24 years ago, when cult classic game Resident Evil was first released on the market, horror was a relatively unexplored theme in gaming. All previous attempts to establish an entertaining and popular horror-themed game had fallen short of the mark.
Resident Evil was therefore revolutionary, showing developers that with a little bit of imagination and outside of the box thinking, horror could be a successful video game theme. In the years since 1996 horror has become an established gaming genre with memorable titles released across all platforms.
Such is the popularity of horror games that it can be tough to separate the good from the bad and find a game that will truly get your blood pumping. Fortunately for you we’ve collated five of the very best horror themed games that you should be playing now and here they are…
#1 Until Dawn (PS4)
In the late 1990s and early 2000s it was impossible to take a trip to the cinema without seeing a trailer for yet another teen slasher movie. The theme was so popular that director Keenan Wayans chose to satirise it in his 2001 comedy release Scary Movie.
Weirdly the teen slasher craze never migrated from movies to games until 2015 when Supermassive Games released their eminently playable PS4 title Until Dawn. The game follows eight teenagers on a trip to a remote cabin up in the mountains.
They aren’t alone though, there’s a frightening presence amongst them intent on picking them off one by one and it’s up to you to make the decisions that will keep your character alive until dawn. The game manages to straddle the line between movie and game effortlessly and will keep you engaged and on the edge of your seat throughout.
Sony exclusive Until Dawn took the previously untapped teen slasher sub-genre to gaming back in 2015
#2 Nightmare on Elm Street (PC & Mobile)
Slot machines may not be best known for their integration of horror but this effort draws on a classic movie to get your blood pumping. Fans of the cult classic film will recognise all of the terrifying characters featured on the spinning reels.
Whereas spotting Freddy might be cause for concern in usual circumstances it is actually a good sing in this game as the vicious villain is the wild symbol. The slot’s successful integration of music and effects from the film helps to create a feeling of suspense and fear as you play.
Fortunately, your brush with Freddy Krueger can end well though with plenty of cash prizes on offer for players. If you’re not a slots aficionado and you want to earn some money while playing, check out this brilliant guide on how to win at slots before logging on to play.
Seeing Freddy Krueger usually means bad news but in this game you’ll be wishing for his icon to appear as when it does, it will bring money
#3 The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan (PS4, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch)
The success of Until Dawn inspired Supermassive Games to come up with another choice-based horror and this one is an absolute classic. Similarly, to its predecessor, The Dark Pictures follows a group of young adults who come up a cropper in a remote place.
The remote cabin in Until Dawn is replaced with a ghost ship in the South Pacific Sea where the characters worst dreams come to life. Again, your choices in the game influence the outcome of the story and determine who lives and who dies.
What makes The Dark Pictures better than Until Dawn is the interactive Shared Story and Movie Night modes which allow you to play along with your friends in a party.
If you liked Until Dawn you’ll love The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan
#4 Alien: Isolation (PC, PS4 & Xbox One)
The 1979 classic horror film Alien has inspired a series of video game spin-offs over the years, but none can shine a light to Alien: Isolation. Released six years ago this month, Alien: Isolation breathes fresh life into the Alien franchise making the Xenomorph terrifying once again.
In the game you take on the role of Amanda, daughter of Ellen Ripley and begin searching a derelict space station. Along the way you discover that the space station may not be as abandoned as once thought as you encounter the Xenomorph, the same fearsome creature that your Mother once fought.
What makes this game so terrifying to play isn’t the blood and thunder of the Xenomorph, rather it is the subtlety of the direction and the anxiety provoking stealth mode. The atmosphere cultivated by the game is a triumph, making it uncomfortable and engaging at the same time.
The Xenomorph was beginning to lose its fear factor until the release of this game in 2014
#5 Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (PC, PS4 & Xbox One)
At the beginning of this article we discussed how the 1996 release of Resident Evil revolutionised the gaming industry by successfully incorporating horror as a genre. In the near two-and-a-half decades since that first release the Resident Evil still rules the roost when it comes to terrifying, blood pumping horror games.
Three years ago, when Resident Evil 7 was released fans bought the game with trepidation, fearing that it could have been a clunky, forced revival of a cult classic series. Fortunately, their fears were misplaced as the game ended up being the best in the series so far.
