In media vita! – Nein! Das Leben hat mich nicht enttäuscht! Von Jahr zu Jahr finde ich es vielmehr wahrer, begehrenswerter und geheimnisvoller – von jenem Tage an, wo der große Befreier über mich kam, jener Gedanke, daß das Leben ein Experiment des Erkennenden sein dürfe – und nicht eine Pflicht, nicht ein Verhängnis, nicht eine Betrügerei! – Und die Erkenntnis selber: mag sie für andere etwas anderes[187] sein, zum Beispiel ein Ruhebett oder der Weg zu einem Ruhebett, oder eine Unterhaltung, oder ein Müßiggang – für mich ist sie eine Welt der Gefahren und Siege, in der auch die heroischen Gefühle ihre Tanz- und Tummelplätze haben. »Das Leben ein Mittel der Erkenntnis« – mit diesem Grundsatze im Herzen kann man nicht nur tapfer, sondern sogar fröhlich leben und fröhlich lachen! Und wer verstünde überhaupt gut zu lachen und zu leben, der sich nicht vorerst auf Krieg und Sieg gut verstünde? Nietzsche, Die fröhliche Wissenschaft, 324
In Media Vita. No! Life has not deceived me! On the contrary, from year to year I find it richer, more desirable and more mysterious - from the day on which the great liberator broke my fetters, the thought that life may be an experiment of the thinker - and not a duty, not a fatality, not a deceit! - And knowledge itself may be for others something different; for example, a bed of ease, or the path to a bed of ease, or an entertainment, or a course of idling, - for me it is a world of dangers and victories, in which even the heroic sentiments have their arena and dancing-floor. "Life as a means to knowledge" - with this principle in one's heart, one can not only be brave, but can even live joyfully and laugh joyfully! And who could know how to laugh well and live well, who did not first understand the full significance of war and victory? Nietzsche, The Gay Science, 324
What is it with dudes and baby boomer men who get off on women doing men’s jobs. “My daughter is in the Military! Mine is a COP. My girlfriend does JIU JITSU! She’s hot!”
It’s so off putting and boring dude
The reason these films are being made is because the chuds are culturally dominant right now. Gen-Zs are sharing sonnenrad edits on instagoon, Facebook, and xitter. Boomers and Gen-X are talking about da joos.
These are defensive moves. They are not producing new art, only making mockeries of existing, right wing art.
This is similar to how for the last 30 or so years, conservatives didn't have any original cultural wins. There wasn't new art being produced that was right wing, it was just defense against constant, unabated Democrat wins.
Now, the conservatives are tagging on to the wins accomplished by the dissident right. And the left seeks to attack the heart of what makes the dissident right what it is. Heroes like Napoleon, Achilles, Odysseus, must be made into cucked faggots to "own the chuds."
Understand, this would not be happening if we weren't winning. And this would not be happening if our politics, ideas, and culture weren't at the forefront of the culture war, absolutely eviscerating retarded leftist agendas; instead of obscure discussions on a forum relegated to the terminally online.
Don't pay to see these movies. Don't feed their machines. They are buying out movie theaters and trying to inflate the sales numbers. They are paying "right wingers" like Shapiro to shill them. You must simply nignore what they are doing and poast. Attaq attaq attaq. It doesn't matter if it's mildly entertaining, you must look at the core of it and reject it's subversive evil entirely.
@farzyness Time frame matters. Been saying it for 2 years. Physical AI will be huge. Just not yet. Infinitely large TAM, but deployment at scale takes time. A market that can’t wait for AI CapEx to convert isn’t going to have the patience for physical AI timelines.
Nolan is a huge pussy …if he wanted it would be legitimate to reimagine the Odyssey entirely eg in west Africa of 1400 ad or even in Congo of 2000…but by his choices he shows extreme slavishness to dull convention and that he’s mentally trapped in opinions of his time
I don’t know all the issues with Nolan’s Odyssey because I saw a black Helen of Troy and a tiny troon playing a war hero and I didn’t give him my money because the movie was obviously made to destroy my civilization
Is that so hard?
