Pobre Leia

Carrie Fisher la actriz que interpretaba a Leia, murió en un vuelo a la prematura edad de 60 años (para un mujer eso es muy joven).

Con eso murió su personaje, que ya no va a ser lo mismo ahora que no lo interpreta ella, ahora eso, tal vez al menos sea mejor que la muerte de la actriz.


Y es que la vida de Leia estuvo llena de desgracias, de principio a fin.
La verdad desde que la conocimos tuvo el peor de los inicios, perdió su planeta, luego realmente su vida no mejora, tiene un trabajo muy ocupado, primero como princesa, luego como generala de la resistencia, luego como senadora y finalmente nuevamente como generala contra la primera orden.

Seamos optimistas y supongamos que le gustaba el trabajo por el mero gusto de trabajar. Dinero, poder, gloria, como todas esas cosas que hacen que los hombres se metan en trabajos que no les gustan (la verdad de esto el mejor ejemplo es Han Solo), son bueno, bastante irrelevantes para ella.

Ya en el inicio de la saga era princesa, y tenia de todo eso en suficiente abundancia para ahorrarse los entuertos.

Pero Leia ama trabajar y es una pesadilla para los economistas, ya que a diferencia del 90% (restando a todos los que se inspiraron en ella) de la humanidad, para ella el trabajo es un bien económico, Leia sufría los días feriados, y el gobierno podía darle trabajo en vez de bonos, la ciudadana perfecta.

Incluso si de manera muy optimista creemos ama trabajar, su vida sigue sin ser muy buena. Probablemente Han Solo nunca pagaba la cuenta, a lo mas se ponía con el halcón milenario.
Y eso sin contar que prefieria hacer absolutamente cualquier cosa antes de estar con ella. (si, viste la película sabes te digo la verdad), cualquier cosa.

Y para más remate su hermano desapareció, por muucho tiempo. El seguramente era demasiado sensible y ella aunque trataba no podía andar siempre consolándolo, recordemos que en general ella estaba mucho mas ocupada que el, y ademas al igual que el elegir pareja o el romanticismo, eso de consolar tampoco era lo suyo.

Lo único bueno es que tuvo un hijo, o lo hubiera sido, si este no hubiera matado a su padre y unido al lado oscuro, Igual hay que entenderla, con Han paseando por la galaxia, Leia en el fondo era una madre soltera, una que se lo pasaba trabajando. Tenia la pesada carga de ser padre y madre y como se nota que ni para madre a secas le alcanzó.

Eso si Leia nunca tuvo que ser rescatada, pero que bien le hubiera venido.
Pobre Leia.

Un regalo para Jurgen Klaric teoria sobre uso masivo redes sociales.

Jurgen Klaric es un experto en neuromarketing y dueño de BIA LAB tiene una mirriada de videos en youtube respecto de como ser mejor vendedor, administrador y mejor persona en general.


Más de alguno de esos videos me ha servido (por ejemplo el de la lectura de alto rendimiento), así que que mejor que regalarle una teoría que le podría servir (o a la humanidad a través de él)

Al grano
Conozco un par de historias, por ejemplo un compañero que llamaba a su mamá todos los días pasó a simplemente mandarle un whatsapp de vez en cuando.

Y esta ya es obvia yo al menos (probablemente tu también querido lector) has pasado por mandarle whatsapps a gente que podrías perfectamente llamar, y no cualquier mensaje, a veces incluso mensajes largos o conversaciones enteras que demoran mucho más en escribir que simplemente llamar a la otra persona.

¿Es esto in-eficiencia?

Spoiler: no, y tu querido lector serás el segundo (yo soy el primero (espero)) en saber por qué.

Estadísticamente, nada es imposible, ni siquiera el que justo en estos momentos caiga un meteorito cerca de tu casa muy cerca y que no te lastime o de que haya un nuevo diluvio. La probabilidad en tiempo real que eso ocurra debe tener como mínimo unos 10 ceros a la izquierda, pero existe.

Adonde voy, por cada humano (aplicable para algunos animales) que conoces, hay una probabilidad estadística de que sea un psicópata y te mate.  Ahora morir es para uno tan malo (a menos que uno sea una especie de yijahdista) que a pesar de que la probabilidad que eso ocurra es bajisima al ponderarla por la valoración de malo que le damos a morir, nos resulta que la utilidad esperada o des utilidad esperada no es tan baja y eso explicaría en primera instancia el recelo o ansiedad por conocer a otra persona.