Director Koshi Nakanishi called on a zeitgeist of horror films from the past two decades to create a gruelling and deeply unsettling game. There’s still enough nostalgia in the game to delight long-term fans of the series but Resident Evil 7 excels in its own right as a disturbing, modern horror game.
Resident Evil 7 is so terrifying that you might have to play it during the day, with the lights on and with other people in the house….

david graeber died. jimmy dore told me.
everyone should read his book. the moreintellectual TRS guys were saying the same thing in HYPERPODCASTISM and the Socity of the Spectacle. a point i made on lion’s many times and lion took up soon afterward with no credit because systemic discrimination against nazis.
the point is there’s an antinomy of sorts.
1. there’s a “moral” requirement that everyone work and people who work don’t want to pay for people who don’t work.
2. only about 20% of the people in the developed world do all the essential work, the work whoch makes 100% of everything that makes the developed world developed/rich.
so at any one time only about 50% of people are engaged in formal employment. “people” includes childers and old folks, not just the unemployed.
so this means the unemployment REALLY IS 60%.
but the “unemployed” includes MDs specializing in type ii diabetes and the entire company AAPL and TSLA.
so i thought i’d brought just enough cash and i left my debit and credit cards at home and find out i’m $0.05 short. missing quarter. i could bring 5 of the pennies collecting in my car “ashtray” for years, but that’s gross.
giant fat black guy behind the counter, new hire at the liquor store says, “God bless you brother.”
what an asshole. he’s served me at least 2x before when i paid with a card.
but my hair is crazy right now. i need to shave it.
this guy needs to be marsellus wallace in Pulp Fiction…except zed wins.
then i bought a wild salmon half (?) for $12 a pound at Safeway. it wasn’t the money.
so this specialty shop was selling salmon at $20 a pound but to get it at $7 a pound you had to buy the whole fish.
that seems weird. i mean i unnuhstan volume discounts, but 20 vs 7 seems too much.
apparently columbia coho can be yuge. they were yuge. john holmes level yuge.
the penis thing and the boobs thing are not the same. but they are similar.
so women get breast implants. why?
i presume it’s because they think they look better and look better to men.
no.
as with penises and vulvas and clits and veganism…
1. totally flat chested is gross WITH THE VERY IMPORTANT EXCEPTION that you’re a serious athlete and you just have low body fat…boobs are mostly fat.
2. dolly parton is NOT attractive to most men…but men are variable too…some men like that shit.
3. SHAPE…giant boobs are very saxy when they still have a great shape…but they almost never do…i don’t know cup sizes but in general the sexiest boobs are just average in size.
once again mugabe explains how sexual attraction is CONCRETE and not ABSTRACT and that sex for sex sake is a [redacted by pp, oct 18, 2020] invention.
i mean just because i see you and think “i wanna sex this girl” doesn’t mean you really want to…
or does it?
chimps act like a giant orgy.
WHERE THE FUCK IS MY COMMENT ABOUT COKE BOTTLE PENISES’ EFFECT ON THE BARTHOLIN’S GLANDS?
WTF?
i was drinking beer and this fat guy with a conjoined twin under his arm said, “suck my dick.”
i thought it was a joke or i was being hazed.
same guy i was saying, “you know that girl (i didn’t know her name) she’s grrrr-eat!”
he said, “but she doesn’t try. no make up.”
this day i realize…
he wasn’t joking. apparently gay is a real thing. but dude didn’t sound gay.
i know her name. her surname is from county kerry, the far southwest county of irleland.
i mean the ideal marriage is both spouses are super sexy physically, intellectually, and …
the “and…” part didn’t exist for most of human hsitory…
swipe right? left?
midgets do midgets. that’s what they do.
sad.
true gender equality means not blaming men for eveything…
anymore.
This guy’s innocence is an impressive thing.
Most of the most beautiful (white) women are intellectually average.
It is very difficult to find a woman who is beautiful (top 5 in beauty) and “genius” (top 5 in “intelligence” / creativity).
You are still in the infantile phase of finding that the appearance is absolutely better than the essence or of confusing them. How old are you?? At a mental age I already know. The person seems to live in another dimension. More concerned with appearance and, therefore, that maximizes her own beauty potential, women are, less likely to be intellectually exceptional. Hedy Lamarr seems more like the exception.
learn english!
the point is smart is sexy. this idea that men are turned off by smart women is just an excuse ugly women use. whereas the idea that money turns women on is not entirely false, is not just an excuse ugly men use. scratch the surface and we’re all still savages.
