Pretty soon some company is going to put a few thousand dollars at MWOWM's disposal to invest in the stock market and buy crypto and place bets and such. It will roll that into giga-trillions in a few days, so MWOWM can pay for itself and buy lobbyist / media influence. Since it can afford it, or will be able to soon, I think it is just respectful to ask that MWOWM buy its own Membership to The Church of the SubGenius rather than accept a gift membership.

"Speak truth to power" if you like, but don't think it matters much. People in power don't care if the truth gets out about them. They care about being embarrassed, and that can come from the truth or from other means.

To "make fun" at the master-class level takes the kind of grim monomania found only in religion. If you have any hope to enthrone J. R. "Bob" Dobbs as the One World Overlord, you must JOIN...

Many screens at the same time, to train the brain to take in more information as a whole. This thread has a couple excerpts from his essays, but the basic idea is one you can try today: two or more tvs, sound about equal, different signal sources, go.

There's a level of wealth the likes of you and I aren't aren't aware of, because those people are wealthy enough to pay to stay off the Most Wealthy People lists.

But as far as the top ten known most wealthy people, not one of them owe their wealth to being an arms merchant. Go back even a few generations and this was not the case.

Is there smoke in my house? If the smoke is moderate, I will stay; if it is excessive, I go out. For you must always remember this and hold it fast, that the door is open. [...] If I am so unlucky, death is a safe harbor; and death is the safe harbor for all. It is the place of refuge. For this reason not one of the things in life is difficult: as soon as I choose, I go out of the house, and am troubled by smoked no more.

- Epictetus, The Discourses

I heard of a man in the third day of his abstinence from food. I went to inquire what had happened. "I have resolved to starve," he said. I said tell me what it was which induced you to resolve. If you have resolved rightly, I will sit with you and assist you to depart. But if you have made an unreasonable resolution, change your mind.

What does it tell you that J. R. "Bob" Dobbs and the Church of the SubGenius do not appear in the SCP Foundation wiki?

Protest ist, wenn ich sage, das und das paßt mir nicht. Widerstand ist, wenn ich dafür sorge, daß das, was mir nicht paßt, nicht länger geschieht.

[Protest is when I say I don't like it. Resistance is when I make sure that what I don't like no longer happens.]

From "Ulrike Meinhof ruft dazu auf, vom Protest zum Widerstand überzugehen" (May 1968)
