>Philip K. Dick had sex with teenage runaways

Is this true? I need to confirm this claim, because it sounds extremely outlandish.

i dunno, but why would it be outlandish? the guy was a druggie living in san fancisco during the hippie years, "sex with teenage runaways" must have accounted for about 75% of all sex being had in the area. dumbass jailbait was hitchhiking to haight-ashbury from all over the country to check out the hippie lifestyle and all it took was accepting a pill from someone, which of course she accepts it because that's the whole point of the exercise, and the next thing she knows she's being gangbanbed on a mattress in some basement for 12 hours straight by a rotation of local freaks and negroes. this is not outlandish, this was a daily occurrence in 60s california, and if it isn't obvious from the way i'm describing it let me make clear that if i lived there at the time there would have been my cum oozing out of stretched-out schoolgirl snatch together with everybody else's. you couldn't even get aids!

It truly feels unreal doesn't it. Hunter Thompson best put it : «My central memory of that time seems to hang on one or five or maybe forty nights—or very early mornings—when I left the
Fillmore half-crazy and, instead of going home, aimed the big 650 Lightning across the Bay Bridge at a hundred miles an hour wearing
L. L. Bean shorts and a Butte sheepherder’s jacket … booming through the Treasure Island tunnel at the lights of Oakland and
Berkeley and Richmond, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the toll-gate, too twisted to
find neutral while I fumbled for change) … but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place
where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that.…

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La
Honda.… You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we
were winning.…

And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense;
we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the
momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave.…

So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can
almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.»
It was a flickering lighthouse beam, a zeitgeist which erupted out of the ether and had to come crashing down as swiftly as it emerged ; a folly which will barely even seem real to people a few centuries in the future. They will read stories about what happened on the western edge of civilization between 1966 and 1970, and wonder if it even really occurred in the first place. A dream, a collective hallucination, a mirage.

Probably, but I don’t know if he’d brag about it? (“Statutory rape” and all that). I used to be obsessed with Dick and read a lot of interviews of his plus a short biography of him (by Lawrence Sutin I think), besides many of his novels, of course. I think there’s an account of some time of him being smitten with a dark-haired 17 year old girl similar to a character described in Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said, but I think he claimed the relationship was Platonic and also him trying to keep her out of trouble/away from drugs and bad people. This may’ve been confabulated in my head.

Anyway, I wouldn’t be surprised, PKD was himself somewhat of a womanizer, surprisingly, considering all the wives he went through, plus/or women’s standards just weren’t as insane then and an interesting guy like PKD could score a lot.

I've heard in a /lit/ thread about him, but I can't seem to find it. Nor did they post any source where you could read more about what he did during that time. But yeah considering he lived a very druggie lifestyle, he probably did some sort of banging with teenagers. Again don't quote me or this thread. I could be entirely wrong.

I know two boomers that 'identify' with the hippy movement.
The first I heavily doubt is a real hippy. He's a pathetic guy that worships sex, only ever experimented with marijuana, thinks all other drugs are terrible and addictive, has 5 failed marriages and gets yelled at by his 6th wife every day, neglects his children, is an avid CNN watcher that yells at the TV whenever Trump comes up, and is just a weird, pathetic, insecure and gross person.
Second boomer is pretty chill actually. He is divorced from 1 marriage, takes care of his children, plays guitar alone all day and I used to talk to him about experimenting with LSD, shrooms, DMT, ecstacy and so on.

IDK about leftists, but I grew up in northern CA and I've been around hippies from that generation. They've always struck me as hard to pin down in terms of ideology. On the one hand they're down with globalism, universalism, etc. on the other hand they carry around a revolver on their property ready to kill you if you trespass. Weed, meth, and sex seems to be what they really care about.

Update: I wrote this first post, and I now believe what I partially confabulated it/mixed at least two things up in my head, one being the account in VALIS of the nice 18-year-old pot dealer named Stephanie whom Horselover Fat/Phil Dick strikes up a friendship with (no sex mentioned though but he finds her pretty) (this is brought up because VALIS is semi-autobiographical with parts working as a roman a clef, and interestingly enough I’m just now rereading it and got to that part), as well as an account of his in an interview or article mentioning crazy synchronicities in his life, one being of him meeting a young pretty girl just like the one in Flow My Tears (down to first name and other events/details in her life) but only meeting her AFTER he had written it.

