The Humble Libertarian original

It's not a good way to organize a society: comparing the one we have to a hypothetical perfect one in which nothing terrible ever happens. Life has always been a tragedy for everyone who's ever lived. Because there's so much pain. And sooner or later it always ends in death. But this is an amazing life most of us are living in America and even most of the world in the 21st Century! We've created an amazingly very stable, very healthy, very clean, very comfortable, and very safe society. I am all for progress to continue through our spontaneous cooperation to keep making things better every way we can, starting with our selves, and the wonderfully vast sea of good will and benevolence that most people have for others. I am opposed in principle to attempts at progress made via radical political changes to how our society is constituted, using one of the most blunt force trauma instruments in the history of the world: the United States federal government.

(c. 1618 AD) The question slavery abolitionists just can't answer: If your approach is so great, why hasn't any country anywhere in the world ever tried it? Gee, that was easy.

I. Aziz Ansari didn't rape or sexually assault "Grace." But he was definitely being rapey . The critics in the backlash against Babe.net and #MeToo over this have failed to see that. Which is seriously unsettling. And many of them are spreading vile stereotypes about men that I take serious issue with as a man. II. To be fair to Aziz, maybe she's exaggerating or not telling the truth, and we don't know for sure. She could just be a really evil bitch. It's definitely possible. But taking Grace's account at face value, as many columnists have in criticizing her and #MeToo... And assuming it is an accurate representation of what happened that night... He treated her extremely badly. And deserves to be pilloried for it. A popular NYTs opinion column by some smart ass named Bari Weiss was entitled: " Aziz Ansari Is Guilty. Of Not Being a Mind Reader " And what a ridiculous article it was! He was guilty of a lot wors...

If you're going after some hard gains in muscle strength and mass in 2018, lifting smart and hard is the first step, but the second, indispensable step is getting enough protein to start building muscle. This is actually where a lot of people fail. If your body doesn't have the raw materials to bulk up, it just won't be able to, even if it wants to because you've been lifting. From my own experimentation over the last year, I highly advocate cooking and blending high calorie meals with plenty of protein in them. Blending opens up all those calories and nutrients to instant absorption. It makes everything you're taking in readily available to your body without the work of digestion, and it is easier on your digestive tract, which will be important given how much you will have to eat to gain. Pay attention to how you're feeling, but don't worry too much about putting on some fat as well as muscle when you're trying to gain. If you're worried, l...

Outrage is addictive because it burns hot and it feels good, at least for a minute. But it burns fast. And then you need your next hit. And after a while it starts to feel bad. But now it's an addiction. And we keep coming back to it. Most of the time we are uselessly outraged about things outside our sphere of influence. Our outrage is mostly impotent. Which makes us feel not just angry, but weak and powerless. Instead we can make a choice to see all of the opportunities we have each day to exercise our honesty, courage, humor, and kindness instead. Those actually feel much better than outrage. It's usually better to be cool than hot. And these are ways we can do something to influence the world within our reach and make what's in front of us better. And instead of burning us out and leaving us dissatisfied, these give us strength and empower us. Life is too short to spend angry about things we can't influence, while ignoring our own person...

Hello my dear readers, friends, fellow libertarians, and right honorable fellow human beings traveling with me through this great journey called life! You luminous ones, you beautiful 3-dimensional creatures passing through the 4th dimension one slice at a time, and spilling over it into the beyond in the Great Overflow of the Universal Human Spirit! Welcome to my blog, or welcome back! I'm so glad you're here. I have been reading through the first list of 100 Motivational Quotes for Work that I compiled last year, and with each reading, my mind starts to work a little more like the minds of those godlike luminaries whose words are on the list.

"I fear our revolution will have been in vain if a Virginia farmer is to be held in hock to a New York stock jobber, who in turn is in hock to a London banker. The opportunities for avarice and corruption would certainly prove irresistible." -Thomas Jefferson (from the HBO John Adams Miniseries) Bonus: John Adams tearing a new hole in Alexander Hamilton's little bitch ass: My Channels: Facebook Twitter Keep Me Going: Patreon My Tip Jars: (BTC) 1K3E6DsDdJUZRUpcSGnEuNmJn7LzR8Sai1 (BCH) 1H4V8S2CFg9MZCypE86pgayDiS7iagFSUa (ETH) 0xAf56a55e359f2A6eaa5Be7EcF915e512f84beC51 (LTC) La71GdAex1U3q1pb6jD4hdzcK8Hzpj6T64

"Nationalism does nothing but teach you how to hate people that you've never met, and all of the sudden you take pride in accomplishments you had no part in whatsoever..."

Everyone's talking about some actress named Connie Britton because she wore a shirt to the Golden Globes that said "poverty is sexist." Well I agree with her.

Just a moment of pure harpsichord joy.

Anyone else think now might be a good time to get a bargain on U.S. Marijuana Index stocks and maybe make a little money while supporting a new industry with a lot of bold entrepreneurs in it? WaPo "Marijuana stocks tumble after Jeff Sessions announces pot crackdown" I'll still bet on the marijuana industry.
