Proach

Men are discouraged from approaching women they donโ€™t know as well as discouraged from asking out women they do know. How is a relationship supposed to start?

Yeah. Isn’t that some fucked up shit? Glad I’m not involved in any of that crap any longer. Women got the world they wished for…and turns out, no one likes it. Not even them. But they’ll have to deal, as men do. Sometimes it sucks to get what you think you want.

The truth of course is that relationships are begun by the guys who ignore the advice from women and just do things, ask a stranger out, in public, in the library. At work. That’s the reality. Don’t like it, get off my fucking blog and pick up the crack pipe again and resume your true occupation: useless oxygen-guzzler. Today I’ve got more salt than the ocean.

Cruelty Lies

Whatยดs the worst thing a girl said to you besides “no” after you asked her out?

Every guy knows — because men know both guys and girls — that overall, women are much crueler than men. Sure, men can be more violent, but women are far more likely to be just needlessly, vilely spiteful and sadistic. Many of them enjoy rejecting men in the most despicable, humiliating way possible if she feels you are beneath her (and most women think 90%+ of men are beneath them).

If I were establishing a torture corps, I’d choose women to lead it. They would be so much better at it than men.

360 Video: NASA Simulation Plunges Into a Black Hole.

Yes, I know this is from NASA, but unfortunately it is not accurate. Or at least highly, highly misleading. For one, the external universe would not disappear like that. Here is a more realistic view of what would occur. If even NASA can’t get this right, you know we’re fucked.

The below, though long, is also far more accurate.

The NASA simulation is likely botched because it did not properly account for the fact that relativity means that there is no real difference between the astronaut(s) inside and those outside the event horizon in practical terms except light can no longer escape. Most probably it attempted to simulate the view of the infalling astronaut for the perspective of the external universe…which is just wrong. And results in the misinformation seen in the NASA sim.

Fit For

The human tendency to overfitting of stochastic and meaningless stimuli and occurrences (apophenia, pareidolia etc.) produces illusions of deterministic certitude that persist despite high initial condition dependency, resulting in practices that seem to grant control but merely allow for mental stability.

This is probably unavoidable, the way we’re built.

FIFO FAFO

The in house IT guy was fired and never replaced after we went back into the office after working remotely for over a year and a half during Covid.

And then ransomware struck after I’m sure no updates or security monitoring for a long while. Bet he refused to RTO because for IT folks it’s pretty easy to get a fully remote job even now if you’re any good (I get 2-3 legit recruiter offers a week for fully remote roles).

And what happened to that law firm is what I call fuck around and find out.

Moose Ops

Did you hear Canada has a space agency? Yeah, it’s the tallest moose they could find and a guy with a hockey stick and puck riding on the back. He hasn’t yet been able to slap the satellite (puck) into space, but they’re hoping one day he can. They’re still looking for a taller moose.
