The Great Redonkulous Rex: aka "Wiggles" - "Breaker of the Leash" - "Destroyer of Mice" - "Master of Luv". Kneel Before My Greatness! Tremble Before My Furry!
Nobody wants to hear the truth about IQ because it is ugly.
Jordan Peterson says the differences in how easily people learn and handle abstract work are huge, and they show up in paychecks and status. Conservatives like to say there is a job waiting if you just get after it. Liberals like to say anyone can be trained to do anything.
Both skip the same reality: a lot of people struggle enough with complexity that finding a solid place in this economy has become brutally hard. He says we have no plan for that and we will not even look at it.
Pretending the gap is not there does not shrink it.
“Attempting suicide” by jumping out of a second floor residential window is almost cartoonish. She never intended to kill herself. This is actually one of the most methodically planned murders we’ve seen in recent history.
@ShksprnDngrMnky@disclosetv I read an article that argued history repeats in 80-100 year cycles. The evils of collectivism rears its ugly head right on time.
oh my god I am so glad you got a clear video of this I WAS THERE!!!!!!! This guy specifically jumped into every pile of sleeping seals and everyone got so mad and started yelling and biting each other
@historyinmemes The author of the diary entry is Emperor Uda.
During Emperor Uda's reign in the Heian period, cats were incredibly rare and treated as luxury status symbols reserved exclusively for royalty and high-ranking nobility.
On March 11, 889, a 22-year-old Japanese emperor wrote in his diary about a new black cat he had recently acquired…
“On the 6th Day of the 2nd Month of the First Year of the Kampo era. Taking a moment of my free time, I wish to express my joy of the cat. It arrived by boat as a gift to the late Emperor, received from the hands of Minamoto no Kuwashi.
The color of the fur is peerless. None could find the words to describe it, although one said it was reminiscent of the deepest ink. It has an air about it, similar to Kanno. Its length is 5 sun, and its height is 6 sun. I affixed a bow about its neck, but it did not remain for long.
In rebellion, it narrows its eyes and extends its needles. It shows its back.
When it lies down, it curls in a circle like a coin. You cannot see its feet. It's as if it were circular Bi disk. When it stands, its cry expresses profound loneliness, like a black dragon floating above the clouds.
By nature, it likes to stalk birds. It lowers its head and works its tail. It can extend its spine to raise its height by at least 2 sun. Its color allows it to disappear at night.
I am convinced it is superior to all other cats.”
