The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

You ok? What's wrong?


Just tired of arguing in the LGBT threads and repeatedly being made to feel like I'm a lesser citizen because of who I am.

I'm taking a hiatus from NSG effective immediately - making an exception only for TET, of course.

I do that from time to time, then I slowly go back in until a whack in the face reminds me why I stopped going into other threads.

It's honestly end of the day, why I dont think I am so smart. I judge intelligence on one thing. How do you learn from mistakes.

Smart people can learn from others mistakes.
Average people learn from their own mistakes
Dumb people cant, and repeat the same mistake again and again.

I use to think I was in the second category, experience has taught me otherwise.

Well it’s real simple.
Basically, there's three grabbers, three taggers, five twig runners, and the player at whack-bat. Center tagger lights a pine cone and chucks it over the basket and the whack-batter tries to hit the cedar stick off the cross rock. Then the twig runners dash back and forth until the pine cone burns out and the umpire calls "hotbox". Finally at the end you count up however many score-downs it adds up to and divide that by nine.

Well I tried to sleep and got a couple hours but now I feel awful as fuck for doing that, and I might have fucked up my circadian rhythm even more. Seriously people send me some help.

What exactly is the problem? If it's insomnia, then I'd say - though I wouldn't recommend - a hard reset. Go for a full night without sleep, try to keep yourself up for the whole day, and sleep early as soon as the sun sets.
