For some reason, YouTube recently recommended a video to me with the title “The disturbing life of German pensioners in Thailand”. The video is in German, but even without subtitles, you will quickly figure out what it is about. Even the video thumbnail, which puts a supposedly 73-year-old guy next two four Thai women who… Continue reading White, Male Pensioners Are Not Allowed to Enjoy Life
Recently I spoke with a friend about nightlife in Berlin in the late 2000s compared to today. While there were obvious changes in the demographics of the various districts, i.e. the city is more diverse than ever and rental prices have skyrocketed in the wake of large-scale gentrification, there is another aspect that is perhaps… Continue reading Low-Budget Airlines and Female Party Tourism
A lot of very odd events happen in the world. Out of nowhere a politician, possibly even a present or a presidential candidate, gets shot, skyscrapers collapse, helicopters crash, and key witnesses who are described as happy-go-lucky personalities suddenly commit suicide by shooting themselves in the back of their skull. I am not even exaggerating… Continue reading Schizo Thinking: How to Identify a Potential False Flag Operation
There is the view that government is not incompetent. Instead, everything our rulers want to happen also happens. This was true to some extent for the longest time, with the caveat that large governments cannot be efficiently run, meaning that there is always the possibility of conflicting interests and internal rivalries. That being said, our… Continue reading Botched Government Conspiracies and Female Thinking
Most of you are probably aware that Pavel Durov, the CEO of the messenger app Telegram, the messenger of choice of the discerning gentleman, has recently been arrested in France. This presumably happened at the behest of the United States. In this article, though, I am not going to discuss how the globo homo government… Continue reading Organizational Bloat in Tech Companies
Here is a simple exercise for your critical reasoning skills: when following mainstream news, you quite frequently come across rather disturbing stories. We hear that cancer rates are up. There are now also turbo-cancers around. Young people get cancer, too, something that used to virtually never happen. Similarly, for a couple of years, there has… Continue reading Experts Baffled: Fewer Pregnancies, More Cancers
A friend recently sent me the video below, in which a diverse Google manager, Mo Gawdat, talks about how “intelligent” AI is, making some truly outlandish claims. By the way, Mo is shorthand for “Mohammad”. (I have met a surprising number of Mo’s in tech.) Anyway, Mohammad Gawat tells us that he current version of… Continue reading Putting the AI Hype in Perspective
There is the hypothesis that highly-functional autism, i.e. Asperger’s, is nothing more than a manifestation of an “extreme male brain”. People with this condition do not care much about social validation or conforming to mainstream opinion. These men pursue various interests, normally a small number of them or perhaps just one, and dedicate themselves to… Continue reading Women, Perennial Dabblers

I recently watched part of the documentary The Pickup Game (2019). Obviously, it was made with the intention of depicting the PUA community in a bad light, and in that regard, this documentary surely was a success. Some of the smarter people, however, used their screen time in order to promote themselves and improve their… Continue reading Ross Jeffries and the Problem of Aging PUAs
In a recent post, I had added a reminder that we have video evidence of one woman sucking two dozen dicks in two minutes in a night club, confirming our worst stereotypes about women. However, this is hardly the worst. There is a “performer” on OnlyFans named “Bonnie Blue” who seems to have made it… Continue reading Woman Has Sex with 22 Guys in one Night, 122 in Three Weeks
There are some observations people make about women, such as that women who like to travel and party tend to party a bit harder when they are away from home. They also seem to quite enjoy meeting men once they are in an environment in which they can make use of their relative anonymity. Half… Continue reading Traveling Women and the Problem of Accountability
The original idea of the Olympics was to compete in sports that were not just of a recreational nature. You could make the argument that every single discipline of yore had direct or indirect applications to warfare: riding a horse, running, throwing javelins, jumping, rowing, archery, etc., were all highly relevant skills before the industrialization… Continue reading The Olympics After the Inclusion of Break Dancing
We talked about clothing standards in tech before. In short, there are none. Most men just do not care enough and if you are below a VP-level position you probably do not even interact much with people outside of your company, so it does not seem all that relevant if you wear a T-shirt to… Continue reading Clothes of Men and Women in Tech

I have spent countless hours in clubs and bars. Yet, I am basically a teetotaler. I may have drunk between one and two liters of red wine in all my life, two or three bottles of beer, and I may have taken a puff of a joint once, but my memory is a bit hazy… Continue reading Clubs, Drugs, and Alcohol
At least every few weeks I casually interview, primarily to keep my interviewing skills sharp. It is also good to not have to start from zero whenever the company you work at needs to lay off people, which is a frequent occurrence nowadays. This year I had two interview processes that were a bit different… Continue reading The Feminization of Work Continues: Female-Style Hiring
Yesterday I gave up on a playthrough of the original Final Fantasy VII. I played it back in the day, probably in 1998, perhaps 1999, and liked it quite a bit. For decades, I have been listening to its soundtrack, which is probably worthy of your attention even if you have little interest in video… Continue reading Backlog Clearing: Revisiting Classic RPGs

