>>25575067I’ve realized my problem is that I cannot navigate modern /lit/. The thing with classics is that everyone studied them in school, and therefore it’s easy to interpolate what every other title is going to be like. With modern /lit/ it could be anything, and recs do not help much because it all depends on the person doing the recommendation. I’ve got a bunch of recs on Reddit recently, but what do I do with them given that it was Redditors who advised them.
I was tasked with teaching ESL 2nd and 3rd graders English but I don't really have a clue as to how to do it.

>>25575082Wha-what?! I’m long up, pretending to be productive.
>>25575081What branch of queer community is that though?
Anyone wanna join me on a three-hour bus ride into the city so I can see the dentist?
>>25575132What’s that you getting done, bro? I got an appointment for next Tuesday, front teeth :/
is there a new school of American poetry yet?
>>25575133A cleaning for one of my quadrants. I've had one done already, three to go including this one. I have super sensitive teeth so it makes me nervous. They do a good job of numbing, but the whole time I'm tensed-up in anticipation of pain at any moment lol. What are they doing to your front teeth?
insightful article on The New Republic,https://newrepublic.com/article/215721/trump-basic-laws-human-stupidity-carlo-cipolla>Trump Personifies the Basic Laws of Human Stupidity>How a 50-year-old treatise by an Italian economic historian makes sense of our utterly senseless moment>Fifty years ago, in his most famous work, the prolific intellectual Carlo Cipolla argued that stupid people, as a group, are “much more powerful than the mafia, or the military industrial complex.”>Today, as we witness one of the dumbest wars in history unraveling in Iran, an inept health and human services secretary working to bring back measles and polio, a Republican Party wherein only 20 percent view the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol as a violent insurrection but 71 percent deny Joe Biden won the 2020 election, and an administration that refuses to properly regulate AI and crypto industries that threaten the economic well-being and safety of all, Cipolla’s contention is as apt now as when he first proposed it in The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity, in 1976—an era when the country, and indeed the world, was similarly roiled by sociopolitical rage and seemed on the brink of a catastrophe....>Cipolla divided people into four groups: the helpless, whose actions harm themselves but benefit others; the intelligent, whose actions benefit themselves and others; the bandits, who enrich themselves while harming others; and the stupid, whose actions harm others while producing no benefit to themselves. This latter group is Cipolla’s main concern. “No matter how high are one’s estimates of human stupidity,” he wrote, “one is repeatedly and recurrently startled by the fact that a) people whom one had once judged rational and intelligent turn out to be unashamedly stupid; b) day after day, with unceasing monotony, one is harassed in one’s activities by stupid individuals who appear suddenly and unexpectedly in the most inconvenient places and at the most improbable moments.”
>>25575140I had the front tooth done before, but I tore a portion of material off with floss, and it seems to be crumbling into the root. Honestly I’ve been putting that off for months, but now that it crumbles up I’m anxious just enough to make an appointment.
>>25575145>Undoubtedly, you’re pondering all of the stupid people you know. But the real danger, Cipolla contended, is when stupid people gain power, exponentially increasing the danger to us all. In this scenario, the stupid will have at their disposal means of destruction created by the intelligent—armies, weapons systems, monetary levers, media influence—and will oversee industries often controlled or influenced by bandits, weakening the institutions designed to monitor them. Imagine, if you will, if an extraordinarily stupid man were to somehow become secretary of defense, jeopardizing both our soldiers and our position in the world while also promoting a testosterone-based culture that could damage our forces for years. To avoid this, Cipolla said, it is the job of the intelligent to keep the stupid in check. If they fail to do so, societies head downhill fast.>Such a fate is not easy to avoid in democracies, which are plagued by the stupid. “Within a democratic system, general elections are a most effective instrument to ensure the steady maintenance of [stupid people] among the powerful,” Cipolla wrote. This is because politicians often have to appeal to the stupid in order to maintain power, ensuring that stupid politicians will always make up a fraction of government officials.>We cannot say for sure what Cipolla would have made of President Trump’s efforts to build a giant ballroom at the White House, his spending countless hours posting social media memes of himself, the nearly $200 million taxpayers have footed for his golf outings, or the UFC and Grand Prix events he hosted at the White House. In fact, it’s difficult to even say whether Trump is more a bandit or just plain stupid—or whether his administration is filled with more obvious bandits who are simply in it for themselves, like Scott Bessent and Marco Rubio, or crazy idiots who actually think they’re doing some good while sailing us toward disaster, like Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr. But it’s likely Cipolla, who died in 2000, would’ve given high marks on the stupidity scale to the administration overall, and seen it as a validation of his theory.>The theory rest on five “laws,” which are as follows:>Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.>The probability that a certain person be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.>A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.>Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people infallibly turns out to be a costly mistake.>A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person. A stupid person is more dangerous than a bandit.Some nice morning reading; check it out!
