Well I might go camping now and then, I am white after all. But keeping rural Pakistan in the countryside is best policy to fight climate change, have them there rather than here consuming everything and recycling nothing with a baby on the way and appetite to bulldoze every national park in the country to make way for his extended family.
Conscious that somebody is watching because nobody is?
I don’t know if anybody else has been neighboured with a cat lady, but one time the ball went over the fence and we never heard the end of it. She seemed to enter what can only be described as a siege mentality. To me the male equivalent is believing you’re the main focus of government or alien attention.
One explanation could be the fixation on privacy from the people who attract no one. Or maybe she’s married.
Often found in their 30s or on council estates, the woman willing to fall pregnant by anybody so long as it happens this year. There’s the stench of desperation in the air and it isn’t you.
And it’s a dicey mechanism for every third dollar coming for free. Cheap credit and loans that should never be pay your way.
Even the right realised some years ago that the value of most people’s labour was too low and you needed a way to spread wealth around in a billionaires economy. It’s one reason to support earned income tax credits which many on the right do. Now every third dollar coming for free was a little rich but you still have a distribution problem set to get worse with the onset of automation and AI. Main Street could not survive without a little socialism.
Bankers, farmers and most of your small businesses are subsidised. And then by extension so is everybody else. Your bureaucracy is massive also.
But all these bureaucrats and inflated income become your profit margins and market. The customers you have and the prices you charge go up and effectively you’re all accustomed to every third dollar coming for free. Even the best of business captures more market than it merits.
And remember it doesn’t matter how short or bald you are or how one-sided and frankly rigged the early stages of dating a woman is, the line is it’s not ideal.
You could be hiv+ and crippled from the neck down, the line is it’s not ideal.
Don’t whine about your personal problems. You can moan about the world in an abstract sense - and I strongly suggest the blame for things falls on neither you nor her but on something immaterial like the ether. The ether is to blame - but you can’t whine about your personal problems. The traditional guys guy beats the modern man here.
A quality that looks like confidence, but functions more like courage. Contrary to appearances you are making an effort we must not equate effortlessness with making no effort. True confidence won't do what needs to be done. She likes to see you squirm a little most women are not as pro-psychopath as they sound, they like to have at least some influence over you. Find that happy medium between trying too hard and being completely unattainable.
It's some rich, some poor. Although you're the bigger personality you are not the main focus of attention. From the poor you take a bit of rough with the masculine ideal that you are expendable without beggars can't be choosers, and from the rich you take importance and indifference the turning of the tables and the feminine side. A willingness to stick your neck out and parry the blows(taken from the poor)combined with higher standards without the being so easily upset. You need to be choosy, but unlike the choosy so often are you must be able to cope with circumstance you didn't choose.
Sit up straight is a timeless one. Doesn't matter what time in the evening it is or which face of your personality you are showing there are some constants in the variety of contrast women love, good posture is one of them. Although in reality you could be a starving artist, not looking or feeling like a poor person is key. The reality that you are poor wouldn't matter until it comes to marriage. You're more of a somebody than her no matter the money.
You don't care about losing the upfront investment because you're loaded.
That's the character. On the one hand you're putting in more effort than she puts into you(especially early on), but it doesnt matter if you don't get paid because you have plenty of reserves already. You have plenty of other women. Singledom is the context where man must be more interesting than woman, pay better attention than the woman but all this giving is not a reason to feel poor or to feel that she owes you something - even though it is one-sided and you are paying.
We're expensive to employ and easy to denounce politely. For affluent society it's gone beyond the point of assuming the black guy has a lot of soul to an outright smear campaign against any sort of basic white person(who to be fair are a mixed bag).
The rootless cosmopolitan is an environment and a way of thinking where curiosity for new experiences replaces any desire to know your neighbours or form lasting relationships. Cue open borders and feminism. It's not literally the Jews or the lizards, but momentum. The city is curious, it wants to experiment, it hates the provinces and it might get you killed because that's just who it is.
Something happens in lowering the cost of an iPad that distracts from the divisions in society until the money isn't good enough and then you elect a charismatic strongman from the far-right to restore order to the chaos. Capitalism makes the world smaller, so you build a wall. Proximity divides itself without conspiracy so it can own its space. People are not commerce and man is not a force of unbridled curiosity. City life isn't everything and nor is it a conspiracy against us.
Every ship has a ballast and that's what Trump represents. You got the sense the country is drowning in chaos and here you are, it's completely usual for populists to scapegoat the wrong person but they will blame a person. Some target more real than extraterrestrials from another dimension. This human nature is not a conspiracy - you'll have to blame somebody more real than the lizards. You're not as nice as you think you are.
And to be fair I can understand the counter-enlightenment and the rise of charismatic strongmen. Easy answers. The world is only going to get more complicated that is undeniable, but liberal capitalism is stretching the limits of man's neutrality towards man; the impartial actor people are actually going to be like before he decides this is all just too weird. This is particularly the case when he's acting for rubbish money like we have been here in recent years.
The truth is that the world is out of control nobody has the power to direct or even predict the way the world is going. There's never been a worse time for a secret council of elders could run the whole shop it's one of the reasons the soviet union collapsed. In the modern day human affairs are beyond complicated and our interests so diverse that nobody can tell what's right or wrong anymore. Trump isn't a front for the establishment but a symptom of how difficult is to plan in the modern world with all these changes and conflicting interests.
The secret council of elders is not a reality but a myth from those who do wish a return to a simpler time where you could effectively be ruled like a king. Life could really be as orchestrated as it was in the past.
Nice guy naive. Everywhere would be peace and love if not for the giant octopus controlling everything. He seems to replace any and all understanding of the way people tick with tentacles and sheeple, the idea being that if people can live already under the thought police then there's no reason they can't live under yours. The aim is to reject that people act on their own desires because A) you don't fit them, and B) you would have them forced to be some other way.
The place I used to live was haunted by a ghost for centuries or at least the 1940s when it was invented to lure American troops and dollars. We always that the more materialistic and frankly childish people became the more market there would be for ghost. You take dumb from religion without devout and put it with the superficial from technology without intelligence. It was the beginning of a new age.
