Just watched Megyn Kelly being interviewed by Anderson Cooper on CNN, and she’s a very impressive woman, physically, cognitively, and emotionally.
I’ve long had respect for her because she’s one of the few “conservatives” to have opposed the Iraq war before it began, but I also have to admire the courage she’s showing in writing about Trump in her new book. You would think after the attack Trump unleashed on her when he was just a candidate for the Republican nomination, she’d be terrified of him. At the time she claims Trump unleashed his army of twitter followers on her, but pretty soon, he’ll have the full power of the Presidency, an institution that has become increasingly powerful in recent years.
On the other hand, standing up to Trump will make Megyn a hero to the millions of Americans who are devastated by him wining the Presidency and could send her book sales through the roof.
The phrase “unleashed his army of twitter followers” contains (implicitly) a great overstatement of the amount of control people have over their twitter followers.
One of the things I’ve learned since starting a blog is it’s often better to have stupid followers. You have more control over them, and that’s one of the advantages Trump had.
Mobs are fickle. They may seem reliable for a while, but it rarely lasts.
One of the Rules of the Internet is: The Internet is NOT your private army!
The mob can turn you on or it can turn on you.
What about Soros’s Rent-A-Mobs?
This third pres debate is by far the most substantive. Well done Chris Wallace.
The best way you can tell psychopaths is the measured cadence and empty rhetoric in their speech.
Hillary Clinton is just socially awkward and has mild Aspergers or something.
No, theres a difference. One is contrived. The other is genuine awkwardness:
See the uncertain body language. Fact spewing. Autists think other people think like autists. So lots of numbers and facts.
Its also more genuine speech.
Zuckergammaberg, if he wasn’t the CEO of Fuckface!
Hillary is sociopath
And neurotypicaks pretend to be good at theory of mind but they tend to be terribly imperfect.
Neirotypicqls also think that other people think like them or in better words, individuals without autism also committed the mistake to extrapolate their pre conceptions as if they were representative of reality, what I call partial empathy. People often put in the place of other but not in the minds of other.
Presidential “debates”(especially this one) are fucking atrocious. I have never seen bigger clusterfuck of stringed logical fallacies and rhetorical bullshit ever from both sides. the only evidence either produced for anything were anecdotes, and they argue back and forth like kindergartners. Constantly interrupting eachother, and spewing garbage only ignorant proles and bleeding heart liberals would believe. Anytime trump was in a corner he did his tried and true tactic: “I do___ the best, better than anyone ever, could.” Doesn’t elaborate with any coherent detail at all neither does hillary. It’s pathetic. American politics is a joke. 10 bucks says the fourth reich is upon us. He just hired a damn white nationalist and we all know how stupid those people are.
Yeah, I’ve never really done research into it but I get the idea is that a Sociopath is basically just a ‘really good actor’ who can methodically calculate what they need to do/portray, then do it.
A psychopath has a “chip on their shoulder” so to speak, and is more erratic.
Hillary has a chip on her shoulder but is not erratic.
Therefore I’d say Sociopath, as Santo said.
But most celebrities of any sort appear to be Sociopaths.
Yes celebrities are overwhelming anti social not necessarily socio or psychopath but still quite disgusting and nasty.
Sociopath in my view is like a emotional psychopath. Sociopaths are more emotional while psychopaths usually are very cold.
Sociopaths are more classically sensation seekers, extrovert. Hillary seems more psycho than socio. Sociopaths are on avg more authentic honest about their feelings. Psychos don’t. Psychos mimic magnetic personalities. Sociopaths ARE like that, they don’t need mimic their personality but they can of course lie about their qualities if they want.
I no have any evidence my views about socio and psychopathy are right.
Psychopaths are mind invaders.
“10 bucks says the fourth reich is upon us.”
It isn’t, Trump isn’t a fascist. He’s a civic nationalist. He gets shut in by the altright because he’s a civic nationalist. Even then, Germany was a great place during the Third Reich.
The media tells tons of lies about Trump. Don’t get me wrong I don’t like him either, but he’s not what the media makes him out to be.
