Everyone in nyc seeks satisfaction of libido in most depraved, debased, perverted means accessible to their station. Every dying empire creates a new Babylon… this is GOOD! Indulge while it lasts… act accordingly
Empedocles was an early proponent of metempychosis:
ἤδη γάρ ποτ᾽ ἐγὼ γενόμην κούρη τε κόρος τε,
θάμνος τ᾽ οἰωνός τε καὶ ἐξ ἁλὸς ἔμπορος ἰχθύς
-
for I already once was a boy, a girl,
a bush, a bird of prey, and a fish swimming in the sea
Athenaeus 8.69
@ragandboneshop@keysmashbandit Dude... we all know where the pedagogy of modern academe originates, which is responsible for rendering an entire generation illiterate. Fwiw, as a recent undergrad at an elite 'liberal' arts college, the vibe in literary scene is tedious, pretentious, spiritually conservative
@keysmashbandit The decades-old murky residue of regurgitated, decontextualized 'deconstruction' has irreparably damaged the minds of many impressionable youths.

@keysmashbandit This illness has long been diagnosed: the problem is largely a result of the enduring rule over American humanities depts by frigid, asexual, careerist devotees of the Lacan, Foucault, Derrida, etc cult, who in turn indoctrinate all students into the very same script.
@CharlotteFang77 If sexual competition was survival-parasitic and survival pressure is removed, and bio substrate of attraction becomes infinitely malleable, then what remains of "sexual competition" is so attenuated calling it the same phenomenon and blabber in this way is category error
@CharlotteFang77 This is one track among many... also problem of "hedonic hyperpred" is tht this is alr possible, has been, but isn't happening... why?
@CharlotteFang77 Imo, human nature is plastic enough that right material conditions may dissolve even biologically-rooted conditions. Sex preferences originated from survival pressure... is this not why "man in utopia always invents violence?" Polynesia/Yanomami = relative abundance, not absolute
