    (FB 1546798360 Timestamp) THIS YEAR … We are going to need: … (a) coaches/mentors for young men, and a way to filter those coaches to eliminate the quacks and losers, and we will seek to concentrate income in small numbers of them. … (b) a class in teaching mindfulness (self authoring) in the three points of the spectrum: stoicism, epicureanism, and aristocracy (the amount of available agency). Again, concentrating income in small numbers. … (c) a participating network of Paintball/Airsoft groups … (d) a participating network of firearms instructors/ranges that teach not TARGET shooting but fight-shooting (i have specific requirements for this). … (e) a VERY select group of fire-and-movement trainers in the SWAT rather than MILITARY experience. (De-emphasizing patrol and emphasizing strikes and raids. ) … (f) a VERY select group of martial arts (striking, wrestling)
    … (g) “the idiots guide to lifting heavy things.” … (h) ” organized hiking, camping, marching etc” events with barbeques or sandwitches. afterward. … (i) political event participation in the assistance of others without drawing specific attention to the institute or the movement. Fighting and shooting are high returns for the first 20%. In other words, 80% of the benefit of training is in the first 20% of the training. This is how we make men fit. Most young men who need this kind of thing do not have a lot of extra money. We need to make sure we are using scale so that we keep the prices down for them.

    (FB 1547237031 Timestamp) NEW SITE PROGRESS: PROPERTARIANISM.COM New site is much closer now. The whole Social Platform is working. Most of the body copy is there. A few minor visual tweaks, the ‘About Us’ Page, and then I can fill in the Application (to the institute) and the courses. I’ll add the ‘products’ whenever I get around to it. I’m going to leave it on current hosting for now and experiment with AWS some more. The current hosting is excellent for many reasons,and the cache and search are good. But The AWS responsiveness is insanely good, and so I suspect we’ll move to AWS at some point in the future. Otherwise, we’ll be able to launch soon.

    (FB 1547577839 Timestamp) SITE UPDATE (INSTITUTE, BLOG) The Social Media (Collaboration) features are all working now. 1) The Feed = FB’s Home. 2) My Page = FB’s Profile Page 3) My Education = Classes I’m involved in. 4) Everyone(Forum) = FB Group (feed) with attached forum(topics). 5) Course Catalog. You can: 1) Sign up for the mailing list 2) Register to participate in the chit chat (when there IS some) 3) Fill out your profile a bit. Almost There…. 4) (soon) Apply for Membership (taking classes). (Application is just a way of making sure you know that this is real university level courses and that it’s real work, and that you aren’t an antagonist or some such thing…. etc). TO DO: 1) Just a little more marketing blurbs, terms, and other nonsense to add. 2) Then the ‘how to use the site’ videos. 3) Then The Core and Art classes. So we are moving pretty fast now. Hugs all.

    (FB 1548019857 Timestamp) (SITE UPDATE: 1 – The bug in the “Apply” course has something to do with bad data. Apparently the underlying code is very unforgiving of changes to the courseware content – meaning, that it doesn’t clean up after itself very well and breaks if you aren’t logged in. That said, hopefully I’ll get this bit up and running shortly. 2 – The difficulty with the home page’s text on mobile is going to try my patience. I will fix it when I have patience. I don’t have patience right now. In fact, I have to go to the studio and fix the over-complicated-overpriced-oversized theatre’s audio visual stuff at the moment which is gonna end my patience for the day. lol 3 – Apparently I’m going to get the proposals for the WAR courses rather shortly. 4 – I heard from KMAC on the Group Strategy Course material and he says he’ll look and get back to me. Either way I’m pretty sure he will review the material for us. )

    (FB 1548543561 Timestamp) SITE UPDATE: USER VERIFICATION EMAILS The user verification email function’s been enabled. I was hoping that we wouldn’t need to use it but ‘russian bots’ are a real thing and they’re a time sink. As far as I know everyone registered has been sent a verification email. -Thanks