Afortunadamente los humanos somos valientes y por eso existe la civilización, ahora tampoco tan valientes, si existiera una aplicación que nos diera una probabilidad de obtener una gran parte del componente utilitario eliminando prácticamente todo el riesgo, ¿no sería maravilloso?¿no pasarías de 10 o 15 amigos de la vida real a 1000 o 2000 amigos en facebook?


Así es estamos seguros tras la pantalla del computador, y parafraseando el trabajo de Klaric la seguridad es muy valorada por el cerebro. y así pues las redes sociales no dejan de crecer.

Espero señor Klaric, gracias por tomarse el tiempo de leerlo.

primer blog de ayuda de vida Trasformar debilidades en fortalezas

Disclaimer: Debo estar entre las personas menos indicadas para darte un consejo de vida.


Este el punto, yo leía "ser memorable" de la doctora Carmen Simon, en el libro decía que uno planifica el futuro de una forma similar a como uno recuerda el pasado.

En este contexto hay dos cosas que enfatizaré: La habilidad de contar historias y la habilidad de hacer cosas.

Creo ser bueno contando chistes, hasta logre que un salón de 50 personas se desternillara de la risa con uno, por alguna razón esa capacidad no se extiende a mi capacidad de contar relatos (al menos no de esos que me dejan bien).

Por ejemplo: ayer recorri el parque metropolitano, yo contaría la historia mas o menos así:

"Después de perderme, llegue al parque y subí por el sendero zorro vial (o vidal, algo parecido), camine harto, saque fotos, descanse en una banca y en una hora llegue donde la virgen, también saque fotos, también pasé por una iglesia, donde rece y saque fotos, luego usé el teleférico que me dejó en la tupahue, bajé por el lado del jardín japones y volví."

¿Notas querido lector lo poco emocionante que suena? Siendo honesto ahora podría añadirle detalles y todo, pero la verdad es que así es como contaría mi aventura si es que me la preguntaran.

Y eso que se complicó, yo de partida no esperaba perderme y planeaba llegar a la virgen en unos 25 minutos aprox, la bajada también fue mucho más larga de lo planeado y eso que usé el teleférico.

Mi plan era: Ir, recorrer el parque completo y volver, se veía simple en mi cabeza.

Ahora querido lector tal vez mis habilidades de explorador dejan mucho que desear, pero quiero que notes algo

YO Fui, hice el paseo......

Recordaras que te conté que yo cuento las historias tal cual las recuerdo, sencillas, sin añadidos, como si fueran un trámite y eso que he hecho un par de cosas memorables como salir en la tele y en un diario en USA, Tengo algo así como el síndrome de Harry Potter, para los demás suenan como grandes hazañas (o sonarían si fueran ellos y no yo quien cuenta la historia) y para mi para mi como algo cotidiano sin mucha gracia.

Puede incluso llegar a ser depresivo este síndrome, que cada uno de tus logros los recuerdes como si fueran trámites.......

Ahora mi síndrome de Harry Potter tiene un efecto secundario, como mis recuerdos del pasado afectan mi planificación futura, todos mis objetivos y metas al menos al inicio parecen meros trámites, es decir soy en extremo optimista en cuento a mis posibilidades a la hora de planificar., lo que hace que comience mas cosas. (y algunas las termino como recorrer el parque metropolitano)

De hecho así nació este blog, hubo un momento en el que escribir este blog se veía muy fácil, de hecho hubo un momento en el que escribir esta entrada se veía igual de fácil.

Esta entrada es un ejemplo, de como una debilidad puede transformarse en una fortaleza, si al igual que yo no te sale contar una gran historia en la que quedes como un héroe, anímate, tiene su lado bueno.

Si eres muy bueno contando historias espero que tu también encuentres tus propios ejemplos de como convertir tus debilidades en fortalezas

Respecto de Trump, Mexico si va a pagar por el muro.

Este blog está escrito en español por una razón, los norteamericanos ya saben que Trump hará que México pague por el muro, sería redundante que yo que escribiera el blog en su idioma.
Los que aún no lo sabemos somos los latinoamericanos, bueno una parte de ellos; chilenos, argentinos, colombianos y la verdad cualquier país que no sea México tenemos nuestras dudas, lo importante es que los aludidos ya se están haciendo la idea del muro.

