mircea_popescu: seriously now. what the fuck is it ? [18:40]
mircea_popescu: "Asked how they would feel about a Trump presidency, more than a third of Americans said they would be frightened, exit polls found. Among those who voted for Hillary Clinton, the feeling was almost unanimous and reflected a deep divide: 92 percent said Mr. Trump scared them." [18:41]
mircea_popescu: other than the lulz implicit - let's do some math here. so - hillary won, as the progretards don't fail to mention, the popular vote. hence... 92% of 50.5% = 1/3 of 100% ? [18:42]
mircea_popescu: where did some of the scared people go! [18:42]
mircea_popescu: but hey, at least it's only the niggers & leeches who are afraid. generally speaking vermin should be petrified, or else wtf. [18:43]
asciilifeform: i walked in the, i sheett thee not, protest [18:47]
asciilifeform: 10,001 'millenial' cunts and cuntettes [18:48]

asciilifeform: will post film later, mircea_popescu asked for faces, will have - faces!!111 [18:48]
phf: "was hangover, didn't submit vote on time, can i submit the vote on thursday?" [18:49]
mircea_popescu: ahahaha phf has seen these before yes ? [18:53]
mircea_popescu: anyway, odds are first move of new "unified" govt is repeal of affordable care act, aka the tax-thats-not, aka obamacare. [18:54]
mircea_popescu: ryan moar than happy to, even unasked. trump gets a shitload of stalin halo effect, as it turns out. [18:55]
mircea_popescu: the trump in being. [18:55]
mircea_popescu: and of course hca down 10% [19:04]

pete_dushenski: KEYSTONE BITCHES [19:13]
mircea_popescu: prolly #1 on the "1trn in infrastructure expenditure" he's talking about. [19:13]
* pete_dushenski opens window to hear albertan cheers overtop of feminegro sobs [19:13]
mircea_popescu: oya. oil canada is by far the largest winner of trump victory. [19:14]
pete_dushenski: "THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing regulations must be eliminated" << beautiful. [19:14]
mircea_popescu: though it was pretty badly fucked before. [19:14]
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski not just beautiful, but copied off here lol. [19:14]
pete_dushenski: lel that, yes. [19:15]
pete_dushenski: i can't help but wonder what i did in a former life to deserve such luck, that everything in my life turns into sweet profits. [19:15]
pete_dushenski: i obviously fellated the right gods [19:16]
mircea_popescu: how do muslim women pray ? "thank you god for not making me a cow". and muslim men ? "thank you god for not making me a woman". and everyone else ? "thank you god for not making me muslim." [19:17]
pete_dushenski: lmao [19:17]
pete_dushenski: "thank you god for making me an infidel" [19:17]
pete_dushenski: i'm suddenly reminded of that scene in the simpsons where the mob boss tells bart that "crime doesn't pay" as he rolls up the tinted window on his limo and drives off smoking a fat cuban cigar. being an infidel is like being that mob bos innit. [19:19]
pete_dushenski: "Fully-funds the construction of a wall on our southern border with the full understanding that the country of Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such wall" << curious to see how this "dear mexico, you now have us debt" angle plays south of the border. [19:21]
phf: i did my time as TA, i've seen these people first hand [19:26]
mircea_popescu: sounds like it. [19:27]
mircea_popescu: though in fairness i did get hungover once in recent memory that was terrible. [19:28]
mircea_popescu: hangovers are unknown in civilised lands, such as transylvania. getting immensely drunk on the local stuff makes one's heart not in the slightest hurt. there's just this extremely pleasant mellowness the day following imbibing a liter of 52% tuica. [19:29]
mircea_popescu: however in this accursed land i invented a new champagne cocktail, out of this mint-ginger slushie lemonade they have. you just order a bottle and then pour it by degrees in the lemonade glass. [19:30]
mircea_popescu: except you know, three girls, six buckets and however many lemonades later.... o brother. [19:30]
phf: i feel hungover just from description. that's the kind of stuff they love here. actually Seacrets, the place that sluts like to go to in ocean city maryland, has this signature drink, that's a slushie, out of a slushie machine, but a significant amount of vodka in it [19:33]
mircea_popescu: champagne works better. vodka is too... contondent. [19:34]
mircea_popescu: plus, the froth spills. [19:34]
