staying locked in while getting L’s is the real discipline

Two books (The Heroic Mindset and the unreleased Aristocratic Spirit) a paper on Mycenaean origins and their neolithic substrate culture, and an entire mindset framework of accomplishment based on Aristotelian principles- So much content incoming it's unreal.

@strawberrytoki Hard disagree. That's your opinion.

@Heroicmindset there is no purpose fit to use generative ai bro

using ai is not at all a heroic mindset

@wanted4mogging Horrible take

the reason ray peat and mike mentzer fans on this website have such a massive overlap is because....... their tennants appeal to the laziest impulses of people who want top level champion results with minimal discipline skip the gym and eat the most palettable foods, because this worked for everyone in the past trying to get jacked i'm sure. that's why everyone you see at the top of the sport with best muscle conditioning, natty or not, always tells you how EASY it is... right? it doesn't matter how many people have overwhelming success having to genuinely suffer for it, all it takes is one person to come coddle the laziness in people while also framing it in a way that appeals to their ego making them feel like they understand something the other goyim simply can't comprehend "i'm working smarter not harder" with the most unremarkable results, ego living in the idea of who they will theoretically eventually become if they continue down this path, and that image they made up in their mind validating their sense of achievement prematurely enough for them to think they have more authority on the subject than people with personal anecdotal evidence to the contrary eat your carbs sure, in fact eat a lot of them. eat your protein, train harder than the average retard in the gym, and when it stops working you probably have to train even harder. i'm sorry to telly you but raw honey and doing LESS than average is not what's gonna circumvent the effort required to stand out amongst top performers another day on x dot com rolling my eyes at fitness "advice" on here by people who have nothing outstanding to show for themselves, and if this post gets any traction i am surely to be barraged by people saying i just "don't get it" by the respective and overlapping communities of these two, who instead of making any of the discourse about actual results all just treat is as a dick measuring contest of who can most correctly memorize as much lore from their respective idol's teachings and using that as a perpetual discrediting mechanism towards their skeptics

Literally just having a delusional golden retriever mindset measurably changes outcomes and physiology. Sleep badly? Convince yourself you're well rested. Stressful day? Convince yourself it's fuel. Failed? Convince yourself it's useful data.

@strawberrytoki Well, we are at an impasse. Like I said before, I understand your aversion to it but we disagree fundamentally and I will not stop using it for the purposes that I see fit.

@Heroicmindset brother i am greek and honestly it pisses me off to see that people would rather use a machine to depict what my ancestors spent hours working on and still depicted even more beautifully

@HeraklesCithare In order to resolve the question, wouldn't you need to do a comparison with various other depictions of him in Roman and Greek art? I could post another fresco and say the same thing.

Eh bien voici une mosaïque « Achille chez Lycomède » qui résout définitivement les interrogations de certains sur la signification de « xanthos »

@strawberrytoki You have a bone to pick with AI, I get it, I really do, but I do not sell AI art. The AI genie is already out of the bottle- I am a writer and author- your bone to pick is with Sam Altman and all the AI tech handlers.

@Heroicmindset ai image generators steal the work of actual artists to be more accurate and consume a ton of water for cooling down that we CANNOT afford to spend . there have been articles about this since almost 2 years ago

@strawberrytoki I understand your aversion to AI as an artist, but I still use it. Also, the accuracy of depictions doesn't improve purely because someone did not generate something with AI. That requires historical knowledge of frescos, ancient Greek color, polychromy,archaogenetics and culture

@Heroicmindset if you want to talk about creativity, the best thing to do would be to start practicing art on your own, or use pictures of one of her statues that you can easily find on the internet and honour real people's creativity !! the depictions will also be a lot more accurate

@strawberrytoki Those are not colored. All ancient Greek statue was painted.

@Heroicmindset another tool at your disposal is your browser that will give you much more beautiful results way faster . i found all these in under a minute !!

@strawberrytoki So what? the message is important, one must use the tools at his disposal to bring about the enthiseasm needed for the new renaissance my entire message is aimed at.

@Heroicmindset if you used ai for the images on that post, it still means your work is helped by ai

It’s a shame that great minds of the last century so often passed off their theological ignorance as profundity. The world was made worse off by it and is now paying the price.

Its so tiresome that the unstated conclusion of all these insipid posts is "unlike me and my faction where we encourage you to post hitler edits and talk about how much you love cunny and how cool getting fucked in your thighs by Peter Theil is" It's this stupid tongue in cheek obvious lie that only works on someone who got here yesterday. They think it's so cheeky and clever. It boring and gay.

Roger Scruton, so good

@aas_ker Beef liver twice a week, and sunlight- as much as you can get. Also, mineral water with sea salt and lemon.

without drugs... what is the greatest weapon against anxiety and depression????

An unexpected side effect that travelling abroad in Greece had for my knowledge of the Classics was a better understanding of Aristophanes. Famously he used the onomatopoeia Βρεκεκέξ ("brekekekex") for the chorus of "The Frogs". In the ruins of ancient Dion, I heard them:

Deukalion, father of Idomeneus, the Cretan hero of the Trojan war, flirting with his future wife, Cleopatra, at a palace in BA Crete.