México ya comenzó dando señales de su disposición a colaborar, comenzó con la reunión entre Peña Nieto y Trump, reunión que además fue decisiva para el repunte del candidato en las encuestas.
Luego ni siquiera cuestionó la existencia misma del muro, y ahora recientemente el banco central mexicano ya está empezando a actuar subiendo las tasas de interés para contener la depreciación del peso mexicano y a eso súmenle que Peña Nieto se quiere juntar de nuevo con Trump.

Para México es como si el muro ya existiera,

Y aquí es donde entramos en suelo sensible querido lector, la verdad es que México no pagará por el muro por que USA lo extorsione (tal vez lo haga pero solo será un factor más) o porque USA lo invada (tal vez lo haga pero de nuevo solo será un factor más), México pagará el muro porque tienen grabadas en sus mentes la sumisión a USA.

Es un mal arraigado en toda latino américa y es una constante en nuestra historia.

El país europeo o anglosajón llega, hace y se lleva lo que quiere y luego se va, dejando el lugar en cuestión en la miseria tanto económica como social.  

Para graficarlo; es como si a la misma mujer la violaran una y otra y otra vez, en efecto si latino- américa fuera una mujer ya llevaría como mínimo unas 10 violaciones (países por separado ya se acercan a ese número).

Un solo ejemplo, acorde a mi profesor de historia Ítalo Chifelle (el apellido no lo recuerdo bien), el general inglés que luchó contra Argentina en las guerra de las Malvinas escribió una memoria del tema mucho antes de la guerra en la que la conclusión era que si Argentina deseaba recuperar las Malvinas, Inglaterra no tenía ninguna posibilidad de victoria, Esto se debía a que Argentina tenía portaaviones y bases militares , en resumen, Argentina tenía en la zona una logística que debido a la distancia Inglaterra no podía igualar.

Y a pesar de todo Quien ganó la guerra?
Inglaterra
Argentina no usó sus portaaviones, no desplegó su poder a plena capacidad y prácticamente entregó las Malvinas en cuanto Margaret Thatcher anunció que enviaría la flota inglesa a recuperarlas.
En otras palabras Argentina estaba intimidada al igual que lo está México ahora, la sumisión esta grabada con fuego.

Eso sí hay que ser justos con México, tienen a Usa al lado, y USA tiene la capacidad de destruir la economía mexicana por medio de un embargo comercial y las ciudades mexicanas por medio de un bombardeo si es que se le antojara hacerlo.

En cualquier caso hay que agradecerle a Trump, latino américa está lentamente pasando de una miriada de países que se miraban con recelo por rencillas históricas insignificantes, a un continente que comparte cierta identidad en común.  Y a pesar que hay demasiado que hacer para poder  plantarse frente al mundo con dignidad (la historia le demostró a Venezuela que auto destruir tu propia economía y gritar a los 4 vientos  que USA es malo no es una forma de ganar respeto internacional), como actualizar nuestro poder bélico, nuestra infraestructura, nuestra industria y nuestro sistema educativo yo soy optimista respecto del futuro.

Es USA el que quiere construir un muro para protegerse de nosotros, no nosotros de ellos- En eso latino américa le esta ganando a USA.

The Trump card

Even when the polls, the media, Hollywood, Silicon Valley and Wall Street are against him, Donald Trump still has a chance of winning.

Of course I endorse Hillary Clinton for president, after I gave her the third debate (the only she actually won) in a silver plate it would be just stupid to endorse Trump.

Even without my endorsement he can win, and the media is a good part of his chances.

I in previous post have explain you how deplorable is white birth rate in USA, and while Hillary is probably the best option for economy (of course we only understand economy as a high S&P 500 index), not even her most candid and passionate supporter (Does she actually has any passionate supporter?), not even CNN or the New York Times can argue that Hillary´s policies are bad for white birth rate, and a low birth rate it means that keeping all constant white ire more likely to disappear in a certain period of time.

Let’s review Hillary´s more likely policies and the impact on birth rate.

