@Devon_Eriksen_ As Tacitus said, “Good turns are pleasing only in so far as they seem repayable; much beyond that we repay with hatred, not gratitude.”

@nazbowling102 I assume it's less the cost of soda and more the soda gives them an excuse to loiter in the restaurant for hours.

@MoundLore Night of your birth. Thirty-three. The Leonids they were called. God how the stars did fall. I looked for blackness, holes in the heavens. The Dipper stove.

@MattPirkowski @resilientree The most prominent post-Dunbar example? Is it women sabotaging friend groups with bad advice? Committing intrasexual competition against >10 friends while living in a city of over a million? You aren't meaningfully competing for mates anymore.

@TheGoodBobby @RichardHanania What happens when we have to pay all 300 million citizens $4000 a week VA disability for anxiety? Do we all just keep our money?

The idea that over the next 5 years, our flexible efficient market economy will automagically find some way to retrain 20-40M labor sellers, maybe in new professions that don’t exist yet lol, is totally out of touch with this reality.

AI optimists: drive across the country

I have a deep fascination with discovering how retarded the average person is.

You’ll never understand until you work customer service. Exposed to hundreds of unique people weekly.

Each one with a range of cognitive ability spanning from brilliant to genuinely stupid.

I want to make some kind of series exposing this.

You think everybody is like you. They’re not.

You think drug addicts are just you with addiction. They’re not.

You think poor people are just you with no money. They’re not.

You think criminals are just you but angry. They’re not.

They’re retards. Unfathomably, impressively stupid people. You just don’t get it

@retardmode An underrated correlation is McDonalds with broken ice cream machines. Check out https://t.co/kWofA649J9 if you are skeptical.

Under-40s are being forced into permanent adolescence so that elderloids can have nice on-paper gains...

...On assets they literally will not be able to liquidate because all potential buyers got put in crystals.

Average boomer in 2035 will essentially give their "investment" directly to a nursing home for 5 years of applesauce before succumbing to botched euthanasia at the hands of some atavistic specimen of the long-lost lemurian root race

@hencefroth @PalmyrPar Sounds like you'd be a lousy surgeon.

This is an easy win for an imaginary government which is not the one we have.

The easiest path to this win, with the government we have, is a military coup.

You must realize that this situation is defended by iron walls of Constitutional precedent and public policy science

@HohlyMohly Job prospects and things to do would both be better if you bought a home 5 minutes south in Calumet for 65k. I used to fantasize about it.

TLDR: the country is a rotted shell outside of NY, SF, and LA. All tech is in SF. All other money: porn, weed or debt. Also vast fields worked by imported helots.

BUT: iPhone 17 is worth 6B in 1985 dollars. We’re rich. Pangloss vindicated. OLED retina screens are great for porn

Stone pipe (blue limestone) from a mound site in Kentucky. It depicts grief or sorrow, at least that's what the book relates.
