Well done. Congratulations to Mike.

Quote:

Mike and Shauna met in 2011, at a bar in Santa Monica. “He was pretty aggressive,” Shauna told me. “He grabbed my arm, pulled me into him, and said, ‘You fit nicely.’ ”

“It sounds creepy, but it looked less creepy in context,” Mike said.

“It worked,” Shauna said. “We were making out, like, five minutes later.”

Mike said that, when they started dating, “I didn’t take it seriously. But she just refused to go away, and now—”

“I’m married and pregnant!” Shauna said, smiling.

“And my life is over,” Mike said, half-smiling.

“We’re having a girl!” Shauna said. “I think it’ll be good for him, soften him up a bit.”

“I’ll be nice to her, as long as she’s not a basic bitch,” Mike said.

Wow, he made it into the New Yorker. That's actually quite the achievement. The fey, effete elitists up in the Northeast will be politely rolling their eyes.

caveman game in action.

Mike said he didn't want to have a Wikipedia bio. However, with articles like the New Yorker piece he probably can no longer avoid it. Since Wikipedia has been overrun by SJWs, his bio will probably be full "criticism" and "controversy." I guess all publicity is good publicity.

That's why you drive people away from Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is done.

Long live Infogalactic!

Mike as entry on wiki. If anyone wants to know about Mike, just use Infogalactic Planetary Core. They clean up his bio to be object as possible.

There was a ton of snark and putdowns in that New Yorker article. I'm curious on what the writer looks like. So here he is.



The shrimp on the left. He was obsessed with Mike's chest.

[rotekz]

^^^ I'm guessing that is his wife on the right then?

Just profiled in The Observer as well. "Exclusive Interview: How This Right-Wing ‘Troll’ Reaches 100M People a Month" by Ryan Holiday
http://observer.com/2016/10/exclusive-in...le-a-month

Mike talks about writing, how the mainstream media outlets are fungible, anti-fragility, bullies and shaming, hoaxes and, of course, Twitter.

Quote:

How does a self-published author of self-improvement books and former lawyer build a Twitter audience that can do as many as a 100 million impressions in a month? How does someone with no direct affiliation to any political party create a hashtag that was used by the Republican nominee for president and the Green Party nominee? Why did the New Yorker decide to profile him and why does their headline call him a “Troll for Trump?” Is he actually a troll or has he just figured out the media better than many ‘professionals’ and is now using it for his own agenda?

Quote:

MIKE: When people come to my Twitter or read my blog, they see a direct challenge to the dominant narrative. I currently have a near-monopoly on “anti-media.”

Publisher: Jared Kushner (Ivanka's husband)

He is one of Trumps advisors as well.

Anyone else listening to MAGA MINDSET? Cernovich has released the whole thing free on YouTube, with Stefan Molyneux reading it. Four hours. (This is not just the intro, which was previously released on YouTube.)

You've got to admire Stefan's stamina.

I'm at the 3-hour mark (out of 4). Stefan's energy level is amazing here. If he took a break, I didn't notice. I'm reminded that his training is an actor. It shows. This looks easy for him. If you usually find Stefan's exaggerated cadence off-putting, you won't here. It works perfectly with this material.

I just watched the first hour. Stefan is awesome definitely brings an added energy to it.

Looking to download it and listen to it - anyone got a recommendation for a youtube to mp3 site or tool that'll process something that size?

[Paracelsus]

Never mind, VidtoMP3.com seems to be doing the job.

Mike should be given an award for his work over the last year. With his hashtags and other works he definitely influenced this election by at least a percentage point or two.

I motion we try to organize something through Roosh and crowd-fund it through forum member donations. Like a plaque or a trophy or something and maybe Roosh could take him out to dinner or something and present it.

Any supporters?

[Thersites]

I'm game, but usually broke to give money. Instead of plaque, we can get him a nice wallet:

These sites go down periodically.

When it's running, this is the best one I've found:

This one is ok, but has sound level problems sometimes:

Tip reminder: in YouTube there's a setting to play the video at 1.25, 1.50, and 2 times recorded speed.

I used it to get through this video in two hours.

Congratulations Mike!

I hope that this little gorilla will do some serious ass kicking as well

I pity the poor schmucks that will attempt to date Mike's daughter when she's a teenager.
He'll be in & out of their minds Inception style.
