Westside vs. The World

It's on YT now, don't know for how long. It would have been a lot better without the voiceover and without attempting to explain things to people who aren't into PL and won't get it anyway. It paints a more complex picture of Louie Simmons and the Westside crew than the usual narratives. Pete Rubis...

Hahah!

It seems to have started around 2018. Early mugshots, looked relatively youthful. This one isn't the worst. There's another where he looks like a 65 year old serial killer (can't find it).

we better start learning Chinese

One advantage the west has is imagination, as gay as that sounds. Went back to university in 2018 to study more technological design areas and the professor was Chinese. He implored the students from there (one of which was in my group and I'm 99% certain was a spy) that their government has bled ou...

Is it just me, or is there a ton of horribly negative psychic energy oppressing us all rn?

2020 is meant to have been the start of a dark astrological time stretching for the next decade. But if that's too woo-woo...who can deny something feels off and has been for the past few years? At work for the past year people have just been scared, sick, depressed, anxiety-ridden. Covid, vaccines,...

Would bet a good majority of this generation of lifter has no idea who he is. Amazing how such a prolific lifter isn't really in the zeitgeist anymore...aside from Marty Gallagher talking about him at every opportunity.

My default pattern is "everyone seems to be better than me" so an Instagram scroll or seeing lifters, designers (people in the areas I live and work in) doing good things tends to light the fire in me. "Perhaps my best years are gone. When there was a chance of happiness. But I wouldn...

I am confused that they are at war, but tourism is "opening back up". That Putin wants to beat them, but he's allowing exports to resume and the west to intervene.

What's the end game?

Is your world view more negative compared to the past?

Great responses. Associate with good people and be good to them. Ask them for nothing. Give to them. Work. Work more. Work is its own reward. I think with the mounting onslaught of everything, I just have gone into that kaizen mode but have also lost a lot of ambition I once had. I just want to be p...

I follow a wide range of people online, from brass-tacks entrepreneurs to full-blown metaphysical spiritualists. Across the whole spectrum, they're worried or uncertain in the least about the general "vibe" and direction we're headed. Do you think your outlook has changed dramatically sinc...

DALLE-2

One of the refrains I heard early on was "it shouldn't be this good, this early"

As a designer, it is both parts intriguing and confronting. However, I see it as a tool rather than the replacement some doomsday sayers think it is for several reasons.

A female colleague remarked to someone that this guy is a cunt. She used the word. After work last night when everyone had left, she asked me how I was getting along with him. She said the attitude she's seen from him is what she's getting from the owner - and she can't tolerate it. She's looking fo...

Thanks MJS & Boris, your words definitely resonate as well. I think you're both right in the sense that I can't keep humoring it. There was an instance this week where I pushed back with a rhetorical question and he caved in with a resigned laugh and "I don't know". I'm learning he's p...
