    “YOUR BRAIN ISN’T A COMPUTER..!!!” ….. WELL THAT’S NOT QUITE RIGHT

    Nonsense. A brain doesn’t compute but it calculates just fine thank you. The difference isn’t that complicated. You compute with perfect information(types) and you calculate with imperfect information (categories). A computer can’t select its own algorithms and weights. You can select your own algorithms and weights. But there is precious little difference between they way you iteratively search google, and your brain iteratively searches for meanings. You just can’t observe the search process in your mind any more than you can observe it in google, and your mind never stops while google waits for your next entry. Otherwise…. not very different AT ALL.

    The point of demarcation we call speciation is COOPERATION, not sterility in reproduction. We speciate by rates of learning. Because the cost of lower species of human is too high for the higher species to bear.

    What ever led us to believe that AGENCY was a universal ability rather than the result of a coincidence of necessary goods, the lack of any one which prevents agency; and that very few people possess agency over their most trivial impulses?

    (Seriously. The only reason a man needs much money is to pay for women or status signals. If you get a small apartment, or a house a couple of other guys, and hire a housekeeper, its pretty easy to live well, stay fit, travel, invest, and enjoy life, fool around on occasion. Then own your own home, and pick up some hottie with a prenup after she’s had her ‘omg this is reality’ marriage and kids, so she doesn’t learn about reality on your dime. Don’t think you’re gonna be happier without a woman in your life. Just keep in mind that because of progressivism and feminism, men and women have been infantilized, and we need an extra ten years in reality to make up for the loss of 15-25 due to infantilization. The problem is that 10 years is really costly for most. So just avoid the cost of that wasted 10 years. )

    You know how irritating it is when something interrupts your train of thought? You know how some things come to mind and are intense, and some are not at all? Now, imagine your subconscious is interrupting your train of thought all the time in rapid succession and they are all emotionally intense. Sort of like when you hit a bad website and it opens a zillion windows with viruses. You know? That’s what it’s like for a woman. Be easy on them. They evolved to keep a brood of young humans from certain death at every possible moment. The fact that in the current age, they’re not walking around without four or five kids, and compromising with mom and sisters and cousins who are doing the same is why they’re crazy. Military, industry, and business are easy for us. for them it’s a poor substitute for the important stuff. Work for women, since they dominate the easy occupations, is a bit like playing sports and video games for us instead of hunting. A poor substitute that de-socializes us and gradually makes us insane.

    For men, threats to the dominance hierarchy are a possible benefit we need to work through. For women they are a near certain threat they need to avoid. That’s what separates our perceptions of reality. Men are less cautious with one another because we’re more dangerous and less likely to act. Women are more cautious with each other because they are less dangerous and more likely to act against each other.

    Doing, talking about, and imagining something all exercise the same pathways. Help her imagine, talk about things so she doesn’t do them. (works both ways)

    It’s not so much that women want to be right all the time. It’s that they want to exorcise their feelings most of the time. The trick is to help them do that as well as their best girlfriend when they are insecure, and not to reinforce them when they are getting cocky. (works both ways really.)
