The Truth About Modern Therapy || Bad Therapy by Abigail Shrier

Thu, 07 Nov 2024 17:50:25 GMT

In virtually every way that can be measured, Gen Z’s mental health is worse than that of previous generations. Youth suicide rates are climbing, antidepressant prescriptions for children are common, and the proliferation of mental health diagnoses has not helped the staggering number of kids who are lonely, lost, sad and fearful of growing up. What’s gone wrong with America’s youth?

Tue, 18 Jun 2024 17:00:53 GMT

Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties is a book decades in the making.

Over two grim nights in Los Angeles, the young followers of Charles Manson murdered seven people, including the actress Sharon Tate, then eight months pregnant. With no mercy and seemingly no motive, the Manson Family followed their leader's every order - their crimes lit a flame of paranoia across the nation, spelling the end of the 60s. Manson became one of history's most infamous criminals, his name forever attached to an era when charlatans mixed with prodigies, free love was as possible as brainwashing, and utopia - or dystopia - was just an acid trip away.

Thu, 04 Apr 2024 17:00:00 GMT

Review of Noise by Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass R. Sunstein

Imagine that two doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients—or that two judges in the same courthouse give markedly different sentences to people who have committed the same crime. Suppose that different interviewers at the same firm make different decisions about indistinguishable job applicants—or that when a company is handling customer complaints, the resolution depends on who happens to answer the phone. Now imagine that the same doctor, the same judge, the same interviewer, or the same customer service agent makes different decisions depending on whether it is morning or afternoon, or Monday rather than Wednesday. These are examples of noise: variability in judgments that should be identical.

The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer

No other powerful empire ever bequeathed such mountains of evidence about its birth and destruction as the Third Reich. When the bitter war was over, and before the Nazis could destroy their files, the Allied demand for unconditional surrender produced an almost hour-by-hour record of the nightmare empire built by Adolph Hitler. This record included the testimony of Nazi leaders and of concentration camp inmates, the diaries of officials, transcripts of secret conferences, army orders, private letters—all the vast paperwork behind Hitler's drive to conquer the world.

He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

Homo Machina – Amir Husain x The Sentient Machine

Thu, 23 Feb 2023 21:48:00 GMT

Artificial “machine” intelligence is playing an ever-greater role in our society. We are already using cruise control in our cars, automatic checkout at the drugstore, and are unable to live without our smartphones. The discussion around AI is polarized; people think either machines will solve all problems for everyone, or they will lead us down a dark, dystopian path into total human irrelevance. Regardless of what you believe, the idea that we might bring forth intelligent creation can be intrinsically frightening. But what if our greatest role as humans so far is that of creators?

The Bed of Procrustes, by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, takes its title from Greek mythology: the story of a man who made his visitors fit his bed to perfection by either stretching them or cutting their limbs. It represents Taleb’s view of modern civilization’s hubristic side effects—modifying humans to satisfy technology, blaming reality for not fitting economic models, inventing diseases to sell drugs, defining intelligence as what can be tested in a classroom, and convincing people that employment is not slavery.

I am no man, I am dynamite – Friedrich Nietzsche x Ecce Homo

Thu, 05 Jan 2023 21:18:52 GMT

Ecce Homo is an autobiography like no other. Deliberately provocative, Nietzsche subverts the conventions of the genre and pushes his philosophical positions to combative extremes, constructing a genius-hero whose life is a chronicle of incessant self-overcoming. Written in 1888, a few weeks before his descent into madness, the book passes under review all of Nietzsche's previous works so that we, his “posthumous”readers, can finally understand him, on his own terms. He reaches final reckonings with his many enemies, including Richard Wagner, German nationalism, “modern men” in general, and above all Christianity, proclaiming himself the Antichrist. Ecce Homo is the summation of an extraordinary philosophical career, a last great testament to Nietzsche's will.