BingoBoingo: Apparently Trump is visiting the Trumpreichstag tomorrow. How much you wanna bet he pulls a trade mark "Illinois Governor" move and instead Presidents from the dark tower in NYC surrounded by ungrateful fucks. [19:37]
mircea_popescu: possible. [19:37]
mircea_popescu: it's universal in the lifecycle of decaying empires that the official capitol seat as depicted on coins is abandoned. and as alf correctly pointed out recently, even nopw it's more ceremonial than functional. [19:38]
BingoBoingo: AHA now that is a metric Illinois has been leading the US in for some time now. [19:39]
mircea_popescu: besides, very good signal for the rats. they were hurrdurring about how "he can't staff white house", implying that he'd care to. well... [19:39]
BingoBoingo: DC ceremonial because target. Springfield ceremonial because ChIraq [19:39]
mircea_popescu: ~same thing. [19:40]
BingoBoingo: Nah SPrinfield is safe. Just inconvenient when it comes to collecting 31337 bribes [19:41]
phf: they don't really do champagne in u.s. unless it's a bottle service kind of deal and then you get a krug or moet (actually more often clicquot or cristal). it's definitely a much nicer base for a lot of "entertaining" drinks [19:41]
mircea_popescu: the local stuff is actuallyt quite passible. [19:41]
mircea_popescu: and, importantly, very universally available. the last diner will be able to bring you a bottle if you order. [19:42]
ben_vulpes: rather nice bubbles can be had from the dundee area for ~25 usd/bottle [19:42]
phf: :o [19:42]
mircea_popescu: microbrew ? :D [19:42]
ben_vulpes: essentially! [19:42]
ben_vulpes: the apple liquor industry is spinning up as well. [19:43]
mircea_popescu: beer and cider i could trust in the usian louts [19:43]
mircea_popescu: but champagne's not easy. [19:43]
ben_vulpes: i had a mind-blowingly good pear brandy last week. [19:43]
phf: oh yeah, the whole popping bottles thing [19:43]
ben_vulpes: phf: popping bottles thing? [19:43]
mircea_popescu: only thing is - romania has splendid rose and actually red champagne. never saw it here. [19:44]
mircea_popescu: (romania has excellent wines - as far as whites go. the reds generally don't keep worth a shit, which is why it's not usually rated above france, notwithstanding wineries ~as old, of ~same quality) [19:44]
phf: ben_vulpes: blacks popularized champagne as a status symbol, so i can see it newly becoming a thing [19:46]
mircea_popescu: eh, it was doing ok as a status symbol even before qt's four rooms thing (which is what i suppose you mean by blacks ?). [19:47]
mircea_popescu: teh cafe society was fixated on it arguably to a larger degree. [19:47]
ben_vulpes: wilamette valley grapes are only just starting to mature in quantity. my wine guy does 3 single-plot vintages, we went through > 6 cases of the shit over the past year [19:47]
mircea_popescu: what's a single plot vintage ? [19:48]
ben_vulpes: probably the wrong name, but each of the wines came from grapes in a specific plot in a specific vineyard. [19:48]
BingoBoingo: phf: Whites popularized champagne, blacks popularized brands of champagne [19:48]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes how big is such a plot ? [19:49]
ben_vulpes: like "single origin" in coffee, but more like "single this acre or so of grapes from this other vineyard you already like" [19:49]
mircea_popescu: wtf is this, gardening [19:49]
phf: no no, there's a whole bunch of hiphop songs where they go "popping bottles" blah blah. means specifically opening bottle service champagne (usually cristal) [19:49]
ben_vulpes: eh, they're tended with the rest of the farm [19:49]
BingoBoingo: phf: Right, brand ALWAYS mentioned [19:49]
ben_vulpes: just...that varietal grown in that part of the farm. [19:49]
mircea_popescu: ahahaha. ben_vulpes you realise this is purely a marketing tactic of poor people, driven entirely by the fact that... they only OWN a tiny spot, and has no actual merit whatsoever ? [19:49]
ben_vulpes: doesn't even own it! [19:49]
mircea_popescu: good wine comes out of all-hill sort of vintages, wtf. [19:49]
mircea_popescu: phf did that retarded sword thing spread there too ? [19:50]
phf: BingoBoingo: nah, plenty of songs where it's not, though i agree that the brand is probably implied [19:50]
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But small plot because other hill has light taste of Hanford site [19:50]
BingoBoingo: <phf> BingoBoingo: nah, plenty of songs where it's not, though i agree that the brand is probably implied << Nah, this is endorsement fishing. Brand yet to be named [19:51]