>>23333817 puts it a little bit crudely but he seems to have the right idea. PKD definitely lived this hippie/countercultural/drug-involved lifestyle at this time, especially in hubs like around California and the Bay Area, so it’s not completely unlikely he banged some 18 year olds, but considering his paranoia about law-enforcement (perhaps justified) and his conscience, I doubt (or hope not?) he committed statutory.

A more fun and enlightening convo, though, then this paparazzi-like prying into and gossiping about his sex life, would be about PKD’s works himself, his beliefs, or even all the crazy synchronicities and reputed paranormal/supernatural phenomena he claims to have experienced (some even long before the famous ‘73/VALIS-inspiration experiences, like I think an account in Sutin’s biography of both him and one of his early wives seeing a ghostlike figure in their room in the middle of the night, then PKD later I think believing it was a projection of his own future self coming back to say hello).

They got all institutional power. They got the White House when they were Millennials age or younger and Congress shortly after and have had super majority control of all of government for 30 years now. There is barely anyone in Congress under 50, although it's slightly better than 2019 when there was virtually no one. But when Boomers were in their 30s and 40s they were the majority.

So where do you think the $35 trillion in debt came from and the $80 trillion in retirement liabilities? Why do you think Boomers get free healthcare and UBI (almost twice what Yang was talking about)? The current cost of transfer payments is $38,800 per year per Boomer; they retired after slashing their taxes during their peak earning years leaving $254,000 in debt per worker. Bank of America estimated that the government essentially transferred around $75 trillion in wealth to the Boomers.

The got power, took everything, decided their kids and grandkids could fix it, and still rule today. Life was one giant party ride. They had sex earlier than any generation before or since, has more partners than any generation before or since, did more drugs, drank more, committed WAY more violent crime, etc. This is also the generation that gave us the "Golden Age of Serial Killers." Then they got mass migration to inflate their home values, turning $70,000 starter homes into $800,000 assets to retire on, and because they demand low wages so they consume more. Any investment in the future, climate change, schools, etc. is knee capped because giving Boomers free shit comes first. The US spends over twice as much per Boomer (old people who will never work again) then it does on children (the future). Children are the most likely group to live in poverty, Boomers by far and away the least.

Oh, and we're having another Als versus Heimers election in November, despite both candidates showing clear signs of impairment.

Bernie, leader of the progressives, is over 80. Trump, God Emperor of the right, is old as fuck and obese, which will make him circle the drain even quicker. McConnell? Over 80 and stroking out on live TV. Pelosi? Old as fuck. Fienstein died but Grassley is going to be headed towards 100 in office.

The Biden cabinet is a bit better than Trump's, but both average around retirement age. For most of human history 30-50 was considered the prime of human life. Now with Boomers, everyone is too young to lead until they are almost 70, despite decline hitting most people somewhat obviously around 65.

in addition to what everyone else said, it shouldn't be understated how many hippies and newagers ended up in silicon valley and how much the early internet was a new iteration of that "shared consciousness" hippie fantasy that psychodelic drugs failed to provide. the language of early 90s tech hype was extremely influenced by this stuff and some hippie gurus like timothy leary smoothly transitioned to writing romanticized visions of "the hacker ethos" and "cyberspace revolution" for magazines like wired

She's the least influential VP in decades and apparently this is partially because Biden and the senior leaders in both parties think of her as just a kid. I mean, she's only 59, you can't expect her to be doing serious things. She's not in the prime of life like Trump, 77, Biden, 81, McConnell, McConnell 81, Pelosi, Pelosi, 84, Bernie 81, or Grassley 90. We need seasoned leaders, not youngsters who will only be 64 by the end of their terms. Experienced leaders like Putin (71) and Xi (70) or Abbas (88). She can't be taken seriously by our allies like the presidents of Ireland or Italy (both 82) either. This is how society is supposed to work, gerontocracy is an ideal. I mean, otherwise these youngsters will be freaking out trying to fix stuff like ocean acidification which won't even be an issue until 2042 lol. Who will be alive then?