336 Please Stop Helping Us by Jason L. Riley || Race Relations

Thu, 15 Dec 2022 22:18:21 GMT

We take a look at Please Stop Helping Us by Jason L. Riley. In Please Stop Helping Us, Jason L. Riley examines how well-intentioned welfare programs are in fact holding Black Americans back. Minimum-wage laws may lift earnings for people who are already employed, but they price a disproportionate number of Blacks out of the labor force. Affirmative action in higher education is intended to address past discrimination, but the result is fewer Black college graduates than would otherwise exist. And so it goes with everything from soft-on-crime laws, which make Black neighborhoods more dangerous, to policies that limit school choice out of a mistaken belief that charter schools and voucher programs harm the traditional public schools that most low-income students attend.

Thu, 08 Dec 2022 19:09:40 GMT

We take a look at Emma by Jane Austen. Emma, by Jane Austen, is a novel about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued romance. The novel was first published in December 1815. As in her other novels, Austen explores the concerns and difficulties of genteel women living in Georgian-Regency England; she also creates a lively comedy of manners among her characters.Before she began the novel, Austen wrote, "I am going to take a heroine whom no one but myself will much like." In the first sentence she introduces the title character as "Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich." Emma is spoiled, headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly overestimates her own matchmaking abilities; she is blind to the dangers of meddling in other people's lives; and her imagination and perceptions often lead her astray.Once Upon a VampireRead with me: Aspiring Authorskawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads

Thu, 20 Oct 2022 18:53:57 GMT

We take a look at A Conflict of Visions by Thomas Sowell. Controversies in politics arise from many sources, but the conflicts that endure for generations or centuries show a remarkably consistent pattern. In this classic work, Thomas Sowell analyzes this pattern. He describes the two competing visions that shape our debates about the nature of reason, justice, equality, and power: the "constrained" vision, which sees human nature as unchanging and selfish, and the "unconstrained" vision, in which human nature is malleable and perfectible. A Conflict of Visions offers a convincing case that ethical and policy disputes circle around the disparity between both outlooks.Once Upon a VampireRead with me: Aspiring Authorskawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads

Thu, 11 Aug 2022 18:12:13 GMT

This is the final part of our look at Hostages No More by Betsy DeVos. Long before she was tapped by President Trump to serve as secretary of education, DeVos established herself as one of the country’s most influential advocates for education reform, from school choice and charter schools to protecting free speech on campus. She’s unflinching in standing up to the powerful interests who control and benefit from the status quo in education – which is why the unions, the media, and the radical left made her public enemy number one.Once Upon a VampireOr Aspiring Authors Volume 1kawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads

It is here that the philosopher expresses his frustration with the contemporary world and urges man to embrace Dionysian energy once more. He refutes European culture since the time of Socrates, arguing that it is one-sidedly Apollonian and prevents man from living in optimistic harmony with the sufferings of life.Once Upon a Vampirekawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

This is our discussion of War on the West by Douglas Murray. In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows how many well-meaning people have been fooled by hypocritical and inconsistent anti-West rhetoric. After all, if we must discard the ideas of Kant, Hume, and Mill for their opinions on race, shouldn’t we discard Marx, whose work is peppered with racial slurs and anti-Semitism? Embers of racism remain to be stamped out in America, but what about the raging racist inferno in the Middle East and Asia?Once Upon a Vampirekawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

Since then, Amazon has expanded exponentially, inventing novel products like Alexa and disrupting countless industries, while its workforce has quintupled in size and its valuation has soared to nearly two trillion dollars. It’s almost impossible to go a day without encountering the impact of Jeff Bezos’ Amazon, between services like Whole Foods, Prime Video, and Amazon’s cloud computing unit, AWS, plus Bezos’ ownership of The Washington Post.

296 13 Bankers & Liar’s Poker || God Does Not Play Dice But Bankers Do

Thu, 31 Mar 2022 20:03:31 GMT

We take a look at two books about the financial apocalypse. The first book is 13 Bankers by Simon Johnson and James Kwak. The second book is Liar's Poker by Michael Lewis. 13 Bankers In spite of its key role in creating the ruinous financial crisis of 2008, the American banking industry has grown bigger, more profitable, and more resistant to regulation than ever. Anchored by six megabanks whose assets amount to more than 60 percent of the country’s gross domestic product, this oligarchy proved it could first hold the global economy hostage and then use its political muscle to fight off meaningful reform. 13 Bankers brilliantly charts the rise to power of the financial sector and forcefully argues that we must break up the big banks if we want to avoid future financial catastrophes.Liar's PokerThe time was the 1980s. The place was Wall Street. The game was called Liar’s Poker.Michael Lewis was fresh out of Princeton and the London School of Economics when he landed a job at Salomon Brothers, one of Wall Street’s premier investment firms. During the next three years, Lewis rose from callow trainee to bond salesman, raking in millions for the firm and cashing in on a modern-day gold rush.Once Upon a Vampirekawfeehaus@protonmail.comFinally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