mircea_popescu: heh did i tell the joke of the friar who could tell wine by a simple taste ? kind, year, often enough exact place in the vintage ? [19:51]
phf: sword thing? [19:52]
ben_vulpes: (guy also does a deliciously sacrilegious bubbly chardonnay) [19:52]
phf: also i'm pretty sure i heard that joke [19:53]
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: no? [19:53]
mircea_popescu: if you get a typical cavalry sword and run it against the bottle neck the last segment will detach with the cork attached or just the cork may fly off. [19:53]
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: wrong river [19:53]
mircea_popescu: how is chardonnay sacrilegious ?! [19:53]
phf: ah ah, no. the place would get shut down for having a sword in it [19:53]
mircea_popescu: was all the rage at some point idiotic as all fuck. [19:53]
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: But same air and I haven't seen the hydrological maps but could be interesting aquifier [19:54]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes : so in order to mess with him, they bring him fresh piss in a glass [19:54]
mircea_popescu: the guy takes a sip, rolls it around the tongue etc all pensive, then declares [19:54]
mircea_popescu: "bout 16, virgin, and not from any of the convents" [19:54]
phf: kek [19:55]
ben_vulpes: heh [19:55]
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: wind blows in from the coast, over wine country, and thence to hanford [19:55]
mircea_popescu: as it turns out, his REAL talent wasn't wine tasting. that was just... you know, like gay people sometimes channel their love of dressing up into an acting career. [19:55]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes anyway, for to enlighten and instruct : champagne proper (ie, in theregion) is mostly made of pinot and chardonnay. [19:56]
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: But does it do this ALL the time? How many nines in your 99.X% does it take to make the idea uncomfortable? [19:56]
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: aquifer is entirely different too, with dundee being on the wilamette and hanford being on the...columbia? [19:56]
BingoBoingo: Ah [19:56]
ben_vulpes: i-- [19:57]
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: no idea why it was recorded as being weird in my head. [19:57]
* BingoBoingo appologizes I live in real America where white people SMILED as they waited for the Great Again to happen [19:57]
mircea_popescu: lmao [19:57]
mircea_popescu: i thought you lot were a hateful spiteful warmongering bunch making the precious snowflakes of twitter etc feel not-safe [19:58]
mircea_popescu: and also fat and stuff. [19:58]
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: the nines are high. that's why there's a desert on the other side of the cascade range. [19:58]
mircea_popescu: back to france for a moment : so marine le pen, the chick that kicked the inventor of national front out because you know, he was getting in the way of "coabitation" with the bureaucracy cock what with his poking fun at the jew lobby and whatnot, was married to some guy who was the front secretary, and had three kids with him. [20:00]
mircea_popescu: then that guy was no longer the secretary, so she divorced him [20:00]
mircea_popescu: to marry the secretary [20:00]
mircea_popescu: whom then she divorced when he no longer was, to marry the new one. [20:00]
mircea_popescu: talk about dedication to cohabitation. [20:00]
mircea_popescu: (franch chauffroy eric lorio and louis aliot, for the name-oriented) [20:01]
BingoBoingo: lol anyways qntra called la pen long ago [20:01]

BingoBoingo: Anyways it was a rare sight today. Working white people rarely smile unless smiling is part of their work, and yet here they were. The Great Again hasn't happened yet, but you can bet they are eagerly waiting the Great Again. [20:05]
mircea_popescu: should be interesting if they don't actually get it. [20:05]
BingoBoingo: No one can know what happens during the Great Again. [20:12]
mircea_popescu: aha. [20:12]
BingoBoingo: 'Murican grammar can be tricky. Hence the expanded line of Mr. T: Make America, Great Again! [20:14]

BingoBoingo: Maybe Great is a feast of the Again? [20:17]
* BingoBoingo hasn't worked out the Theology of this quite yet. [20:19]
ben_vulpes: isn't not "actually getting it" the one thing voters are guaranteed? [20:25]
ben_vulpes: in america at least [20:26]
mats: pop pop [20:26]
BingoBoingo: Oh the Great Again will come, but no one can know the form Great Again chooses. [20:30]