The boomer brain has no defense mechanism whatsoever that will happen to anyone, at some point, inevitably. None. Zero. Complete cattle. Just wanted to scream this into the void.
This post is for young men. As a 57 year old guy who has dated a lot of beautiful women over the past 40 years, here are my top 3 tips when it comes to choosing a woman:
- The #1 most important quality in a woman is the capacity to let go. Choose a girl you can emotionally reset instantly with a hug, a kiss on the forehead, or sex. The quicker you can flip her from a bad mood to neutral/happy, the easier she will be to deal with in a long term relationship. The opposite of this is girls who carry around resentment. Their inability to be in the present moment with you without replaying past hurts in their minds will gradually kill the relationship. The worst thing in the world is being with a woman who resents you. But always remember that many women resent by nature. If she can shift or let go or forgive quickly, the relationship will have a ground of peace
- Choose orgasmic women. There's a massive correlation between how orgasmic a woman is and how easy to deal with she is in general. You can look at this through many lenses, from the amount of tension/stress she carries, to Reichs theories of armoring and orgiastic potential, to anything else. It doesn't matter really, it's just true. If she struggles to orgasm, she will also struggle to receive or appreciate you in all ways. Also, the lack of regular deep orgasms means her nervous system remains stuck and never truly resets deeply. A lot of men put this burden on themselves. But the truth is you can do exactly the same thing with 2 different girls. The first can have 3 intense orgasms just from penetration and the second can have zero. Don't struggle and become responsible for something that was never your problem. Pick a girl whose body can receive you and her mind will too
- Choose infinitely flexible women. She should be happy to live with you anywhere, in almost any living situation. The important thing is that she identifies, at the deepest level, that you are her home. Not a place, not a specific environment. You. The more she grasps this intuitively, the less she will be fixated on less important attachments and materialistic nonsense in her mind, and again, the easier she will be to deal with, the less hard you will need to work to satisfy her arbitrary mental expectations, and consequently the faster you can make her the mother of your children. There's nothing more romantic than a girl telling you "I don't care where in the world we are, I just want to be with you"
Women with these 3 qualities are usually great and marryable. And you'll know it pretty fast. Likewise, the lack of these qualities signals great danger
Good luck!
L’Odyssée s’achève littéralement par l’exécution des étrangers qui abusaient de l’hospitalité de la famille d’Ulysse (les prétendants).
L’Iliade décrit littéralement le siège brutal d’une ville parce que l’un de ses princes avait abusé de l’hospitalité de Menelas en séduisant sa femme.
Leçon finale des deux poèmes homériques : les vrais hommes châtient impitoyablement les étrangers qui abusent de leur hospitalité.
On peut partager ou non cette vision mais le poète fait l’éloge d’hommes qui ne se laissent pas marcher dessus par des étrangers qui abusent de leur bonté.
I'm working on a big cover story on the sheer panic coursing through Hollywood right now (the odyssey numbers notwithstanding).
The interviews I'm doing with (secretly based) industry insiders are blowing my mind.
Consensus is that virtually 100% of the gatekeepers who greenlight projects and move talent and money through the pipelines are retarded, tasteless, and woke, and everyone around them who isn't is too scared of losing their job to point out that the emperor has no clothes.
The solution is very simple, and for some reason I cannot fathom, it has not yet been tried. A tech billionaire just has to hang out a shingle, plant a flag, and found a mini studio/agency. Woo the smart and talented people who are trapped and staying quiet in their industry jobs.
New tastemakers. A new pipeline. And watch the culture bloom. This could literally happen tomorrow.
XStudios awaits....
The democratic system is (tautologically) built with a craftsman's eye to the comfort & tastes of the median voter - it will, at all costs, ensure that they are cozy & well-fed & sleepy
The only way to defeat it is to turn their hearts to their children
