| Apr-05-20 | | Big Pawn: <Tga>, indeed, a perfect "right on cue" moment, just like I had. The libs are utterly tone deaf. I think it helps to remember that they cannot see what you see; what we see. It's like a man who drank a potion that makes trees invisible to him but he's unaware that he drank such a potion. His friends all drink it too. Soon, half the people can't see the trees, even though you both stand right in front of one. Their MSM writes the headlines they love to read, <There is no evidence that any trees exist.> <Study Shows The Smartest People are Atreeists.> It's not a mental issue, it's a spiritual one. When their hearts change, they wake up and see everything. |

| Apr-05-20 | | Big Pawn: <tga: They want tall, handsome, strong, and most of all, charming> heh no wonder the chicks have always loved me. I am tall, handsome, strong (used to be stronger lol) and most of all, no lie, I am extremely charming indeed. I think my charm comes through loud and clear on these pages in fact. When I was younger I had an interest in getting better at picking up chicks and I got good at it. Over time, I changed as a person and lost interest in that sort of thing. I have to say though, that I find PUA culture to be somewhat repugnant, and at the very least at odds with my overall worldview. It doesn't find time in my life because I have other priorities that take most of my time and direct most of my attention. PUA culture does have some apparent overlap with straight up old fashioned conservative values, but only some overlap, not a lot. For instance, PUA is quite aware of the evils of feminism. They hate weak men. They understand that a man needs to be a man. They understand that a man should be confident, and if he's not, he needs to change his attitude so he can develop confidence and then have it naturally. PUA culture also seems to have some overlap, interestingly enough, with the so-called Alt-Right. They tend to be nationalists and they support white advocacy to some degree (speaking of white PUA culture obviously). In this overlap with the Alt-Right, there is one part that I don't like and that is the <JOO HATE!> part. Not all PUA is into the <JOO HATE!>, but there's enough of it for me to notice at least. I think most PUA types are voting for The Great White Hope (disambiguation: Not Jerry Quarry) because they respect a true alpha male, a strong leader, a man who wants borders, a man against globalism and a man who wants to stop the browning of America. PUA culture also illuminates some otherwise gray areas of knowledge concerning the observation of male and female attraction and interaction. The focus is extremely narrow and specialized, which produces information of great depth and profundity in this area. There are powerful truths to be learned! I wouldn't advise anyone to spend any time in the PUA culture though, because it makes sex the top priority sooner or later, if you spend enough time with such people. You start to pick up their ways of thinking and their attitudes. The next thing you know, picking up chicks is number one if your life and you start to hang out with other PUA. This is pure hedonism, which was at the root of Epicureanism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicu... As I get older, I want to be more and more sanctified and less hedonistic, so I can't spend any time in the PUA culture. |

I think it helps to remember that they cannot see what you see; what we see. > I'd say, rather than remembering that, I couldn't forget it if I tried. When <aw> says that the MSM is as unbiased and objective as they can be, given such and such circumstances, the fact he can't see how biased they are is pushed right in front of me and cannot be ignored or dismissed. |

| Apr-06-20 | | Big Pawn: Quote of the week 4-6-20
"A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment; and yet I feel that I never was a greater artist than now. When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary, I throw myself down among the tall grass by the trickling stream; and, as I lie close to the earth, a thousand unknown plants are noticed by me: when I hear the buzz of the little world among the stalks, and grow familiar with the countless indescribable forms of the insects and flies, then I feel the presence of the Almighty, who formed us in his own image, and the breath of that universal love which bears and sustains us, as it floats around us in an eternity of bliss; and then, my friend, when darkness overspreads my eyes, and heaven and earth seem to dwell in my soul and absorb its power, like the form of a beloved mistress, then I often think with longing, Oh, would I could describe these conceptions, could impress upon paper all that is living so full and warm within me, that it might be the mirror of my soul, as my soul is the mirror of the infinite God! O my friend — but it is too much for my strength — I sink under the weight of the splendour of these visions!”

| Apr-10-20 | | optimal play: <Suffering with the Saints> https://www.crisismagazine.com/2020... <And you wonder why libs love muzzies?> The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Muzzies hate Christians.
Libs hate Christians.
Therefore, libs love muzzies.
The only problem with this "love match" is the gays. Muzzies hate gays but libs love gays.
At the moment their common hatred of Christians outweighs their differences over gays, but from time to time we've seen some minor clashes between the muzzies and libs over gays, so it's an uneasy alliance. |

 | | Troller: <I believe in the A-theory of time, tensed time, which Einstein presupposes in his special theory of relativity, even though he is basically arguing that time is relative. I will have to check out some of Bergson's writings. Do you have anything specific in mind where I should start?> Very belated answer but with no chess taking place I rarely visit the site these days. Bergson is known to be elusive (often criticized for "muddling") and indeed it is not always easy to clearly grasp his meaning. As I recall he recaps a lot in <Durée et simultanéité> in the light of the Einstein's advances, so this might be a good work to get an idea of his philosophy. <Liberalism is, at its core, about being "liberated" from God. That is, liberalism is about rebelling against God and as such, Satan was the very first liberal.> This thought of the week dates back several weeks, I am not the only one not so active here I gather. But it got me to think of <Paradise Lost>; this is a Puritan work if there ever was one, yet the "hero" (in the sense of protagonist) of the poem can be seen as Satan. This is of course also because Milton needs a dramatic engine, hence he scrutinizes Satan and his character in detail. |

| Apr-22-20 | | Big Pawn: <Troller> thank you for your recommendations. Your post is interesting and informative. I'll check out paradise lost. |

| Apr-24-20 | | Big Pawn: <Philosophical thought of the week 4-24-20> Atheism shoulders the burden of proof just as theism does, but there are no good reasons to think that atheism is true. This is why modern atheists have attempted to redefine atheism to mean agnosticism. In this way the atheist can still call himself an atheist but he avoids the burden of proof. In reality, atheists have abandoned atheism altogether, conceding much significant ground, and have moved a long, long way to the right, now resettling in agnosticism. In this new position of theirs, like it or not, if they're going to "live" there, they have to be willing to say, "Yes, it is possible God exists", and that's a long way from home for the atheist at heart. |