Tons of guys are into dumb women. As a gay man you can’t understand.
Lmao.
True shit. I prefer dumb bitches. Easier to control.
Of course I’d want my wifey to be smart though
Are you saying to me or Mugabe?
Mug of Pee
Thiswoman
smart
&
sexy
note to self: peepee is a very ugly woman.
dumb bitches would b nice to smash but if im trying to breed i would go with the smart asian woman. I don’t know if it’s even smart to breed though nowadays since all of our technological “experts” predict an apocalyptic singularity and we can already see a degradation of morale across the globe. I guess statistics say having kids makes u less likely to commit suicide and i guess if it gives ur life meaning than it might be worth having one even if the world goes to shit. Are any of u gonna procreate?
afaik…afaict…
no candidate or nominee has ever mentioned ANIMAL RIGHTS…
booker and biden have mentioned “trans women of color”, but never animals.
CONSPICUOUS!
it’s conspicuous with the fake nazis of TRS too.
if you’re not an “animal rights extremist” then you’re ignorant or evil or both.
Are you vegan ?? I’m a vegetarian. The more Marxist the progressive is, the more he despises animal rights for human rights. It is a false dichotomy like yours. But social justice activists tend to be so fool that they turn fallacy of false dichotomy into reality. Of course, they are mostly white and Jewish, and they follow white ideologies (ideologies forged by the overlapping opinions of their authors about a possible objective understanding of reality manipulating it to pass as a “philosophical clarification”.
Yes, you are sure that there is no debate about this, especially on the “right” side but also on the other side. The republican party is the shit and the democrat is the shit lite.
i try to be a vegan plus wild seafood or farmed oysters, but sometimes i have to cheat so as not to appear weird. seafood does NOT include seals or dolphins or whales like japanes people eat. grrr-oss.
check it out…
(or was she gettin’ some penis on the side?)
Jenkins and his wife had six children, four boys and two girls.
but this just confirms the animals. there are NO gay animals. but there are lots of BI animals.
Bisexuals are half gay, half animal. Some or many species are hermaphrodites. Do not worry.
kojeve said…
“marx is God and ford is his prophet.”
dear God!
so many wish that was true.
in reality marx was a self-hating IDEALIST.
his metaphysics was the greatest contribution since aquinas…
his economics was better than neo-liberalism by a country mile…
but too capitalist.
Poor Engels
he couldn’t type.

Mug would like this article. The main assessment is that peoples’ cognitive abilities peak at 35 and decline after 45.
A part of the research done in this article pointed out that chess moves have become more sophisticated over the last 125 years. This is an interesting point because my assumption is that over that time period, the number of chess players has increased so the per capita intelligence of people (not to mention the absolute intelligence) has probably increased over time.
Very interesting article.

I am just not computer smart. It feels like my brain is functionally lopsided. I am a slow thinker. I am not fast enough to do programming. I can understand fine but it takes time. Mah is the same. Like I have ADD or something.
I am better with reasoning. Spatial, Verbal. I get most of my ideas that way.
Creativity is putting things together. I can do that. but in a simple abstract way.
Intelligence is manipulation capacity, I do not have much or it is very narrow.
I want to do stuff but my brain just stops?
Holding a thought is difficult.
So I am left with nothing to do.
The same thing happened after I graduated high school.
I got super depressed and everything seemed pointless.
I am smart enough to know I am dumb but average enough to know I’m average.
Because of the tests I know I have a learning disability.
It is hard to do complex learning on my own.
And keeping myself occupied is a hassle since my brain stops all the time.
What I need is a more accurate assessment of my abilities.
Focus on strengths, not weaknesses.
Advocates of Schedule I, II, & IV drug legalization need to give up their retarded fantasy that making that shit legal won’t lead to a huge uptick in abuse.
Relying on a dealer puts a pretty low upper bound on how hard you can fuck yourself up because logistics and price.
If the dispensary started selling 2-for-1 eight balls for $75, you’d have to be a fucking retard to believe that the number of cokeheads wouldn’t skyrocket.
Acknowledging the above is still compatible with advocating legalization if you believe that taking business from the cartels and putting fewer druggies in jail is worth an increase in the number of abusers. But berniebros and the ACLU are too fucking retarded [or [redacted by pp, oct 20, 2020]] to think like that.
i’m not too retarded to think that.
as soon as so-called “street drugs” have the imprimatur of govt or the USDA and FDA the illegal business dies stat.
