Disappointed that there is no Polybius. His theory of Anacyclosis is the grand-daddy of all theories of the rise and fall of societies due to multi-generational social processes.

Back when Roger Bannister ran the first four minute mile, Olympic athletes were amateurs. He practiced running for an hour a day while studying medicine. His edge was perhaps in the clever use of interval training to get the best use of his limited training time. Ordinary amateur athletes could watch the Olympics and see others, with more talent, performing better. A little bit better, not on a different plane. So it was inspiring for amateur athletics. Now the Olympics is professional. The athl…

That is a "blast from the past" for me. Growing up in Bristol, England, "living in sin" was a serious debate around 1980. Social conservatives ended up being persuaded to accept couples living together before marriage. The theory went something like this: Young men and young women are yearning for sex. They marry young and unwisely, out of lust. Then their marriage is unhappy. Now that divorce is permitted, they divorce. That is bad, but an improvement on being trapped in an unhappy marriage, de…

If what they are doing doesn't add up, well, it wouldn't be the first time. That article tells the tale of the Russian intelligentsia in the run up to the 1917 revolution; they should have seen that it would work out badly for them as well as others, but somehow they didn't.

The Lunar Men Led by Erasmus Darwin, the Lunar Society of Birmingham was formed from a group of amateur experimenters, tradesmen and artisans who met and made friends in the Midlands in the 1760s. Most came from humble families, all lived far from the centre of things, but they were young and their optimism was boundless: together they would change the world. Among them were the ambitious toy-maker Matthew Boulton and his partner James Watt, of steam-engine fame; the potter Josiah Wedgwood; the …

I thought that about 20% of the posts were good kicks against the narrative. Some posts said that women's sports should be reserved for women with men forbidden to identity in. Some posts said that women's prisons should be women-only prisons with men forbidden to identify in. Good stuff. Most posts in most subreddits are dross. 20% good posts is pretty good. I also found gendercritical illuminating. They would talk about men. Not, I think, dishonestly. But they clearly inhabited a mental univer…

Mr Justice Williams, who ruled that they were married back in 2018, screwed up pretty badly. Society faces a choice about important issues such as ownership of land, or marriage. Is there a formal registration process? Which leads to a bright line test: either the registrar wrote it in the book and issued the certificates, or he didn't. Or is there a test of reasonableness? The advantage of a bright line test is definiteness. It avoids grey areas and lengthy and expensive legal battles about whe…

The ending was an example of writing going wrong by lurching into improbability because the author feels that makes it literature. Say there are 300million Americans. There might be a million or 100000 men like the character in the first 90% of the story. Probability rating: 1 in 300 to 1 in in 3000. The man is not insane, just trapped by a dying culture. But there are perhaps 3 American men who go down the path at the end of the story. Probability rating: 1 in 100 million. Worse still, those fe…

Notice that you are calculating the Sales Tax as the ratio of the Wedge to the Net. That is the shop keeper gets $100 (the net), the customer pays $142 (the gross), $42 goes to the government (the tax wedge). But you are calculating Income Tax differently, as the ratio of the Wedge to Gross. In England this way of calculating used to be called pence-in-the-pound. But 75 pence-in-the-pound is actually a 300% tax, if you calculate it as wedge to net, like we do for sales tax. Notice also that beha…

Sex isn't really for you. It is nature's way of propagating the species. How does sex feel? It feels the way it needs to feel to propagate the species. Specifically: That was close to wonderful. It was nearly mind-blowing. That was almost sublime. Next time I'll actually get it right. I feel so unsatisfied, next time must come as soon as possible.

There is a war on noticing. Part of raising men up is telling them: that thing you noticed? Yes, you are allowed to notice it.

If money is really tight you can economize by doing without running shoes Some people claim that this forces you to land on your forefoot and flex your ankles, which is kinder on your knees and hips.

Your comment reminds me of Dorothy Rowe's approach to depression. From wikipedia She believes that depression is a result of beliefs which do not enable a person to live comfortably with themselves or the world. Most notably it is the belief in a "Just World" (that the bad are punished and the good rewarded) that exacerbates feelings of fear and anxiety if disaster strikes. Her twist on the tale is the Just World aspect. Will it go perfect? Will it go shit? Many of us grow up believing that if w…

Is this partly about doing a 180 ? A woman spends her most fertile years, 18 to 28, on recreational sex. For ten years, falling pregnant is the feared disaster. Children? No way. Then she changes. She has one or two children. But can she undo ten years of fearing pregnancy and children? Or is she stuck with her habits, resenting her children because she spent ten years practicing not wanting them?

