If I had that kind of fame at their age, I would have used it responsibly to get laid. A lot.

Confirmed. Reminds me of a Newsweek cover, back in '95. The 2 on the left were my friends. Not bisexual. Just wanted fame, to get laid a lot.

Can Bastet be our new mascot???? Please?

Depends. What's her time on the 100m hurdles?

I hope she can't run very fast because I would like to be able to catch her.

I'd advise her not to neglect her more academic studies so she has something to fall back on just in case.

Shem the Penishead doesn't realize what I can single-handedly do to boost his click revenue! He's a douchenozzle regular commenter at Patheos:Nonhyperskeptic Nonreligious channel who somehow got his own blog there. (Probably by performing the amazing feat of actually locating Ed Brayton's micropenis to then suck.) Claims that postmodernism and marxism are unrelated, yet is a postmodernist who just by coincidence links to Jacobin all the time. Gets very testy whenever the words "cultural marxism" are used. Yet also let stand a comment by fellow douchenozzle, 3lemenope, admitting that Critical Theory is a reworking of classical marxism by the marxist Frankfurt School in a cultural context. Once refused to provide evidence for an argument as it was "unevidential". Apparently calling you a 'bigot' is his way of showing you the yellow card before ban hammering.

I'd have to review the entire comment section to see what may have been deleted. I suspect it really annoyed Penisboi when I noted that, when he accused Peterson of falsely claiming that Orwell rejected socialism, he linked to a Jacobin article that: 1) stated Peterson shared Orwell's dislike of pretentious socialists, but then; 2) also stated that Orwell rejected socialism in later life.

If I recall the r/keto theories, for the most part, hard liquor, vodka, gin, brandy, whiskey, tequila, rum, is fine. It will slow down any weight loss for that evening/day/week/month, but it won't take you out of ketosis.

There has already been a dry run or two of this. When you send men to a remote desert island, they have a fission reactor made from coconuts ready in a week. The women cry and backstab and complain that there are bugs on the remote desert island. Then they get all flirty because they want to sleep by the fire the men knew how to start.

Its a little hard for me to say since I live half an hour from the nearest boarder with Canada. My impression is that most of our immigrants do come from Mexico, but I don't see it as a big problem, and I don't think the idea that our cities are turning into Juarez is at all accurate. According to that infographic the largest source of immigrants to Michigan (the state I live in) is Mexico, but none of the cities that I've lived in for the last 12 years or visit routinely (so Ann Arbor, Lansing, Detroit and I sometimes visit Grand Rapids) have been awash in recent Mexican immigrants. My opinion is that this post is highly sensationalized. You might get a different opinion from someone who lives someplace like LA or Tucson, though.

A+ the movie. In a world, where the progressives have been oppressed enough, a migration of the most righteous social justice advocates occurs. They move into the Chernobyl wasteland, set up cooperatives that empower the autistic gender fluid farmers that were rejected by the imperialist patriarchy and their farms prosper because they are able harness the radiation to make it organic. When when LGBTTGFophobes discover the paradise of Whitekinda they mount a toxic campaign to colonize it.

It would be very interesting to scale the “horizontal bars by age group” by their relative fraction of the population. And then repeat for 10 and 20 years assuming a fixed proportion of 53% minority for each nextgen.

It would also be helpful if it was clear whether the “population” included illegals or not.

I need to write a paper on “to what extent was doctrine responsible for the German victory in France in 1940”

I will need to determine exactly at what point this victory occurred, define “doctrine”, address the question of whether there was a formal “blizkreig” protocol, determine whether the strategic Ardennes thrust was more important than the how, evaluate Divisional leadership as a factor and offset against Allied failures in doctrine (such as the failure to concentrate superiority assets) as well as failure in Allied leadership and morale.

Should be pretty easy. :lol:

I think this might be something of a trend.

Recently I was speaking to a friend. It was rather late and he was rather inebriated. He started talking about how humans are awful and have fucked the planet, destroy everything, etc etc you get the picture.

So I began asking him why he thought this, and how he knew it to be true or reliable.

I was expecting the surface-level stuff about overpopulation and sustainability, but instead what I got was a lot of argument form authority with *nature* being exalted in the exact same manner as a christian would exalt god.

EG:

"why do you think there are too many humans?

"because look how many of us there are compared to animals.

"why does this mean there are too many humans?

"because there used to be be way more animals and way less humans.