People believe he wants to defend planned parenthood and put that money towards electroshock therapy for homosexuals. Wrong. People believe any garbage they see on Facebook and Twitter. They’re low IQ drones who believe anything MSNBC and CNN tells them. The perfect good goyim.
“He just hired a damn white nationalist and we all know how stupid those people are.
The Breitbart guy? He’s a conservative, he’s said some things sympathetizing with them, but a lot their rhetoric overlaps with traditional conservative American values.
Anyway he’s a Jew iirc, just like the treasury guy he chose, Steve Mnuchin, 17 year Goldman Sachs veteran. Business as usual, goy.
RR-
Breibart is obviously controlled opposition.
Milo Y= The Gay Jewish Nazi?
Lol
I’m just curious if you honestly think Mainstream Right IQs > Mainstream Left IQs?
Considering the mainstream right actually buys “gay Jewish Nazi” as a plausible notion really makes me think otherwise.
and at this point by “mainstream right” I mean non-Jew cynical NAM haters;
a la Trump’s base.
“I’m just curious if you honestly think Mainstream Right IQs > Mainstream Left IQs?”
Check this out from Dr. James Thompson last week:
http://drjamesthompson.blogspot.de/2016/11/election-special-are-republicans.html
I never claimed right to be more intelligent than left, just there was no huge gap. I changed my view on that though. Conservatives having more children while being religous is a nice sign of low IQ, while liberals are mostly atheist and have fewer children. The r/K traits line up nicely.
“Considering the mainstream right actually buys “gay Jewish Nazi” as a plausible notion really makes me think otherwise.”
He talks about sucking off blacks. So “alt-right”, so “fashy”.
Wonder what he thinks of the H-caust denial?
Wrong
Many higher IQ ones also believe everything media say and many lower and avg IQ ones Don’t believe…. Period.
Some to many people are (pseudo) hypnotizable or easily nurtured in their own intellectual weaknesses via nurture of their ego as well operational mode thinking.
“Even then, Germany was a great place during the Third Reich.”

Funniest thing I’ve read in a while.
Notice the way the article is about 300 words too long for a simple vide.
The verbiage is there to warp your NARR function.
Of course the media is controlled mostly by Jews, way out of proportion to their demographics…
Asserting that Jews control the media is a common theme among white supremacists.
notice that the truth or falsity of the proposition is ignored. that’s “journalism” in america.
the ONLY gentile media mogul in the US is murdoch. before him there was also kluge.
also notice that the author’s name is “sean sullivan”.
the ultimate cucks are the white gentile men who buy into the “jews are just another minority in a country ruled by Don Drapers” bullshit.
when they have the power jews exclude gentiles who think otherwise. thus jews have little competition in certain fields. they intentionally admit, hire, and prefer only gentile “useful idiots” and their fellow jews.
the deep reason for affirmative action.
Don Torpe’s inner circle is Jewish, if that’s significant.
His inlaws, not just the Kushner babyface, but his daughter in law Jr’s wife, is a Jewess.
i forgot ted turner, the mouth from the south. there’s also the Direct TV guy and the Netflix guy, but these are just “distributors”. they produce no content of their own. do they?
it’s true in finance too. schwab, peterffy, and bogle are all gentiles. when finance requires real work, that work is done by goyim.
another example: i believe trump is the sole gentile on the list of top 25 real estate developers in the US. ah, but who actually builds the buildings? all of the biggest construction firms are 100% gentile. bechtel sounds like a jewish name, but it’s not. jews are “successful”. they’re successful at being parasites.
I know you sometimes hate me for whatever reasons. But you and I agree that Jews are not creators, only usurpers among the dumb Anglo Proles.
Continental Euros managed to thrown them across the ocean and not see them ever again.
Only stupid goys do bidding for Jews, or profess that Jews are only a smart and successful minority. You and I agreed that they produce nothing.
hate you? i don’t know where you got that idea. or are you peepee? i do hate peepee. peepee is evil. she makes ted bundy look like al bundy.
You make al bundy look like al einstein
JS
German American descendents are Anglo dumbs too?
peepee makes super dave osborne (bob einstein) look like albert einstein.