      

     1)      Unlimited support for Planned Parenthood: Planned Parenthood makes many things, but the most important is the distribution of birth control and the practice of abortions. The point is that from all races whites (especially in USA) are addicts to birth control. Why? Because they want to get some day rich while traveling the world and don´t want a child to ruin that. They also practice abortion, so even if somehow a girl get to get pregnant, she can still kill the child and save herself of an unwanted motherhood. Combine available birth control with an efficient abortion system and the chance of a child born by accident is close to zero. Whites are not only addicts of birth control, if white privilege means something is that they have more facilities to use the Planned Parenthood abortion network.

Yes, exactly, they have the white privilege of being less.

      2)      Feminism: Hillary is a feminist, is one of the very little thing in which she has been consistent her entire life. After saying that, I have to say this point is a bit conflictive, I don´t know exactly why but somehow there is relationship between feminism and gender crossing. Gender crossing means girls acting like guys and guys like girls. The thing is that before gender crossing, the thing somehow works, masculine man get married with feminine woman, it was unidirectional. Now a feminine man, maybe will like a masculine woman, but also may like an even more feminine woman, the same with a masculine woman who can like a feminine man, but also can look for a man even more masculine than her. 

      

      Without any statics you can look how the system for getting couple is more complex now, and complexity reduce the chances of success because you have to think more and act less.

The point is that feminism is actually somehow an elite movement, you have to be educated to understand it and, the more educated you are, the more impact cause in your life. And how wealth and education are quite a racial thing in USA now, yes. Another strike for white privilege. Whites have the privilege of having feminism and a more complicate relationship model than everyone else. Which of course also have a negative impact in white birth rate.

     3)      Immigrants: Hillary wants to bring more immigrants, this can be for humanitarian reasons or just because she think diversity is a good thing. The point is, this also hurts whites, sharing the cake with more people reduce the chance of whites of actually getting rich (and you know if they don’t get rich it’s quite hard they think in parenthood), but also of course some of the immigrants will reproduce and build they families, some of them with whites. Whites have the problem that if they have a child with another person of any other race, the kid will look more like the whatever other race they choose to procreate.

The NAZI actually framed this as whites being the “pure race”, but actually is more like the race that can only procreate with itself, which is generally bad for the preservation of that race.

In last, it’s not a mystery that US demography is year after year less and less white, the reason is simple, the immigrant reproduce faster than whites (perhaps because they just procreate without waiting to be rich).

In last, voting Hillary is like a suicide for whites. Many black and Latin countries have chosen white presidents, even if they were terrible and monopolize all the resources for a small minority, they actually never endanger the preservation of whatever race they take in charge. Sudafrica is diverse but mostly a black country, and that didn´t change even during apartheid. Hillary policies will probably be a one more step to white extinction.

I will no argue if white surviving is good for world, you can say whites make wars, or even that if climate change is actually true, that they consume so much that a world with less whites is mandatory to sustainability. What I will argue is that their most basic instincts, favor a Trump victory.

Trump in that point has make everything right, he is making clear with policies like less abortion or deporting immigrants or create more manufacture jobs, he will create a safe environment to white reproduction, and that probably justify his high numbers in polls (better than Romney and Mc Cain).

Will whites commit suicide? Actually is not impossible, Clinton campaign and media create an environment in which Trump voters can face  physical and psychological damage if they manifest they support to him, recreating quite successfully the conditions for that individual or even collective suicide can happen.

Let see, but Trump has his triumph card and that maybe will make him president. 

Trump vs. Clinton debate. Maybe I just help to choose the president of the United States

I actually didn´t see the whole debate. But a fair part of it, I have to say it

Hillary Clinton won, won big, maybe even big enough to break the famous glass ceiling.

If you read the previous entry of this blog, you will see how I actually give advice to both candidates previous to debate. Hillary followed it so precisely like if my blog were read not by one of her 800 staffers but by Hillary Clinton herself.

Do you dear reader think I’m joking? Let’s see this by points.

Moderators surprisingly fair: In the previous debates you can actually feel they were somehow a bit in Clinton´s camp, they interrupt more Trump, ask more aggressive questions to Trump, etc. Now they were well fair, I spend so much time, talking about the realities of the feelings of a rigged election, and at least in the mechanics of the debate we don´t see a good case here for Trump

Boring Hillary: Hillary doesn´t limit herself to just being presidential, she was boring just as I tell her, so boring that actually Trump usual aggressiveness goes against him by attacking someone who wasn´t looking for a fight. Also being boring help her body language keeping her relaxed in the debate, regaining the advantage of looking more comfortable with the experience of debating than Trump.

