Yeah he has not really been in the public eye at all since
my man tackling his addiction the badass way
I don't know for sure but I am much more willing to tell my peers that putting stuff in your butt feels good when they mock gay butt sex.
I strongly recommend every man get a decent prostate massager (you get what you pay for with these things) and some water based lube. Just give it a spin.
Jordan Peterson is bad, but he might be the most skilled person at what he does. He has mastered being shitty while at the same time appearing so harmless to most that anyone that calls him shitty looks crazy.
He's also mastered getting addicted to benzos
can u criticize him for me? i dont know much about him except for his view on pronouns
How many of the people here celebrating the guy's suffering have clean rooms and stand up tall with their backs straight? The answer should be self-evident
The 12 Rules for Life -
Looks pretty reasonable to me.

#5 - he makes a particular point in this chapter which I do understand but at the same time I think this is insufficient as a parenting philosophy - children have to be "taught" to do things, not "allowed" to do things
#6 - Zizek's critique of the most famous/commonly satirized rule was interesting, intelligent, accurate - I'm reminded of the MLK quote "It's a cruel jest to say to a bootless man that he ought to lift himself by his bootstraps" - however I think the critique works only theoretically, while in practice the rule stands. In practice it is more effective to focus the majority of your effort on the things you can control and improve in your own life before going out and trying to fix all the broken systems of the world.
Also it's going to piss a lot of people off but I think many of the people doing the whole "the world is broken and we have to break it down further to fix it" thing are in fact misdirecting their own dissatisfaction with themselves, which they may feel powerless to solve on their own
For example (and not singling you out to be mean, nothing against you personally) Slowdive is a communist. He also lives in the US midwest where your possibilities for economic advancement are like A) sell crack cocaine to people with no teeth, or B) become a corrupt politician. Can he really be blamed for thinking the system is irreparably broken? No, but he could probably be disabused of his derangement by experiencing more of life - just like how most teenage anarcho-communists are cured by their first encounter with actual career or financial success.
How can anyone take anything this idiot says seriously?
Amazing the notion that it isn't like this across the us
How is this not a personal attack? @anon31000304 I'd flag this post if I were you
Yup, a complete fucking idiot
This is of course talking around the main point -
Yes the world is broken but we don't know the extent of the obstacles until we try to climb them, and we won't try to climb them if we think they are insurmountable, so it's necessary to tell ourselves they are not insurmountable so that we might actually allow ourselves a chance at succeeding.
#6, to me, is a combination of "you can't accurately survey the obstacles of the mountain while sitting at the bottom" and "focus on the things you can control, ignore the things you can't"
i mean, i dont think its a very hot take that communist sentiments are often motivated by being poor.
it is of course difficult to accurately psychoanalyze any specific individual
What do you think of the other 12 rules?