294 The Oresteia by Aeschylus || The 100 Greatest [#72]

Thu, 24 Mar 2022 15:56:18 GMT

We take a look at The Oresteia by Aeschylus. In the Oresteia Aeschylus addressed the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration. In Agamemnon, a king's decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution; The Libation Bearers deals with the aftermath of Clytemnestra's regicide, as her son Orestes sets out to avenge his father's death; and in The Eumenides, Orestes is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased. Forming an elegant and subtle discourse on the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, The Oresteia is a compelling tragedy of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society.Once Upon a Vampirekawfeehaus@protonmail.com Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

276 And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks by Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs

Wed, 13 Oct 2021 19:51:25 GMT

We take a look at And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks by Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs. In the summer of 1944, a shocking murder rocked the fledgling Beats. William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, both still unknown, we inspired by the crime to collaborate on a novel, a hard-boiled tale of bohemian New York during World War II, full of drugs and art, obsession and brutality, with scenes and characters drawn from their own lives. Finally published after more than sixty years, this is a captivating read, and incomparable literary artifact, and a window into the lives and art of two of the twentieth century’s most influential writers.Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

273 American Marxism by Mark Levin

Tue, 28 Sep 2021 15:00:42 GMT

We take a look at American Marxism by Mark Levin. In American Marxism, Levin explains how the core elements of Marxist ideology are now pervasive in American society and culture—from our schools, the press, and corporations, to Hollywood, the Democratic Party, and the Biden presidency—and how it is often cloaked in deceptive labels like “progressivism,” “democratic socialism,” “social activism,” and more. With his characteristic trenchant analysis, Levin digs into the psychology and tactics of these movements, the widespread brainwashing of students, the anti-American purposes of Critical Race Theory and the Green New Deal, and the escalation of repression and censorship to silence opposing voices and enforce conformity. Levin exposes many of the institutions, intellectuals, scholars, and activists who are leading this revolution, and provides us with some answers and ideas on how to confront them.Finally on Twitter @KawFee_Haus Read new articles at KawFee Haus Korner on Substack Consider supporting the show on Patreon See what I'm reading on Goodreads Check out my book

"In certain young people today like these two from my writing workshop, I notice what I find increasingly troubling: a cold-blooded grasping, a hunger to take and take and take, but never give; a massive sense of entitlement; an inability to show gratitude; an ease with dishonesty and pretension and selfishness that is couched in the language of self-care; an expectation always to be helped and rewarded no matter whether deserving or not; language that is slick and sleek but with little emotional intelligence; an astonishing level of self-absorption; an unrealistic expectation of puritanism from others; an over-inflated sense of ability, or of talent where there is any at all; an inability to apologize, truly and fully, without justifications; a passionate performance of virtue that is well executed in the public space of Twitter but not in the intimate space of friendship."Finally on Twitter @KawFee_HausRead KawFee Haus KornerConsider supporting the show on PatreonSee what I'm reading on GoodreadsCheck out my book

256 Poetics and Rhetoric by Aristotle Discussion

Thu, 13 May 2021 22:49:49 GMT

We have our discussion about Poetics and Rhetoric by Aristotle. In the Poetics, his near-contemporary account of classical Greek tragedy, Aristotle examine the dramatic elements of plot, character, language and spectacle that combine to produce pity and fear in the audience, and asks why we derive pleasure from this apparently painful process. Taking examples from the plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, the Poetics introduced into literary criticism such central concepts as mimesis ('imitation'), hamartia ('error') and katharsis, which have informed serious thinking about drama ever since. Aristotle explains how the most effective tragedies rely on complication and resolution, recognition and reversals, while centring on chaaracerts of heroic stature, idealised yet true to life. One of the most perceptive and influential works of criticism in Western literary history, the Poetics has informed serious thinking about drama ever since.Consider supporting the show on PatreonSee what I'm reading on GoodreadsCheck out my book

