The practice and principles of Permaculture are one of the most important tools for not only creating a sustainable socialism, but also for repairing the damage done to the global ecosystem by capitalism, and lessening your individual reliance on the current capitalist system.Permacultural practice and socialism are two very powerful allies, and learning about permaculture should be necessity for modern socialists and communists.

What this won't take care of though is heavy metals and other stuff that bioaccumulates in the human body, but there are ways of getting that stuff out of the soil too. Sunflowers are generally pretty good at sucking up everything in soil so they can be used to help reduce contaminants (just make sure that once they are grown you go bury them somewhere else to help return the contents to the sedimentary layer).

Hay una psyop masiva para generar odio contra argentina y justificar una posible intervención o lento takeover del país y sus recursos.

Por medio del mundial estan pintando al pais como una potencia sionista corrupta y despreciable. Estan habiendo demasiadas decisiones y doble vara arbitral que es dificil que sean todas coincidencia. Hay alguien interesado en generar toda esta dinamica, quiza para devolverle un favor a alguien y de paso indirectamente arrastrar polemica pero mejor no digo más. Despues del partido contra Egipto cualquier tipo de simpatia entre el pueblo que pudiera tener argentina en medio oriente y muchas partes del mundo directamente se evaporó.
Y por otro lado, llevan años queriendo pintar al pais como un pais racista, colonialista y hasta settler-imperialista por no tener negros en su seleccion o por sesgos historicos terribles que los anglosajones liberales y progres se tragan como bobos. Para muchos en su imaginario ya argenitina no es menos que el manifest destiny americano y por supuesto un estado ilegitimo.

I'm not an expert, but hasn't the rest of Latin America always hated Argentina? I don't think before the internet people outside of Latin America were even aware of Argentina. I always heard Argentinian hate from other Latin Americans.

https://www.nytimes.com/1998/05/24/weekinreview/the-world-formerly-arrogant-utterly-argentine.html
The World; Formerly Arrogant, Utterly Argentine
1998

>AT the Summit of the Americas in Santiago, Chile, last month, several foreign ministers from Latin American countries derided President Carlos Saul Menem of Argentina after he arrived late for the official photo session, making 33 other heads of state, including President Clinton, wait.


>Mr. Menem joked that his driver became lost and that he, the President of Argentina, had to walk. The incident was reason enough for the ministers to engage in a favorite Latin pastime – Argentine bashing.


>Argentines are Italians who speak Spanish who think they are British, one minister said.


>What is ego? another asked. Ego is the little Argentine inside each of us.


>Whatever the reason, Argentines are without a doubt the most disdained group in Latin America. (Mr. Menem also raised eyebrows when he decamped early to visit flooded areas of his country.)


>Argentines have long taken pride in their arrogance, perhaps as a way of covering over their own insecurities about their real identity. They flaunt their European ancestry and culture to their Latin American peers, who have mixed or indigenous blood. Now recent social and economic reforms suggest that the Argentine reputation for haughtiness may no longer be deserved. The view was perhaps rooted in a misunderstanding of a people who have historically vacillated between grand sophistication and banality.

What do we think about this disgusting nicotine-addicted lumpen of a cat girl?

Can't tell if this anime is even for or against smoking. Bunch of poop, piss, nyaa jokes and what not actually I appreciate how unhinged it is

Only thing I've seen about it is this mini-analysis on it, but it looks quite interesting.

i watched the first episode and i liked it. i thought it was funny and felt bad for the catgirl.

I quite like it, I don't think it's against smoking exactly because I don't think smoking is the main problem our disgusting catgirl wreck has. It's a symptom of an underlying soul-wound that she self medicates with smoking until the smoking becomes the problem she's medicating,

But even if all cigarettes disappeared the next day because God snapped his fingers and wiped them from existence, that wouldn't fix her. She'd find something else to destroy herself with.

