Under scarcity it’s expensive to be poor and cheap to be rich.

But under abundance it’s cheap to be poor and expensive to be rich.

Complete inversion from what you know.

The psyop men fall for is, “You can have kids anytime.” While true, the other side of this coin is, “Every day you delay kids is a day you don’t get with your grandkids.”

@TMLutas Interesting counter point, thank you.

[Michael Guimarin @Guimarin]

“People not born in the US need to leave the country and reapply for citizenship. Those born to parents who were not citizens need to leave and reapply for citizenship.”

My telemetry observatory caught this in the past month.

It’s now a stable equilibrium point (shelling point) in the information environment.

There is no left-wing counter argument to the above so it will grow/metastasize until one appears, it comes to dominate, or the system collapses.

Given that I try and steel-man all points of view, I assess a greater than 50% probability (probably more like 80%) that it comes to dominate.

The issue like other similar shelling points is “what exactly are you going to do about it?” These points are outside the paradigm and it’s hard to envision them reconciling without political violence.

It’s a fancy math way for saying an equilibrium point existing in a state of dynamic and balanced tension.

Think of it like a ball on a sheet, and where the ball is the sheet warps down. Nothing is easily climbing out of that depression and stuff that moves close by gets drawn down into it.

@TMLutas First, my suspicion from having folks like you in my own extended family is that many would be glad to redo the test.

Regarding tax status, I don’t know.

Right now this comes up in an emotional rather than solid policy context.

[Disgraced Propagandist @DisgracedProp]

People demanding "proof" of election fraud are not understanding how crime works. I worked at Manhattan DA for over 2 years, one in Homicide. We never had video proof of the crime. We almost never had DNA. These are things that occur on CSI on TV, not in real life. And we still convicted people all the time.

What we had was testimony and circumstantial evidence. Travel times, bank records, cell phone data, gate access codes. Motive, capability, benefit, time and place. Never direct proof. Of course the defendant always denied the crime, but there was enough evidence to show that one had to have occurred nonetheless.

If what we have in the LA Mayoral election is a statistical anomaly that is beyond reasonable explanation with anything besides fraud, that is enough to prove a crime. This has been true since the beginning of Western Civlization.

@theonlyGBF If there’s an Overton window for acceptable political discourse.

And there’s a bounded window for allowable political action.

This point of view exists within one but not the other.

@JoshuaSteinman @Cernovich ++

We use these. They are great!

Endorse.

i could listen to technical/manufacturing style rogan convos like this for hours, golden content. more please

[Michael Guimarin @Guimarin]

@TheDeeGroup You’re a real one for admitting this.

😂

@AlmostMedia I learned that a lot more women than I thought are prostitutes.

@adamscrabble Happy birthday!

[World of Engineering @engineers_feed]

Voyager 1 is 24 billion kilometers from Earth.

It communicates with us using a 23-watt transmitter.
Less than a refrigerator light bulb.

The signal takes 22 hours to reach us, traveling at the speed of light.

By the time it arrives, it's 20 billion times weaker than the power of a digital watch battery.

NASA's Deep Space Network picks it up using 70-meter dish antennas cooled to near absolute zero to reduce electronic noise.

The engineering required to hear a 23-watt signal from 24 billion km away is arguably more impressive than the spacecraft itself.

Launched 1977.
Still transmitting.
Still being heard.

We built something that works perfectly, 47 years later, in conditions no one has ever tested in.

That's what engineering for the long term looks like.

@MatthewChang @Codie_Sanchez Im of the opinion the couple shouldn’t fund anything related to the wedding. If they do it should be a courthouse wedding with a pay yourself restaurant reception.

😂

[Michael Guimarin @Guimarin]

I don’t have a problem with people having inexpensive weddings. I’m an advocate.

I do have an issue with rich people telling people to act poor and not disclosing that they’re ridiculously rich.

We had a society wedding that was 1/4-1/3 the cost of our peers, and it was a blast. But it wasn’t free!

[Michael Guimarin @Guimarin]

@bronsonst @Cernovich Trying to make a point with simple math. Not 20-20 what could have been.