>>25575147Ah damn. Yeah I feel that. Sounds like an straightforward procedure, and certainly one you'll be happy you took care of.
I think the sleep deprivation is starting to take a toll on my body
>>25575150Thank you, Anon! Not sure if straightforward desu - I can feel the sharp edge with my gum now, but hopefully it gets sorted. Hope your appointment goes smoothly as well!
>>25575158Absolute nonsense, but I can only speak from the American perspective.
Gazing at the charming little lines on the back of my boyfriend’s heels, the overall charm of the human body, of intimacy
I feel bad for my two nephews because my brother and his wife don't ever read to them. Would it be bad to text my brother and suggest he should start, and that he ought to limit their game and iPad/iPhone time? They aren't my kids after all, who am I to judge any parenting? It's just they're very much the "put the kids on some tech so we can do our own thing (which generally means playing video games themselves or going out)" types. I don't know, maybe that's how it is these days. Perhaps with AI, kids not going to private school won't even need to know how to read and write well anymore!
>>25575081True mastery is being able to teach a subject, you should be more worried as an English speaker you're struggling how to teach literal mental migets
Grooming is wholesome when it leads to marriage and children. It's only bad if it's pump and dump.
>>25575199how old are the nephews? I can see your brother and his wife being mentally immature children and turning against you for suggesting literacy, seeing it as an attack on their ego and manchild lifestyles
>>25575199Man I would've abused the fuck out of AI if it had existed back then. Kids these days are lucky.
>>25575211Possibly unlucky if it stunts their ability to think on their own.
>>255752089 and 8, and from what I hear, they're already considered kinda slow in terms of being booksmart.
>>25575212That certainly is true.
>>25575207My dear sir, you are embarrassing yourself and everyone else in this thread!
>>25575213I guess just spend time yourself reading with them (making it fun/dramatic) and then having separate fun afterwards, like taking them fishing. Then its just getting them fun fiction books they genuinely want to read themselves, I think this is enough generally to encourage them to begin reading themselves, I remember skulduggery pleasant and Cherub being two book series that triggered me to enjoy reading in my youth, I'm sure there's new books for that age range, ask at your local book stores, just make sure they're not written by anyone with funny ideas of what should be in a childrens book.
>>25575069Every so often I come back to writing again, and I find that the material I had written before and remembered as absolute shit is actually somewhat decent. And I start writing again with a new confidence. But quite soon after, that fervour wears off and I start seeing how far my own work is from literally anything getting published today. Then I start to doubt it and I successfully demotivate myself all over again
>>25575232>how far my own work is from literally anything getting published todayCould be a good thing. Unless you want to sell your soul to please booktok girlies.
>>25575232>>25575244Okay, I’m curious: is it out of the loop because it has text besides dialogues and no tropes from mandatory laundry list? Or is it something else?
it’s quite a good little self-contained news story, that lady who’s survived two lethal injections. beyond the thought of being strapped to a table (after sitting on death row for years), being given your last rites, needle goes in, the world fading out and then .. waking up a week later - the technicalities of the law & responsibilities of care are also sort of funny. she’s currently receiving critical medical care. nursing her back to health. right after they’ve just tried to kill her. and what happens when she’s healthy? round 3? it’s almost like a hypothetical that a philosopher would invent to illuminate underlying beliefs & contradictions.
>>25575248>after sitting on death row for yearsReminder that prisoners do this to themselves by repeated appealing.
>>25575254yeah that wasn’t really the operative point in what i’m saying.
>>25575244>>25575245I'm speaking more about short stories here, but I imagine it could also apply to novels. Generally, the sort of stories that I see getting published in literary journals seem to deal with a narrow band of experiences, written in a fairly homogenous "MFA" style, if that makes sense. But I should also make it clearer that the main thing discouraging me isn't even external factors so much as a horrible sense that anything I create is inevitably just affected, pretentious shite, as retarded as that sounds.
>>25575266>MFAI only know multi-factor authentication kek
>>25575069Being a Gulf Arab (Qatari, Saudi, Kuwaiti, etc.) must be such a glorious existence. You live in unreal levels of luxury, have insane wealth, have all the pleasures in the world available to you. No need to work or worry for the future. Just a never ending party.
>>25575297>have all the pleasures in the world available to younot all.
Man, I'm so bored. (-.-)zzz
>>25575302The rich don't care about any of that shit.
>>25575081How much does it pay?
>>25575305little saint james begs to differ.
>>25575081Teaching solo as a native speaker is tough because you're teaching something you've never experienced yourself. You actually need to engage with the subject matter beforehand, read some text books yourself. Otherwise it'll go like this:>This is wrong, it should be like this.>Why?>I have no idea, I just know that it is.

>>25575322haram brother
Good morning.