Remember that meme where Alex Jones was hilariously schizoing out about the government putting chemicals in the water that turn the frogs gay?
Well, it’s actually true. Such a chemical exists, and its name is Atrazine. It’s widely used in the US, but banned in Europe (including Russia). It’s mainly used as a weed killer and in many other applications. It also gets into the water supply. It affects the endocrine system by increasing the amount of aromatase. It crosses the placenta and the blood-brain barrier. The majority of male frogs exposed to it either become castrated invalids or turn into females.
Obviously, all of this applies to humans as well. The main hypothesis for the development of transsexuality and homosexuality in AMABs is that during prenatal development there is a hormonal disruption (too little testosterone / too much estrogen, you get the idea). So if you put two and two together, the rise in the number of MtFs and gay men in America (but not FtMs and lesbians - how many FtMs have you actually seen?) is connected to everything described above.
The /pol/tards explain this by saying the government wants to turn all the goyim into LGBT. Listening to Epsteinites is a sin, so instead I explain it this way: it’s much easier to milk loosh from minorities. You can’t really break the majority without starting wars, famines, etc. to make them suffer. And even then, normalfags support each other and mostly only suffer physically. But to make minorities kill themselves and produce ten times more loosh, you only need a couple years of propaganda, a couple of laws, and complete impunity for bullying them.
Those who didn’t get hit hard enough by Atrazine simply turn into omegas who seethe on /pol/ and other internet shitholes, sharing gore videos, after spending their school years getting beaten up by normies.

Gundam’s kinda like Star Wars or Marvel in that the age demographic varies wildly due to being a legacy IP. Some of it can be enjoyed by an older audience, others are shameless in being toy commercials full of goofy bullshit. Sometimes you get a Hathaway or Thunderbolt, other times you get ZZ or Build Fighters

>>30307
I don't know how much for kids it is, simply because most anime depends on Bluray sales to be profitable, and the thing about kids is they don't actually have all that much disposable income?

>>30310
Despite not being very good a lot of the time, ZZ is unfortunately the most class conscious Gundam series. I say unfortunately because I would have liked it if the class conscious one was also the good one.

Amuro and Camille are both ultimately rich kids. They live in the fanciest parts of the colonies, their parents are high level Space Raytheon people, ultimately the war can be a war of ideals for them.

Judah in ZZ is somewhere between working class and lumpenprole. He understands that the rich, either Earthnoid or Spacenoid, care nothing for him. He helps a miner's strike, for god's sake!

Good book on Jesus’ historicity, analysing not just every argument on the historical Christ but also giving a holistic assessment on how Christianity likely came to be, with a vigorous reference section. If you don’t want to buy it on Amazon, it’s available at z-library (link not given to avoid piracy charges).

Inb4:
>Muh Adam Green
>Muh Bart Ehrman
>Muh consensus
>Muh Christophobia

Yadda yadda, I know who Adam Green is, about the Ehrman talking point, and how this subject can be touchy to both Christcuck and e-crusader secularised midwits here, so I’ll be blunt here:

  • Adam Green’s background doesn’t invalidate his broader points on Christianity, the Bible, and Jesus Christ’s existence

  • The “consensus” doesn’t mean much since it’s mostly made up of Christians and Christian-sympathisers who engage in confirmation bias and gatekeeping to discourage any critical opinion on the historical Christ theory. Given that Ehrman himself relies on this very unreliable consensus for his book on Jesus’ historicity

  • Not believing in Jesus’ existence as a historical figure isn’t anti-Christian as many non-mainstream Christian sects like the early Church-era marcionites and gnostics assert the notion of a mythical non-physical Christ. On the top of that, much of Judaism (and by extension Zionism) rests on the notion of the Old Testament as being 100% true and historically accurate text, whilst Islamic doctrine holds the existence of a historical Christ. So by negating the existence of a historical Christ, and by extension undermining the value of the Old Testament as a historical text, Christianity and Islam and Judaism are effectively undermined

>Muh crucifixion

Never happened since Jesus never really existed. I love how you use weasel words and yet never try to back up your claims. We’ve gone through this, and none of the non-Christian sources allegedly about Jesus were contemporary to him nor were actual eyewitness testimonies, instead being repetitions of hearsay among Judeans written centuries after Christ’s agreed date of death.