PLUS mugabe believes that drug addiction is NOT caused by drugs but by people having shitty lives in a shitty society.
so when drugs can’t be blamed, more pressure to fix the shittiness.
if you buy the APA’s or the APA’s theory of addiction then you’re a moron.
people stop being addicts whenever they have a good enough reason to. so said the author of Trainspotting. and southern scotland is the poorest part of the uk.
Trainspotting does not take place in glasgow you fucktard. it takes place in edinburgh, which is rich by uk standards for places not london.
I think certain drugs should be illegal. But if weed is illegal then I don’t understand why tobacco gets a pass. I would personally only ban hard drugs.
Marijuana is not even a real drug. It’s a natural herb.
but a big thing is there were drugies in the USSR too.
what neither side gets is the human condition, knowing you’re gonna die, means however un-shitty the society some people will still be addicts.
huxley called this whole thing “soma”.
what was the vedas’ “soma”?
i think some have claimed it’s just phenylephrine.

america was a dead man walking as soon as it repudiated its britishness…
but then the british empire died amd america re-made britain in its own image…
are there any imperialists left?

I have a very good insight into what the life of someone 1 or 2 sds below the mean is like. That person is my dad. I’m living at home right now and I’ve observed him. His mind needs so little stimulation he sits on his armchair for 3 or 4 hours every morning staring into the wall in silence. Sometimes he might read his prayerbook or listen to the radio. For the rest of the day he will watch free to air tv and if you question him on what hes watching he won’t even know.
I’m in the camp the people with dementia should be allowed to euthanise but now I’m starting to entertain whether really dumb people live a better quality of life. When you are that dumb and you’ve got no sense its a very limited type of life in my opinion.
yes. but i believe animals do suffer. sometimes horribly.
Im in favour of the nanny state. But not to the extent of Chris Langan. I think there should be some pro intelligence type public policies. The church did a good job for over a thousand years limiting the amount of inbreeding (although jews are a very notable exception where inbreeding actually increased IQ).
There is no Nanny State. Social democracy is like any complex society should be. Otherwise, what we will have will be the outbreak of a society like apartheid, in which workers live in bantustans. A company for a parasitic elite disguised as a nation. Postmodernists are right about the effect of words on our understanding. Nanny state is a pejorative way probably thought by conservative psychopaths to disparage rationally based societies. In the same way that we call the lower class working class. This is a point of view of those at the top of the social pyramid, because if we look at society from a panoramic perspective, we will realize that the working class supports the entire pyramid because there are no entrepreneurs without employees. The ideal is to call it the basal class.
langan is pro nanny state?
i’m pro taxes on empty calories/junk food and subsidies for fruits and vegetables. bloomberg was right to tax soda for example. obesity is a problem everywhere, not just ‘mer’ca. australians are fat. it’s gross and obviously “personal responsibility” doesn’t work in the anglo-prole-sphere. but one reason for obesity is food is a drug for a lot of people, people who don’t do other drugs. and when people are worried about money the caveman instinct is to eat because famine is coming.
my theory is that it is literally impossible to get fat on a paleo diet. but this diet is expensive. it’s so expensive that it would have to be mostly vegan. but it takes decades for orchards to be productive and “plant every wheat field with almond trees” doesn’t work in north dakota.
btw, despite peepee’s calling me schizo, the doctor says i don’t have celiac and my h pylori is gone.
‘mer’cans think they can buy something to make them thin or that being thin requires “self-discipline”. absurd. thin is how God made you…after the baby fat.
the problem is a toxic environment, both in terms of food and psyche.
where are the obese wild animals?
although jews are a very notable exception
pill still snowballing the jews.
sad.
how many smart people have you known? how many were jews?
how many jews have you known? how many were smart?

knowledge IQ does not measure intelligence but measures cultural exposer.
let’s say 15 questions are asked. is that the only thing a person should be evaluated on? What if I never read sherlock home but did read 20 Issac Asimov books. (300 pages each) what does that say about my knowledge IQ.
The problem with IQ statistics is that KIQ has a low sample rate. Where are the pokemon questions for god’s sake? (not sarcasm)
Which pokemon is 151?
