The worst trick social media ever played was convincing people that they matter

MARC ANDREESSEN: "We had meetings with the Biden admin where they told us to not even start AI companies because there's no way they'll let them succeed."

JOE ROGAN: "What do you do after a meeting like that?"

MARC ANDREESSEN: "You go endorse Donald Trump."

Pratt showed he can finish in top 2. Demoralized voters might show up in the general. Get him a ground game and we are looking at something. Now would be a good time for Tech VC’s to open up the checks and fund ballot chasers.

it turns out that to fix hollywood, they just needed a new crop of gen Z directors to come in and make movies about what life is actually like in 2026 and boot the epic millenials making reddit marvel slop from the industry. dont let the door hit your chungus ass on the way out!

Watched Marty Supreme, which was better than I was expecting, quite entertaining, funny, visually interesting, frenetic and uncomfortable in the way Safdie movies are. But it really leans into this sociological tic you often see in movies/books about successful people that the true artists, true geniuses, people at the highest levels of their field, must give themselves over to narcissism/sociopathy/cruel often self-sabotaging obsession. All of the main characters are some version of this. Possessed like heroin addicts by their pet passion, however trivial (like ping pong), and willing to destroy themselves and everyone around them in its singular pursuit.

Some highly successful people are like of this course, possessed by their goals in this self-destructive way, but this trope is mostly cope in my experience. The idea that to become truly successful one must become evil, one must make some kind of Faustian bargain, one must commit himself to misery in all other things, is a way for non-successful people, the less motivated or talented, to tell themselves their shortcomings are in fact an expression of their virtue and moral superiority over the guy who has made it to the top of the mountain.

In fact, the most successful people I know, rich, powerful, highly accomplished across a number of domains, while unique in their own ways, often weird, and even unusually obsessive, are not sociopathic or self-sabotaging at all and seem to be as satisfied and well-adjusted to the world as anyone else, and usually more so. The malignant narcissist, on the other hand, tends to flame out and self-implode well short of the summit.

Hitting your kids is in the same category as circumcision, iPads, strict adherence to the CDC vaccine schedule---it is for Ns, goyim, and walmart pajama people. It lowers IQ (Straus, 1995), increases aggression (Gershoff, 2016), is less effective than a timeout, and requires escalation to keep working. The replies to articles like this are filled up with the Dumbest People Who Ever Existed saying "it worked for me" and then genuinely malicious and hateful morons dropping reaction gifs of like daffy duck swinging a belt

"EVERY STATE IN AMERICA ALLOWS YOU TO PHYSICALLY CORRECT YOUR CHILD. It's legal. It's fun. Bring it on." -- profile says: Cat Sanctuary Dad. Unyielding steel. Workouts, keto, cat chaos, anime rants. Godzilla, Gundam, Mazinger, Ultraman, classical art, manga.

If you hit your kids, you will create permanent emotional distance with the only person/people you could ever be that close to, not to mention sending them down the road of being as much of a lost fuckup loser as you are who will hit their own kids, or wont, but only after spending a decade figuring out why they reflexively apologize all the time.