One of the most perceptive and influential works of criticism in Western literary history, the Poetics has informed serious thinking about drama ever since."It is simplicity that makes the uneducated more effective than the educated when addressing popular audiences." ARISTOTLE'S RHETORIC is an ancient Greek treatise on the art of persuasion, dating from the 4th century BC. Aristotle is generally credited with developing the basics of the system of rhetoric that "thereafter served as its touchstone", influencing the development of rhetorical theory from ancient through modern times. The Rhetoric is regarded by most rhetoricians as "the most important single work on persuasion ever written."Consider supporting the show on PatreonSee what I'm reading on GoodreadsCheck out my book

Sixty million abortions later, women aren’t showing signs of health, happiness, and fulfillment.

#230 Antifragile by Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Tue, 08 Dec 2020 20:12:23 GMT

We take a look at Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. Just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension, and rumors or riots intensify when someone tries to repress them, many things in life benefit from stress, disorder, volatility, and turmoil. What Taleb has identified and calls “antifragile” is that category of things that not only gain from chaos but need it in order to survive and flourish.Get the bookConsider supporting the show on PatreonSee what I'm reading on GoodreadsRead my amateur fiction analysis

We take a look at The Quest for Cosmic Justice by Thomas Sowell. This is the Ben Shapiro Reading List. Support the show on PatreonSee what I'm reading on GoodreadsThis is not a comforting book -- it is a book about disturbing issues that are urgently important today and enduringly critical for the future. It rejects both "merit" and historical redress as principles for guiding public policy. It shows how "peace" movements have led to war and to needless casualties in those wars. It argues that "equality" is neither right nor wrong, but meaningless. (Description)

While the Biden campaign has not openly denied the validity of the emails, Biden could deny any meeting took place notwithstanding whatever is implied in the emails.Apple Cider Donuts are delicious.

Fri, 09 Oct 2020 18:52:00 GMT

Off the cuff ramblings about the Vice Presidential debate, the state of the Media, movies, and Donuts. Episode Clarifications:Regal has indicated they are closing all theaters, not AMC. The evidence of Hillary Clinton's involvement is still relatively ambiguous. While her campaign is alleged to have financed the discredited Steele Dossier and new evidence suggests she might have been involved in furthering the Russiagate attack on the incoming Trump Administration, this is in no way a settled question and requires more evidence. Allegations that Clinton "orchestrated" the Russia Narrative are currently overblown. A Black Lives Matter cofounder openly admitted in an interview to be a "trained Marxist," i.e., trained in disruption and agitation for political purposes. Nicolas Winding Refn is apparently working in television. Abigail Shrier wrote Irreversible Damage. Support the show on Patreon

#82 Notch One For the Good Guys

Tue, 09 Apr 2019 02:20:07 GMT

The creator of minecraft and nouveau riche Notch has said some controversial things on social media (my gorge rises at that term now). In game references to him have been removed by Microsoft, purchasers of the rights to the game, and speculation is that it was because of those tweets.

Thu, 10 Jan 2019 20:35:27 GMT

The Good Book contains some curiously antiquated sentiments about women. Some French theologians believe this can often be attributed to a "patriarchal reading" of the word or diluted word of God. In service of modern theological feminism they are releasing their own translation.

#53 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Basic Accounting

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 20:30:07 GMT

I really wish politicians would resist pouncing on every bit of information in any context to support an ideological position. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 29 year old topic du jour, believes that quantifying accounting errors in dollar terms is sufficient to claim that between 1998 and 2015 the Pentagon lost $21 Trillion, which is actually more than the total budget of the Pentagon for the entire history of the country.https://www.dailywire.com/news/38941/ocasio-cortez-gets-roasted-after-strikingly-ryan-saavedrahttps://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/12/3/18122947/pentagon-accounting-error-medicare-for-all