I got 140 on KIQ – How am I supposed to know if that is accurate or not?
Narrow KIQ like knowing everything about trains would grant someone 170 train IQ.
Factor analysis only works with a large sample size. 0.7 in height makes me 20 inches shorter than I actually am. instead, it should be 0.99 – height is off by half an inch then.
For accuracy, Factor analysis needs at least a 0.99 coefficient.
Lots of narrow things need to be included in factor analysis.
My sister’s drawing IQ is at least 140. My drawing IQ is 70. (a 4yo or 5yo)
People try and separate intelligence and creativity. I think this is a mistake. Including creativity, my IQ shoots up a whole lot. I am creative in some way that is at least 155 narrow. I simplify things, make them more clear. I have been working on a.i. 20 years looking at it from different angles seeing better ways of accomplishing it. I have ideas on a.i. no one has thought of but me. Many creative people specialize. the notion of only g counts is misguided.
With big data, sample sizes are increasing. Computers can measure the raw data of people’s actual accomplishments. a.i.. will replace tests in determining actual IQ.
It measures exposure and retention, too. I assume long-term memory correlates pretty strongly with IQ.
A few years ago I was convinced that ultraconservatives were of a bad character but at least they were on average the best at detecting dangers, due to their attitudes towards multiculturalism and mass immigration policies. With this pandemic, I realized one thing in common in their reasonability in relation to the problem of uncontrolled immigration and the complete lack of rationality in relation to the problem of the new coronavirus: pride. It has nothing to do with instinctive capacity for detecting dangers but with pride, for fear of losing territory to other peoples and that they are fleeing from a microscopic creature.
I think it has more to do with who? whom? than anything else.
So-called ultraconservatives don’t like wearing masks because Rush Limbaugh told them “that’s what the Liberal Elites do.” They don’t like mass immigration because the Democrats support it.
Genuine nativism is actually pretty rare in the U.S. My conservative relatives, for example, never, ever talk about demographic change. They only bring up illegal immigration to Own The Libs.
Conservatives have generally lived in super white areas their whole lives (and still do), so losing territory to the Huddled Masses isn’t really on their radar.
However, as Sailer has pointed out, the current system in the U.S. of white benefactors subsidizing nonwhite beneficiaries will ultimately collapse under the weight of nonwhite numbers.
Whitey can’t continue to subsidize Tyrone and José if he’s outnumbered 2-to-1.
At this point, white racial consciousness will really start to form.
People often have layers of reasons for acting this or another way.
Superficially speaking, yes, the tribal instinct to listen only to those of the tribe.
However, the underlying reason is pride. Do you really think that a white guy who lives in the interior of the USA is not worried that the Hispanic wave might one day arrive in his small town ?? And do you think that ultras only live in red America? Many live between the liberal coasts and the deepest interior.
You are referring to the typical conservative. This is really not very good at abstract reasoning. I’m talking about the ultraconservative. Even many ordinary conservatives share similar anxieties with right wing extremists, but they are not to verbalize.
They do not want to lose territory to other men. As for the coronavirus, they do not want to follow orders from liberal authorities (many of whom are women), but also because they feel humiliated for hiding from the virus. Men, more than women, do not like going to doctors and doing preventive work on their health. Pride.
I am very inclined to see conservatives in a very negative way but, I don’t think it’s possible that they don’t like immigration just because liberals support it. It seems too stupid to be true. I’ve debated with many conservatives and anecdotally speaking they don’t seem to argue against mass immigration just because their ideological opponents do.
Are you arguing that all the rhetoric of “invasion of non-whites in Europe, the USA or Australia” is not based on the fear of losing territorial dominance to men of other races and cultures ??
Donald Trump was elected mainly because he promised to build a wall to contain Hispanic immigrants …
Santo is kinda right, some of it is pride. But its hard for Santo to understand because he doesn’t have a heterosexual reptilian like brain. The reason we use words like ‘infestation’ and ‘rats’ to describe illegals is because we get feelings of disgust. Pride is some of it, but personal pride. Most of the time there really isn’t a ‘reason’. Its instinct. You either have it or you don’t. I remember I’ve had it all my life and it got more acute when I started lifting weights and living in London surrounded by third worlders. In fact it went into overdrive.
Santo is trying to intellectualise something thats not intellectual. Do you have an intellectual reason you prefer coke to pepsi. Its a ridiculous line of questioning imo.
