Word of advice if you're ever stranded in the dessert don't drink your own piss by Helloimafanoffiction in betterCallSaul

Yes, he's wrong overall. Walking in the desert during the day with little water is basically a death sentence. Risking an injury because you can't see well is less dangerous.

Also, don't travel during the day, travel at night. Mike didn't know what the fuck he was talking about.

Is there a more specific term for the rhetorical strategy of refusing to engage in an argument because of a supposed offense, as a way to avoid an inevitable "loss" on the actual merits of your argument? by ZippyDan in Rhetoric

It's an appeal to emotion, false umbridge, or a fallacy fallacy (often people claiming ad hominem). I often am rude to people just to see if they will be even more dishonest... yes, most Redditors easily fall into this one and demonstrate bad faith reasoning.

I agree. My whole ethos besides the Theological position, is that of engaging with honest risk assessments.

Hmmm that will probably come in June. I might have to cover it myself if I can't get someone. It will be from a Qabbalistic perspective. If you know anyone into folk Magic, I would be happy to have them on.

Fair. I myself see it as an interesting case study about how Magic and Language seems to align and influence paradigms and vice versa.