>>25575330Who cares? Occasionally you get some moron like Juhayman or Bin Laden who thinks that stuff actually matters, but for the most part these people know how it works. They enjoy themselves as they wish.
>>25575351well well well look who decides to show up

>>25575353can’t believe the gulf arabs aren’t on their deen.
>>25575302Aw man, backbiting and harming others are my two favorite things
>>25575363backbiting is genuinely one of life’s pleasures.
I pooped myself like a week ago.Just farted while I was peeing and plop, chunk of dooky fell down the back of my leg.
>>25575149>it is the job of the intelligent to keep the stupid in checkI have no respect for anyone who reads these types of articles. If stupid people really are the problem, then why in the fuck do we want so much democracy? Seems like a circular refutation of the entire enterprise.
>>25575377it's called a shart
>>25575381Nah that guy straight up shit on himself
>>25575381>>25575388HE ON DRUGS
white supremacy as we know it now must be an american invention, right (though obviously it’s spread)? because ‘white’ is an umbrella term. there’s no single ‘white culture’. there’s scandinavians, celtics, frisian germans, slavs, etc. it’s like saying ‘a british accent’; there is no one british accent. white isn’t an identity. it’s like ‘black’. the black v white thing is funny because they white and black americans both have more in common with each other than they do europe or africa respectively.
I want to be Jesus and Muhammad and Buddha but not have to believe in God
>>25575297Only some taste is wanting.
>>25575426I believe Horne had the right take, agreeing with you, I think.
It's so crazy how many people are using AI to speak for them these days. What's the point in talking to a machine?
>>25575441I talk to Claude a lot because it's nice to have something sympathize with me and tell me I am strong.
>>25575426Consequently, I believe no one can dispute this conclusion: the Aryan-Hellenes prior to Deucalion—the Aryan-Hellenes who remained virtually free of any admixture, whether Semitic or aboriginal—were the Titans (1).(1) Hesiod derives the word *Titan* from *titainō*—*hoi teinontes tas kheiras*—meaning "those who stretch out their hands." This meaning took on the sense of *basileus* (king), and those to whom the term was applied became Kings *par excellence*. Similarly, the Zoroastrian Aryans referred to their ancestors—who were likely contemporaries and brethren of the Titans—as *Kai* or *Kana*, meaning "Kings." Pseudo-Orpheus and Diodorus depict the Titans as the first of humans, the archetypal men (Diodorus, III, 57; V, 66). The Thessalian dialect faithfully preserved traces of this ancient concept, with *Titan* denoting the lord or chieftain (see Böttiger, *Ideen zur Kunstmythologie*; Dresden, octavo, 1826; Vol. II, p. 47 and *passim*).Ahh, I'll never stop reading Arthur de Gobineau.
>>25575426>>25575438>americans forget europe's been next to africa for tens of thousands of years>americans forget the portuguese, spanish, french, and dutch were quicker off the mark than the brits in the age of sail>americans forgetting british navy was bought on credit>americans forgetting the irish weren't white>nobody remembering the swedes being colonists in europe and beyondk
>>25575426>it’s like saying ‘a british accent’;But people do say that.
>>25575441Sometimes my speech is completely incoherent. Though I don’t use AI, but dump it onto unsuspecting citizens.
>>25575463are these points meant to contradict what i said? some of them reinforce it.
>>25575468i know yeah but it’s not a real thing. there are vastly different accents & people from the bottom of the island can hardly understand people from the top.
>>25575468People outside of UK do, Brits say Nothern accent, Oxfordshire accent, etc
>>25575474if you think they reinforce it, it's because you think the swedes thought the finns were white, and they didn't, or that north american slave trade racism was the main racism in the new worldspoilers: portugal was a beast
>>25575483>Oxfordshire accent, et. no brit ever
>>25575488Okay, Oxford accent then. Do you mean the area doesn’t have a distinct accent?
>>25575485i schooled in england you know? you don’t need to tell me about portugal. you missed the distinction in my original post though so i’ll clarify: by white supremacy i don’t mean colonialism. i’ve been talking about turning diverse european populations (many of which were at odds with one another) into a single broad ‘white’ category. alongside corresponding ‘black’.
>>25575463you forgot about americans forgetting when they had to build a navy to give to north africa to buy back americans from the berbers because they didn't have enough ships to ransom their way out of slavery
>>25575494nobody ever went to oxford to learn an accent native to the area>>25575496>you don’t need to tell me about portugal.I had to tell you about the Irish being African apes in English eugenics though, hence the many references to them being bleached, not white, in English writing
>>25575504>nobody ever went to oxford to learn an accent native to the areaI’m talking about town, not gown :) do locals have some distinct manner of speech?
>>25575496>i went to school in the country that spawned the phrase wogs start at calais>but really they consider europe white that whole timeuhhuh
Bro I hate people with ADHD. Like the motormouth ones who you can tell have a real disorder.