I recently watched the movie Uncut Gems (2019). Supposedly, it showcases Adam Sandler’s best acting. I completely accidentally came across it, and I watched it for two reasons. One, it was mentioned in one of the disreputable corners of the Internet I like to frequent and, two, it is made by A24, a studio I… Continue reading Uncut Gems (2019): A Movie on Jews, Blacks, and Women
In my last post, I pointed out issues with blindly trusting official data on the housing market as there are underreported aspects that may lead to conclusion that are far different from what the mainstream wants you to believe. Yet, this is simply par for the course in the Western world. In this post, I… Continue reading Dealing With Crime, Western Government Style
A conversation I have been having somewhat frequently in real life, primarily because others bring up the topic, is whether the housing market is good or bad for buyers at the moment. There are a lot of real estate permabulls according to whom housing prices, just like stonks, only ever go up and then there… Continue reading Is the Housing Market Good or Bad? An Exercise in Critical Thinking

From friends and colleagues with young children I sometimes hear pretty baffling stories, such as girls as young as seven or eight having their first period, the so-called menarche. There are some hypotheses for that, such as the rise of single motherhood, to which nature responds by accelerating the sexual maturity of daughters. In the… Continue reading Early Menarche and the Future of Women and Society
I recall occasionally coming across the bizarre term “boy-sober”. A woman was said to be in this state if she enjoys a happy life without men, as if she had kicked a bad habit, not unlike alcoholism. “Boy-sober” is the new “stunning and brave”. Quite recently there seems to have been an uptick in the… Continue reading Women Being “Boy-Sober” is not the Equivalent of MGTOW

It seems that every other week there is a new story about yet another developed country reaching a new low for child births. Singapore had the lowest number of child births in 50 years, the earliest date for which records are available. What is worse, in the early 1970s, Singapore had only about 1/3 of… Continue reading The Baby Crisis Can Be Solved

I recently rewatched Silicon Valley, a TV series that ran for six seasons from 2014 to 2019. There is a lot that is wrong with it, but the first three seasons have some pretty decent humor. My favorite character is Erlich Bachman, whose actor unfortunately got tired of this role and left. Rewatching it was… Continue reading Silicon Valley (2014 – 2019) and Cultural Homogenization

I just came across the YouTube channel Men Only. The delivery is similar to Better Bachelor. The focus is on women’s TikTok videos, which get dissected. This is decent light entertainment, but do not expect any deep thoughts. The video below is pretty good. It shows the ex-mother-in-law of some dude getting worked up about… Continue reading YouTube Channel Recommendation: Men Only
I just posted an article on Ubisoft sabotaging sales of the next Assassin’s Creed game by putting a black samurai front and center. Gamers are not happy about it, so surely this game will not do nearly as well as Ubisoft thinks. Yet, there are also example of games that start perhaps a bit slow… Continue reading How to Save a Failing Video Game
I recently watched the two videos below, which serve as a great example of how well-orchestrated the subversion attempts by the elites are. The context is Ubisoft’s the upcoming game Assassin’s Creed: Shadows. It plays in Japan during the Edo period and it somehow features a black samurai called Yasuke. (There is also a female… Continue reading Ubisoft’s Attempted Rewriting of History with Assassin’s Creed: Shadows
One of the biggest news stories last week was the Crowdstrike software update disaster that led to many millions of Windows computers crashing. The solution was a manual intervention, meaning that millions of working hours were wasted. This affected critical infrastructure, such as airports, as these are the kind of machines companies prefer to have… Continue reading The Microsoft/Crowdstrike Disaster and the Fragility of Modern Society
Joe Biden’s handlers just released a letter informing the public that the most popular man in the universe is not going to run for reelection. If you look at the calendar, you realize that it is the end of July. The election will take place on 5 November. At this point, you may wonder if… Continue reading Biden Out. Trump on Top. WWIII Next.

I just changed the avatars to “RoboHash” for users commenting on this blog. RoboHash seems to be an improvement over the abstract patterns that were displayed next to usernames before. The robot image is generated automatically.
My wife recently sent me a link to a Reddit post in which some woman wrote about her experience in Finance. As a recent graduate, she makes six figures, working in “investor relations”. Details were a bit sparse but her job consists of flying around, looking good, and staying in fancy hotels. While I do… Continue reading Easy Jobs for Good-Looking Women

Alek Novy mentioned, in the current Open Thread, that the actor Tobey Maguire is getting pummeled by the mainstream for dating a much younger woman. He is 49 years old. His girlfriend Lily Chee, is 20 years old. An age-gap of 29 years is beyond the pale for feminists. At best, they tolerate two years… Continue reading Feminists are Scared of Age-Gaps in Relationships

A friend of mine recently sent me a message in which he described a sexual encounter with a woman in her early 30s. It fizzled out because he did not want to commit. While he got what he wanted, she did not. One sentence stuck in my head and I have been reflecting on it… Continue reading When They Are Urgently Looking for a Man to Start a Family With
A few days ago I had to buy something at a medical supply store, hardly the kind of establishment I normally frequent. Judging by the products on display in the store, walking aids are their bread and butter. I was not aware, albeit I am not surprised, that there are various price tiers in order… Continue reading The Tragedy of the Once-Hot Sales Clerk
I wrote a lot about Toni Garrn recently, and her biography also inspired a few follow-up articles. Her mistakes and poor choices tell you a lot about modern women, after all. Recently, Lucretius Carus sent me a video of her. In it, you see her and her then-husband engage in a silly game for Vogue.… Continue reading Why Toni Garrn’s Marriage Had to Fail
