to make nature seem nurturing, pure and beautiful
But in reality nature is incredibly harsh. Most of the time pretty gross/disgusting and will fucking ruin your shit every time.
Environmentalism is mommy issues from delusion

@HarmonicTension This single paragraph has given me more to think about than hours of content I’ve consumed recently. God damn.
@HarmonicTension I wonder if I say more sweeping categorical judgements to people who I know are dumb

Some ruminations on self-improvement Twitter
This sphere is growing, and there are many players vying for attention of a clear audience of people. The way this audience is split up is evident by the content and style of a given account’s tweets.

In WW2, the US military was trying to determine where to add more armor to their planes.
Planes would come back with massive amounts of bullet holes in the fuselage, wings and fuel system.
Naturally, they assumed that planes were getting shot most often in these areas.
A mathematician named Abraham Wald disagreed with this intuition.
Assuming the bullet holes should be randomly distributed, he noticed that there were very few bullet holes on the engines of the returning planes.
His recommendation was to maximally armor the engines.

@DeeperThrill Once you can do these things, experiment endlessly.
Some fun tricks I have found:
- Pretend that your brain is in your foot. Observe how that changes your perception of your sensory inputs. Imagine that everything about your experience of your mind is happening elsewhere
@DeeperThrill - try to feel as though the sensory inputs of you having a head are actually *enveloped by* your consciousness, rather than the other way around.
Your mind is actually occuring around the outside of your head, with your head just being a part of it
You deal yourself most of your own hand.
First, you need to analyze the playing field - understand the rules, and what your objective is. What is the "Win" condition, what are the "Lose" conditions

1. Fear Inoculum
This will be a long thread detailing my analysis of Tool's new album, #FearInoculum. I've had some time to contemplate it - and it's phenomenal.
Lyrics are available here: genius.com/albums/Tool/Fe…2. in·oc·u·lum
/iˈnäkyələm/
MEDICINE
a substance used for inoculation.
Tool intends this album to be functionally useful in immunizing yourself against FEAR.
Folded in half, the word "Tool" on the album cover becomes a syringe.

@flyover_country I don’t know what the tweet referenced says (either I’m blocked or blocked them) but I am not sure I agree that Feminism and Red Pill are dichotomous. There may be elements that are similar, but they are structured totally differently in terms of dogma.
@flyover_country Feminism does not proliferate observables. Rape Culture is a myth that cannot be verified. Hypergamy, or other patterns of female behavior, are observable and to some degree hidden, or at least not openly discussed.

Finding Joy in Little Things
Or, a dumb story of what I did this afternoon

I recently started in the gym, and all around I’m pretty sore - but on my way home from work I decided to head to the driving range and hit some balls. Fuck it, beats sitting in traffic.

@flyover_country @Red_Pill_Dad Can’t all of these be simultaneously accurate descriptions? It seems like each description listed is a different meta level application of one set of underlying principles.
@flyover_country The fundamentals would be something like:
- benefits accrue meritocratically towards competence in various systems
- “competence” attributes are based on human nature, which society can’t admit openly
- most of the attributes of competence are within one’s control to affect

Judo Politics. In the Bush years, the leftist zeitgeist branded the right as a bunch of America loving flag/bible thumpers. At the time that worked.
But it was shortsighted, the paradigm has shifted now massively.
Now that America at large has gotten over its mixed guilt/world police shame that resulted from the shock induced by 9/11, that brand sticks. And we’re in a nationalist epoch.

Friends,
Do yourselves a favor - and tune out for two weeks.
Seriously. Move your Twitter and Facebook and Reddit apps to the last page on your phone so you can’t habitually open them.
Replace them with Books or something else. Stop consuming news.
The vast majority of people won’t do this, but god damn does it give you perspective on all of this day to day.
I was lured back for a second by the news of declas, so I’m dipping in to see what’s up with that.
