New Time, i.e., modernity really begins with the original year zero: The supposed birth of Christ. This most radical incision, this cut into time itself.

It looks more like we're witnessing a great assimilation/integration, moreso than a replacement.

THE SEX LIVES OF BRAZILIANS 🇧🇷 Common stereotype about Brazil is that they are obsessed with sex. People are obsessed with sex everywhere you go of course (is normally impossible to scroll the X feed without some kind of softporn appearing) but Brazil how to put it… you know it’s like they say the Inuits have over 50 words for snow - in the same way Brazil has a lot of words for sex and relationships. Country has a reputation to effect of everybody there has the same level of sexual self-restraint as an average gay man, I don’t think this is quite true but it probably is true that there is at least a subset of hyper-promiscuous Brazilians and then importantly here that some of their behaviour is attributable to aspects of Brazilian culture. Qualifier is obviously incel culture and its variants exists in Brazil too but there is nonetheless (seems to me) an important kind of hyper-liberalness in Brazilian mores Can’t say why exactly could be a few reasons, could be the special, open nature of lusotropical society, could be the average IQ of the country, could be less social stigmas, could be the weather could be all or none of the above. Brazilian once mentioned to me offhandedly that politicians in Brasilia were known for ‘having a lot of sex parties’. Said “isn’t that something quite scandalous?” and got told no not really because it’s not considered remarkable here. Same way that there is supposedly less of a stigma around using a prostitute in Brazil, many Brazilians don’t really think anything of it. Some Brazilian men, within you know five minutes of meeting them they’d be pulling up the Instagram of a woman they were fucking or wanted to fuck and say “ahhh isn’t she hot I am fucking her / want to fuck her” and often she was but to the point, they would do this very quickly after meeting them, they were very forward about this with strangers. Nice to meet you too. Again this is all heterosexual and normal but overall impression you get is that for at least some Brazilians ‘sex culture’ is ‘more open’ like the stereotypes would have it As I say Brazil has a lot of unique terms for sex and relationships just as Inuits have terms for different consistencies of snow - think more evidence to the thesis, here are some examples: ‘Pegação’ - has several meanings but one of main ones is it refers to act of ‘making out’ with a lot of people. So at carnival or just on a night out you cruise around and you try to kiss five, ten people. The kissing of lots of people, you ‘get off’ on this a bit presumably. You ‘taste them with your mouth’ and then you move on? I don’t understand why you don’t just try to seal the deal for the evening at that point but it’s something some people enjoy doing ‘Ficante’ - this is basically just a situationship, having someone in your roster or harem and you don’t want to commit to them but maybe you text them and invite them over to bang once every week or so. Also though it’s a designator, you identify as a ‘ficante’, you can introduce yourself as a ‘ficante’ to someone ‘Cafuné’ - this means something like ‘to tenderly caress or stroke’, especially the head when lying with a partner. There is a specific word for this. Actually women would tell me Brazilian men are bipolar ‘lovebombers’ who yo-yo from incredibly sweet and tender and loving and romantic to hysterical and clingy to cold and distant as their mood takes them. Very expansive emotional ranges and this term belies that. “Brazilians have attachment styles like a manhole cover, they are very jealous and needy - but then also they all cheat too” one woman said ‘Beijeiro / Beijeira’ - ‘Kissing Bandit’ or thereabouts, someone who smothers you with kisses. To same point above, common enough that there is a term for it ‘Talarico’ - slang for a person who romantically pursues another person’s partner, particularly too if they are a friend. Means something like ‘homewrecker’, again common enough archetype that there is a term for it

Edtwt found a video of DurianRider and instead of taking his advice—eating a ton of carbs and staying lean—they’re predictably melting down over it being pseudoscience before returning to posting about how they have no energy and BPD. Learned helplessness.

Banning industrial production can generate unlimited artisanal labor demand, certainly if you include agriculture. You’re paying for it in productivity (unlimited). People want to be artisans, most can do it, and it’s good for them. Markets good. Guilds good. State workshops bad

the US navy took out an Iranian cargo ship, and is parked outside Hormuz, projecting military power across the globe. The Russians are in a deadlock with their neighbors. Very interesting.

They do get very angry. Masterful pivot. I was wondering how the Plan Trust would handle Bovino's statements. They relentlessly attacked people who insisted Trump is not doing nearly enough, and now it is just quietly admitted, I guess hoping people forget "trooning out" attacks

@Iain41742144 @CovfefeAnon The modern US economy is fucked. There is probably no profitable way to pay decent Americans to do those jobs. And highschoolers aren't the answer.

Jensen is telling us that the way to make money in AI is to reverse engineer other software. It's surreal. We're in the golden age of reverse engineering where markets reward piracy.
Dustin@r0ck3t23

Jensen Huang just told Silicon Valley it’s fighting on the wrong floor. Every boardroom in tech is locked on the same question. Which model wins. OpenAI or xAI. GPT or Claude. Grok or Gemini. Trillions moving on that bet alone. Huang zoomed out and showed them the whole building. Huang: “AI is actually essentially a five-layer cake.” Energy at the bottom. Chips above it. Cloud above that. Models next. Applications on top. Five layers. One war. Everyone crowded onto the fourth floor. Huang: “This is where most people think AI is.” He was pointing at the model layer. Every pitch deck. Every valuation. Every founder story. All packed onto one floor. One floor below the finish line. Three above the foundation. The middle of the building. Huang: “At the bottom is energy.” Not data. Not parameters. Not talent. Power. You cannot out-code the grid. You cannot train a frontier model with a press release. The smartest model on Earth still needs a dumb turbine spinning somewhere. The smartest engineers alive are building on top of someone else’s silicon, inside someone else’s cloud, powered by someone else’s electricity. They own nothing beneath them. Huang: “This layer on top ultimately is where economic benefit will happen.” Healthcare. Finance. Manufacturing. The only floors where AI actually meets money. Every dollar of real value lives at the top. Every physical constraint that decides who gets to play lives at the bottom. The model sits in between. Squeezed from above and below and owning neither end. Silicon Valley is burning hundreds of billions to build plumbing for somebody else’s economy. The basement decides if it runs. The penthouse decides if it pays. The companies building models think they are building the future. Huang just told them they are the middle layer in someone else’s cake.

@AcctPogo @FWPlayboy I go out all the time, and I still think it's a waste. I would much rather be resting, or doing something else, but I also like pussy. And there's nothing admirable about being in the dating culture. It's anything but sexy, it's sterile and neurotic.

Husband doesn’t give a fuck what the wife does. Remember MOST Men (apx 90%) are perfectly happy marrying the first girl they have sex with. Majority of Men are NOT that interested in dating, sex, marriage, or girls. In fact dating itself is a grind to them so they take the first girl they can get off the market. And they’re HAPPY to work get drunk/high and pursue their hobbies (porn, gambling, RC cars, hunting/fishing, etc). Down the road she’s bored and fucking around BUT he doesn’t want to DEAL with divorce, kids being neglected, being single again, financial strife, etc so it’s DO AS YOU PLEASE leave me ALONE! And you get this.

The Husband who’s Mom & Daughter KISSED Clav last night RESPONDED TO THE CLIP & says he is FINE with her CHEATING on him & also says it isn’t the FIRST TIME 😳😭💔
