  • On (My) Writing Style

    (on writing style)(via pm)(with a friend) As the guys tell me, I tend to write for a cognitive elite, and it seems that it takes about a 130 IQ to understand it. Our strategy group for the past five years has been for me to work out all the fine details then hope the guys like you translate it for the masses. I try but I just don’t think I can talk tot he masses. I think in very … granular(?) terms. In my mind I’m talking about identity, math, logic, programming, and operational law. And that is just … alien to the mass of humanity that was raised upon myth, literature, and history. (the narrative.) I feel my job is to create the equivalent of the Frankfurt School, or the Jesuits, the Inquisition, and create a hundred and then a thousand people who can argue natural law. I would rather enjoy starting a revolution and getting that job done. But I think others will do that job better than I will. I would love it if I could reach the masses through speech. I would love it if I could write novels and stories as the literature of natural law – even though the Iliad and the Odyssey, the greek and roman myths, the rings of the Nibelungelied, the tales of Arthur and the Carolingians, or the story of Colonialism, and now the great heroic task that is before us, are probably sufficient and tested narrative. I’m just one guy. I’m in my 50s. I’ve been seriously ill multiple times, and had a possibly lethal amount of radiation. I have a product in development for many years which I must work on at the same time as the philosophy. Both are taxing. The purpose of the product is to fund me (and others) in taking it to its conclusion: the ‘bible’ of western civilization beyond which no man or government may tread: the cult of non-submission: the philosophy of aristocracy: sovereignty, and its ‘scripture’: natural law.

  • Why Has Curt’s Tone Changed

    WHY HAS CURT’S TONE CHANGED? —“I don’t know if it’s just me but your tone and presentation (I almost said style, but that’s not it) have changed dramatically in the last week or so from what I observed as dramatically consistent for the last few months since I started following you.”—Daniel Anderson You know, I have very low self awareness which is why I think about it in order to try to. Me, I don’t notice much other than it’s harder or easier to make arguments and write code. lol I work around the clock and that’s it. I think, if you will forgive me for over-sharing, that I while I don’t ever feel ‘depressed’ in any material sense, that I was having some sort of depression from the stress of the past two years, and I think I must have gotten over it at the end of last month, and I can see it in my writing and in my code. My subconscious is less exhausted and frustrated. And I have room for empathy where I had no emotional reserves before then. So I can write with a bit of feeling now. I think that’s what you and others are noticing.

    ( Worked all day at the library.

    Both laptops. One for browser, one writing.

    Unplugged, packed, walked home, and ….

    Boot then, Crash, Crash, Crash….. WTF.

    Spent past six hours or so trying to recover.

    I had checked in my code. (thankfully)

    Dropbox is (mostly up to date)

    I’ll definitely lose a few days. sigh.

    First time for me.

    i .. am… not .. productive … today.

    Love the god of binary.

    The god of binary is your friend – sometimes.

    He demands sacrifices of time.

    And he is angered by insults.

    He considers syntax errors insulting.

    I make as many typos in code as I do in verse…. lol

    I insult the god of binary all day long.

    sigh. lol

    ON BEING “ASSHOLES AND HEROES”

    I am extremely talented at being an ass—- which is why I try to avoid all opportunity to exercise that talent.

    I am extremely talented at being a ruthless ass—-, which is why I try to avoid all opportunity to exercise that talent.

    I am extremely talented in the use of cunning violence while being a ruthless ass—-, which is why I try to avoid all opportunity to exercise that talent.

    I have worked very hard to be a little scribbling hamster despite the brutality of my upbringing ( which was horrific by any account. )

    In general, most of the problems you can solve by being an ass—-, a ruthless ass—-, and a cunningly violent ruthless ass—-, are not actually problems; but opportunities to let nature take its course while you drink coffee and watch the train wreck.

    Personally I love being a hamster. I would rather watch and appreciate people, adore beautiful women, and savor the arts of words, craft, and creativity.

    That said, there are good uses for being an ass—, ruthless ass—-, and cunningly violent ruthless ass—. We call that war.

    But, the moral man need not be an ass, or ruthless, or cunning. He merely need speak the truth, demand it in return, and brook no imposition upon himself or others, and preform restitution to the best of his ability when he errs.

    And to use cunning and violence without being an ass—, but a hero.

    I think I sound more like I did two years ago.
