In this episode, we continue following the latest chapters of Andor Season 2, focusing on character development, moral complexities, and the intricate relationships between characters like Syril, Dedra, and Saw Gerrera. We get into the themes of rebellion, sacrifice, and the personal struggles faced by the characters, particularly Bix's descent into addiction and the implications of their choices in the broader context of the rebellion, Cassian's journey, the Empire's manipulative strategies, and Luthen's duality.  

Welcome to episode #979 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Dr. Kurt Gray is a social psychologist whose work couldn't be more relevant to our times. As a professor at UNC Chapel Hill, director of the Deepest Beliefs Lab and the Center for the Science of Moral Understanding, and the author of the new book Outraged - Why We Fight About Morality and Politics and How to Find Common Ground, he's helping reshape how we understand conflict in a divided world. In this conversation, Kurt unpacked why it's not that we're wired differently across political lines - it's that we perceive harm differently. He introduces ideas like the “exhausted majority,” the dangers of elite-driven outrage, and the evolutionary roots of our hypersensitivity to perceived threats. We also explore the surprising role of personal narratives in reducing division, the generational shift in how people approach morality, and how resilience - not avoidance - is what we really need when engaging across differences. His work dismantles the myth that we're hopelessly divided and instead offers a path forward - one grounded in empathy, humility, and the science of human connection. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the volume of moral outrage around you, this episode just might restore a little hope. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 55:13. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave Smith #AATWD In This Episode:  trigger warning Guest: Cunty Mc Shitballs This podcast excerpt centers around a recent shooting incident involving a CEO and branches into discussions of corporate greed, hypocrisy within organized religion, censorship, and the importance of allowing diverse perspectives. Here's a breakdown: Initial Discussion of a Shooting Incident: The episode begins with a discussion of a recent shooting of a CEO. The hosts debate whether the event is a sign of societal breakdown ("lizard brain" taking over) or a potential catalyst for change, referencing the Batman narrative as a metaphor for societal upheaval. Critique of Online Hate and Misinformation: The host shares a personal experience of receiving a hateful and contextless online message, leading to a discussion about the prevalence of online negativity and the misuse of terms like "Zionist." Moral Ambiguity of Violence: The conversation explores the moral complexities surrounding the shooting. While acknowledging that promoting violence is wrong, the hosts also discuss the hypocrisy of those who condemn this specific act while supporting other forms of killing, such as the death penalty or actions taken by the government. Critique of For-Profit Healthcare: The discussion shifts to a critique of for-profit healthcare, arguing that it incentivizes denying care for financial gain, which the hosts equate to a form of "murder." They advocate for healthcare, housing, and food as human rights. Hypocrisy Within Organized Religion: The hosts discuss hypocrisy within organized religion, particularly within some churches that have become more like exclusive clubs than places of genuine spiritual connection. The Importance of Uncensored Information: The conversation emphasizes the importance of access to diverse perspectives and uncensored information. The hosts argue that forcing a single narrative prevents people from forming their own informed opinions and understanding the "objective truth." They give an example of a recent event where they believe information is being suppressed. Distrust of Established Narratives: The hosts express distrust of established narratives and suggest that there are always multiple sides to every story. They advocate for critical thinking and the ability to access all available information before forming conclusions. In short, the episode uses a recent shooting incident as a springboard to discuss broader societal issues, including corporate greed, hypocrisy, censorship, and the importance of open dialogue and critical thinking. The hosts express skepticism towards established narratives and advocate for the free flow of information. Thank you for tuning in!

Pour a drink and tune in for a fun (and thoughtful) time.