"why is how it used to be better than how it is now?

"because that's what nature intended

etc etc this went on for quite some time, always resolving to a morality based in a (completely irrational) understanding of "nature".

It occurred to me that he had elevated nature to god status, inherently granting it (..her?) a will and a plan that we are somehow 'bad' for having deviated from. Anybody else encountered this? It makes me suspect that 'eco-warrior' types (this guy is not one of those) might be using fact argument post-hoc from the same kind of thinking...

Bisexuality was nothing 'new' in 1995. I had friends/acquaintances already in the early eighties who could ride on both sides of the road.

Every generation thinks it invented sex. The term 'bisexuality' dates back to the 19th Century - and that was only putting a name to something already existing.

SJWs always hold to the idea that something can be both 'new' and therefore exciting and that it has always been around so get used to it.

My opinion is that this post is highly sensationalized. You might get a different opinion from someone who lives someplace like LA or Tucson, though.

I live in Michigan and vacation across the state. In the cities you will find that lawn services and roofers and people putting in concrete are all Mexican. People working for large companies in construction still have few Mexican workers and I assume this is because it is harder for them to hire illegals. Michigan has a pretty large agriculture business. We grow lots of corn and soy, and we also have a large variety of fruits including blueberries and strawberries and raspberries. During berry season (blueberries are ripe in late summer for example) they need lots of pickers and they all look to be Mexican migrants. I often pick my own berries and it is common to see several dozen Mexican picking their way through the fields. You never see any whites or blacks doing this work.... never.

There are several groups of legal migrants coming to Michigan but we are not a state that is growing very quickly. There are lots of Arabs (typically Christian Arabs, but also Muslim) and we have seen a big influx of Bangladeshis. The Bangladeshis have take over Hamtramck which used to be all Polish.

It is kind of weird to compare current immigration patterns to those of the 1950s. I mean, who really cares? 1950 was right after WWII. It was a different universe back then.

I will need to determine exactly at what point this victory occurred, define “doctrine”, address the question of whether there was a formal “blizkreig” protocol, determine whether the strategic Ardennes thrust was more important than the how, evaluate Divisional leadership as a factor and offset against Allied failures in doctrine (such as the failure to concentrate superiority assets) as well as failure in Allied leadership and morale.

Should be pretty easy. :lol:

I put the influence of formal German doctrine at 46%.

You have a copy of Guderian's Achtung Panzer? The Germans themselves never called it "blitzkrieg"; it was a mechanized expansion of their classic 'Sichelschnitt' then 'Kesselschlacht', that had worked on a tactical level at the end of WWI as Stoß infiltration-in-depth. cf. Matthew Cooper, The German Army 1933-1945.

The decisive doctrinal advantage imo was the German flexibility and integration of all arms. The use of close air support stands out. Another example is ability to form Kampfgruppen on the fly. Also the practice of issuing 'objectives' instead of 'orders', letting the local commander adapt to the evolving situation. All this was possible due to the highly-developed general staff, with its practice of giving officers both staff and line experience. cf. Mellenthin, Panzer Battles.

At the divisional level, we see Rommel's (7. Pz??) method of coordinating artillery support: he drew lines along his intended line of advance, & numbered them. All he had to do was call in "9" or "10", or "11", depending on how the day went.

I don't know whether the Allies also had this, but the German concept of the "Schwerpunkt", the critical point where force & energies should be applied, allowed them to tip the balance despite having smaller forces or weaker arms. A PZ II or T-38 can't stand up to a Char-B, but they can clear an infantry position blocking a road just fine. Same for a Stuka.

Additionally, alacrity and the taking of calculated risks were encouraged throughout.

In contrast, the French and British tank theory conceived of armored units as infantry support. Their armored 'kampfgruppe' for the Arras counter-attack was a one-off and only assembled arduously. Air support went from ineffectual (British) to non-existent (French). Indeed, the French Air Force pretty much sat on the ground picking their noses.

I think the grossest Allied failing, one which plagued the Western Allies throughout the war, was their inability to think from the enemy's viewpoint. Had the Germans fought like the French & British, they would have lost in 1940. But the French & British never even tried to imagine possible German strategies. Perhaps because Poland was so weak, the clear signs of the new German strategy & tactics were missed. But they were evident, especially in Blaskowitz' sweep.

PM me if you want to discuss further without boring everyone else.
