Re: Libertarian Fools' Paradise

Re: Numbers...
This is what I mean. I'll highlight where I'm feeling the sharpness. I might be wrong. Edit. It's not just here.

Where does one learn these things? I think it all comes under the general umbrella of psychology, but you can find tons of information and examples by reading articles on manipulation in abusive relationships, manipulation in cults, manipulation by con artists and scammers, manipulation by advertis...

Re: God was Sorry
The idea has merit in my mind. I came to the conclusion long ago that life is all about the holes. ;) And so as a result of there always being a kind of gap, that's the gap you know like where the electric spark jumps That's the thing behind your head, behind your eyes that you can never get to loo...

Re: Numbers...
Ok. High spys things just clicked and then unclicked. I think I can now see what high spy has been saying. I appreciate your perspective valo.