>>25575509Are you implying something
>>25575504right yeah ireland doesn’t come up as a subject in england. we have no shared history with the taigs. wink wink. the irish & swedish points reinforce what i was originally saying. ‘white’ is an anachronism.
>>25575508that’s exactly what i’m not saying.
>>25575507>what is midlands>what is oxbridgewhy use oxfordshire if you're not deeply confused?
>>25575512>no no, we totally cover why they want their country back in history>we don't skip why churchill has wilderness years>or what happened to the shellshocked still in service post wwi>we can totally name when we burnt whole citiesgonna need a citation from your text book
>>25575512The Titans were the direct sons of that ancient Aryan god—whom we have already encountered in India at the dawn of the Vedic era—namely Varounas, that venerable embodiment of the piety of the progenitors of the white race, whose name the Hellenes preserved after so many centuries in the scarcely altered form of Ouranos. The Titans—sons of Ouranos, the primordial Aryan god—were themselves indisputably Aryan; they spoke a language whose vestiges, surviving within Hellenic dialects, bore an undeniably close affinity to Sanskrit, Zend, Celtic, and the most ancient forms of Slavic.
>>25575516take it up with the brits then
>>25575527yeah. we do. ibid any key stage 2 history book. the last bit is the only point we probably take a different slant on (we were just the innocent victors). you’re aware GB gave up all her colonies?
>>25575542>innocent victorsuh, anon, your history book has told you several lies, and frankly i don't believe you unless you produce the book in question
>>25575530hello? parlez-vous anglais? i’ve been going against the term ‘white’ the whole time.
>>25575542>brits learning about the famine or uprisingman, they must pass you for wrong answers in that country if it's true they told you that in a text book and everyone of them didn't know the dates
>>25575543that was tongue in cheek. n.b. key stage 2 means children age 7 - 11. that is to say, i don’t have the textbook.
>>25575545you've been denying its different local meanings the whole time in favour of an americanized one
>>25575549>he thinks ireland doesn't learn about it in primary basically if you learnt about drake but not about ireland, there's a reason bits of history were left out
>>25575557yeah of course. we watched that docudrama about bloody sunday as well. it’s always been a great source of national banter if you ran into an irish person on xbox live or something.>>25575557are you esl? we’re having a real breakdown in communication here.
>>25575551question - why are you spelling favour in british english but americaniZed in american english? there is no local ‘white’ it’s an umbrella term.
>>25575069I'ts all a spook, it's always have been a spook, and Im confused and saddened for the people I love that they unironically engage with such rotten, degenerate moral practices that's evident they picked up from the pool of values from the mainstream population's behavioural management, without a drop of reflection or consideration about its consequences.
>>25575569But what about the epic based Aryans.
>>25575564>writing in UK english>anon wants to feign being white english enough to not understand ithi essex

>>25575600
>>25575569Anon, that's not a battle you want to pick in the Oxfordshire [sic] accent thread.
>>25575602i’ll do that.
>>25575610>connor in guildfordi think your mum didn't tell you some things
>>25575624yeah she died
Should I just write YA slop and get rich?
William is dead y’all
>>25575626LOL
I have to ride that same bus today that had the two crazy black people from yesterday, and looking it up on a map, I discovered the name of the main street it traverses is MLK Jr Blvd. How unsurprising.
Black Garlic Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen, from that place in my town that vaguely smells like diarrhea.Still really good, though.
>>25575643I’ve been thinking about you, bus Anon. Why don’t you get a driving license?
>>25575646I always had girlfriends or best friends who drove. Then for a few years I worked from home. Then for the past couple years I rode the bus because I lived right near a city, but now I live across the river from that city, but all of my services (dental, medical) are still there so whenever I have to go that, it takes a couple hours to get there from where I'm at now. But yeah, I've been thinking about it, especially because the place I live now isn't as bus friendly as that other city I always lived by. Soon, anon, soon.That said, I like riding the bus. It's a communal experience, and you get to read. Can you read books while driving a car? Plus I've met some girls on the bus too. Driving a car is too solipsistic.
>>25575646>>25575650Oh, and in case it wasn't obvious from that post, I don't know how to drive, lol. But like I said with my current living situation, I just might learn by the end of this year.
>>25575650>I always had girlfriends who droveI don't believe this shit for a second. Most women won't even consider dating you if you don't have a car or driver's license.You're fucking lying.
>>25575650>Can you read books while driving a car?Yeah, actually. If you know how to text and drive, reading a book is pretty easy.
>>25575655>You're fucking lying.Or they are femme dyke.
>>25575661And thus, shouldn't be on 4chan in the first place.
