@Mach_Tactics I put communication through AI and ask it to write at a 7th grade level. I think it sounds ridiculous but it’s definitely more effective.

A 130 IQ man can learn to talk at a 90 IQ level, for the sake of appealing to the roughly 100 IQ masses. A 90 IQ man can NEVER learn to talk at a 130 IQ level. Smart people can learn to talk dumb. Dumb people cannot learn to talk smart.

@GameSlushPile @KemalOnor Blood Meridian: How many scalping and mule bones can be put into a book?

@KemalOnor Cormac McCarthy can suck it. The Road was drivel.

Have you ever read a popular book so poorly written that it makes you mad?

@miltonappl3 We all should

Jordan Peterson should have read the Bible more.

@RogerJStoneJr Who is the artist?

@CryptoTice_ Speaking of the nation’s wealth, I’ve been out of the loop. Did we get to see the gold in Fort Knox like they said?

BREAKING: Trump just signed it. The U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund. By executive order. America is about to do what Norway. Saudi Arabia. Singapore. UAE have done for decades. Take national wealth. Invest it. Grow it. Forever. Norway's sovereign wealth fund: $1,700,000,000,000. America's: just getting started. - The U.S. government already said it will never sell its Bitcoin. - The U.S. Treasury Secretary calls Bitcoin a payment rail. - The U.S. SEC Chair says all markets will be on-chain within two years. Now a U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund. What do you think they're going to put in it.

@BonesawMD The weeds grow for free but fruit doesn’t come without toil and pain.

This applies to every aspect of life. If you have no discernment in what enters your space you are penetrated by all that is hideous and ugly. Beauty that exists above your current state requires your effort and sacrifice to experience it.

@JPBozzallini @TetragrammaDoom @RonDeSantis No, why?

@Cosmicamygdala @TetragrammaDoom @RonDeSantis Is this Fred Durst?

Ramones are not better than Zeppelin.

When I was a teenager, my brother and I had a garage band with one of our buddies. I couldn’t afford an amp, so we hauled my dad’s Marantz hi-fi out to the garage and rigged up the wiring so I could plug my guitar straight into it. The second we fired it up, it sounded awesome, warm, rich, and way bigger than anything I’d ever played through. We jumped right into the only song we knew “Iron Man” by Black Sabbath. I should probably mention we were raised in a pretty strict conservative Christian family. Anyway, we were about halfway through the song, tearing it up through the warmest, most goosebump inducing tone my axe had ever produced, when the stereo let out a loud pop…and promptly burst into flames. If my parents didn’t already think we were playing devil music, that pretty much sealed the deal.

@RonDeSantis No! Johnny Ramone was a guitarist that influenced more people to pick a guitar than Jimmy Page, and Johnny was a truly American patriot. Zeppelin don’t invented a genre like the Ramones or Black Sabbath. Period! 🫡🫡🫡🫡

@hollowearthterf I used to think it wasn’t testosterone. I thought that it was the way a guy moved, how calm he was, confidence, and emotional regulation. Turns out, most of those things happen naturally when a guy has high testosterone.

@SIGMAPROFESSOR They don’t mean actual intelligence. They mean they want a guy they can converse with. Women equate intelligence with whatever they’re interested in. It is a subjective opinion, not an objective view of intelligence.

women aren’t drawn to intelligence the way they like to pretend. honestly, most people don’t even like intelligent men. and the intelligent man himself, if he’s actually aware, won’t worship his own mind either. because intelligence isn’t something sacred to be worshipped, it’s just a tool. it’s meant to be used, not admired. to serve your life, maybe even others, not to sit there and expect validation for existing. people don’t admire intelligence as much as they claim and they don't need to and they are right. they envy it, resent it, or feel threatened by it. it creates distance more than attraction. and intelligence doesn’t earn you love. it just shows you things you might’ve been better off not seeing.

If you were anything like me, you would start looking through books or the encyclopedia and immediately get sidetracked into another subject. Often, you would find a new thing to love. I believe it helped me to be able to connect a wide range of topics more naturally than instant, specific answers would have.

When I was a kid, I heard this song called "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys. You might have heard of it. The Beach Boys sing that there's this island off of the Florida Keys called Kokomo and it's dreamy and filled with romance and leisure. When the song was written, and when I heard it in the early 90s, you probably wouldn't know if Kokomo was a real place or not. Maybe if you were really into geography or you went to the library and you looked it up in a reference book. Today you ask Siri if it was real and then you would go on with your life like the question never existed. I am starting to think the ability to learn any fact you want has been a net loss in human civilization and even more devastating, for the human mind.

@ThatEricAlper Shitty appliances stem directly from Barak Obama’s EPA mandates in 2009.

@Porkchop_EXP Because their vibe can silence rooms and their looks could charm their way out of murder charges, some men hide behind anonymous accounts because they want their ideas to stand on merit alone.

There isn’t a single large female account on here that is entirely anonymous or that we don’t know what they look like - women yearn to be accepted for who they are. Men, on the other hand, are entirely comfortable hiding behind a completely made up online persona. Men are the LARPing gender.

@thecathguy @allie__voss The asshole jock and the rich buffoon are beloved stereotypes for a reason. We love to see flaws in people who’ve demonstrated proficiency in life. It helps us to feel like things are more fairly divided than we fear.

Growing up includes realizing that the popular jocky frat bros are usually popular because they’re cool and fun to hang out with and that nerds are often not diamonds in the rough and are rather unpleasant and off putting in character as well as appearance.

@dreameater8871 @hollowearthterf Imagine you are a prison guard. Would you prefer to guard an inmate that is strong and trustworthy or a weak one that is duplicitous?

@dreameater8871 @hollowearthterf Here’s a rhetorical question. Would you rather empower women or weaken men?

@dreameater8871 @hollowearthterf I won’t have you running women down like that. Sticking up for abusers and shaming victims…..for shame.

@dreameater8871 @hollowearthterf I’ve seen the dynamic many times in many relationships and others have too. Why do you think they open shelters? Because women don’t get manipulated by men? Grow up.

@pfau Love the artist first. Then the art. Finally the artifact. That’s the order of importance.

I just wrote a novel that is word-for-word identical to Don Quixote. Please describe, in as much detail as possible, what makes this inferior to a real Cervantes novel.

@hollowearthterf For women, a man can be lazy if he meets two requirements: He is decisive He is not desperate to have sex with women A guy like this can get women to work tirelessly for him.
