Guy Debord argued that modern life was increasingly being replaced by representations of itself. In 1994, he died by suicide. David Foster Wallace proposed sincerity as an escape from recursive irony. In 2008, he died by suicide. Mark Fisher wrote about the ghosts of futures that never arrived. In 2017, he died by suicide. Now it is our turn to solve postmodernism.

Kind of funny that the “China Lobby”, which basically ran the United States using Eisenhower as a shadow president between 1953 and 1961, has the exact opposite politics from what you’d expect something called “the China Lobby” to have today

Outside of Jesus and the Buddha, I think this meme is actually universally true for every prophet I've ever read about. Feel free to provide other examples if I'm wrong.

I stole this discipline trick from the military. My kids used to ignore me until I repeated myself 5 times. Now they respond the first time. Every time. Here's what changed: I give the instruction once. Then I count to 3 in my head. If they haven't moved by 3, immediate consequence. No warning. No negotiation. They learned: Dad's words mean something. Consistency beats volume.

the people that most deeply understand human psychology are not psychologists or doctors but elite m&a bankers. being excellent at high stakes dealmaking, especially in zero sum industries, is about as close to the core of uncomfortable truth of human behavior as is possible

男人只要愿意陪一个认知低的女人走下去,那么这个女人大概率会让你知道,她不但认知低,而且连良心都不会有。 心理学上有个概念叫受助者恶意(Taker's Malice),意思是当一个人认知层次不够时,你越是毫无保留地帮她、对她好,她反而不会感恩,只会滋生出隐秘的恨意与轻视。你对谁过度付出,就要背负谁的命运。 你总以为只要自己足够好,就能把一个人带上来。但现实是你改不了任何人,只能见证她慢慢暴露本性。一个认知长期停在低位的人,她最稳定的状态不是成长,而是反复。 你给她理解,她会觉得你好说话;你给她付出,她会觉得这是理所当然。你一旦退一步,她不会感激,只会继续往前要。为什么?因为她的世界里没有交换和共赢,只有占有和索取。 你以为你在经营关系,其实你只是在被消耗。她的快乐来自比较,她的安全感来自控制,她的满足感来自你不断让步。而你越是让步,她就越觉得你不值钱。 关系从来不是靠感动维持的,而是靠价值对等。当一个人既缺资源、又缺认知、还缺边界感的时候,她最擅长的不是爱你,而是利用你。 人只会变得更像自己,不会变成你想要的样子。你可以不高攀,但你一定要筛选。因为婚姻不是救赎,更不是扶贫。 你拿一生去赌的从来不是爱情,而是概率。赌赢了,这是你运气好;赌输了,那就只能认命。而大多数人输就输在明知道不对,还不肯及时止损。

Reading this and, regardless of one’s faith, this seems to be a vitally important: “When efficiency becomes the ultimate measure of value, human beings are tempted to see themselves as a project to be optimised rather than as persons called to relationship and communion.”

An oldie but a goodie. In 1968 a bunch of entitled hippy bastards sent a letter detailing their specious demands to the Warden and Fellows of Wadham College, Oxford. This was their letter of reply, which speaks to how far the academy has since fallen.

Simple question: are local trains trains that stop at local stops, or are local stops stops that express trains don't stop at? The Journal of Philosophy tackled this vital issue in an April Fools' article by Myrtle Willoughby. It's the best philosophical satire ever written.