You make super dave look like superman
Here is an example where PP often ignores about IQ and wealth in America:
Verbal IQ, creativity and one’s physical image are more important than hard skills (which are skill sets that are touted by groups like East Asians). I only say this, because America has run its course when it comes to skilled labor. We have glut of slaves offering their skill sets to make their CEOs richer. Acquiring wealth is only through fame and propaganda, not with one’s inherent ability.
* I have said this for ages: East Asians are discriminated in the Ivy League admissions, simply because of all these things or their inability to play this game. Smart Hispanics seem to get it where East Asians do not, and I believe certain Hispanics will surpass most Asians in wealth, like black athletes and celebrities have surpassed the average Asian in wealth.
I’ll be interested in learning more about the advantages and disadvantages of being dominate in either verbal or performance IQ. Does anyone else have any information on this topic?
In a surplus economy, acquiring wealth requires high verbal IQ. The technocratic efficiency of East Asians only adds a glut of slaves trying to serve their high verbal IQ masters. And I say technocratic efficiency, not technical originality.
Google mit comp science
Google harvard russian language.
Two barbell profiles there.
Notice how they look different.
What does your instinct tell you.
You knew the difference all along in your genes.
Just not abstractly.
Liberalism would profess that blacks in America are failures, because of a lack of opportunity, and East Asians have failed to emulate Jews, because they cannot physically mimic White gentiles. HBD explains in clear honesty that there are racial differences in behavior, besides eating, mating and sleeping.
i meant the DishNetwork guy…i don’t even have a tv. there’s also george lucas.
Noah, Norm or Noam Chomsky — called the Frenchman Jacques Lacan, a Charlatan among the Jewish science of Freudism. It’s really hypocrisy on his part. Most of his fellow Jews make a living by charlatizing. He’s only a sub-par MIT professor whose dry speaking engagement excites the pseudo intellectuals like Americans, essentially that’s what Jews do…tell dumb American goys to do their bidding. Most Jews are 2 faced, in fact most, like close to perfect.
is christianity any different from other jewish “movements” like marxism and freudianism?
it isn’t.
christianity ruined europe for 1000 years, and it’s still ruining europe and its diaspora.
isn’t islam the jews’ fault? it is!
without judaism there’d never have been islam, just like without hinduism there’d never have been buddhism…buddhism is really just yellow people hinduism.
buddhism was a movement within hinduism and was later swallowed by hinduism in india. buddhism survives as a putatively distinct religion only because its adherents are racially distinct from south asians/indians. the one exception is sri lanka.
jews by far are not a religious people, and judaism doesn’t impose fear on its members like Christianity and Islam. ultra-religious jews make mafiosos look like righteous men with their greasy habits. Christianity encourages reptenance from hell, Islam punishes evil doers with its Sharia, yet judaism does neither. Jews are not religious or needing to be pious, but ritualistic. They operate on legalistic procedures like Islam, however, unlike Islam, it does not impose fear on its miscreant members.
And East Asians in America fail for one reason. They lack the gift of gibberish talk — Harvard wants rhetorical sophists.
Poor ted got done out of nbc when the jews invited a friendly takeovet. Cnn was bought out as well.
Jews control the media not necessarily due to conspiracy.
Have you bot noticed?
Even unz and lion of the blog on the alt right. Or danger and play are jewish owned. In time, breitbart will have a jewish editor.
I disagree completely.
Jews are smarter than gentiles in the ways that matter.
Chomsky has written many years ago about the pravda nature of media. Unz has blown that up more. It often takes one of their tribe outside systema to analyse it. Likewise marx, lenin or even klein and krugman in relation to neoliberalism.
Verbal intelligence predicts media, wall street etc domination
To say jews contributed nothing to the street is a bit unfair. Kravis was a pioneer of the lbo. The men at solomon with securitisation. Rotschild with a n international banking network. Schiff, loeb etc in priate wealth management. Not to mention various academics like marowitz, ben graham and fisher. I also think soros has contributed much indirectly in his books and speeches.