Going back specifically to the crucifixion: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KOm47lKllQ4

Ok boomer

This sort of thing always makes me think of an old Soviet joke that goes like this:

Radio Yerevan was asked: "Is it true that comrade cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was given a car in Moscow during the celebrations?"

The Armenian Radio answers: "In principle yes, but it was not in Moscow, rather in Kiev, and it was not a car, but a bike, and it was not comrade cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, but comrade highschool teacher Gagarin and his first name was not Yuri, but Leonid…and it was not given to him, but stolen from him…but in principle, yes."

This is what I think about when people talk about "Was Jesus a historical figure?" Well, in principle, yes. But he wasn't born when he was supposed to be born, and he didn't do most of the things that are attributed to him, and his name was not Jesus, but apart from being different in every particular…in principle, yes he existed."

And of course you can do this with way more people than just Jesus. Was King Arthur a historical figure? In principle, yes. Now his name wasn't Arthur and he wasn't english and he lived in a different castle and he wasn't king of the britons and he was actually a conglomeration of different warlords from different eras and areas…but apart from that, yes, Arthur was real.

The only time I would Torrent is if I had a custom workstation consisting of a MilkV Jupiter wired to another MilkV Jupiter router board via cat6 cables to your default ISP router also. Run IP over DHCP for all connections, give the MilkV Jupiter router board a ath9k PCIe Atheros Wifi card, run a custom SOCKS5 proxy written in Python on both Jupiters, with X25519, Poly1305, ChaCha20 and Kyber for cryptographic post-quantum protection, with libsodium, PQClean and OpenSSL integration, a firewall (use firejail), pyshark, fail2ban, nftables with Suricata or Zeek (Bro) for LLM traffic scanning in pyshark. It should shut out any threats. After encrypting your traffic on your desktop MilkV Jupiter board w/ PCIe connection to a PCBway computer-class printed circuit board, w/ LiteX and Lattice ECP5 NAND + NOR controllers for memory instead of proprietary SD/eMMC/NVMe. Then wire a ECP5 HSM (Hardware Security Module) Module to hard brick the device in case it gets tampered with. Give it a Modos paper display, Keyboardio model 01 keyboard, 3D printed Ploopy mouse, use passive speakers (like Micca e.g., MB42X) w/ two more chips soldered to the PCBway printed circuit board for support (use a PCM1802 / PCM1808 (TI) ADC and a MAX98357A (Maxim) DAC). Then use a Microsoft Lifecam VX1000 / VX3000 or a Ligtech Quickcam 4000 / Quickcam Express 1999 web cam. Optionally, wire three more MilkV Mars SBCs to the Jupiter workstation board via PCIe inference, if possible via bifurcating or modifying the SBC board. Give each "accelerator" board a smaller PCBway corcuit board with the same modules for memory, ADC / DAC, and HSM. Likewise, use a MNT Reform laptop for programming boards via SiFive development boards. You can wipe amd program boards (like your MilkV Jupiter/Mars SBCs), to erase the proprietary DDR4 training controllers and replace with UberDDR3 via LiteDRAM. But that would require unsoldering and rewiring to a custom modified MilkV Jupiter/Mars board made from PCBway. Use ECP5 FPGAs for DDR3 controller. Now you have a fully libre board!

You can use the Mars SBCs for LLM LAN acceleration as a mini-cloud (like PyTorch or llama.cpp) using open wifi. Install Gentoo on the boards, harden the kernel, secure the bootchain, and when compiling it from source, refuse any proprietary packages and now run it over Sway. Gentoo runs smoothly on RISC-V (and so does Linux From Scratch, although that's a nightmare setting up, let alone maintaining). I would use kvm/qemu and a cuPost too long.

The capital of the privacy industry is not technological, but ideological. The privacy industry's most valuable asset lies not in technology, but in the blind trust of its users.They cannot prove that their products actually do what they claim to do. They can only make promises. And users are forced to believe in these promises.That is why some projects, like GrapheneOS, fight such an obsessive battle against 'misinformation'. Because trust is their foundation. They cannot prove that their product actually works.