More acknowledgeable Hillary: I and only I am the only in whole media and independent media who say Hillary´s greatest weakness was that we actually don´t know too much about her. Well she respond not only telling us her whole biography in the debate (I bet any scholar in USA expect to its test get a question about Hillary), she actually talk about policy more than ever before, finally explaining us (I guess) her tax plan and how its go to work, and even took time to defend the Clinton Foundation, what more I can say. Trump focus like in second debate of making clear his positions about the issues, reinforcing his strategy, but the advantage he had in this topics from second debate was drastically cut off.

Let´s make this clear, Trump actually defend himself quite well, especially about the tapes, somehow defend his strongholds in immigration and foreign policy and actually present quite well the whole thing of the WikiLeaks and the Hillary´s taking money from foreign power. But Hillary has some defenses prepared to this like for example Bernie Sanders it’s actually her supporter. In fact his biggest problem was he doesn´t get a KO punch on Hillary, while she looked more presidential and honestly sounds lots better than him.

Is the election over? Who knows, the core supporters of both still remain quite active, actually Trump defense on the tapes thing can actually help his presidential options, he know what he is selling, and stick religiously to that. Even losing the debate he can still win, like losing the battle but winning the war. After all Hillary has doing quite well in the polls after second debate which she lost by a far margin.

My main duty as blogger and human it’s to check if the glass ceiling actually it’s broke, or if it’s actually tougher than we expected like a wood or a metal ceiling.

Trump vs Clinton third debate. ADVICE FOR TRUMP AND CLINTON

Trump vs. Clinton third debate. ADVICE FOR TRUMP AND CLINTON

We are now in the very finals of the presidential race, an unshackled Trump fight for survive (in and after against well, Hillary Clinton, irony is that even being her the most famous woman in history of politics (even more than Cleopatra or Josephine), we actually doesn´t know too much about her, her friends, her beliefs or her policies. We cannot even acknowledge who are actually her friends or how good or bad are her relationships in the Democratic Party (With Trump all that it’s quite obvious)

But now it’s time to honor my word and maybe prevent Miss Clinton from the following ravaging that would other case be a sure thing.

Somehow my advice from my previous entry to Hillary. Looks like it reached her, if you dear reader think about it its actually quite likeable, she has over 800 staffers what more will they do rather than check oncoming writing pieces like mine?. I tell her about just focus on personal attacks completely avoiding policy talk. She has done exactly that and its resulting quite well, she keeps a decent leading margin over Trump.

But now she has troubles.

You see, she lost, she lost badly the second debate, that means, that even the most competent and prepared woman in mankind history, with all MSM in her side, with the moderators in her side (What the hell was doing Martha refuting Trump any case), with his opponent being abandoned by his “allies” in the republican party, and facing the hardest hit against his campaign yet just fail to beat the big guy of this generation. And that tear readers it’s big.

The glass ceiling will just break if Hillary gets a convincing victory, instead she gets a convincing defeat, and even if it’s actually Trump who must defend the still inviolable gates of male supremacy, and Hillary who is in the offense, her defeat has consequences.

1)    She is not worthy: After her defeat all the “super male”, “deplorable” Trump base, get the confirmation of their beliefs. In their minds the ultimate battle of sexes just happened and the man again win. They will just keep politically mobilized after election (breaking one of the oldest conservative traditions), some of them even consider not recognize Hillary´s victory,(if it happens)

The deplorable are one thing, but actually its slowly getting deep in American minds that if you take all ideas and the personality out Trump it’s just the better man for the job. And that perhaps the media shows too much enthusiasm for a candidate who prove is a bit unqualified for the job, which actually encourage the successful rumor that election can be rigged.

      2)    Election rigged:  That a candidate for presidency says that election can be stolen from him, it’s one of the only things that should actually horror MSM, after all a man can say what he want and brag all about he want about his success or behavior with woman, but unless he gets actually sued.  Attacking the fairness of your own political system its really huge, the normal response here it would have been terror from media just combined with a willing determination to show a consistent and irrefutable number of proofs that show how fair the system actually is.  The extremely polite response from media to this allegations, it feels like they actually want to avoid talking about the fairness of the election. Even from Hillary´s campaign prefer to focus on the tapes.