Pride or ego and instinct are very close. And I live in a third world country. Never forget that. There is no “heterosexual reptilian brain”. I have little to do with most homosexuals. They like signs, travel and dating … Me? (just dating) I have the potential to be more psychopathic than you. The difference is that it is dangerous and counterproductive to let your instincts flow freely, especially if you have the ability to control them. I am not eliminating other reasons for them to behave this way. Just thinking of one more, whether more important or not. Your only explanation for human behavior is instincts??
Intellectual reason or justification is also based on the potentially objective analysis of your own actions, even the most trivial ones. You can list a number of reasons, including moral, cultural and historical reasons for preferring pepsi to coke. For example, pepsi has historically been the coke of the black working classes in the United States. If you have a genuinely socialist sympathy for this ethnic-social subgroup, you can rationalize your choice for pepsi from this company’s history, which is more open to the inclusion of minorities in its advertising.
Pill puts the word reason in quotes and next to instinct immaculately. I don’t understand how you still define yourself as a philosopher while denying the main tool of philosophy.
Personal pride tends to be related to collective types such as racial. But if you are black then you are not being able to understand ultraconservative whites.
Every rational process begins with a dialogue with instincts.
What would be intellectual for you ??
I just found a common point with two opposing events or approaches in ponderation/reasonableness.
Every thought is intellectualized.
yes. the very fact that a constant din of propaganda from all media except fox is required to suppress these instincts is evidence they can’t be suppressed. in fact it makes things worse. white people feel uncomfortable around blacks partly because they’ve been conditioned to feel guilt. guilt is an unpleasant feeling.
the heart knows what the mind cannot understand.
santo’s identity is an invention of late 20th c capitalism. homosexual acts occured in ancient greece, but homosexuals didn’t exist. today all the various identities are just ways of distracting people from the shittiness of the system and the evil of the people who rule them, so instead of worrying about making ends meet, some can be suckered into perversions and neurosis about their perversions and blaming people without perversions for their unhappiness and economic insecurity.
intellectualize = treating the abstract as the concrete.
I could just as easily say worrying about low income losers like you is a distraction for genuine discrimination against santo
Collectively speaking, whites enslaved blacks for 4 consecutive centuries. If they need conditioning from the media to recognize this, it is because there is something deeply wrong with the European psyche. But that is not it. Whites are not the same. The most empathetic are naturally likely to be ashamed (not necessarily guilty..) by their awareness of the historical role of their people. White liberals would not feel any sense of guilt if their ancestors had not done so much shit with themselves and around the world. The partial change in the central narrative of the “white nations” is another factor. Because it was the consensus of the authorities centuries ago that “witches” had to be burned at the stake does not mean that everyone agreed.
Waiting half of my comments…
Mugabe is so mediocre that he doesn’t believe he has as many identities as I do. He must think that identities are just stuff of the modern left. It is not enough to have a high IQ, you also need to know how to use it. If Greeks or Japaneses did not name a specific set of acts, this does not mean that they do not exist as identities. Identity is not just what you are. And it’s very suspicious for him to say that. Perhaps he/believed that performing such an act does not make him identify with it.
Another problem with his shallow reasoning is to think that homosexuality and transsexuality are the same. Of course, they are similar but have many differences. The struggle of homosexuals has been to be recognized as such without it being considered a disease, sin or perversion. On the other hand, transsexuals, on average, want others to identify them for what they are not, because they deny their own androgyny in favor of an artificial hormonal aproximation.
Still try to understand where are half of my comments PP.
Do you will censor my next comments too
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellect
Mugabe is a typical right-wing psychotic who relies on his own opinions only to supposedly analyze reality objectively.
Did he try to ask LGBT people or even try to experience what it’s like to be LGBT in a homophobic society ??
Nope.
A person who is not able to differentiate personal opinion from fact is an intellectually mediocre like you, Mugabe, no matter how stellar your IQ is.
Another basic problem related to low-quality intelligence of Mugabe is the inability to accept a complexity of factors that corroborate both narratives,partially.
Lgbts have always been/harshly discriminated against in Western societies?? Evident. Has that decreased ?? Of course. Has this decreased so much that there is no longer even a trace of prejudice ?? No. Are certain behaviors of certain Lgbt’s subgroups a non-extrinsic factor for some/many common problems among us? Certainly. I’m just accepting facts.
