    —“This meaning of “liquidity” isn’t market thickness, nor is it deep pocketed arbitrageurs — it is ownership of a lot of liquid securities. This is the early 20th century meaning as in “liquidity preference” a phrase which is, as far as I know, used in the 21st century only by Brad DeLong.”—

  • CHRISTIAN LOVE AND PROPERTARIANISM If you haven’t noticed, I’ve bought the love

    CHRISTIAN LOVE AND PROPERTARIANISM

    If you haven’t noticed, I’ve bought the love thing hook line and sinker. I tell other men I love them on a daily basis. And it’s infectious. We don’t support each other enough.

    Our culture tells us to be stalwart stoic warriors in the germanic tradition. But we no longer have normative means of obtaining positive reinforcement for our actions – thanks largely to feminists.

    So we have to take matters into our own hands. The red pill means not just that we love ourselves, but that we love other men. And tell them so, when they do works in our interest.

    Technically, Propertarianism tells us only to suppress parasitism (free riding/imposed costs). But Aristocratic Egalitarianism tells us to treat with brotherly love, all who engage in abstinence of parasitism, act as sheriff to police it, militia to defend it, and warrior to demand it.

    There is precious little in Propertarianism that was not in Aristocratic Christianity, Mithraism, and the initiatic brotherhood of indo European warriors that led to the construction of the Vedas.

    We are man’s aristocracy.

    Shall we abandon man to immorality?

    Or shall we lead him to universal love and abstinence from parasitism?

    Lets lead.

    They failed.

    We must take back rule.

    Leave them government,

    but take back rule.

    Curt Doolittle

    (beauty)(diversity)(manospehere)

    —“Today, that person is less conventional and arguably odder-looking than ever before. Brokaw favors the kind of model more memorable than she is pretty. What fashion editors have long euphemistically called jolie-laide, she calls “strong.” The faces she chooses are sometimes merely a bit off-kilter but often undeniably weird and in some cases visibly asymmetrical. In print, they can seem outright radical, especially when compared to the burnished Brazilian goddesses and feline Russians of the recent past. —

    —“interracial marriage (oddness), a high G.D.P. (predictive of good teeth) and protein-rich diets (good for turning out tall but trim citizens).”—

    PEAK HUMAN?

    OMG. What if we have passed ‘peak human’ already? What if it is not possible to improve upon late hunter gatherer genetics, and that urbanization has produced increasingly aggressive, less intelligent, more impulsive peoples?

    What if inbreeding, low IQ, higher aggression, and higher reproduction are a superior evolutionary strategy?

    ECONOMICS OF HUGS

    Ukrainian women are amazing. So it’s a good thing that hugs are inexpensive to produce. Otherwise I would live in poverty.

    CITIES IN THEMSELVES ARE TEMPORARY SPATIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

    Ever play the computer simulation ‘life’? what happens as the rate increases? Patterns emerge that were previously imperceptible. Cities themselves are temporary infrastructure.

    —-“the U.S consists of old and new cities. New cities such as Las Vegas have less “crumbling infrastructure” because the capital stock was built in the last 30 years. Older cities such as Detroit and Cleveland and even Los Angeles have an older public capital stock (roads, sewer pipes, airports). As more people move to new cities, the old cities have fewer Congressmen representing them and this leads to less pork flowing to such places. Spatial cross-city political economy is an important subfield that political scientists should be working on.”—- ibid
