there is an antimemetically cloaked SCP in the world disrupting everyone's natural sinthome production in order to support its own perpetuation and no one wants to see the cause or the problem

German idealism is stalking me. I cannot escape german idealism. My life is suffused with German idealism. I am forced to complete the system of german idealism on pain of heartbreak and possibly death. A curse has been laid on me. Or a blessing. Some sort of prophecy

the core skill needed to gain and hold political power in a competitive ecology is the ability to disrupt rival coordination. hence atomization is a natural outcome of democracy (any voluntary association is default dangerous to the elite) unless State power is sharply limited

The actual anti-reactionary temperament towards reactionarism is a sort of contradictorily accepting tolerance towards reactionarism with an understanding that as a symptom it is a compromise to make do in a morass of forced choices. So i think my favorite type of people are anti-reactionaries who are happily unblinkingly friends with reactionaries ... the only good dems left

The Colin Drumm idea that heterosexuality itself must be made radical is excellent. Social revolution cannot be predicated on everyone becoming gay. That being said, i fear that this idea is the harbinger of leftist capitulation to Chinese + Islamist social conservatism.

ALL my best friends have martyr complexes and i spend all my time trying to save them from themselves. Other of the Other, Saviour of the Saviour? The manifestation of my psychotic push-to-Woman, i suppose. And to an extent my drive to save myself from what would otherwise be a life of endless self-sacrifice for the Good

So you know how men say women say they hate misogyny but they really just need a strong man to set them right? That's a man's projection of how women think, ergo this is how men think. The isomorphic structure here is that a man says he hates promiscuous women but actually he just needs a seductress worth her salt to break his brain and permanently change his taste in women. I've literally watched multiple men get one-shot by this and watched multiple female friends one-shot men like this. And if a slut can't adequately take his soul that then that's a skill issue and he walks away denigrating her. Literally just invert all the redpill discourse about women and misogynists. Men want their souls taken. It's the male equivalent of bratting. Very annoying.

This is the only correct take I've ever read about this nonsense.

nitter.cf/myhandle/status/211561… Yes, yes, i'm trying to not say the word "rapebaiting" but i was thinking it. Self-transgression is the logic of the phallic antinomy.

you wouldn't like where the gender-swapped version of this leads

The bonobo vs chimpanzee social organization is literally isomorphic to the Sinthome ("the Sinthome is sexual" - Morel) vs the Name of the Father as mechanisms of internal organization 😹🫵 Everything you do with repressed patricide you can also do with sex. On the phallic antinomy side of things to the extent that the Name of the Father is a limit-setter, sex also serves as a natural demarcator of self and Other. On the feminine antinomy side of things, to the extent that the Name of the Father is an extimate principle that codetermines self and Other into sustainable cybernetic relation, sex as recognition of self in the desire of the Other basically determines a "sinthomatic sexual position" which is what you can consistently convince yourself as convincing the Other as desiring you as

I have been defending polyamory on the basis that it is more sinthomatic and more aligned with the sexual relation since 2024! None of this is new. @pachabelcanon @backlovere @boreddeleuzian

The fellatio is probably more important than the nicotine in terms of the nootropic effect of cigarettes

thinking about how despite the "alpha chad beta buxx" thing whereby allegedly women hold out on sex against men who's willing to commit to them but put out instantly for men who are just there for a fuck, men who are willing to commit would totally respect a woman less for not getting as much out of him and his desire as possible before she puts out? like out of a principle that you disdain a friendly competitor for not playing a proper game. "you can break my spirit and take my soul but instead you just want male attention and my penis ok"

if a woman watches a bro job, it becomes gay. a bro job in itself is not gay.

lacan: psychosis is always an attempt at rigor but i think psychosis is nothing but rigor, when you lose the name of the father so your body floats in the lake of rigor itself, determined purely by the necessities of logic, forced occasionally by drive

you guys know i'm actually psychotic now right? i sublated into psychosis by approaching my neurotic symptoms as a psychotic approaching his delusions: ie "i know it's not true, but nevertheless i believe it" so by having a psychotic approach to my neurosis i could suspend it indefinitely while also double-bookkeeping my neurosis just in case my psychosis slips too far so that i have a backup support
