Just another learner.

Just as it is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows, so it is impossible for a man to earn what he thinks he already deserves.

Your mindset is the operating system that decides whether reality is a teacher, a judge, or an enemy.

[Devon Eriksen @Devon_Eriksen_]

It's useless to warn people about something if no one can have a conversation about why it's happening and what must be done to stop it.

And that conversation is something that the tech elite are totally unprepared to have, because the solution will hit them directly in the pocketbook.

I can tell you how to fix the fertility crisis in three words.

But I can't actually fix the fertility crisis with those words, because y'all are not ready to do what's necessary. You think you are, but you're not. And you'll understand why I say you're not when I tell you the three words:

Stop. Hiring. Women.

Now do you get it?

A moment ago, you thought you were willing to do anything to fix this existential threat to every part of the world that matters.

Now, you want to ask me if there isn't, possibly, some gentler way that doesn't involve any nasty shocks to our nice, peaceful, tolerant, inclusive liberal way of life.

Or you're just calling me a big meanie.

Doesn't matter. When you argue with the point I am making here, you are arguing with Mother Nature, and I promise that Mother Nature cannot hear you, and she does not care.

Women already have a job, a job they evolved for. A job that is so demanding that they have to 100% specialized for it.

Women's job is making humans.

And there's only 15 years between the age when it's a felony to make a human with them, and the age when the stuff they need to make humans starts to not work so well.

If they are filling the role of men during that time period, they cannot do their own full-time, maximum effort job, and you get no new humans.

This is precisely why Mother Nature designed women to only mate with men who are wealthier and more powerful than they are. Because a woman, who is working full time at making humans, needs to be supported.

A baby human is an investment in the future. You can't make investments in the future without someone else supporting you in the present.

If men cannot do this, women won't have babies with those men.

This is why every single high-tech civilization has the fertility crisis.

Because every time a civilization gets high-tech, the elites, who buy labor, have a bright idea. Let's start educating the women, they say. That way, we can hire them and double the supply of labor. Which is totally good for society, and the fact that we, personally, will benefit most from this is a total coincidence, and not in any way the whole reason that Wall Street loves feminism.

Everyone knows that there's a near-perfect correlation between female education and the fertility crisis.

But very few people have truly understood why. It's not the education. It's what the women are being educated for.

If you just wanted to teach them matters animal, vegetable, and mineral, along with many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse, there would be no problem at all.

But women are not being educated so they can be interesting conversationalists, or well-rounded human beings. They are being educated so they can sit in a cubicle eight hours a day between the ages of 20 and 35, and answer emails or design marketing campaigns.

That leaves them neither the time nor the resources nor the inclination to make humans, because men aren't any more powerful than they are. Which gives them the ick.

And, of course, they're miserable, because they are genetically programmed to be happy when they do their real job, which is making and refining little humans. Not emails or spreadsheets or marketing campaigns.

But no one is ready for this conversation, because it would involve admitting that every change in Western values after WW2 was a huge mistake.

@elonmusk isn't going to stop hiring women. Hell, it's not even legal to stop hiring women. You can get sued into oblivion for that.

But woman can't make little humans unless the other responsibilities of life are somebody else's problem.

And she doesn't want to make little humans with any man who cannot shield her from all those extra duties.

The bar for being able to do that used to be "reasonably successful tradesman". Now it's actual serious wealth.

We can't IVF our way out of this problem. And we can't just sit around posting "have more babies" on twitter. We have to address the real obstacles that prevent women from having kids.

And the biggest of those is that we have, in effect, demanded that they share every single adult male responsibility from career-building to voting to military service.

All of these responsibilities and burdens were sold to women as opportunities. But nothing is an opportunity if you can't opt out. Just try being 18 years old and finding a man who will 100 percent support and take care of you while you bear his children and do a little light housework.

It's possible, but you had better be exceptionally beautiful, with a sunny personality to match, and social access to the right set of men.

Because the average man can't offer you that deal anymore.

Not won't. Can't.

And there aren't enough rich men to go around.

[Bhrojn @Ogaa_Adee]

@Devon_Eriksen_ You've been waiting to write this one for a long time. And I'd wager it'll go down about as well as you expected, that is, not very.

Healthy married sex life

[maddie rune🪰 @themaddierune]

My favorite thing about being a mom is that I genuinely do not care about a lot of the things I’m apparently supposed to care about because I refuse to treat every little inconvenience like a crisis. Spilled juice? Whatever, accidents happen. Broken toy? Oh well, we had fun with it while we could. Muddy faces, clothes, and shoes? That’s what a bathtub and a washing machine are for. Someone wants me to race them on the monkey bars and go down the slides? Absolutely, I’m going to play too. One more bedtime story? Of course, because I know they won’t ask me forever. I have never wanted or cared for a perfectly preserved life and I’m not spending the moments with my children getting pissed off over things that won’t matter in five years. So much of the stress we put ourselves through is completely self induced. You can just…not make everything a big deal? Most of it isn’t that serious. I think one of the best ways to mother is to stay a little childlike and whimsical yourself.

[Naval @naval]

Immortality, meaning, and love are readily available - they’re just running around disguised as children.

[Umi @umikathryn]

A trait I’ve noticed in people who operate at the highest level: they are two people at once. Ruthless and kind. Disciplined and playful. Obsessed with the mission and unbothered by the timeline. They think with their head and lead with their heart.

They work like it’s all on them and rest like it’s already handled. They chase impossible goals, and they still fall asleep grateful for what they already have.

Most people think you have to pick one. The ones who win just refuse to. ♡

"...your son will treat women how he sees you speak about and interact with his father and vice versa."

God bless you for saying this.

Too many people focus solely on how the father treated the mother. But in my experience, a boy's view of women derives primarily from how he *saw* his mother treat his father.

Why? Because that's what is in store FOR HIM (as far as he knows).

He notices if she supported him or undermined him, how she spoke about him when he wasn't around, the impact she had on his reputation and peace of mind.

Was she a blessing or a problem?

All these *subconsciously* develop the image your son sees he looks at a woman. You are the baseline.

@peteremcc If the end result of what a person advocates is murder, then what they want is murder.

@FischerKing64 Being comfortable asking you about pretty much anything that I *genuinely* do not know (but think you might) and am curious about, without fearing being made to feel weird/look stupid, is my ultimate litmus test for people I hang around with, let alone become *friends* with.

AI allows full grown adults to ask questions like children - that they have been too afraid to ask of friends because they didn’t want to look stupid.

All is reps. There’s no substitution for reps. 10,000 hours is just a metaphor for reps. Chess is reps. Painting is reps. Thinking, wisdom, even prayer is reps. There’s a reason the French say ‘apprendre par cœur’ (to learn by heart). Repetition itself is the stairway to heaven

The sane man is called 'well-adjusted'. To what is he adjusted? To the world he finds himself in.

The madman is not well-adjusted to the world. Instead, he seeks to adjust the world to himself.

Not all madmen are great, but all great men are mad.

@TheOmniLiberal Now this is an incredible display of lack of self-awareness and humility.

That Kaizen guy said in his debate with you, it felt like you came there "to win" as opposed to "to have a discussion".

And you are replaying that same mentality right now, beat-by-beat.