Gebtiles like schwab and bogle innovated for the greater good but to be clear the wasp insider dealing den before martin luther king was not a golden era of honesty either.
It is unfair to characterise jews as sociopaths. Maybe more so than gentile but much less so than blacks, arabs or various central asian or some roma , slavic races. We only notice there genetic interest because they have so much power because of their ability.
Also sullivan is a common name for jews to gentilise themselves. Jake sullivan of clinton security adviser fame is jewish.
It is unfair to characterise jews as sociopaths. Maybe more so than gentile but much less so than blacks, arabs or various central asian or some roma , slavic races. We only notice there genetic interest because they have so much power because of their ability.
You could flip that argument around and say we only notice the alleged sociopathy of blacks, arabs, cental Asians, roma and Slavic races because of their lack of power.
It’s easier to play by the rules when you own the game.
Touche!
in canadian that’s spelled, “toosh, eh?”
Yet Israel, which is under the helm of the so called smart Jews is anything but a 1st world nation, either culturally or economically. Culturally, Israelis are more Arab than Jewish, even Ashkenazis in Israel dusted their Eastern European roots to embrace a Middle Eastern identity, because they suck as a people culturally, which is the same reason they masquerade as White gentiles in Western countries.
I’ve never been to Israel. I must visit someday.
more concern trolling from “the philosopher”.
building schwab, IB, and Vanguard was real work.
private equity and hedge funds is not real work. that’s why in 2012 it was mentioned repeatedly by those opposed to his election that mitt romney was NOT a businessman.
jews’ FSIQ and VIQ cannot explain their wealth. one would expect them to be over-represented in certain fields, but not nearly to the extent they are in finance, entertainment, and media. all of these fields are dependent on selling much more than other fields. even GOOG and FB are media companies in that all of their revenues are from ads.
that said, there is a jewish trait which might help them. jews talk too much. they have “the gift of gab”. but garrulity and VIQ are if anything negatively correlated in my experience.
My pet theory is that jews have selected for more behavioral traits that are found in the ”left handedness” spectrum, the classical antagonistic ”evolutionary strategic”…
while almost of other major human populations have selected for ”right handedness” psychological spectrum or correlations.
there are more left handed among them, more psychopaths, more adhd, more autistics, more lgbt people, schizophrenics, etc.. or not so.
Hollywood, media and wall street are very verbal loaded industries. Along with Law and academia which jews also dominate.
Chemicals, agribusiness, energy, manufacturing, electronics/hardware are much less so, hence Jews relative paucity there.
The problem is that gentiles are better in industries involving mastery of inanimate objects and jews in mastery over people (particularly their minds).
Doesn’t take a genius to figure out which skillset crosses over better into political power plays.
Romney is a good businessman.
Philodough doesn’t understand paucity in this context. Not only are Jews over-represented in verbal loaded phony tasks which they demonstrate very little talent, they are severely handicapped in anything that would be needed to sustain a civilization.
The last time I checked, Jews have almost no influence in many Euro Continental nations that do not establish a nexus with America, which is done willfully, to avoid any entanglements with sociopaths.
Jews have a stronghold in America, seemingly, because the average White gentile in American soil is a dreg in the old world.
I recently met a Jew, surprisingly at a philosophy conference, and he talked about his trip to Spain, and how Spaniards enjoy a relatively happy and healthy life, despite not having much, compared to the glut junk that Americans consume and hoard day in and day out. He was quite surprised, and wished Americans were the same. And this is coming from his people whose religion is that of usurping, materialism and ostentation.
Romney made his fortune when he was picked to head up Bain’s new private equity fund. He was hired by Bain right out of Harvard. Romney isn’t even an entrepreneur. He’s a hired man. And private equity is NOT business any more than philosophy is legal studies.
soros isn’t a businessman either. both romney and soros are better described as “investments managers”.
And yes, it’s true that Jews have mastery over many White gentiles in America.
In NYC, there are not many businesses as in bricks n mortar stores that employ a large contingent of White gentiles with the exception of this:
http://www.strandbooks.com/
Most White gentiles in NYC simply do not work in retail, because the work is either beneath them or most retail work have been taken up by blacks and Hispanics. The above bookstore is literally staffed by some of the dumbest pseudo intellectual morons that I’ve met in my life. No surprise that their bosses are Jewish.
