punkman "It began tamely. Someone turned her around. Someone thrust her arms into the air. Someone touched her somewhat intimately. The Neapolitan night began to heat up. In the third hour all her clothes were cut from her with razor blades. In the fourth hour the same blades began to explore her skin. Her throat was slashed so someone could suck her blood. Various minor sexual assaults were carried out on her body." [02:35]
punkman "She was so committed to the piece that she would not have resisted rape or murder. Faced with her abdication of will, with its implied collapse of human psychology, a protective group began to define itself in the audience. When a loaded gun was thrust to Marina's head and her own finger was being worked around the trigger, a fight broke out between the audience factions" [02:35]

mircea_popescu now suppose cca 2026 some twerps come to persuade you to go take minsk. and you quote this line of the log to them, and they go "huh" becaue hey, log is too difficult and what's a gpg ? [16:18]
mircea_popescu so in 2027 they come for like 4-5 different similar reasons, with the same bs lines. and you quote the same log, and they go the same huh. [16:18]
mircea_popescu and by 2028 they come twice a day, and you... what ? you do what, link the log, and on and on ? [16:19]

mircea_popescu everyone [smart, white, rich, whatevs] likes to think of intelligence as a force. perhaps it is. [16:19]
* diana_coman has quit (Quit: Leaving) [16:19]
mircea_popescu meanwhile, the insistent, unyielding, disinterested in ANYTHING, eternally repeating the same inept shit behaviour of stupidity is certainly a force. that force is called will. [16:19]
mircea_popescu which is why if you're hungry and can't eat, you don't try to EXPLAIN to your aching belly anything. you try and WILL it to shut the fuck up. [16:20]
mircea_popescu most people can't do that, obviously, which is why most people are most people. [16:20]
mircea_popescu which is also why inteligence is not a force. not anymore than make-up is a force. [16:20]
mircea_popescu the erect cock, as an incarnation of will, is the one and only driver of action. which is why attempts to legislate inaction are stuck pretending "rape" exists. unless everyone's flaccid, the supremacy of will over everything is too hard a sell. [16:21]

mircea_popescu anyway, the chief problem with self esteem, and it is indeed a major problem, is that coping strategies develop and are tested as the name says : through coping. will is a fabulous thing, which serves approximately the same role as beauty in teenaged females : now you don't gotta work at anything, because lalaland. and so you don't. and so you suck at everything ELSE. and you're fucked. the problem with self esteem is [16:32]

mircea_popescu could it be that your girl is actually a MUCH NICER partner (for sex) than you are for yourself (in your own head, doing things, like sleeping) [16:40]
ascii_field it is constraints from external things that lead people to want to turn their body into a reliable mechanism [16:40]

ascii_field it is. [18:00]
mircea_popescu "more useless appearance of the desired thing for less work". [18:00]
mircea_popescu that useless is there necessarily. [18:00]

ascii_field 'stop hanging shit, visit a firing range...' [18:01]
mircea_popescu what they want is to be recognised BY OTHERS as, and this is important : [18:01]
mircea_popescu not as "in possession of it", but "immune from it" [18:01]
mircea_popescu the secret hope of boi with stupid shit stuck on all sides of rifle IS NOT that he can now go shoot people. [18:01]
mircea_popescu but that HE IS IMMUNE TO PEOPLE COMING TO SHOOT HIM [18:02]
mircea_popescu which is why "if you fuck it it only gets heavy and you still can't hit largest side of barn" does not deter him. nor even occur,. [18:02]
mircea_popescu he wants to take the "spear that will pierce any shield" and fashion it into a shield that will stop any spear. [18:02]
ascii_field this is entirely true and a cursory familiarity with american sport shooting folks will confirm [18:03]
mircea_popescu which is why "gun control" is even a thing : gun owners are its biggest advocates. [18:03]

mircea_popescu i take it as a personal point of pride that i've yet to discharge a weapon and NOT HIT SOMETHING. [18:04]
mircea_popescu what they do is go empty magazine after magazine in the worship of "look see, even THIS great gun can't hit anyone". [18:05]
mircea_popescu "i must be immune" [18:05]
mircea_popescu "my immunity from gunfire is 7k shots a week, how high is YOUR level of gunfire immunity ? over 9000 ?" [18:05]

mircea_popescu particularly the point where he goes [18:25]
mircea_popescu Because picturing yourself exerting power is fantasy; imagining yourself as victim is easy. Which is why you brought this all up. You spend a lot of your waking life creating elaborate fantasies of power that contain their own self-justifying logic, and those fantasies are so numerous that added together they actually take up a real portion of your day. A portion you're not spending on something else. If I saw a Ta [18:25]
mircea_popescu rdis, then I would know how to pilot it. If such a drug existed, then my sexual problems would all disappear. [18:25]
mircea_popescu What you don't see is that this logic isn't even self-justifying, it is self-destructing. Not "since I have sexual problems, I wish I had the drug"; but, "since I wish I had the drug, I have sexual problems." Since I wish I had the drug, two hours have already gone by. I'm staying in tonight. [18:25]