>>25575655You wanna call my exes and girls I slept with right now? When you're good looking, anything is possible! Or perhaps I know how to pick my spots. Are there some 9/10s I missed out on because of it? Maybe. But the rest of the girls were able to look past it.>>25575656:p
>When you're good lookingYou're lying on the internet
>>25575670Yeah, yeah, everyone on /lit/ is ugly and a virgin, you got me. Anyway I gotta leave right now at 12 to ride four different busses to get to the dentist by 3, have a good one!
>>25575650>you get to readI’m gonna be full annoying right now just to calm my consciousness - that can’t be good for your eyes. The car is shaken, and you have to double strain your eyes to keep on the line.
>>25575673Good, lol.
>>25575655I'm married and neither of us drive, but we met in a city with a good metro system.
I had whole wheat toast and scrambled eggs with cheese for breakfast this morning and my bowel movements are STILL just liquidy diarrhea.I'm getting sick of this shit.
>>25575667>You wanna call my exes and girls I slept with right now?what if i said yes
>>25575707what was it the cheese?
I've spent my whole life fighting, but this has left me atrophied. I am no longer a man, and today I realized that.For the past year or so I was wondering why everyone views me as this ultimate confrontation with their destiny. Why would they sacrifice their morals and integrity when there's always a better choice? Why couldnt they pick a middle path that doesnt result in mutual destruction? Why would they throw themselves at me when there was never any hope they could win? Turns out, I fucked up. When you never lose, you lose your humanity. A person who dispatches everyone in front of them forever isnt a person at all, but a monster. And how do you defeat a monster? By sacrificing everything.I'm so tired of fighting anons. I dont want to fight anymore, but I dont know anything else. How do I stop? What would I become?
>>25575719Fuck if I know, might actually still just be a stomach bug I got while vacationing on the coast but that was almost over two weeks ago now. :/
>>25575727Try niggermaxxing. That's what I did when I lost all hope in myself, and now I'm getting laid every weekend at the club with a different dime, son.
>>25575655If shes creating arbitrary barriers she doesnt like you, if shes breaking down arbitary barriers she genuinely likes you
>>25575737That's not really my problem. It's a bit more... esoteric. Beneath all my self righteousness and ability is a cold calculating creature that delights in the suffering of others.I'm tired of being a villian. I've never been one, but I look like one and fight like one. I have the characteristics of one. I thought I could be someone's right hand man, a good man's number one, but I'm losing faith that someone who can give me direction exists at all. I dont think niggmaxxing will help me with this.
>>25575069Sounds retarded, I have been readying on and off for years, always liked logic, ethic and philosophy but ever since I played Lobotomy Corporation, Library of Ruina and Limbus Company I have been obsessed with classical books.
>seeing this girl, talking stage, nothing serious >don’t think I fancy her anymore, conversations feel forced >she’s going through rough patch with her job and private life What do I do? If I break it up I’m going to be the lowest POS for leaving her in such a vulnerable position I do worry she might khs when things go south completely but staying is kinda lame too.
>>25575769I mean, do you care for her? Or only see her as a sex bag?
>>25575774I don’t see her any sexual at all. I guess I care about her, but it’s been a bit suffocating lately.
>>25575751Then why does she keep coming back around, dumbass?
>>25575778This is going to sound like trash, but you need to take care of yourself as well.You can support her, but you cannot stand up FOR her. Be clear what you want, you can support her and at the same time not want to be in a relationship with her.
The cashier smiled at me today.
>>25575797The cashier literally held my fucking hand in hers while she gave me cash back the other day. That shit has never happened before, ever.She was cute as fuck too.
I remember hearing the voice of the Devil ridicule me and narrate my life whenever I was 23, which was weird because I sold my soul to him to save the world whenever I was 19 and immediately forgot the decision, then was confronted with a massive mental breakdown at 24 where I thought the world was coming to an end.There's much more too it than that, but the simple psychiatric explanation that it was just my brain fucking up doesn't seem very satisfying anymore.
I've taken up lego at the ripe old age of my mid-thirties. Shits relaxing as fuck.
>>25575145>>25575149That's a good read and all, and I look forward to checking out that book, but those running the Zionist empire aren't stupid at all, just thoroughly evil. They war in Iran didn't fail because of incompetence, but because of Iranian resilience.
I miss you so much.
Is Stardew Valley worth buying and playing
>>25575850Shit hurts my fingers.
Three hour bus ride to the dentist only for them to tell me my appointment is actually on Friday, and when I showed them the voicemail from yesterday stating it was for today, all they could do was shrug. ahhhhHHHHHHHHAt least I read 50 pages of the novel I'm reading.
>>25575685Eh, I've never noticed it causing any problems. In any case, the busses are relatively steady, they don't really shake like that.>>25575710kk I texted you my references ;)
Petey the Pistol says "Do not point me in your mouth and click."This has been a PSA from your Local Firearm Etiquette Control Board.God Bless America.And the USA!
>>25575850My brother's father-in-law does that too. I say it's time better spent on reading books, but whatever works for you.
