"Admire" is excessive. @BillyONare

[BillyONare]

I admire what I admire and I’m honest about it. No need to be longhoused by people who haven’t listened to a single episode of AF. “Imagine if a cool nigger (amarnite type) knew you liked Nick Fuentes”.

Competency crisis - the controversy about DEI in the airline industry and its possible negative consequences has been discussed on social media for some time now, but what made me write about the crisis was the recent bridge collapse in Baltimore.
Plumber discourse - this topic came up in the shoutbox some time ago. What should people displaced by affirmative action (and other similarly destructive policies) from desired workplaces and schools do? Plumbing in particular came to my mind because of the story of an Asian applicant, who was rejected from several universities because of affirmative action, and who was then "advised" on twitter by some mainstream conservatard to become a plumber, as that is a useful skill too (I can't find the tweet, but it was something in that vein).
Marrying liberal - some (e.g. 0HPL) argue that women claiming to be conservative and right-wing are attention-whores, or are just undesirable in general, as "normal" women follow what is popular, and the thing to do is to marry a liberal girl and made her follow you. This idea has been discussed here, but maybe a dedicated thread could advance the topic further.

Seconding Plumber Discourse thread. Conservitard tradebro memery is going to dissuade many intelligent young men from the Right (why join a movement when the only prospect is unclogging literal shit from toilets), and theorizing an alternate path could be interesting, at the very least.

I am good friends with Nick Fuentes and still admire him, however I can't get behind the anti-semitic content slop. It's retarded. You can like things without "worshipping" them. You would fit right in in AF with your black and white BPD femalish thinking.

Sorry haha but I hate all political movements. The amarnitical revolution shan't be televised, as they say.

Interestingly enough (I'm the guy you said had "BPD" thinking) I remember watching a Fuentes speech that was incredibly entertaining to an audience of black women in a snowy environment. One of the groids in the audience didn't know Spain was in Europe, and I have not been able to find that video in years. He was wearing a black trenchcoat and this is back when he was basically just /pol/ the person and had a very youthful, non puffy face; as in, before the cRap obsession.
I must have been 11 or so, back in the late 2010s.
Personally, I am averse to your views of admiration because he's a fuckin latinx grifter lol. But I do remember some of his old shenanigans and antics and remember being entertained by them hehe.
Nowadays the only good thing about him is that he steals money from the credit cards of little latino children who want to be "based" and insults them to their face when they talk about being plumbers or something other kek. Still never going to watch an episode of LatinosFirst hahahahaha fuck that!

The "plumbers can muh make six figures" meme is true, thoughever really they mean pipefitters i.e. they don't unclog toilets, they install build piping for factories, malls, oil refineries, schools, skyscrapers, etc. These are projects that require tens of thousands of man hours and I imagine this is actually what most plumbers/pipefitters do, the proportion of hours these projects take dwarfs how many hours it takes to clean the cum and pubic hair out of your shower drain. You guys have a delusional view of the world because things like oil refineries is not something you have to think about, and that's why it's a great industry. Construction is like an alternate universe without black people, women, affirmative action, liberals, etc. It's very meritocratic. You can jump straight to a management role if you're smart, but if not, being a grunt is a good way to make a lot of money fast, which you should do, because bitcoin exists and you should buy bitcoin and a house etc. Easy path to become wealthy. These companies have no social media presence, no prestige, typically privately owned, despite what a great opportunity they are, and they like it that way because they can play fast and loose with laws and regulations. So you have to do some research or know a guy or just start out as a union grunt and look for the highest paying jobs in the middlest of nowhere.

[BillyONare]

It's the same thing for electricians, HVAC, and more specialty trades that you wouldn't even think about like instrumentation (input and output devices on piping to control and monitor an oil refinery or chemical/pharmaceutical plant for example), and fire alarm/sprinkler systems (these are quite complex and expensive but absolutely needed because regulations on these are very strict). Try to get a job from a family member or friend that works in construction. The economy that exists in your mind where being a banker, doctor, or lawyer is the best way to make money is an illusion. There is far more money and meritocratic opportunity for advancement in professions that are needed to produce things necessary for civilization. You just don't know about it because there is no prestige. Real life is a secret club, but it is also easy to join and advance in based on your talents, just like The Amarna Forum.

Thread on the effect of translating media between mediums. Meaning

Book->film, manga->anime fails more than it succeeds
Film->book, video game->book can include new material such as Halo books. This translation seems pretty successful
Film->video game wide variety. Some kino like The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King but many are basically Fiverr projects
+many others

The thread wouldn’t be focusing on any one of these types or any one piece of media. The idea would be to identify underlying rules/properties by analyzing multiple pieces and figure out why some seem to succeed more often than others.

[Mason Hall-McCullough]

Adaptations can be difficult in general to get right, but my impression is that manga->anime is a type that's often successful. A manga is basically a storyboard.

I have never seen an example of VN->anime I would consider successful on the other hand. Even when the anime is somewhat good, it wasn't enhanced by being an anime and the VN is better. Visual novels are centered around dialogue rather than action by their nature and are slower paced, not to mention they often have branching routes.

Manga->anime usually means adaptations of Shounen Jump trash for mexicans.

[BillyONare]

Manga->anime is usually terrible due to poor animation quality and adapting mangas word-for-word. Shounenslop with badly animated fights punctuating static images of characters flapping their lips making autistic speeches about how "if you kill someone they die". For some reason neither normalFAGGOTS nor autistic weeaboo niggers can even tell that there is a difference in aesthetics and animation quality between Spirited Away and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Part 5: Golden Wind (it's VENTO AUREO YOU FUCKING ILLITERATE 35 YEAR OLD FAGGOT YOU SHOULD HAVE READ THE MANGA TEN YEARS AGO). That's why I loved Digibro. It seemed like he was the only person in the world who could see the obvious things that I could see.



However, romcom manga adaptation and anime originals usually look good, even if they have low budgets.

I think we're due for an actual bicameral mind thread. An honest look into the modern historical and cultural application of the theory beyond Jaynes' timeframe could go a long way.

[Aizen]

This is mainly for my own future reference, but I'd really like to see a thread on this specific writing from William Henry Trescott: https://books.google.com/books?id=By6K9V...&q&f=false.

It's fascinating because Trescott is unapolagetically PRO-Slavery, yet makes no moral judgement on it outside of how good it is for the States south of the Mason-Dixon. Furthermore, he approaches the question of slavery, the organization of the State, and hierarchy from a decidedly English, capitalist, and liberal Point of View. It's one of the most clearpilled things I've ever read, and should be required reading for any one of us who aspires to Public office or work.

A thread on investing. I can't find anything not filled with indian strivers or dishonesty, and as the economy grows worse, making money alternative ways would be of great benefit.
