@ProjectionArte Not sure i know what kind of person you’re referring to here

@prismaticflow as for enantiodromia...

max reasoning gpt-5 is as intelligent as any far-right-tail human i've ever met.

i'm calling it now: whatever they're cooking today, already beyond human IQ upper bounds. we've broken through.

a +n sigma childhood introduces an entropic disruption into the self-social equilibrium such that it is very unlikely not to deform some developmental branches imo, for better or worse

common corr.: high-IQ -> substance abuse one decade later. uncommon corr.: high-IQ -> [...] -> 1st % BF for age cohort
IQ-independent (as far as I can tell): avoidant attachment patterns

@prismaticflow oh come on

my teenaged strange fixation on vexillology was a subset of a childhood fascination for symbols

which itself iterated on a lifelong obsession with all which transcends

which itself emerged as artifact in the physiological machinatings of my Will to Power

@forthrighter lmao this guy doesnt know you can just roll down like kirby

[𝔅𝔢𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔬 @beophisto]

@prismaticflow would be great, we'll schedule smth

my psychic constitution developed also some lopsided branches orthogonal to IQ-causality (early-life extreme luck & enantiodromic lack thereof) so it would be interesting to compare our resulting matrices

[𝔅𝔢𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔬 @beophisto]

@prismaticflow I don’t, is it more granular / predictive than OCEAN?

[𝔅𝔢𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔬 @beophisto]

@prismaticflow wish i could say i've met up close someone i could definitely claim superior to me in raw g but so far it hasn't been the case

@HProggy you forget that anything that feels good in any way is evil, might i suggest you brush up on your Calvinism

I love my enemies, without them I’d have no reason to fight

[𝔅𝔢𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔬 @beophisto]

@averykimball That’s quite cruel. Also probably true

[𝔅𝔢𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔬 @beophisto]

I will make people happier and the world a better place and if you stand in my way I will fucking kill you

Hierarchies are built around scarcity - cultural (both acquisition & production) trends to zero, so it must pivot to piggybacking off whatever current status economy (social media).

But most will go straight to the source. Grift is the new art.

Masculinity broadly ceased to concern itself with excellence if inscribed within the humanities because it no longer translates to capital (social, material) in enough efficiency to justify the opportunity cost

[Thomas Doherty @dohertytjp]

@PinstripeBungle 50 years ago it was different. At my (all male, exam public school) they were reading Roth, Kosinski, Joyce, Barthelme, Malraux, Mailer on their own. Plus Mario Puzo, Leon Uris, Asimov, EE 'Doc' Smith, 'Mack Bolan' etc.

In the 19th c., wealth and cultural proficiency were one and the same - partly driven by the nouveau riche’s status feud against the aristocracy.

That semantics began to drift with eradication of the Old Regime’s last remnants, and it is entirely gone today
