4·9 days agoThe only time I’ve watch these are breakdowns of debating tactics. There was also the one with Peterson where he showed he only did Mott and Bailey fallacies
The motte-and-bailey fallacy (named after the motte-and-bailey castle), also called the castle and courtyard, is a form of argument and an informal fallacy where an arguer conflates two positions that share similarities: one modest and easy to defend (the “motte”) and one much more controversial and harder to defend (the “bailey”).[1] The arguer advances the controversial position, but when challenged, insists that only the more modest position is being advanced.[2][3] Upon retreating to the motte, the arguer may claim that the bailey has not been refuted (because the critic refused to attack the motte)[1] or that the critic is unreasonable (by equating an attack on the bailey with an attack on the motte).[4]
When he was pushed to defend his statements, he’d deflect by arguing semantics and definitions of what words mean while he himself refused to really define anything. He just kept disagreeing with the opponents definitions.Then he tried make the debate about that.

Had to replace the starter on my moms Toyota sequoia. Idk if it’s a common design on V8, but I had to take the manifold off just to get access. Read every that I should replace the knock sensors while I’m in there. Didn’t. 2 months later, check engine light for one of the sensors. FML
The KGB considered french diplomats immune to blackmail due to how widespread cheating is. When they approached them, the diplomat would ask for a copy the tape so they could show off how hot their hookup was.
The nords and Russians have a long history of friendship. Here’s a representative friendly competition in sauna.
On 7 August 2010, two competitors were removed from the sauna and brought to the hospital in critical condition after six minutes of 110 °C (230 °F) heat, both suffering from serious burns and trauma. Russian finalist and former third-place finisher Vladimir Ladyzhensky, an amateur wrestler, was dragged out, suffering from convulsions, burns, and blisters.[5][8] Ladyzhensky died despite resuscitation. Finnish five-time champion Timo Kaukonen was, according to a spectator, able to leave the sauna with assistance.[9] He was reported to suffer from extreme burn injuries and his condition was described as critical but stable.[10][11] Kaukonen’s preparation included hydrating meticulously and growing his hair long enough to cover the tips of his ears, making them less likely to burn.[6] Just a few minutes before the finals, Kaukonen told the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang that the saunas used for the 2010 championship were a lot more extreme than the saunas used for previous competitions.[12] As Kaukonen and Ladyzhensky were disqualified for not leaving the sauna unaided, Ilkka Pöyhiä became the winner.[13]
The organizer, Ossi Arvela, said that there will probably never be another sauna competition. Two days later the City of Heinola noted that there are no official decisions about the future of the event, and the decisions would be made after the incident has been examined.[14] Arvela later reported that Finnish police had decided not to file charges in connection with the tragedy, but were continuing to investigate.[8] Kaukonen woke up from a medically induced coma six weeks after the event. His respiratory system was scorched, 70% of his skin was burnt and eventually his kidneys failed as well. In late October, Kaukonen was reported to be recovering quickly. He did not blame the organizers for his injuries.[15]
Ladyzhensky’s autopsy concluded that he had died of third-degree burns. His death was aided by his use of strong painkillers and local anesthetic grease on his skin, which was against the rules. Kaukonen was competing according to the rules.[16]
On April 20, 2011, the City of Heinola announced that they would no longer organize the event, noting that “If the city was to organize the World Sauna Championships in the future, the original playful and joyous characteristics of the event should be reintroduced. No ways to achieve this have been found.”[17]

The inigo montoya style:
Step 1: Give a polite greeting.
Step 2: State your name.
Step 3: Establish a personal connection.
Step 4: Manage expectations of the relationship.
“Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”
You should make it just something you do at a certain time. I needed to wake up, drink half a liter of water and be out the door before i had time to think of excuses. After a while it becomes automatic.
Pfft, I don’t stop raising my strokes until I start floating and start releasing emissions.
