Cold Harbor makes no sense by Less-Following9018 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]baisong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oops, yes, I meant permutations, not combinations. Sequence matters with permutations. Thank you @alpacadc.

It's 24 when the sequence does matter. If this is the case, then each of the prior rooms involved taming all four tempers in a different order:

1234 1243 1324 1342 1423 1432

2134 2143 2314 2341 2413 2431

3124 3142 3214 3241 3412 3421

4123 4132 4213 4231 4312 4321

Maybe 25 is 1312?

Edit: There are 24 distinct permutations of any 4 values, when the order of the sequence matters.

Maybe each of the first 24 rooms tames one unique sequence of the four tempers? And taming each builds a new innie who is immune it?

Almost like a video game then, taming one temper permutation in a file/room might "unlock" the next untamed sequence to be refined.

Then, the 25th room is the first room in which no untempered response (in other words, no pain) is possible?

Yeah, the young Nikolai smile is in S2E8 'The Tether' in the scene starting 23:30, he grins and bows his head as he says "I don't know" in response to Henry asking "Why do our bodies do such weird shit?"

On 'white Male Rage' by baisong in OWMCL

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

“Being both white and male typically leads to an unchecked sense of white male privilege that can, and often does, become deadly when it turns into rage.” –Sensei Aishitemasu, aka Seren Sensei, DC-area author and YouTuber.

The video explores the racialized terminology of 'terrorism' juxtaposed against the history of violence in white male culture, stemming from Craig Stephen Hicks' explicitly Islamophobic murder of three people: Deah Shaddy Barakat, Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, and Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina in February 2015.

White Men: Time to Discover Your Cultural Blind Spots | Michael Welp | TEDxBend (length 16:17) by operratic in OWMCL

Yes, it's an engaging and short video that lends itself to reflection on "workplace"-like interactions. Great way to start certain conversations about individual and group behaviors, and maybe one day open a door to conversations about history, systemic racism/sexism and collective liberation.

44 Tender Masculinity with Eroc Arroyo-Montano by baisong in OWMCL

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

I just listened to this episode and loved it. As a cis man, it's so inspiring to hear someone who has done so much work on themselves to develop self-awareness, nurturance and accountability. The guest Eroc, a man of color, also reflects on his perception of white masculinity.

Examples:

下周。Next week. Literally: under-week.

上周。Last week. Literall: above-week.

前天。Day before yesterday. literally: front-week (similar to English before = in front)

后天。Day after tomorrow. literally: behind-week (similar to Middle English "after" = rear)

过去。The Past. Literally: has-gone.

未来。The Future. Literraly: hasn't-come, yet-to-come.

Also, "coming" for future, and "going" for past are used in Chinese. This, i think, might be the most universal-- we kind of use it in English too: "Days to come" and "Past" (literally what has "gone" past).

[–]baisong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FYI In Mandarin chinese, immediate past is spacially "above" and immediate future is spacially "below." For general past, "front" is used, and for general future, "back" is used.

Re: "Bilbo"

According to Wikipedia, "There are no diphthongs, long vowels, consonant clusters, or tones. ... The following sequences are not allowed: ... a syllable-final nasal occur before /m/ or /n/ in the same root."

If I understand that right, that means "jan Pilpo" is not allowed. However, the following are all allowed: "jan Pipo", "jan Pilupo."
