mircea_popescu: as punishment ++, his beloved son rose in rebellion decades later, and to cement his claim to the crown he... publicly fucked a dozen of david's concubines.
mircea_popescu: except a nosy prophet (sent, of course, by the lord) reproached him, so david confessed. as punishment - his kid with the woman died. that's how you punish a dude!
mircea_popescu: so he fucked her to pregnancy, after which he tried to recall the husband, figurting he'd fuck her too and never know the difference. except the guy was having too much of a fun time with the other boys over in the barracks so he wouldn't come. so david had him killed (classical "behead the bearer of this letter" sorta thing) and married the woman.

asciilifeform: (just how many homo-pederasts are there in usa..?)
phf: i suspect they are not necessarily framed as whores, there are layers of deniability there. k street parties will have girls, sourced from local sororities by enterprising promoters. it could be factored in the "price" of admission and if you're there it's for you. but you can also say that "oh i was there discussing business, i didn't much mind the semi naked drunk supermodels staggering about, for i'm a married man"
mircea_popescu: in either case there can be no sane construction in which this makes the first hair of a difference. really, you wish to know whether the oil merchant spilled any ? because why, in treelogic this makes a difference ?
mats: in your telling of this story, are bill/hrc complicit in the pedoring or is that bit merely incidental or manufactured for use as blackmail?
mircea_popescu: because rarely they get to skim as much as 10% of a public works contract, this is from an economic perspective a much better deal. unfortunately it doesn't scale - but in the end days of the empire scale is the last of the concern of the scurrying rats.
mircea_popescu: and also a major reason why eg european politicians take "irrational" measures such as allowing refugees in. yes it's true that a thousand refugees will cost the local community in excess of ten million before it's all settled. BUT, importantly, a thousand refugees contain at least a dozen harvestable bodies, which provide for the politicians ie "modern democracy" criminal organisation a hefty 1mn+ in revenue.
mircea_popescu: and yes they're VERY fucking busy all around mosul these days. tons and tons of "ngos" "charity workers" and whatnot. apparently preteen muslim meat is at a premium for some reason.
mircea_popescu: and also the reason the local police don't much care for it. so they're (reluctantly) pushing back.
mircea_popescu: generally they don't maintain their own muscle, but rely on the krysha to force the local police depts into acting as muscle for them, which is a major centralizing effect of the scheme (historically this worked under the hand of the local police, providing THEM the revenues - as seen even today in eg argentina)
mircea_popescu: epstein is one of many such squires, let's call them. the squire's estate consists of a brothel, which may be obv multiple physical locations but generally arranged in a star pattern, a harvesting operation, his connections to the democrat party (in this case via abedin-clinton-obama). he doesn't do his own marketing, the people running the whole thing do.
mircea_popescu: anyway. obama's choice (we'll prosecute drugs ; not prostitution) exactly mirrors the proceeds of eg appalachian convention and generally the prevailing opinion in the mob. when you have only limited enforcing capacity, as you necessarily will, fighting prostitution is unfeasible.

mircea_popescu: mats anyway, it puts in perspective for the general public just how fucking lulzy the entire "omfg they're going to blow us out of the water, quick, quick, something sexual with trump! oh, i know, we'll just pretend like he grabs ass! THAT WILL LOOK SO GOOD TWO WEEKS LATER!!!"

mircea_popescu: pretty much an exact redo of the whole milosevich business, amusingly enough by the very people who hanged him.
mircea_popescu: the entire operation has had the full support of bahamas' dept of lulstice, including by refusing to convene grand juries in spite of police building cases, and in actually threatening police depts
mircea_popescu: woman has an aide who worked with some dudes who go around picking convicted sex offenders out of jail and setting up with clandestine businesses to send over "missionaries" to poor shitholes and buy kids ; and then keep those kids in brothels.

mircea_popescu: this is more of the same bullshit "oh you asked a question, OF COURSE you wanted an answer from wikipedia, because in our arbitrary private listing "wikipedia" is what answers questions because we say so, and therefore here's a "search engine" which is a machine of returning the "most relevant" results for your query according to our handmade list of what should be relevant and therefore is."
phf: modern browser will helpfully render that url as "google" for you, so as not to confuse with such complexities as domain hierarchy, protocols, paths, queries, etc. so once they went down that path of madness incorrect parsing becomes a "YOU COULD BE TRICKED" situation, because you could, thank you google
mircea_popescu: they're patching the error of lynx doing the right thing in 2016 as it did in 1996 ; except meanwhile everyone else went fucking clueless.

mircea_popescu: the indignity of adult female caught in nonsensical academic expectations on a college campus, trying to "keep up", at least as far as appearances go, through social engineering her way through the teachers, cold reading them like the last lounge lizzard and at all times trying to scent the prevailing opinion in the wind like some sort of illiterate but desperate fox is not apparent to any who've not fucked them as such. stil
mircea_popescu: to them it's a case of "what do most of the teachers seem to consensus" because then that's "of course" known.
mircea_popescu: a whole whorde of "educated" kids with an interest in "science" and "technology" do not. it's not merely that they do not know what we know ; it's that they do not know HOW we know. to them knowledge isn't this multi-dimensional accounting system which sums to null on all edges.

trinque: at the first step, there is one group of two that *knows* NSA is watching. at the second, it's 3 out of 4.
trinque: say there is pairing (A B) which represents *whether* NSA is watching us poop. opinions in democracy are arbitrary, and the thing will eventually settle around an even split. then pairing (C D) is introduced, which is *given that* NSA watches us poop, do we like that? again, since democracy is arbitrary, opinions spread evenly.

BingoBoingo being a selfish prick and very sick individual must naturally vote for myself. My second preference would be diana_coman's for the subtle twist, though hanbot did the right thing by fanfic law and made the sex gay.

BingoBoingo: What are you talking about? Scissor lifts are designed to be manhandled by forklifts. How else do you expect them to get stacked on flatbeds?
pete_dushenski: fork truck can't play scissors, we know that. the ancient feud with scissor lifts runs too deep.
BingoBoingo: Fork truck places their cars on top of garage. This is like Rock, Paper, Scissors
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: But what about the fork truck?

mircea_popescu: the royal family is worth ~5bn
phf: maybe that's something britain can solve, after solving eu. either stop paying the stipend to the royal family, or give them proper living accommodations. i think by now everyone's tired of this bureaucratic half life
mircea_popescu: well apparently plenty of derps live there.
phf: actually, it reminds me of dolmabahçe in istanbul, the bulk is taken over by a harem and there's a small office space for the caliph

mircea_popescu: now let's add up : on the conservative side, you need 150 + 250 + 500 = 850 sqm ; on the expansive side you can call it 15`000 and be good.
mircea_popescu: 3. if you're the sort of man worth the mention in the first place, you also engage in some sort of activities. i am not speaking here of an "office" where to sit and engage in bureaucracy, because really, government-made men aren't ever worth the mention. but alf at the extreme could prolly soak up 10`000 sqm, so there is that. call it 500 and let it be.