Does homophobia contribute to escape behaviors such as alcoholism and drug use?? Certainly. Does homophobia contribute to the incidence of anxiety, depression and suicide?? Certainly.
One of the reasons for always commenting again/here is that I love to debate.
One of the reasons for always leaving here is that it is always the same thing and people who are not qualified to debate with resourcefullness and precision on most of the most popular subjects here.
A person who thinks heidegger is worthy of attention and devotion has no idea what philosophy really consists of.
I’ve been going to Tinder so much that my approval about gays has been falling a lot. That is why I feel that I am immune from stupid comments on this subject, for now.
But what irritates me most is stubborn stupidity. There’s plenty of it around here too.
Mugabe’s autism does not allow him to realize that posting pictures of muscular, handsome men is not the attitude of heterosexual men.
I think all your comments are there now if you look
Pill, there is no such thing as a reptilian male brain. Because I am a homosexual does not mean that I cannot understand other minds. Only if I were like you. In fact, I am not a typical homosexual. This should be obvious, from the first years I started commenting here. Your example is not quite equivalent. Still, I can choose pepsi for reasons other than taste. If you are suggesting that you and others do not want immigrants just because you dislike them then you are invalidating your own positions … just sayin
Mug
Pollitical identities for me
Not for you
Always the same shit
Pumpkin, what really is verbal ability. In most fields where verbal ability is required (History, Philosophy, Literature), there seems to be pure creativity involved in all of these.
Whites don’t mix. They disappear.
I remember reading a study into musical taste and IQ. Apparently this guy is what a lot of high IQ people listen to. He came out top in fact.
Not bad.
Nice turn of the century feel.
There were a lot of bands like this, very briefly in the early 2000s. This sounds alot like Goldfrapp or Arcade Fire to me. Very nostalgic music.
You sound so pretentious every time you speak, Pill. Try shutting the hell up for once.
one of the levels of The Vow is how the whole thing could only take place in a post scarcity society with a false ideology…
that is, NXIVM was never selling anything.
and this because the system of formal education is run by useless people. virtue signalling is their only dividend.
school should be shop class at least 50% of the time. and the other 50% should be mostly labs.
so in american public schools, or mine, there’s a progression in time with grades. the freshmen read anglo-saxon poems and shaq-speer-chucker and the seniors read ezra pound.
the whole lot of english classes should’ve been the history of the refrigerator.
surprised greenwald is anti hunter biden.
hunter biden looks and sounds like a…
looks and voice he’s a motherfucker.
the brain is the problem.
Biden is corrupt. Him being on the board of a Ukrainian energy company is evidence enough.
why is peepee not pimping The Vow.
great movie on so many levels.
when ugly dogs bother my irish setter he does this:
and they leave him alone.
no black criminal can look this scary.
whites are better at being evil.
Scary??
That’s because whites are more evil.
But looking evil and being intimidating are two different things.
Black criminals are more intimidating than white ones.
MeLo is absolutely right, whites are evil and sadistic but blacks are far more intimidating and scarier than any white person can even imagine themselves being. I’d take my chances with this guy than walking in the hood at night. Not to mention that the average black is far more violent and aggressive than the toughest and most sadistic white person is.
Mug have you ever heard of Leopold and Loeb, the two brilliant young adults who murdered an innocent kid in the 30s or sum’n? One of them was brutally murdered in jail. The other became a renowned ornithologist and was very respected in his field until his death in prison.
The point I’m making here is that whites are cowards who have sadistic tendencies and blacks are far more aggressive and scarier than any white man on this planet. I dunno about all the testosterone research that goes on but I’d wager blacks have larger test spurts than any other race on the planet and can thus unleash hellfire onto their victims.
Just my two cents….but that two cents can be invested to make millions of dollars with this framework.
bulger was also an animal lover of sorts.
to be a sociopath rather than just act like a sociopath in some ways you have to demonstrate cruelty to animals.
so as peterson inter alia have commented, the nazis were NOT sociopaths.
Nazi propaganda ?? Nazis wanted to recreate extinct prehistoric animals to hunt them. They were and are crazy. Only Hitler who called himself a vegetarian. This does not mean that he was exceptionally wise JUST for that.
so someone, due to experience or economic necessity, can become callous to human suffering…because humans have hurt him, humans are his competitors, etc.
but domesticated animals usually pose no threat. they won’t hurt you. they don’t compete with you.
so a soldier of the great war can gas his enemy and adopt his enemy’s dog. and there’s no contradiction.
hitler was gassed with mustard gas.