>They cannot prove that their products actually do what they claim to do.
That's not true. Products that are open source, and if related to networking in any way, decentralized, are auditable. Linux, Monero and LibreWolf fall into this category.
But of course we must not blindly trust centralized products, since we cannot actually know whether they're doing what they claim. VPNs, Tor (the network) fall into this category.

"Ethical" AI Artists and Writers:
  • admit they use it
  • are transparent about it
  • don't just use it mindlessly
  • use it selectively so they can work on the stuff they feel they are best at
  • Edit what the AI outputs heavily to better match their own version
  • Get shit on by the public for "using AI slop"

"Non Ethical" AI artists
  • Don't admit they use it
  • aren't transparent about it
  • use it mindlessly
  • use it to do everything for them

I think we'll see companies like gaming studios opening up about AI, perhaps some news organizations too. People are too jumpy about AI because of what it represents to their livelihoods but as AI expectations unbloat and companies are more realistic about what it can realistically do, we are going to see consoomers mellowing down and eventually normalizing AI. But writers using AI is going to be tough because AI still writes really shit prose and is getting worse at it, and it's getting easier and easier to detect because there is not that much incentive in improving AI prose writing skills whereas there is lots of money in agentic coding or whatever. And it will get even worse when AI companies move away from RLHF to RLAIF

>>33706
>move away from RLHF to RLAIF

duckduckgo has ai now too, enabled by default even. search companies are following google's lead and enshittifying their real search to push people to relying on their ai search, which keeps people from leaving the page and maximizes ad revenue for the search engine and gives nothing back to the original content author. this is the new normal and duckduckgo is a for-profit search company just like google or any other, why would they be any different?

transness as an economic symptom
men are seen as the breadwinners, value determined by money, finances, economic power
more and more men are unable to access this value, this causes gender dysphoria, and seeing that the economic power of women is stronger than men, seek to gain that economic power via transitioning. this only accounts for a small but noticable percentage of trans people, and does not imply that all trans people come from this logic, only that this logic does to some degree create trans people, and if economic opportunities were better, there would surely be less trans people. This is also why the bulk of new trans people are trans women. Women don't really need to transition to a man to access the economics that womanhood innately brings. The inability to perform the role of man, which is fundmentally an economic role, leads to men transitioning.

would you be trans if you had a good job making 120k a year? if you had the ability to support a family? I wouldn't be.

>on the contrary i would say male individuality is basically the only thing that can salvage being a man. (this is what i was getting at by "sheer force of personality" and "sheer force of special interests"

Individuality is the only thing that can salvage any demographic regardless of race, gender, or age.

>pop sci has advantages for explaining concepts quickly and glibly (which is obviously my approach here), the details don't matter so much as the directionality. so long as the cause is something in the womb (and don't be too hasty discrediting that in favour of social constructivism, look at the well documented birth order effect influence on male homosexuality and the way that this does not happen to adoptees.) the details aren't too important.


You’re just rationalizing woo woo right now. No different from urban myths about “coal burners” or natural disasters are divine punishment.

>even if men weren't an acceptable target for mocking and demonizing, masculinity would still be hollow. it's (basically) acceptable to make fun of the irish, italians, etc, but those identities have some positive content (even if like all nationalism it's a bit of a LARP, the irish are generally seen as friendly and funny people, italians by good food and art and so on.)



It seems to me you have a problem with masculinity. But ok, if masculinity is hollow then so is femininity.

> to be overlooked and undersympathised is the gender affirming way to treat a contemporary man.

There isn’t.
Transgenderism and homosexuality aren’t genetic although they are bio psychological

Would you apply this same logic for trans men and tomboys?

Most of which are because of men.
If you view masculinity as hollow, then you have to admit that femininity is also hollow especially since it focuses on youthful beauty and docility far too much.

I will admit that masculinity is wrongfully gatekept and mystified but so is femininity.

