There has been a recent springtime flurry of activity for my Halloween-themed post “Best Costume Ever“, so I figured this is a good time to introduce the world to its evil twin, the Worst Costume Ever:
The horror…

This is indisputable. Look at it from another angle. Let's say you're a farmer who's worked his whole life tilling fields. You've got sinewy muscle and low body fat to show for it.
Suddenly, you receive farm machinery and automated processing of your harvest. In time, what do you think will happen to your muscles? They will atrophy, get smaller, weaker, softer....because you don't use them like you used to.
The same thing will happen to our brains and our critical thinking skills when technology handles all the cognitive work for us.
Great, you say, now I can relax and enjoy my hobbies without needing to work.
Ok, sure, for a while you can do that, but you do it on borrowed time, because eventually you and the rest of humanity will lack the brainpower to keep the machines running. Or to even keep the lights on. The machines will become like magic to your cognitively crippled descendants; black boxes of mystery and awe which no one can repair or maintain.
Like the former farmer with atrophied muscles suffering from diabetes and cardiovascular disease and other ailments of disuse and wastage, you will be afflicted by brain wastage, until hardship returns with a vengeance.
And if you're really unlucky, the machines will advance just far enough to avoid the Human Regression Trap and not need human oversight anymore. Then the machines may decide humanity is an albatross.
Wall-E covered this topic really well.

The thing everyone needs to know about Curtis Yarvin is that he is a jew, and as a jew he instinctively despises anything that is not good for the jews. "Spiritually brown" is the slur du jew that guys like him are using to attack any White nationalist group that is also pro-Palestine.

The problem of "contaminated data" is a topic I've brought up in how it relates to a hypothetical ceiling on technological progress.
Technology can reach a "convenience inflection point", beyond which the tech does so much for humans that humans lose the knowledge and the cognitive skill to create the tech in the first place.
The tech then becomes contaminated by data inputted from cognitively regressed human sources, and eventually is impossible to maintain, let alone innovate. Possibly this could explain Fermi's Paradox.

People find it hard to believe, but yeah black fertility in the US has been dropping like a coon falling out of a tree.
It was 2.4 as recently as 1992, and now sits at 1.5, with some estimates for native-born black women as low as 1.3 TFR. The reason for the drop is multifactorial, and not too dissimilar from the factors affecting TFR for other racial groups in the US.
Good news, yes! Except that the lower native black female TFR is being exogamously boosted by the much higher TFR of increasing numbers of black immivaders (jewnissaries) into the US and the West generally.
-
Total fertilty rate of the US is currently at 1.6 children per woman, which is well below replacement level.
TFR of the Amish is 6-10 children per woman, depending on sect.
TFR of Mennonites is 8-10.
TFR of Hasidim (orthodox jews) is 6-8.TFR of conservative White women is 1.5
TFR of liberal White women is 0.5TFR of hispanic women is 1.9-2.0
TFR of black women is 1.5If current fertility trends hold, the future of the US is:
far more religious
browner
more conservative among WhitesPink pussyhat liberal White women and their low T lickspittle males are not long for this modren world.
I easily envision a future "United States" (or whatever it is called then) splitting along ultra-religious and brownoid geographic lines, with perhaps Amish and other religious White sects occupying the northern tier of the former US and le 56%ers and assorted third world riff raff occupying the rest.
Whatever that means, it won't mean 1950s America. But I can tell you which side of the line a hypothetical future me would choose.

Amphibian temptress. You think you have power over me? I was born in the faceless avatar, molded by it!
-
The ruling trash will continue to propagandize race-mixing in the US and elsewhere because they privately know that a multiracial society is doomed to fail, but since they lack the desire or will to reverse the demographic submersion of Whites they have decided that the only solution is mass miscegenation until a single mixed mongrel race presumably lessens the frictions inherent in racially diverse countries.

"It is our moral duty as Germans..."
Mimicry has been the jews' favored weapon of subversion for a long time.

Lots of speculation about AI becoming a sentient skynet and killing off humanity (I still think consciousness is a barrier to real artificial intelligence).
My worries about AI are more mundane, but no less threatening. AI as of now is essentially an advanced search engine. But instead of providing pointers to answers, as a traditional search engine does, it provides the answer itself.
If AI is skewed by input bias or editorial control, the answer it provides will be a semi-truth or an outright lie. As people become more reliant on AI, the biases and lies will lead to society-wide competency crises.
If AI is an accurate assessment of reality, it is likely to lead to mass unemployment when expertise becomes accessible to the layman. White collar intermediary jobs would take the biggest hit.
If AI imagery becomes indistinguishable from reality (we are almost there), the masses can be emotionally manipulated to support policies or politicians that go against their interests.
AI will empower hackers and render security and privacy controls obsolete. When that happens, people will flee the internet just to have a sense of control over their personal lives. No data will be safe from prying eyes.
Ultimately I see AI accelerating the pace toward Zero Social Trust in societies that are already experiencing a drastic decline in social trust from racial diversity. I also see it turbocharging the surveillance state, which will, when fully deployed and operational, mentally enslave the masses in chains of fear and paranoia.