The result of this is that a decent number of Americans (WikiLeaks emails helps too) believe the election it’s rigged, all of these help to build ground for Trump to avoid recognizing Hillary´s victory (if it happens)

I will repeat my prediction for debate one (which one was quite accurate) Hillary will go for the killing. She doesn’t need it, she just need to keep presidential, have the most boring possible debate and even using the woman card to force Trump to soft himself up to win the election, avoiding defeat it would be a huge victory for Hillary Clinton.

But she will not do that, she will go for the kill, she doesn´t need it, and she wants it.

Honestly the pre debate doesn´t look good for MRS Clinton.

     1)    War with RUSSIA: I know, perhaps the most stupid rumor ever, but Russia has come so much from Mrs. Clinton campaign counting also the Obama cyber-attack or cyber war on Russia, that now it’s like if we don´t vote for Donald Trump we will have the third world war with Russia just for avenging Mrs. Clinton from an offense which she can’t actually proof anyway its fault of Russia (WikiLeaks). Don´t misunderstand me I don´t know if America can beat Russia in a world war, or if war its good or not, but the problem her it’s that America cannot actually go to war with Russia, both have nuclear power, so inevitably, after all the possible trash talk from democrats to Putin, they will have to back from their words and came back with the tail between their legs. So this has actually two sides, those who really fear war now will have to vote Trump despite their own ideological conviction (Trump actually made moves quickly, trying to guarantee good relationships with Russia), and those who just want to avoid another humiliation for their country (After Ukraine and Syria) will also have to vote for the guy who just put himself (and not his whole country) in trouble while talking,

     2)  Election being rigged: I know I’m repeating myself, but it’s important to Mrs. Clinton that moderators keep their mouth shut. The old tactic of inviting one conservative to a panel with 10 liberals while all of the m(including moderator) just bury the guy with their overwhelming numbers, won´t work neither on Trump on the alt right itself. Any favorability to Clinton in the debate would just made more the case for Trump and after all, is it anything more American than rebellion against a perceived unfair system?

Advice for Clinton debate

     1)  Be boring: That nothing important happen in the 90 minutes means she gets the presidency, yeah you will lost the chance of break the glass ceiling, but you can leave the mission to the next generation and just limit yourself to take the price.

     2)    Keep racial: In first debate was evident Trump cannot go on offense on racial issues, he just spend time giving explanation trying to convince the audience he is not racist. The more time passes, more chances she has of winning the election .

     3)    Talk policy: I know, I talk to just focus on personal attacks, it worked, now listen me again, you got the reputation of being the most qualified person ever for the job, but it’s time to actually prove that. Being schooled by Trump in policy it’s awful for you.  And just keeping in boring statics also helps you to make more time pass.

I consider myself a democratic man, so here it’s also advice for Trump.

Advice for Trump debate.

     1)    Go for the killing: For some reason being presidential sucks for you, every time you act presidential you just drop in the polls. The entire world its waiting for Trump show. We would gladly appreciate if you delivered.

     2)    Expose Hillary’s void: Donald has a huge advantage for the debate. We know him, we know he likes grab woman by the pussy (yeah, we actually didn´t need to know that), he is going to build a wall, make Mexico pay for it, ban Muslims, compete with China (or GGHINAA?), get along well with Russia, and focus more in American economy and takes and exploit ISIS oil. We don´t know anything about Hillary, except she is a feminist, and have fought all her life to guarantee woman rights and that she will exert some retaliation on Putin, retaliation who comes from vigorous screaming to even a nuclear war. We don´t actually know about her tax policy (we know she somehow plans to raise taxes but we don´t know who actually are going to pay those taxes, her donors? the middle class?), or about her foreign policy, how compromised is she actually on fighting ISIS? How many money has she taken from Saudi Arabia? What plans has she for South America?

Usually have a deep, spacious void in the policy it’s good for a candidate, because every voter can fill the void with their own fantasies and hopes, but people in general hates uncertainty. So you can just bring some innovation to the quite old field of politics practices and denounce Hillary´s void,    making the case that no voter actually knows her. (The “two face” email helps for building the case)They really know you, so they probably will vote towards you if the other person is a complete strange,