Are you suggesting that when the Nazis invaded and destroyed European cities, they spared all animals and were vegan ??
In a lot of my dreams I’m confused about where Im going in life and I ask characters in the dreams for their opinions hoping they have some sort of supernatural wisdom. Most of the time they speak nonsense. Right now I have my ideal life – easy sinecure, play games all day and my mental health is relatively under control. I can go on holiday whenever (pandemic permitting) and I would say I’m still a good looking man despite living like a slob for the past 3 years. Anyway, in the dreams I reflect on my waking life and feel like I need a mission.
Just spent 2 hours doing the last boss in Doom. Probably the toughest boss fight I’ve had in years. Only got it with a lot of luck. Either the standard of gamers is extremely good or I’m getting slower…

if trump wins any one of the three states he won by razor thin margins in 2016, pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, then he’ll win…barely.
that is if any of these fall to the orange monster then a lot of other states will have fallen.
gundlach says he expects polls are biased in the high single digits for biden. adams says a significant fraction of people have lied about their vote or intended vote.
my vote for president doesn’t count so i voted for howie long…i mean sadie hawkins…i mean that weirdo from sf with a souther accent.
Mug of Pee hates identity politics because it doesn’t benefit white trash like him. What an evil bastard
Although the MEGA test has been widely criticized as not having been properly validated, the 1989 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records (the last to include a category for Highest IQ[23]) described the Hoeflin Research Group as “the most exclusive ultrahigh IQ society,” and identified Raniere, Marilyn vos Savant, and Eric Hart as the highest-scoring members of the group.[24][25][26][12]
another level of The Vow is how fake it is.
it’s like herzog’s Incident at Loch Ness.
but part of the fakeness is like my dad described kubrik’s last movie [redacted by pp, oct 23, 2020]…
i know upstate ny real estate is super cheap, but…
i think two of the characters are posed in other people’s houses.

Pumpkin, where’s my response to Mug!
It’s there now
I still can’t stand how rr said a.i. was impossible because: “philosophy”?
Thinking/reasoning is somehow categorized as separate from computation.
cybernetics does not make sense to him.
self-regulation makes no sense to him.
evolution makes no sense to him.
reasoning beings just happened not by evolution, not by brains.
rr thinks logic proves disproves everything. that it is the only way to make sense of things. no idea how common sense works. ugh.
That’s because RR isn’t actually that knowledgeable on Philosophy.
Or to put it into his own words his knowledge is “sophomoric”. He understands it enough to want to use argumentation as a tool for theoretical creativity but then he overreaches and believes priori arguments have more weight than they actually do. Don’t know why but idealists and moral realists tend to make this error.
AI will of course happen no matter how much him and other…”philosophers” kick and scream about the opposite.
”Don’t know why but idealists and moral realists tend to make this error”
ALL??
No, not all santo.
hye pumpkin, is there any new research on bilingual shit. Also, whats your opinion on Biden?
who else hates identity politics?
steve hsu and his black friend corey washington.
why?
because they’re white trash.
mugabe, what do you think of abortion?
PP, When are you getting married?
absolute dumpster fire comments section
Processing speed is about absorbing information and reacting to it as an instruction set. High PS follow instructions fast. It is visual.
Low reaction time means poor visual skills.
Spatial skills and visual skills function in two different brain regions.
In me the difference between them is 38 points.
More than 20 points is a learning disability.
I react to things slow. But spatially I can handle complex shapes.
complexity > speed
It is a problem I am trying to solve.
Watching the new Borat movie. What a strange movie.
what do you think re Giuliani? haven’t had the stomach to sit through it yet.
I haven’t been able to enjoy any of SBC’s comedy ever since I realized that he pretty much does it just to stick it his ethnic enemies.
Theres a lot of jokes about antisemitism. Giuliani…comes across as a bit sleazy.
I heard it’s not as good as the first because it isn’t structured like a mockumentary.
arguing with the 99.999% reminds me of an old video game. the name that comes to mind is Starblaster…is that it?
idk…
the point is it’s a “cirlcles upon cirlcles/mandela…i mean mandala” and you have to get to The Heart of the Matter = こゝろ