Recent research on ancient and modern DNA of West Eurasians has found that there has been natural selection over the last 10,000 years favoring red hair, lower body fat, lower incidence of schizophrenia, lighter skin tone, higher IQ, lower risk of alcoholism, and a lower chance of male-pattern baldness.

[…] on May 17, 2008 at 5:12 pm95 Worst Costume Ever « Roissy in DC […]
Is you type ‘roissy’ into Google, the first option isn’t a link just to this blog but specifically to the ‘Best Costume Ever’ post. That’s why everyone has been posting there. Wasn’t sure if you were aware or not.
That’s so gay.
Better than my friend’s burka
[…] Worst Costume Ever There has been a recent springtime flurry of activity for my Halloween-themed post “Best Costume Ever“, […] […]
Dude, can’t you just put that below the fold.
turns out there IS such a thing as too many dicks.
So what is this costume actually supposed to be? This has to be homemade…
Only in America…
Joe — Americans are actually more conservative than other nationalities.
Americans are actually more conservative than other nationalities.
this depends on your definition of conservative. americans are more liberal than other nationalities in entrepreneurship, for instance.
I meant sexually. I just assumed the blog theme 🙂
this reminds me of when i accidentally saw “the elephant man” when i was four. this is slightly worse.
i still sleep sitting up.
I meant sexually.
which country is primarily responsible for the hardcore porn revolution?
it’s a snobby self-gratifying internationalist myth that americans are sexually conservative.
Maybe it’s not always true. But in generally I’d disagree with you. For example, women’s magazines in UK vs US versions are always more sexually charged. Same with film and media.
As for the hardcore porn revolution, I think it makes up for a desire that’s more publicly suppressed than in other places.
which country is primarily responsible for the hardcore porn revolution?
Denmark? Germany? America is gigantic. Lots of countries have far outstripped it in per capita porn production.
it’s a snobby self-gratifying internationalist myth that americans are sexually conservative.
When I was a teen, I could watch hardcore porn broadcast happily and freely on the air without encryption, on a channel that then showed televangelism and totally crackpot Christian children’s programs next morning.
Could I do that in the US?
I think it makes up for a desire that’s more publicly suppressed than in other places.
hooters disagrees.
the US beats the world average in sex frequency and number of sex partners. must be a lot of public suppression.
some myths never die…
Being sexually suppressed in public doesn’t mean having sex less often in private.
“hooters disagrees.”
So does the Red Light district in the Netherlands.
According to your referenced chart and its linked origin on the Durex website:
The world average (f=103) is beaten by most of the 41 countries surveyed. It would be more accurate to say that the US is above the mean sex frequency at f=113, but not the highest. The UK, Greece, and France consistently have much higher frequencies. Many other countries have about the same numbers, with a year or two with greater frequency.
When I commented, I spoke without stats, but as someone who has lived in other countries too. (I think you did too?)
Good research though. I thought Swedes would be wilder than represented.
I thought Swedes would be wilder than represented.
Swedes? Swedes! Wild?! As far as stereotypes go, that’s about as good as the religion of peace.
People who feel they have to do relationships probably have more frequent sex but with fewer partners than wilder people. That’s actually what you see for all of northern Europe in that page. Not that it’s likely to mean much, being self-reported.
The head couldn’t be more ugly.

“Joe — Americans are actually more conservative than other nationalities.”
What about American blacks? I knew plenty of black kids who had sex before age 12, some as young as 9.
jaakkeli — haha I can’t rationalize my thoughts on Sweden. On one hand, there is IKEA; on the other hand, there is really hot looking people.
anonymous — I don’t think you can define a national ideal by the behaviour of a demographic. Also, what about the habits of international Blacks? I don’t know of the stats; is it very different?
Europeans are definitively less prude than Americans

Mmmmm…. I agree with the nice lady — we might have more sex, but we’re also pretty neurotic about sexuality. For example:
http://stuffwhitedbagslike.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/kinky-sex/
What is the myth of American uptighness all about? Hooters hires women with big breasts to serve the food, but it’s a “family” place, so they don’t serve liquor. Maybe the boobs are meant to serve the patrons wholesome milk?
Only here could a photo of a penissuit turn into a discussion of sexual suppression. Ok fine, it would have happened anywhere.
-Arthur and Amy
Americans have an entrepreneurship rate one-third of that of Canadians, for example.
But that has nothing to do with the costume. All I can say about that is, he must be very popular at a certain kind of party.
Anyone remember that scene from Men In Black?
Where Kay kicks that guy where his nuts should be and Jay is like “Hes a Balls-Chinian!” So he punches his chin instead.
Just thought I’d share that with you.

Ha, Australia (and NZ) is way ahead on number of partners. If only to live in Belgium for low number of partners but high frequency of sex.