Aren’t Spanish people desperate to immigrate to the US? I think America is still better off than Spain by most measures. How can you be happy on a paltry Spanish salary? Life sure would suck if I made less than $ 200,000.
Most of the people leaving Spain are native Spanish, but immigrants who came there and suddenly were out of work, and were forced to leave. Interestingly, they decided to head for the Anglo Prole Sphere Nations, where menial work is in plenitude.
* are not native Spanish….
israel is much like the US in that if it is included in the developed world it has the second highest incarceration rate and the second greatest level of inequality in the developed world, right behind the US.
less than 2% of individual americans make >= $200,000 per year.
JS honestly If I won the lottery, I’d leave the Anglo Prole Sphere for southern France or an Iberian village. Just chill, write poetry, paint, and fuck European bishes. There wouldn’t be any opulence. It would be a humble life. Anglo Prole Sphere is terrible for your physical and mental well being.
and the real level is likely 1%, because these income percentiles are based on the census and on tax returns. people may exaggerate when they answer the census questions, especially in america, and there’s no accounting for whether the income is recurring or inflated for the year. if someone sells his house his income is going to be a lot higher in the year he sells it.
even the census found that in america’s richest blocks…the upper east side facing central park, median household income was always < $300,000 per year.
75% of the 1% in income are business executives, doctors, or lawyers.
if your $200k is recurring you’ll be able to retire pretty soon even if your marginal rate is 50% unless you have kids or expensive “habits”.
it used to be the UK would let people in if they promised to invest 1 million GBPs, i don’t know about spain.
and you’re both right. by american standards the average spaniard and italian is poor, but they live longer than the average white american, so they probably don’t care. spain is actually a slightly richer country than italy now, and it was only in ca 2003 that italy started falling behind the UK and germany in per capita GDP (PPP). from 1970 to 2003 italy was actually a richer country than the UK and about as rich as germany.
I’m a law student at one of the top schools. I got a BIGLAW job I’ll be working at next year. Expected salary is around 200k. I’m 100k in the hole though. I’ll be working for a LONG time before I can retire. I need to win the fucking lottery so I can just gtfo before I develop a cocaine addiction.
Not to repeat my same old modus opera on this blog ever again:
American Proles have officially entered an era reminiscent of the dark ages. Western Civilization as a whole might be on the wane, but Americans are living in an age of crude barbarism along its technological medium. The entire nation is a cultural and intellectual wasteland. Trump triumphs over his rivals to accelerate the process into a dry husk. His only bright point, elicit the cavemen at the trailer parks to realize it.
an example of JS’s point is that although in terms of median household income spaniards and italians are poor compared to americans, in terms of median household wealth americans are poor compared to spaniards and italians. in fact by this measure the US is the poorest country in the developed world despite having near the highest median household income (PPP). if s korea and israel are considered developed they’re worse, but even greece and portugal are richer than the US. s korea is exactly like the US, tied with canada for median household income yet at the bottom for median household wealth. koreans must be nearly as shitty as americans. gangnam style!
Anglo American proles have been getting subliminal stockholm syndrome from their wealthy media moguls that trailer park trash in Alabama are a lot wealthier than a Madrileño, when in fact all of Europe’s urban middle class is robust and healthy, owning multiple real property and getting to travel during the summer. You would be lucky to get a 2 month resting period sight seeing the world in Prole Mundo of the USA, when your parasitic landlords suck all your hard earned money for rent or property taxes. Only roughly 20% of Americans own a passport to add to the misery.
I know this is true for a fact that a Sephardic Jew like Philodough knows Spain is wealthy and Amsterdam is also wealthy.
It’s based on what is the number of people who live in the home*
No make any sense Brownzil better than Svizzera/Switzerland/ Souisse/ Schweiz, 😉
Js crude characterisation of east asians is more reflective i think than his crude charactetisation of jews.
