'Gram the Grownup #4 Alexander Mercouris

[Roshan]

Oh, fuck. I made the same mistake.

I moved the thread into the private section and clicked 'leave shadow topic' thinking it would just say where the thread was moved and now I'm stuck with two of 'em and I won't be able to delete this one without deleting the other.

You should do something about this feature some day Vincenzo. But for now

so so be it.

We can just discuss the actual typing here and I'll make a part 2 in the private section for the rest of it.

[Roshan]

He wrote about it here

Not done reading yet, but at some point he calls his disbarment "the best thing that could have happened".

So I've read it. Why didn't you tell me he wrote about his madness being iatrogenic, Vincent?

tbc, there are a few odd dream weavinesses and holes in the weaves too to his narrative on Medium, but still...kinda seems important? No, not to say he's a paragon of mental health, no, but psych med-induced rank psychosis is a thing. And maybe not quite so Blanche Dubois...

Maybe you didn't get to that part? I thought you were continuing reading it.

[Roshan]

I think it must have been before though, because if it were after I should have a distinct recollection of factoring it in. However, the scandal definitely helped me to 'settle' on it.

I just remember taking a moratorium from thinking because I was so upset and I never fully recovered. I don't remember that contributing to any new typing thoughts.

The reason I decided to stop looking into him once I posted the poll was I wanted to have some way of comparing my typing impressions to other people's. But I guess that doesn't really make sense, since I would have already known what mine had been if I'd gone on. Like I said, I typed him before the 'bombshell' hit, and I'm not changing the typing, but it would have definitely been good to see that Medium article earlier (and probably more to be revealed).

[Roshan]

One thing about his ct that hit me while i was walking to day care center is that he seems more likely to be shadowing into Dugin than into Fukuyama, so to speak.

And he never annoys me in a conflictorish way.

[Roshan]

I looked at his aborted old blog. It is massively Si heavy. In the Bronte entry, it's like he's litigating on her behalf not to sully her name with these rumors. It's all about legacy and the historical record. In the entry on Metropolis, he writes again about the heart and head, and HAND (which is the three E bodies). I did not realize (if) he was talking about Metropolis on the new Duran video, didn't continue listening yet, will check.

He is very, very Si heavy, obviously without its being frame. If he is FiNe he really SHOULD be a jumper; otherwise it's FiNi with humungous Si demo. The latter can happen and yes he starts to sound so heavy Ni/Te it doesn't seem Ne second even for a jumper, but considering his heritage and legal training, and probably his holding tightly on to sanity too, I will 'stick with my vote.

[Roshan]

I can't read that article just yet. He upsets me enormously. I can only deal with pushing out the envelope on him incrementally.

I'm over the hump now. Bring it on, Ἀλέξανδρος.

Bring it on.

[Roshan]

Yes, he is talking about Metropolis in the new Duran video, but he is disparaging this heart mediating the head and hand, saying it's the errant way of modernity. I will have to read that Metropolis blog in full and carefully, it's obviously crucial to him. May need garlic and a cross to protect me from Si overwhelm.

He is nothing short of exultant in this video at the thought of the imminent demise of the Empire. I don't blame him after what happened with the psych meds,but be careful what you wish for. Dugin is a fucktard. Also sprach Roshanak.

Watching the Duran video...

to assume someone like him has to be image last, especially if sx last is assumed, is to forget that this triad is first the heart triad, and only then the image triad.

[Roshan]

New video.

See what I mean? Who's a happy camper?

Oh no, i wasn't done reading it.I still haven't.
I skimmed over it and the part i quoted positively reframing the disbarment being the "best thing that could have happened" jumped at me.

I will read it when i come back from work.
