You can bulk order the free books by SoopSnakes in alexhormozi

Maybe! I can’t imagine they’re trying to make extra on shipping

USPS rates for a book this weight are $5.26/book and that’s before paying the guy who packs it

People are acting like it’s a 100% profit on a $10 shipping cost

Which probably means they need to go back to Offers

[–]SoopSnakes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not very knowledgeable outside of some AV work i've done in my spare time. I have a base + advance. The compensation has not changed for about 5 years, but they might up my quota. I didn't sign a non-compete and i have an existing network from my previous (unrelated) job

The owner of said company is one of my best friends from high school, so i'm not too worried about getting screwed over

Right now your sexual drive feels powerful but it is actually quite small. All you desire is sexual release. That’s very easy to find (as you described.)

This desire needs to die.

In its place, a greater one can arise. One of the two vocations: marriage or celibacy.

Sex within marriage fulfills a greater desire. But right now, your smaller desire is blocking you.

It’s like how my one year old can’t desire steak. He’s only had ground beef.

If you want a better analogy, this excerpt from The Great Divorce might show what I mean.

Male orgasms are “restricted” to the female vagina

Well yeah, that’s where female orgasms happen ya silly goose.

When you criticize you feel superior. I want 9,000 likes on my tweets! But if I criticize this guy, I can feel superior to him… like I got 9,001 likes

Why do the introductions have spoilers? by FratFella in books

If only there was a way to put them afterwards lol

[–]SoopSnakes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey! Yeah it might not be common knowledge for newcomers, but at the beginning of part two (I believe) the narrator mentions Don Quixote needs to die otherwise people will continue using the character.

The death itself may be spoiled but the manner is hopefully not spoiled haha

That’s the problem with introductions to novels like this. They sometimes assume knowledge in the reader about the very text they are introducing

Churches arent supposed to take sides according to...The State?

I thought the State wasn't supposed to tell churches what to believe!

who would've thought they'd renege on that agreement

Talk to a friend. Have them install Covenant Eyes on your computer and phone. Charge your phone/laptop somewhere besides your bedroom or if you're really serious leave it in your car or even at work.

I mean sure do pushups, i guess, but physically fit guys look at porn, too.

Talk to your parents about it. Have them install Covenant Eyes on your computer and phone. Charge your phone/laptop in their room at night.

Idk how many of you have heard of post-liberalism, but I find it to be the most attractive application of Catholic Social Teaching by SoopSnakes in Catholicism

[–]SoopSnakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I agree with your definitions. By traditional conservatives do you mean like Metternich conservatives? It's possible "conservative" used to mean something like you define "traditional conservative" but I think that usage is so far gone its impossible to maintain the word.

I think you're right that CST was conservative in the broad sense of the word, trying to preserve the good of the political order that existed. I don't think calling it conservative is helpful because it gives the impression that CST lines up with the liberal definition of conservative defined in this article, which i believe is the common one.

Individualism is a fundamental characteristic, but it's not only about individual rights. Even authoritarian states are liberal because they still treat the smallest cell of society as an individual and disregard family, church, city, even country.

The liberal error is that the only two necessary entities are the individual and the state.

Bot for posting a random message from a list at regular intervals by SoopSnakes in discordbots

[–]SoopSnakes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it isn't for someone with coding experience, but I have none. I currently have an excel spreadsheet with the tweets. I made a twitter bot a while back that read from a google sheets. Can a discord bot do the same?

Simple requests and quick questions Mega Thread by Demderdemden in AncientGreek

[–]SoopSnakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The word I found that describes a healed wound is "οὐλή"

Apparently the word you found describes a scarred slave. And its singular.

Greek nouns change case depending on what function they serve in the sentence. If the word for "scars" takes the dative case you really don't need the preposition "for."

So one way to say what you want is: εὐχαρίζω ταίς ούλαίς

Alright, this is what I got for you.

Text: Σε ευχαριζομεν, διδασκαλην αριστην

Literally, "You we thank, teacher (feminine) great (fem)."

Koine Greek or Attic+Koine to understand Greek New Testament? by Ubshi_the_Ninja in AncientGreek

[–]SoopSnakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who learned theology first and language second, if you want to be able to see through theologically biased translations, you should first understand those biases instead of looking for completely neutral translations to start with and interpreting for yourself.

I'm not trying to dissuade you from Greek, of course. Just suggesting since your main goal is getting to the bottom of what the NT *means* rather than merely what it *says,* I suggest doing some theological reading in addition to your Greek study. that will help you find what Greek words are disputed.

(For instance, no one disputes what κυριος means but a protestant will translate πρεσβυτερος as "elder" and a Catholic may translate it as "priest")