Btw this all is exaggerated even more in poorer countries. I live in the outskirts of eastern europe and a dominatrix will still charge $200 as the bare minimum, and I've seen them charging close to $1000 too. That's one thing when it happens in the west, although even there that's absurdly much, but here it's even more absurdly much - like come on, $300-400 is already someone's monthly wage, so an unfortunate man legit wakes up every date at 8am, goes to his wagecage, gets humuliated by management, phyiscally tired and emotionally drained, gets back home after 6pm, and this all month long only to get $300-400 for a month of this soul-draining slavery, less than a woman gets an hour or two at worst for having her feet licked or smth like that. So a month of a man's life is worth less than an hour of woman's. Just how dehumanizing is that?


>>9384
>Again, those are outliers.
Oh really? Try to find one chargin under $200 an hour at least, and even that will probably be an "online session" lmao.
> Also, dominatrixes aren’t valued as much as you think.
Right, there's a more highly paid category - GFE.
>They have a short time window.
>They can be rejected for losing their beauty or nuance.
No they don't, there are 50yo+ dominatrixes charging barely less. And let's be honest, if at these income levels she doesn't have enough to not have to "work" anymore ever she must borderline mentally retarded, I think those that do it at that age just enjoy it.
And on beauty: any ugly woman is valued infinitely more than the average male (who is not valued at all) and can charge just as much. I've seen escort profiles where it's basically the female version of Chud and she charges $400 an hour (again, it's someone's monthly wage here). Sis, if you were male with these looks, you'd never get to touch a woman, you'd be bullied at school, you'd likely hang yourself by the age of 20-25 due to loneliness. Yet here you are, blessed with a vagina.

Thread for those who like to read and write including fanfiction. Share drafts, look for beta-readers, ask for writing advice, give recommendations and do all that other cool jazz. Just remember to not bully anyone else no matter how shit their taste might be.

i think you hit the nail on the head that its the result of having an established story. Harry Potter, lotr, etc… for example where you have a established fandom obsessed at looking at all the different aaspects of the story.
otherwise its like writing a story where it begins with a bank robbery. but it never gets solved. why should anyone care in the first place? it doesnt add 'mystery' or anticipation or whartever. if anything its more likely to piss off the reader that they invested time and nothing essentially happened.

>>47782
>Audiences are increasingly into worldbuilding and fan fiction because they like filling in those blanks
You're right in this being a draw for a lot of people, but i see it more as an out-of-text thing and one that doesn't even require the story deliberately leaving things vague. Take for example the Worm webnovel, whose text includes super-detailed worldbuilding, that is near-exhaustive when taken together with its "sequel". Many writers in the setting, especially in the spacebattles community, have a complicated relationship with Ward and some themes of the original work, which is why they often intentionally play loose with canon.

Ultimately you can only make the far weaker statement, that a community into worldbuilding and fanfiction may elevate an otherwise lackluster story.

>>47784
I think this type of fandom is just bad for writing, ultimatly, worldbuilding doesn't matter much, a story may have a well made interesting setting, if the writing doesn't follow, then it's worthless in terms of art, even if it might sell well among a certain community.
It's also weird to see it being heralded as some major criticism, you'll even see people direct it towards children's books like Harry Potter, when nonsensical worlds parodying our own has been a staple of children's litterature for a while, just see Roahl Dahl's books.
I'll say that letting plot unresolved if often fairly bad, you don't need to explore every background character's life, if anything, an encyclopedic explaination of everything just hurts the immersion of the reader.

>>47783
no anon is clearly saying that you leave some things that are open to interpretation, not that you never wrap up the main plot. like the suitcase in pulp fiction. nobody sees what's inside of it. it's fun to speculate whether it's supernatural or not. but the plot isn't left dangling.

I'm taking part in a kind of stupid tournament on a webnovel website. I had no time to really think of a novel world so it is just mediaeval European fantasy which I kind of hate. I'm trying out daily releases for chapters (which means the quality of prose is not what I'd like), but nobody is reading lol. It's not my best work but if you want to read its here: https://www.honeyfeed.fm/novels/31816

Should I drop aspirations of being a conservationist? I find myself lucky enough to be able to go back for a second degree and have wanted to get a degree in biology since before I finished my first, entirely unrelated to that field (though much more marketable), degree. Everyone seems to be in love with environmental rape and collapse now and I can't muster much hope in regards to the importance of futilely trying to keep the various floundering ecologies of the world afloat anymore.

