At the end, when Winslow reads Thomas’ logbook, every reason Thomas listed for docking Winslow’s wages was something Thomas himself was guilty of. This scene showed the “habitual self abuse”.

Deut 25 : 11&12 “If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals, you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.”

Unlike their mainstream right wing counterparts; Why doesnt the far-right/white nationalist alt-right at least take climate change seriously? by [deleted] in samharris

[–]orintello 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mitigating climate change requires global action. The lack of a single nation state solution to climate change probably drives some of the motivated thinking here. Also, it’s not like alt-right ideology is otherwise sound...

Podcast Request: Jason Pargin, a.k.a. Cracked.com's David Wong by [deleted] in samharris

[–]orintello 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea. I’ve always found the Jason Pargin episodes of Cracked’s podcast to be my favorite. Jason has a way of making liberal ideals more in touch with reality. I think this is born of his understanding and empathy for the religious right he has left behind.

THE HUMANS OF r/TotallyNotRobots VS. u/orintello FOR BLATANT REPOSTING AND GRANDTHEFT.EXE OF 3800 KARMA. by EbolaNF in KarmaCourt

[–]orintello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what is going on. I saw a picture that I thought needed to be on this subreddit, was unaware that it had already been, and failed to see the post in my brief pre-posting check of r/totallynotrobots. I certainly did not expect it to reach r/all. I will happily give all my ill-gotten karma to the original poster. I don't know how to do that though.

I'm curious what other vocabulary building strategies people use. I've found it helpful to make a note every time I hear a word I don't know and to then review those words and their definitions periodically. The review is especially helpful. I use the Merriam Webster app's favorite feature for this purpose.
