unless I can detach that belief...

for me, I'm not filthy rich, but I will be, so money wont be a problem

@Rockets I was like you once, thinking I needed to keep the family line going because of how I was raised. Then I realized that at the rate technology is advancing, transmitting the legacy of my family is no longer an issue when we can just achieve a form of functional immortality by uploading our minds and/or reducing the aging process - transhumanism idea's aside - it's your life and you must live it as you see fit, not for others who live through you vicariously.

something seems off about that for me

About what

well, its not about living vicariously

or is it?

I'm mulling it over

Okay, take your time - no rush.

I can see both how it is selfish, and selfless either way

Yep, I'm nutz. I think my the reason I can't let it go has to do with esoteric ideas

which lie outside of reason

hey guys give me your opinions

for the new hermit herald video, should I have a still background like the "this week in stupid" videos from sargon or should I have some gameplay in the background with the articles on top of it

this week in stupid, that a vid in your list?

from sargon

found it, I'd say use the background, moving stuff is for me a bit distracting if I'm supposed to be reading, unless it's a short read, then you can bounce back and forth

and then the game would be good candy added

Why not try both? Do one video with a static background as you go about your commentary and one with a dynamic background - then see what the majority of your viewers enjoy.

I favor both for different reasons

can't put duplicate videos p

No no, I mean two seperate videos

One topic covered has a static background and then the next topic try a dynamic background

I wasnt clear enough

I'm still watching one of sargon's vids, I think the background is a bit boring atm

I think I'll go against my initial statement, dynamic/gaming will help hold interest

The drive to continue the family line comes from my life and the family I come from, genes be damned if you will

if they have kids

and no your genes wont increase.

it gets halved every generation

Its certainly more important to me to raise a child and teach them the ways of the world, that is what is important to pass on, because that is indeed what forms the future

you dont have to have kids to do that. socretes didnt need to have kids for his teachings to be present even today

true

if you want kids. go ahead. its everybodys choice. but dont feel like you need to in order to pass on your legacy and teachings

It's hard to be the last one with the option, I have aging parents, a brother that married an infertile older woman, one dead brother, and I'm the last option, who's for the most part gone mgtow, although I don't consider myself one

yea but thats because you had the kid. if you have a kid you have that responsiblity. but not having a kid means you dont have to teach them. besides. there are plenty of orphans you can teach if you wish.

right, its against reason

you know you could just type out longer segments to avoid the spambot stopping your shit

@Rockets don't have a kid dude

its not a problem. im just giving you dem **pro tips**