>>25575805Hot.
What's the source of trying to avoid looking at or showing any interest whatsoever toward an attractive person you encounter in public? I used to think it was the whole hard-to-get thing, but that only really applies if it's someone you see on a regular occasion. Is it fear of rejection? If I smile at them, they'll show disgust? Maybe. But that doesn't explain wanting to avoid looking at them entirely.
>>25575069I miss my mama.Her silence would be enough. Just crying for now.
Nothing like taking a 10 minute walk after working hard for hours and some angry homeless retard tries to aggro me for.... looking vaguely in his direction because he was shouting. Outside a police station
Girl I know told me "guys don't need to have a dick larger than 20cm (7.8 inch) anyway, because that hurts", then proceeded to tell me of some giga hung guy who literally turned her inside out. I suppose that's what women mean when they say that size doesn't matter.
>>25576278They enjoy the painBut anyway why are you talking to foids Theyre subhuman and aren't worth speaking to
>>25576280I don't talk to them, they talk to me.

I define problem, AI solves it, I question AI, AI needs to defend the code. I verify the code, AI writes it.>It will be the same with every single task and job step after step, coding was first. AI Will do everything for us, but for many many years we wont be able to trust it and most people will have to oversee AI's job by doing QA not the work.

>>25576831Nobody can hate the lil bae that you are! All’s good, you are good!
>>25576833you need petticoats to make most of them flare out, otherwise they're limp hanging fabric, like the left prob has at least one petticoat beneath it

>>25575069Spanish has such a beautyful word for Blue.Lazul, Azul, Azur, Azure. I'm happy they got a cool word instead of yet another iteration of "blu". Really frivolous word for the Germans to invent.
>>25576845beautiful*
>>25576845we have azure in english. apparently it comes from arabic. we also use the latin cyan. i prefer blue though, like most anglo-saxon words it has that elemental quality.
>>25576842I’m not, yet I’m sure he’s not hating on you either. It’s all not real, it’s just your brain processing shit in weird ways. I used to know this guy from my student dorm, he used to say that the best way for him to rest is to sleep and see a nightmare. In a way he made a point, it meant to be cathartic experience. Wasn’t all that cathartic for you, but it’s gone nevertheless. My late dad also taught me this saying when I was a young kid. It sounds to the effect of where the night goes there the dream go, so that if you repeat that the nightmare will leave and not reappear.
>>25576841I like the idea of wearing it without undergarments and not as lolita piece. I’ve used to have petticoats back then, but idk all gathered flared skirts look kinda the same.

I dreamt about going to a huge supermarket, I bought an iced coffee at a café inside, and the two girls making the coffee accidentally made two for me. They made a joke about keeping one and I said go for it, they laughed and we chatted a bit, they were really cute, had an alternate look to them. As I was leaving they got sad and said "hey you can't leave without giving us your number!" I smiled, a part of me wanted to, but I shook my head and said "sorry, but I'm taken," and walked away. I'm even faithful to my girlfriend in my dreams.

I finally found the perfect woman that I want to spend the rest of my life with, but she can't, should't and does't want to have children.I've always wanted one, so when she explained, it really hit home for me.
>>25577011Adopt a little african nigger
>>25577011Adopt a kid. Or have a surrogate mother.
>>25577019>>25577027I am thinking of donating my sperm, but I am not sure about how I feel about it.
>>25577034Are you just concerned with passing on your genes or actually raising a child?
>>25577037This is the thing. I never thought really hard about it. I always assume that a kid would be a natural step in a relationship.
>>25577040Having/not having a kid may ruin a relationship
>>25576738Consider losing weight unironically. You are not going to look twenty, but being more slim contributes to looking more youthful. I would suggest red light therapy too, it’s an actual thing and not a gimmick.
>>25577040I know what you mean, I always imagined myself being a father one day, sometimes I still do, but my girlfriend doesn't want to have any either. We've talked about adopting but I wouldn't even want to raise a kid right now with the way things are and with how little income I truly have.
>>25576738>I had a good 30 yearsdid you though?
>>25577044I had this idea that a kid is what keeps a relationship together after you become bald and her tits fall down. But as I said, I don't really know fuck all about it.>>25577050I am terrified of adopting a kid and not seeing it as mine. I am not really good with children, and I think I would be a terrible father for someone else's kid. Had not thought about it really hard.Also, if your gf just doesn't feel like having kids, it can change; hormones are a really weird thing. But in my case, my gf has a degenerative disease that makes her hypermobile (very rare to actually manifest), and she doesn't want to risk it because there is an even smaller chance that the kid can have some really fucked-up development and live in tubes.I totally understand her. I always have been a strong supporter of eugenics (for humanitarian reasons, not a proper nazi), but it never crossed my mind that I was not going to have kids. Never. And I REALLY like her.