Do Afghans know about the wretched personal lives of the American troops that they fight beside? Do they think: I don't want America bringing feminism to Afghanistan, I'll join the Taliban.

There is a new book out, The elephant in the brain about how we are driven by hidden motives that are not available to introspection Speculation: The book would give you ideas on which aspects of personality need a personified embodiment. Confession: The book is a serious academic book and I have not yet summoned up the mental energy to read it.

People are unable to state their true motivations because they do not know them. To make the cartoon really work, it has to be redone in the style of the Numskulls. Then there can be an interior debate. One Numskull states the true reason "She miiiiiight suck my dick". Another numskull points out that it is not socially acceptable to have Edd say that. So they come up with an acceptable form of words. "she is vulnerable and needs help."

Reading the article, the law appears to introduce a more limited prohibition than the headline suggests: A prosecution can proceed if a village chief, who heads the lowest tier of government, files a complaint with police, and parents or children of the accused do not object. Parents, children and spouses can also lodge a complaint. The government gets on the good side of those complaining about immorality in their own village, by their own relatives. The government responds to their complaints …

The Patriarchy needed esoteric doctrine and initiation. There should have been a secret ceremony for when men reach 21 (or maybe 25?). Sure, society brings up boys and girls to be chaste and gas lights young women into believing that they don't like sex, but must have sex with their husband every night. But a society with that as its exoteric doctrine and no esoteric doctrine has no defenses against womans lib and feminism. It has no clue that it is artfully suppressing AFBB, and AFBB will take …

Remind me why schools are co-educational. I can see the down side: put horny teenagers together and be surprised when they get pregnant. I can see other down sides: Boys don't learn much because they are too busy showing off to girls. Girls don't learn much academically because they are busy learning to manipulate boys. I can see an upside to single sex education. It leads to a certain awkwardness around the opposite sex that takes a few years to wear off. Marriage, sex, and children get delayed…

Earlier today I was disagreeing with an article on a First Things, a Hard Core Christian Website. They aim for a religiously pluralistic society that defends human dignity from conception to natural death. I want my euthanasia. A natural death from Alzheimer's disease is slow and terrible. There are two opposed positions on this issue. But what is this? Escobar ordered that Gerald be given antibiotics intravenously for three days, the suit claims. A third position. Natural death is neither suffi…

There is a good comment by u/TrolleybusIsReal. Cutting and pasting It's called a prisoners dilemma, you can even mathematically proof it. Basically if all women just agreed not to use makeup they would all win and nothing would change as attractiveness is relative anyway. However, every individual woman would have an incentive the break that agreement as using makeup would give them an advantage if nobody else is using it, therefore (almost) all women use makeup and they all lose. The whole cosm…

I'm not sure it is new. Things really do change. I was reading about the Harden-Eulenburg Affair So much WTF. Including, en passant At the time, Germany had a very conservative culture where the existence of female sexuality was never spoken of in public, and Elbe's testimony was noteworthy for the first time where the subject of female sexuality was addressed in Germany.

A tyrant needs lackeys. Lackeys who will kill for him. If the people are disarmed, that is sufficient. If the people are have guns, then the lackeys must also be willing to die for him. The 2nd Amendment protects America from tyranny to the extent that bad men find it easier to recruit murderers than to recruit martyrs. If TheGillos cannot talk Americans into giving up their guns, he will have to work on his charisma and lift the loyalty of his lackeys to the next level.

That is a textbook error: the kind of error that you get specifically warned against in textbooks on the subject. It is literally a textbook error. The newly published book Causal Inference In Statistics: A Primer by Judea Pearl, Madelyn Glymour and Nicholas P. Jewell is a text book.

This is linguistic trickery. An honest account of the proposals would say We will abolish marriage. This will prove contentious on its own. When a couple is planning to start a family, the woman looks for assurance that the man will continue to support her financially after the relationship breaks up. So we will introduce pre-alimony. Men will be expected to precommit to supporting their women after the end of their relationship. Since pre-alimony is a clumsy word, and the word marriage is freed…

I like to check the one-star reviews. They save me a lot of money. But with this book we find I'm grateful to my local library for saving me the $20 I would've wasted on this book. This book is great with WHAT and WHY, but it falls short on HOW. If you're looking for an in-depth, text book style description of WHAT the problem is and WHY it's a problem, this is your book. But if you're looking for Answers on HOW to Rescue Yourself From Your Need To Rescue Others, this book is a waste of time and…
