Euros are intolerable. They are a loser culture and countries. Most of the ones who come over to the 🇺🇸 are shitlibs. Same with Canada. I don’t want anyone except Afrikaans and thought criminals from UK allowed here. Eff the rest of Europe. Cucks.

"Steppin' Out" was inspired by the excitement of New York nightlife, where Joe Jackson lived after the divorce. It became his biggest hit in the US (#6 on the Billboard Hot 100)

The 1990's were amazing. Quality of life has gotten worse. You need to make so much money to live the kind of idyllic life that even poor kids like me had. Being poor always sucked, but you could still ride bikes, hang with friends, get some dime store candy. Much harder now.

The thing that many Boomers can't understand is that America is now a weak country. Our industry has been outsourced. Prostitution (OnlyFans) is the most lucrative profession for our girls. The birth rate has collapsed. The debt is growing at an alarming rate. All the institutions are anti-white. Our politicians are controlled by a foreign power. Savages kill and rob people on the street with impunity. Homosexuality is our highest value.

@realEstateTrent Haines falls

@realEstateTrent Bought a few acres two years ago on a creek in Hanes falls 💚

Also: $3M gets you a crazy house on 30 acres, and you’re under two hours from NYC. No brainer vs the Hamptons scene. Weekends should be about getting away - not a copy/paste of the NYC grind.

@realEstateTrent A dynamic I've noticed is millenial wealth is flooding into the hudson region, and hamptons remains boomer/elder coded.

It’s whitepilling actually in this sense: only European civilisation carries within itself the seeds of global mastery—the technical skill, the ambition, the daring. Young patriots across the West would do well to remember this.

@shagbark_hick My 3 acre plot between kaaterskill and north south lake. 🤍

I'd rather live on a quarter-acre by a babbling brook or a flowing river than on 100 acres without a river. It's worth it. The sound is cleansing, you sleep so well. You feel like Lao-Tzu sitting on the riverbank.

Heard this in AA years before I realized it was wu wei: “It's easier to act your way into new ways of thinking than it is to think your way into new ways of acting.”

People give you what they are, not what you deserve, what you deserve, you give to yourself.

We will eventually recognize this for what it was, the largest land invasion in the history of the world and a direct attack on our country and our people.

I'm in love with this sentence: “Forgive yourself for not knowing earlier what only time could teach.”

As Dostoevsky said, a man with no money and a woman without physical beauty both see the world without delusions.

America's dying hinterlands are depressing to some. To me, they appear to offer the greatest opportunities ever afforded a single generation in our nation's history - if we move carefully and deliberately. (a hopeful thread) 1/15

I know a lot of Millennials who work hard, have good careers but are only making it because their boomer parents give them money (which is very kind!) but I think there’s an upcoming economic crisis among white families once that capital is gone if we don’t fix our country!

@shagbark_hick I’d love to hear your thoughts on Andrew Camarata.

Case in point here is Upstate NY. This place should be a paradise. It's superlatively gorgeous -- maybe the most beautiful place east of the Mississippi -- and fertile. The housing's cheap, there are OK jobs, soil's fine, life is easy. But people here are MISERABLE. Daily interactions involve leering, awkward staring, cold shoulders, nervous energy. Loner-hermit types avoid others; elderly are crotchedy and skittish. DinerGoth types are lurking, vaping, being gay, mumbling to themselves in the Stewart's parking lot. No one's stopping to chat, no one's your friend, everyone is kind of tense in public. Guys are shooting up on the street in Watertown, Utica, even Tupper Lake. Any cop will tell you WEIRD, dark stories about what goes on here. The Kulak class is overtaxed; the State Workers dream of Florida once the pension hits. Young guys are all planning to move to South Carolina, Texas. Local government is a good old boys club for the dumbest, most cynical drunkards in each county. The whole vibe is "soviet." Except in lib enclaves, where the vibe is "tense, judgemental, 'in this house we believe', paranoid about MAGA, cloistered." And so this place is cheap, low-rent, undesirable. Gentrifiers try to come but they don't stay here. This place resists any attempt to "reinvigorate" it. The dysgenic darkness hangs over every inch of it; no amount of bright-eyed yuppies can fix it. Albany can't fix it. It's all graft, corruption, awkward stammering parochial nutcases wandering the streets in between disability checks. The residents of so many places here are the genetic remnants of those who didn't have the gumption or the brains to go West when the time came, and it shows. Literally the best move we have is to pay people to LEAVE. If I was the governor I'd allocate massive amounts of money towards this. I'd straight-up pay people to clear out, get out of here, move along. I'd pay their moving expenses, send them to Florida or whatever. And we'd flourish.

@shagbark_hick I just bought land up there in palenville in the mountains with a creek running through. It gorgeous but I agree with this post completely.