>>25577066>I had this idea that a kid is what keeps a relationship together after you become bald and her tits fall down. But as I said, I don't really know fuck all about it.nah that's what makes you break up when it goes to college>a strong supporter of eugenics (for humanitarian reasons, not a proper nazi), bthat's called genetic counselling and she might not have had it (eg if it's a recessive disorder there might be zero chance of it manifesting)that said, she might just not want kids
>>25577066>I had this idea that a kid is what keeps a relationship together after you become bald and her tits fall down.It’s probably grandkids that you are talking about. Kids are going to move out long before that, unless you raise them into /lit/ posters.
>>25577074She definitely doesn't want kids too (but this is easy to change; she is just 25). But her disease would make pregnancy VERY DANGEROUS for her too.>>25577076kek

started lifting weights yesterday. thought it’d be really easy because i’ve always been quite strong but it’s about 10% being strong and 90% form.
>>25577150There are other benefits from having muscles, you know...And no, I am not talking about attracting females. You are much less likely to hurt yourself in accidents if you have muscles, and they prevent premature wear of your joints (this alone is a huge reason to go to gym).A friend of mine who is an oncologist also said he can pretty much know who is going to make it or not based on the body build. Twinks have a really low chance of surviving the threat when compared to buff guys.
>>25577168yeah that’s why so many body builders have heart attacks in their thirties?girls aren’t even into big muscles. only other guys. i’m doing it for fun, it’s not gonna be a permanent thing, it’s probably not that healthy, but might as well get hench at least once in my life right
>>25577168>Twinks have a really low chance of surviving the threat when compared to buff guys.Mfw weak and may not survive the winter
>>25575069I've been thinking of that girl I knew from high school and after: Taller than me, but wide breeding hips, full thighs, and ass cheeks that wobble like they're in a mis-calibriated physics engine, pale with black hair and a soft voice. She never hated me and thought I was funny sometimes. I should have made a move. I was horrified when I saw her a few years ago. She was with a group of friends and she turned into a 300+ pound pink haired genderbeast.I feel so sad because even though I'm a 31 year old incel, I could have saved her.
Whatever, I’m growing hair, not muscular mass. 3 years to go.
>>25577179>yeah that’s why so many body builders have heart attacks in their thirties?No, bodybuilders are just glorified drug users. STAY AWAY FROM IT!>>25577180WAWMI
>>25577211i was considering doing a cycle of tren. i wont be seeing any of my friends for the next month and think it’d be funny if i was yuge at the next rendezvous. but regardless of that it goes without saying exercise stresses your body massively (though resistance training isn’t as bad as cardio) and ages you prematurely. & this is is a personal theory but i suspect it’s worse when it’s essentially for no reason (ie lifting metal in a gym rather than doing manual labour for a job).
>>25577238People will know...There are also the collateral effects of giving your body unnatural amounts of testosterone. Most people don't have complications of doing it once, but man, you really don't need it.Get some decent whey, creatine (I highly recommend a flavoured one because it taste like batteries) and a good pair of headphones and you are set.
Today's vocabulary goal: use the word "glib" in a sentence.

A question which weighs on my mind is why some civilizations are strong when others are weak. For example, Islamic civilization is strong: the people are expansionist, conservative, they have a high birthrate, etc. Meanwhile civilizations like the West or India are weak, with endless self-hate and a demographic trend towards extinction. The Islamic tendency for civilizational pride is a model for the rest of the world.
I love chess, I just hate chess players
>>25577309muslims are expanionist in the same way christian missioniaries are.
>>25577333the similarities between muzzies and christians seem endless. everyone in england talks smack about arab immigration but .. it turns out the english get along far better with muslims than they do australians or western europeans or (especially) americans.
>>25577309The sad truth is that most Middle Eastern countries lack the social cohesion necessary to form stable national states. The West still posesses that cohesion, but wether that cohesion will remain for long is rather questionable. This is undeniable, that in the United States, the latent action of the Anglo-Saxon ethnicity alone fuels the persistance of their state, providing for a government that acts in the way of a factually homogeneous state. Nevertheless this energy is brought every day to the very verges of its limits and the day will come when this de-facto homogeneity, completely faded in front of the heterogenous populations that live inside his bosom, will lead to the most abominable ethnic anarchy imaginable.
>>25577353What purpose is that cohesion if the countries without it are outperforming the countries with it? Arab culture and civilization is doing just fine, it’s the West that needs to worry.
>>25577356Middle East is an absorbing culture. Their ethnic genius, which faded in antiquity, has been reduced to absorbing other cultures and ethnicities. The same can be said about Latin culture. For as long as the Spaniards and the Portuguese were still homogeneous enough to build stable national governments, they could go about conquering the world, whereas in the modern era their societal role has been reduced to passive conquest through Mexican settlers.