I'd resigned myself to the truth of environmental collapse but reading daily about how America has decided to kill another endangered species, actively, entirely without any remorse, has become more than I can handle.

I don't want to be doing shit in an office 'till I die, but I don't know if going back to follow what I'm actually interested and passionate about will yield much fruit, if any at all.

Destroying nature is a good thing.

https://benthams.substack.com/p/against-biodiversity

>The total amount of suffering per year in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. During the minute it takes me to compose this sentence, thousands of animals are being eaten alive; others are running for their lives, whimpering with fear; others are being slowly devoured from within by rasping parasites; thousands of all kinds are dying of starvation, thirst and disease.


>For example, there’s an organism called the new world screwworm that that lays magots in the flesh of their victims, causing almost incomprehensible amounts of agony as the maggots eat their way out from the inside. These worms also tend to live pretty short lives of intense suffering. So when we got rid of the new world screwworm in north America—ridding the continent of a miserable animal that reproduces by torturing other animals—I think that was a great thing! It’s possible it will turn out bad because of some weird ripple effects, but if things are as I’ve supposed, then it seems pretty great. In case you doubt my position, as you can see below, I’ve depicted it as the Chad and the alternative view as the crying angry person, so it’s very likely true.

kill utilitarians
behead utilitarians
roundhouse kick a utilitarian into the concrete
slam dunk a utilitarian baby into the trashcan
crucify filthy utilitarians
defecate in a utilitarian's food

there is more need for conservationists now than ever before, millions despise and oppose the rape of the earth and you will find friends everywhere who will help you, even if it's not financially rewarding

Growing up I would see villains in fiction whose ideologies are so retarded that it de-immersed me from what I was reading, but as an adult I've come to realize that reactionaries are simply like that and have podcasts and substacks where they say so plainly.

I used to hate how cartoonishly evil villains were in some work of fiction, and thought moral ambiguity and all sides doing bad things was closer to the truth. Now I am an adult ruled and I realized real life is full of cartoonishly evil villains.

Holy shit if you actually read these guys they're straight-up ancaps and fascists. They're all small-government nationalists obsessed with life, liberty and private property. They already do the whole Schmittian state of exception thing with the state of war. And they're okay with slavery as long as its against the ignorant or its a state of war. Basically, the worst kind of dark satanic mill shit. Like Mill wants to freely sell alcohol and then put drunkards in labor camps. Nietzsche and nihilism are irrelevant, the fascists are straight-up copies of Locke and Mill. And to be honest, the Liberals do that really long-winded and dull prose that fascists do as well.

- "Two Treatises of Government" by John Locke https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/john-locke/two-treatises-of-government
- "On Liberty" by John Stuart Mill https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/john-stuart-mill/on-liberty

Nietzsche is for the failsons specifically

>>25165
Are you 15?

>>25223
Obviously I meant that Schmit and the ancaps elaborated on tendencies already pre-existing in liberalism.

Fascists use philosophical and intellectual pretexts because, due to their ideology, they completely fail to understand the richness and nuance of discourse. Unfortunately, you do not offer a nuanced perspective on the issue; Mill's anti-slavery stance would have been interesting in this specific context. Furthermore, please elaborate on your statement: according to which philosophy or definition do you really see fascism, with examples? Locke refers to a limitation of the state's room for maneuver, which is indeed damaging, but these are founding texts, and what followed was not the intention of their authors.

Anime is pretty much the only place today where you can make high-budget, high-production art where sex is a major focus, without becoming outright pornography. There's a lot you could do with that. There should be more erotic thrillers, or gritty dramas about the psychology of sex, or trippy surreal erotica, and really just anything more interesting than mid action with jiggly boobs or comedies that mostly come down to "oh noes I accidentally groped her boob!" I'm not saying there isn't anything that stands out, every few years something does, the Fujiko Mine anime is a recent example of something that felt pretty fresh, but for all the money and attention that gets poured into this genre, it feels like the ambition is almost null.
