Good. Anti-immigration will increasingly become a bourgeois thing and not just the grievance of the workers.
It'd be interesting to see how things develop as immigration costs the jobs of say architects and geologists instead of labourers and machinists. I doubt even the Germans have the discipline and organisation to compete against the world's billions on equal terms. Even the inferiority complex of the Germans is no match for that of the non-western world(an inferiority complex which even the most westernised immigrants retain).
Then it's a good job so many women prefer cats. Or love those yappy little spoilt dogs which to all intents and purposes may as well be a cat. Either way, she's the one being owned.
Choosing a seat on an airplane says about you that you don't mind being fired into the air at hundreds of mph in a tin can filled with other people's farts.
Absolutely. When it comes to marriage and setting up a family I do have a fear of failure. Always wondering if I can be better, or she can be better, to prevent it from going wrong.
I don't usually talk about my problems but when I do I know I don't shut up. Thanks for listening.
I do worry about everything being just right because I don't want there to be any future resentments. My fear is ultimately divorce. Once I'm married with kids I will continue to eat those sprouts no matter what. Me and my Brother are just the same coming from a messy, broken background. We both have the ironclad will to avoid divorce and the children growing up in a broken home at all costs. And today that means that I expect perfection(or near as dammit)although there may never be that perfect chance.
For me that would be a case of same difference(except a bit closer to my family). And for her it would be a lot worse. It'd be more of a loss overall to meet halfway.
She's a lawyer. And she worked Pro Bono for 'The Innocence Project'(it's like Amnesty)so she'd be the type to want to punish a man like Putin. Who'd have thought that someone like me would end up with a lawyer, and a do-gooder lawyer at that?
My expertise is engineering. I could sabotage Russia's gas network if that's any good to you?
Yea, it's about 100 miles. And I'm much more able to move than she is because she's tied to her employer for the foreseeable whereas I can setup wherever(within reason). But it's still not beneficial for me to move.
Ideally I'd like to keep it long distance for the next couple of years, but her biological clock ticks faster than mine and it'd be more of a loss to her career to leave her job 3 years from now instead of in the next 12 months.
Thanks for the advice girls. The thing is I know that if I don't move in or finish with her she will wait for me and put her own plans on hold. She's a lawyer so she's well-paid - we both are, money is not really an issue and materially I could move in - she just wants to knock out a couple of kids before she's 30 and then go back to work when the youngest is 3 or 4. I like this idea.
But our missions are clashing. She will put my mission first if I force it but it'll cost her and then there's no guarantee that I'll ever return the favour. Finishing with her would seem cruel but also the kindest thing to do(unless I move in).
You and me both. I'm starting to feel like I'm dating a sprout now actually. Not that I don't love her, but she is wanting to make me do something I don't want to do(or, more importantly, when I don't want to do it)which is move in with her some 100 miles away nowhere near my family or where my customer base is.
My desire(or part of it)is to stay around Manchester making money, establishing myself, and gallivanting around like a lothario. My conscious, however, believes as she does in settling down and having kids at a healthy age and being respectable. My modern, degenerate self-interested half is warring with my noble and traditional pro-civilisation half and it's put me in a bad mood for about two weeks. I don't know, am I just refusing to grow up if I finish with her?
Truth, but if there was no other option but sprouts then I would eat my sprouts and even come to tell myself that I like sprouts.
And the same goes for love. If you've no other option, then being with someone you hate and doing the things that you loathe is the price you have to pay to avoid loneliness.
Exactly. You can choose not to pursue what you love. And you can also build a tolerance for the thing that you hate(many relationships work like this).
Love is a matter of taste. And to tell your heart who to love is as effective as telling your tongue what it likes to eat. Rationally speaking I should like the taste of sprouts but I don't, they're the foul taste of an entire cabbage condensed into one less nutritious miniature form, not to mention they ruin a Christmas dinner.
Now as soon as people talk about being rational in love they're doing the same as I am with my sprouts. I don't actually feel any love for the sprout, I simply eat it anyway because I think it's for a greater good.
The West should try to use this as a pretext for war. We're no match for the Chinese academically or productively, but militarily we'd stand a chance of not losing. Brutal open warfare is the only way now that the White race could stay on top, but we don't hate foreigners enough to do this.
So it's a case of goodnight my children's children, you've an early start in the morning before your 14-hour day assembling water pistols.
I'm exaggerating of course. Still, my favie people do tend to be high-proles. Streetwise and skilled but not criminal, dumb or perpetually on welfare, these are the people I have the greatest connection with and respect for.
I have a problem with everyone not from the upper working class. I like intelligent blue collars and that's about it. Everyone above is gay and everyone beneath is thick.
At least that's one possible destiny - a destiny which is the logical conclusion of the enlightenment, what some people are calling "The Dark Enlightenment".
But this may not actually be the destiny as who is to say that science and reason will reign in the future when in many respects these have been driven into a corner over the prior decades by the Baby Boomers. Equality? Political Correctness? These are gospel beliefs. There's no valid scientific evidence to say that the races are equal or that the differences between the genders are caused by society. No, these anti-scientific tenets of faith believed in for their perceived harmonising effect(a perception which is in fact nothing more than shallow moralising).
So we have a "choice" of which way to go. Do we follow the second religiousness of the Baby Boomers or do we pick up where the enlightenment left off after WWII and take it to its inevitably dark conclusion?
And if we think that affluent, educated and intelligent people can be cunning and devious today then it'll be even worse in the coming decades of increasingly scientific morality. By the year 2050 I expect that you will not be able to trust anybody with an IQ over 90. Only those dumb enough to believe in their false perceptions will have any inherent decency to their character.
The rebuttal of free will will be similar to what happened when we stopped believing in Heaven and Hell and the afterlife. When people believed in these things, that they would be judged at the end of their life for everything they did in their life, then this determined that people would have a much stronger sense of responsibility.
But since we lost the belief in the Heaven and Hell people have become far more devious, infantile and shady. Up until this time people felt responsible for their actions even when nobody else was watching(because God was watching), yet after this time, for many people, doing bad was only a bad thing if you got caught.
I expect the same thing to happen when we no longer believe in free will because people won't feel responsible for their actions even when people are watching. Scientifically defeating the illusion of free will will usher in the ugliest of fates. Humanity degenerates with every advance.
I don't believe you have a choice(in the truest sense of that word)in anything as all is destiny and time is an illusion. Not that this makes any practical day-to-day difference because you have no idea what that destiny is until it happens so the perception of choice remains.
And the perception of choice is an important delusion. The philosophical challenge as we continue to prove that free will doesn't exist is to retain the practical illusion that it does. Destiny would take a sharp turn for the worse if we lose the idea that you're not responsible for your actions even though this is technically the truth. Can we handle the truth? Can we handle their being no free will without turning into children?
What bothers me how some people think they can celebrate Christmas whenever they want to. We do it the right way here on the 25th December, but in Russia they celebrate it on January the 7th and in parts of the Middle East their Christmas is on September the 11th.
Admittedly this may depend on why you're being bullied. This will work if you're bullied for being different like I was when I lived in Wales(who hate the English)or when I lived in Stoke which is full of Muslims(who hate everyone). These lads strangely enough give you a wide berth once you've given one of theirs a good kicking.
But this won't work on natural victims I don't think because they'd never be able to carry it off. If you've got weak parents or you're just a natural goof then it's probably best that you hide in your mum's/teacher's skirts.