Ita hard maybe to unwind the fact that asian parents want their kids to specialise in technical things to get a strady job owing to the intense k selected competition in the heavenly kingdom. Left with free reign would it be as apparent? Probably.
Asians life in socities with little or no welfare and intense competition for surplus production work.
Asians know themselves they lack creativity associated with the schiz mind. That is the proce they pay for executing schiz criminals and deviants from the official line.
”Asians know themselves they lack creativity associated with the schiz mind”
schizo mind asians**
Asians know themselves they lack creativity associated with the schiz mind. That is the proce they pay for executing schiz criminals and deviants from the official line.
Rushton argued the alleged high East Asian mental stability had to do with extreme K selection for social organization, because r/K selection would also explain the low alleged mental stability of blacks.
Rushton also argued that brain size is correlated with creativity and that East Asian social institutions were the cause for their lack of creativity. He said with the social institutions lifted that they’d be more creative than Europeans, however it’s subjective and not objective.
East Asians tend to lack disagreeableness that is common among blacks, which is the social organization you are talking about. Creative and very smart people tend to exhibit this trait as well, which common among Caucasians, but not common for East Asians and blacks. East Asians are smart, but not very creative, and blacks tend to exhibit low brow creativity that you find in their music and art.
Both East Asians and Jews still have not defeated and surpassed the White man. I tend to exclude the Japanese from my discussions, because they are not a sizable demographic in Western nations, and they produce high quality products in their own land.
Anti-Semites hate Jews for a specific reason. They band together and strong arm like a group of vampires.
Culturally, these 2 groups are crude (since you mentioned this word), and their alleged success has nothing do with ingenuity, only riding the coattails of White ingenuity.
Japan is a very interesting exception to the rule. It may make me totally wrong on the above.
Yes, it should sink into your head that the Japanese are more Aryan than East Asian. I mentioned that I attended a book fair of old books and I saw no East Asian book dealers, except a few from Japan.
That’s also why they make “partnerships” with European/American Corporations and steal our inventions. Remember Qualcom got sued a BILLION DOLLARS for not letting China steal from them!
IQ measure the cognitive basis/potential and not how people will develop it.
So it’s like you have a big fortune but use it in stupid ways losing great part of it.
And if you have a little money and use it in efficient/smart and why not wise ways.
IQ measure the size of fortune, and not how you will develop it === intelligence.
Of course, the greatest will be your money greater will be your POTENTIAL to develop it in great ways…. but you can develop a little money in many interesting ways.
Instead only analyse IQ stuff, people on ”intelligence research” should analyse also the genes for real intelligence or how you work with their inherited skills/mode thinking.
”IQ tests don’t measure ‘creativity’ ”
well, creativity is more about achievement than mode thinking style. I thought perceptiveness is more correlated, semantically and practically speaking, with the pre-conditions that can predict creativity.
None born a creator, but most if not all of creators born invariably hyper-perceptive, in the ponctual or more broader ways.
Analyse and measure the ”attention to details” or perceptiveness may help people to predict creativity.
By now, unfortunately, we don’t know how creative can be autistics, namely high functioning types, because most of them are or sub-employed or unemployed.
Creativity achievement is based on the intuitive capture of ”unusual” or novel details of some stuff via attention to the details and generally it’s caused by ‘obsessive’ interests.
We know that seems overwhelming autistics tend to become a little expert in their areas of fixed interests, at university teacher levels, and without any educational intervention or training, just like self-taught.
”Deliberated practice” is a important component to the creative levels, when you are obsessively studying, thinking, playing with your ‘obsessive’ interests.
Is not all of intelectually obsessives who will be highly perceptive people. But seems almost of those who are both, will be very likely to produce creative achievements or at least with greater potential.
Also creative passion tend to be highly correlated with narcisism, even most of your jobs will not be popularized or even when you are too shy to desire your jobs become popularized.
This narcisistic will to become recognized or even only for itself, just like a personal challenge, may explain partially why autistics are not, by now, more creative, on avg, even they tend to have attention to the details, in my opinion, fundamentally colaborative trait to predict creative achievement.
Bizarrely I confuse job with work.
