In Vegas twelve year old kids can do whatever scandalous thing they want in the middle of the night and the cops can stand right next to them and they won't tell them "shoo". It's kind of harsh to judge all women based on such a depraved city...but on the other hand there are tons of depraved cities like Vegas, just perhaps with less American gluttony.

Devil's argument : "The culture is so shallow, neurotic and dopamine driven that it's rare for a woman, especially an attractive one, to learn how to take it slow - and they can feel magnetically drawn to quick fixes. So they go to a club " But I generally agree ( I think the above argument would be an oversimplification. )

Thank you for writing this. It was on the back of my mind too, and it made me think of the Wheel of Time books.. I think there's a funny scene somewhere In The Shadow Rising where the men and women in a group both think they have exclusive access to a secret -- they even call each other silly and stupid for not knowing the secret -- not knowing that the people of the other gender knows the exact same thing. Yet the entire series also affirms the very differences between the masculine and the feminine.

I made my comparisons based on me having Kallmann Syndrome, so originally I took testosterone medicine enough for a male for some months. Then I switched to estrogen and progesterone as my primary hormones. I saw at least a glimpse of the way women viewed the world and framed it in a deadpan way where I knew they were doing things but not really why. Now when I feel the feminine perspective more acutely and personally I can view it as part of a greater whole in some way, because I can still remember looking through a kind of gray window at it when I was much younger. I guess the projections of how I viewed the past were influenced by society, but I also feel like there are genuine differences that society didn't make up out of nowhere. Maybe you can call hormones shallow but to me they weren't.

You already made him your king by willing to throw beauty, dignity & decorum under the bus for a potential political victory. Look, I don't expect posters with flowers to immediately win political battles. I understand the desire to be as vulgar as possible. But at least for me, I cannot live with the vulgarity. I urge you to think about the philosophy of beauty..aesthetics. I don't expect the culture to self-regulate its urge to insult others, but think critically of how you oppose Trump because I guarantee you it's polluting your soul more than you think. And then what's the point of winning such a war? There are still more dignified ways to protest and I will be searching for them when I do protest.

We want to be lifted up by men, but we want to maintain the dream that at any time we can say "Put me down, love, I can stand on my own two feet." And we can definite being "lifted up by men" in different ways - but that is one feminine essence. There are others. I wish that I could explain it better.

Yes , and everyone eats it up. The fact that the cultural response is so vulgar is deeply sad. Even just watching it just degrades your soul, and society's writ large. You have to be smarter how you ''oppose'' unconscious people. The filth ruins your clothes. I have more reason to oppose Trump's policies than others. But I will take the White Rose pamphlets spread in Nazi Germany over this at any day in the week.

Anything the artist "Heavensenthoney" (Youtube) made.

Yes this is mostly true. I feel as though feminine spirituality is like swinging on a trapeze bar, to borrow a phrase from Anaïs Nin. You're holding onto something concrete while swinging on the bar, but it does feel pretty airy. When you can preserve your femininity while still piercing the veil...

I love this channel and I think it explores spirituality from a feminine perspective in pretty amazing ways. Her videos improved my life a lot.

They're dying from a variety of causes, gunshots in the head for 6-10 people at once for back talking a guard or fighting too long , malnutrition, other diseases. Not as systematically insane or as industrial as the holocaust , but still very bad and "getting to that level" territory. That's my guess, I've not been there though.

Trump probably has 85-95 iq points, if we're to use that scale. He's not as stupid as some people make him out to be, but he's also hardly of average intelligence.

It's somewhere in between this, and his brain being kind of just mush.

Nah he's frankly too fat and eats too badly to live to 100 I think. I could see him living for another 4+ years though.

Jim Acosta resigned fairly recently because he was standing up too much to Trump on CNN. And there are other instances. So I would not praise legacy media too much. Lots of people there are afraid of getting arrested. You can tell it because every news anchor looks a little more nervous than usual. Or maybe I"m just projecting. I'm joining a protest on Thursday so that should get me off the internet.

I think there is a vanishingly small percentage chance that Congress, even Republicans, will turn on Trump, if he does too much damage. I'm definitely not counting on it though.

The world is bigger than what you read about transgender people on the internet or even what you see of them in real life. It's true of everything.

Yeah you're right. I haven't been to any truly poor countries, but I went to Costa Rica and that was kind of enough for me to deduce that trans rights are just sort of a luxury.

Well the executive order says it takes "a minimum of 12 months" to recover from medical transition surgery and that you need to use heavy narcotics for months to recover. For me I went back to the gym after like 6 or 7 weeks after my SRS, so it's just a blatant lie at least for some people. Yeah some people might take longer to recover physically but I'd say the norm to go back into combat roles would be probably 4-8 months, not 12 months. There are also less physically intensive jobs that you could do in the military that you could probably do sooner than even that. I also stopped taking oxycodone for the pain like two weeks after my procedure so I wasn't really taking heavy-narcotics for 12 months or even one month. So the main part that I don't like is all the blatant lying. Truth doesn't matter at all to them. Also... before they'd mention transgenderism like in one of four statements, but now it feels like it's coming out in every 1 out of 2 statements they make. But I'm working on my mental resilience for this retarded administration.

Day 8...

My property is in Tucson and I don't think this is the best city in which to have property nowadays.

Drinking tea, meditating, and reading is enough for me. I tried to persuade myself that it was safe to take psychedelics, but half of my family has schizophrenia and I'm not taking any risks with that crap. Sometimes I want to meditate for longer and longer stretches of time but sometimes that also feels pointless.

Lavrov is Putin's lapdog, trained to bark where Putin wants him to bark. He is false.

Well she is a teenager .