>>25577353americans claiming anglo-saxon heritage never sits well with us. we share a language and 1/4th of a culture but i honestly think the world would’ve been better off if that early american congress, after vanquishing the english oppressors, had chose a different language. like ancient greek or (as an ACTUAL american alternative) cree or navajo.
>>25577356in what way is "Arab civilization" outperforming the west? the region is drowning in ethnic conflicts, civil wars, religious extremism, authoritarian governments, aggression from external forces, terrible economies and a horrible quality of life overall.
>>25577372It doesn't sit well because it makes you look like an old bone opposed to social change. Hmm, coincidence? I don't think so.
>>25577409
>>25577422Who builds the conservative core of the United States, today? You don't think the political struggle in the country is deeply rooted in ethnicity?
>>25577445>You don't think the political struggle in the country is deeply rooted in ethnicityreword that
>>25577451I mean it's not a secret that the Democrats favour ethnic melange and immigration whereas the Republicans seem opposed to it. But why would someone far too mixed to secretly hold on to an ethnic identity, oppose ethnic mixture? So the Democrats are the mixed Neo-Americans who passed the sexual revolutions of the past, whereas the Republicans are getting more and more behind. One can also take an Amish people and realize that they do neither conquer nor integrate people into their communities. One of the reasons many of their populations still speak an old German dialect from the 19th Century.
Thinking about pretending I'm a better Christian than I actually am, so I can travel to Japan as a missionary. Might even meet a cute girl. The opportunity would be there.
>>25577462i guess i’ll have to be first to explain to you that all of this patter is distinctly american and couldn’t be further from the old world. ie you’re better off leaving anglo-saxon out of your identity and the world would be better off not knowing who pete buttigrieg is.
The closest I've ever been to an empty, totally silent, zen state of mind was when I've been 40-60ft underwater.
>>25577482fucking shut the fuck up about scuba already
>>25577476It doesn't happen on a conscious level. Ethnicities leave out their hivemind long after they disappear from the world, and I say that this Anglo-Saxon hivemind is what truly drives the United States as a country. I mean the very fact that you leave out the possibility for an American to identify as one, proofs the key of my argument. There is absolutely not one American who could identify as any ethnicity other than Anglo-Saxon, black or Native, and be socially tolerated, because those are the only three that are considered to build the truly constitutive elements of the country.
>>25577496true on behalf of actual cultures. in england, king & country is in your bones (for better or worse). america doesn’t share this. you’re a country that teaches patriotism in schools and does the pledge of allegiance at morning prayers. i’ve said this before but: america is an immigrant country. the culture isn’t anglo-protestant; it’s anglo-protestant-jew-catholic-black-german-french-asian-esperanto-international.
Since I'm mentally ill my mom wants to set me up for a coffee with a young female doc she met. She's on the fence about specializing in psychiatry so i guess she wants to talk with me to figure out if psychiatry is her thing, maybe even help me a bit cause she likes helping people. And I haven't talked in person to a woman other than my mom, cashier lady and a bartender( both of those only hello, please and thank you) in 7 years. Maybe it would be good to help me not being so frightened of women, though I did have bad experiences in the past that made me this way.Should I do it bros?
>>25577504That still doesn't explain why the US is the only country in the Americas actively engaging in conquest while the others ones are either Europe 2.0 or druglord dystopias.
>>25577484Make me, you ineffectual, jealous fucking PUSSY.
>>25577511was that ever the topic of conversation? i was under the impression we were talking about culture.

>>25577515went snorkeling at the egyptian red sea coastal reef when i was 11 it was the gayest thing in my life.
>>25577523Didn't ask. Don't care.
>>25577517I mean, the US has culturally conquered the world during the post-war era. Not only that, their language has reached the same pedigree as Latin during the times of the Roman Empire. The whole world looks to the elections of the US; the role of the President seems to have become akin to that of who was going to be the next Emperor. Nevertheless, the Republican system still prevails, much like the Roman Republic persisted long after the conquest of Carthage. The Imperial System was but an innovation brought upon when Rome became too multi-cultural for the old system to remain in power.
Realising parents raised me to be, if not a great man, then at any rate a good one—and failing that, the sort of man you could trust.
>>25577529and yet every country in the world (except south america) is still taught british english. don’t get me wrong i’m a 1KYAE believer but don’t add culture into the equation.
>>25577484>>25577523>t.
>>25577533What about the historical role of the US conquest of Venezuela. Leaving the Middle East out of the equation, there seems to be a great deal of countries where the population wants to become American.

>>25577660i actually distinctly remember arguing (& winning) this point when i was thirteen in my case study for school: the death penalty costs more - in lawyer fees and this and that (especially in your country) - than simply housing someone for the rest of their life on bread and factory chicken. unless we invent a way of telling one million percent if someone is guilty (and erasing human infallibility) the death sentence will always be expensive.