Creativity comes from imagination.
Ask an aspergers person to write a story from the following 7 words:
Robot, trailer, ashtray, duck, farm, cowboy, wasp.
Funnily enough, I would expect not the verbal intelligent person, but the muscially intelligent person to make the best stab at this.
”Funnily enough, I would expect not the verbal intelligent person, but the muscially intelligent person to make the best stab at this.”
Huh* Why**
It was Tuesday again. As Rick looked out the window his cigaret half way burnt out tips on the ashtray. As he noticed that he had hardly smoked any of it. He wondered has it really been this long since Sara had left him. It was cold that day and he did not know if he should go outside. The was hardly any point to it anymore. He knew that it had been days since he had to do anything for himself. It had been three weeks since he left the hospital. Just one sting from a wasp and now he was indoors just as he had been in the city. My luck, he thought. I win all this money and can finally live where I want and now I might as well be bedridden. He really wasn’t the cowboy he had imagined himself to be. He was too scared to leave the trailer he had dreamed of having for years. He now saw it as a trap. Rick started thinking about Sara again. Lighting a new cigaret that would burn out like the last one. Sara couldn’t understand why Rick preferred the simple life to one in the city. Sara was always the popular kid in school. She wanted to live the upper-class life. And now she could but not with Rick. The final nail in the coffin was when Rick took her to county fair. Rick had always loved how his dad took him to the duck races. He had a pet duck named Sam and now he longed for a new pet. When Sara came back from the food court and saw Eric, Ricks new friend, in the car that was it or her. They hadn’t bought a truck yet and the scene of a dirty duck in her Prius she couldn’t stand. Rick had a hard time with her after that. He knew she would rather be upper class than to be with him. Since is was not his money but just dumb luck his winning a contest, he gave her what she wanted. He gave her half the contest money. So now he was there alone on his property reminded of the doctor saying the next time his allergic reaction could be fatal. As he reached over to turn the radio on Clarence walked in. How’s Eric and Cindy. Rick said. They are doing well, I cleaned their cage and made sure the barn doors are shut properly so they will be warm tonight. Rick said to Clarence. I’m lucky I could afford you Clarence, I’m now a rich bedridden cowboy like I always wanted to be and it is good to have company. Clarence was the next generation of robot with intuitive emotional speech analysis. He knew rick was disappointed in himself. Rick, Clarence began. I know it’s hard without Sara and that you feel you can’t go outside anymore because of your condition but just wait until spring. My ability to detect high frequencies will allow my to prevent any wasp from coming near you in a ten-mile radius. I have placed sensors all through your property. I know how to set up the field for Eric and Cindy. I already registered you for the annual duck races. It is most likely you could find a female companion there. Rick felt uplifted as what Clarence said. Yes, he had loved Sara yet he knew that the next person he would love would love Eric and Cindy. Spring will be soon, he thought.
Damn philosopher, animekitty got you.
I enjoyed the story, AK. Well written.
Admirable attempt. Well done Cat.
But the characters think like children. And word bingo shouldn’t mean run on sentences with each of my words introduced as a new concept like a whack a mole machine making for jarring story transitions.
Great Iluminatticat!!! =) =)
Sara is a bitch. Rick, we are with you.
It’s a literary project**
It’s a good story…
The great American judge of all time , Cardozo, was a jew.
He was Sephardim, as in Spanish, and not the usual bergermankatzenstein.
I found out David Ricardo, economist was Sephardic today reading Piketty.
Also, of course, my avatar…Baruch Spinoza.
finally turner says what i’ve been saying for years.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2016-11-18/adair-turner-rethinking-workers-skill-sets-and-wages
this is something marx-ists have never understood, though marx understood it in part. capitalists do not understand this. their model of reality is based on the way things were not they way they have become.
lion’s comments on this topic started after my comments.
and this is one of the reasons why i still expect the long bond to have a ytm < 2% for most of the coming 5 years.
“greatest american judge” is like “greatest american professional wrestler”.
“Proof of negligence in the air, so to speak, will not do.”
Hear, hear!
Cardozo was a jurist par excellence.