The radio show dives into a captivating narrative set against a backdrop of darkness and desperation, led by a haunting host who welcomes listeners into a world rich with suspense and intrigue. The central tale begins with Joe Harris, a young man trapped in the monotony of his life in Kansas City. Dressed in a cheap suit and determined to escape the biting cold of winter, Joe opts for an unconventional means of travel—hitching a ride in a freight car to California, where he believes life may hold more promise.However, once aboard the train, Joe discovers that he is not alone. In the dim confines of the boxcar, he encounters a man who eerily resembles him, initiating a tense and fateful confrontation. As the two men grapple in a struggle for survival, Joe is forced to kill his double in self-defense, sparking a panic that leads him to alter his identity by switching draft cards with the deceased. The realization that he has committed murder sets the tone for Joe's spiraling descent into a world of crime and deceit as he grapples with the weight of his actions.After escaping the scene, Joe finds himself stepping off the train in a small town called Wisey, Oklahoma—a place he learns is tied to his victim. As Joe navigates his way through this unfamiliar territory, he soon crosses paths with Bliss, a character who holds information about Joe's past and has a sinister proposition: to eliminate an old uncle in exchange for money. Joe, now trapped in a cycle of fear and deception, reluctantly agrees to Bliss's plan, unwilling to reveal his true identity for fear of being caught for his previous crime.The tension escalates as Joe grapples with moral dilemmas in his newfound precarious situation. Under pressure, he is drawn into a deadly plot involving the uncle, Old Man Carew. As he prepares to commit murder for Bliss, Joe's internal conflict reaches its peak, culminating in a shocking act of violence. However, Joe's actions lead him into further entrapment, as he unwittingly becomes embroiled in a scheme designed to frame him for the very crimes he hoped to escape.The narrative unfolds with gripping suspense as Joe navigates the consequences of his decisions, ultimately culminating in a chilling realization that he cannot outrun his past. As the police begin their investigation into the unfolding events, Joe's story takes a tragic turn, leading to a fateful encounter with the dead body of Martin Pell—the very aspect of his own self he had sought to leave behind.The show underscores themes of identity, moral ambiguity, and the inescapable nature of one's actions through Joe's harrowing experience. The closing remarks by the host echo the somber fate of Joe Harris, leaving listeners with a haunting reminder of the shadows that linger when one tries to evade their true self. Ultimately, the show captures the essence of classic horror storytelling, weaving a tale that lingers long after the final line is delivered, leaving the audience to ponder the chilling connections that bind them to the characters' dark destinies.

This conversation delves into the themes of Brett Easton Ellis's 'American Psycho', exploring its satirical horror elements, the critique of materialism and consumerism, and the psychological depth of its characters. The hosts discuss their differing opinions on the narrative style, the portrayal of wealth and privilege, and the implications of misogyny within the story. They also reflect on the ambiguity of reality versus imagination in the book, ultimately concluding with thoughts on the societal reflections presented in the narrative. In this conversation, Jarrod and Steve delve into the complexities of character development, particularly focusing on the protagonist's inner conflict and moral ambiguity. They explore the societal implications of wealth and detachment, drawing parallels to real-world figures and events. The discussion also touches on personal reactions to the disturbing nature of the book, the narrative's use of musical essays, and concludes with reflections on the overall reading experience and ratings.Send us a messageSupport the showFilm Chewing Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2235582/followLens Chewing on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lenschewingOn VERO: https://vero.co/lenschewingSpeculative Speculations: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/speculative-speculationsSupport the podcast: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/7EQ7XWFUP6K9EJoin Riverside.fm: https://riverside.fm/?via=steve-l

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The moral ambiguity of fishing on wild aquatic animal populations, published by MichaelStJules on May 7, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Summary The net welfare effects of fishing, changes to fishing pressure and demand for wild-caught aquatic animals on wild aquatic animals seem highly morally ambiguous, in large part because there are 1. tradeoffs between species due to predation, e.g. larger (respectively smaller) populations and life expectancies for one species results in smaller (respectively larger) populations and life expectancies for their prey and competitors, and this cascades down the food chain, 2. uncertainty about moral weight tradeoffs between affected species, and 3. depending on the moral view, uncertainty about whether the directly and indirectly affected animals have good or bad lives on average. Acknowledgements Thanks to Brian Tomasik, Ren Ryba and Tori for their feedback on an earlier draft. All errors are my own. For prior related writing that is more comprehensive and suffering-focused, see Tomasik, 2015-2017. This piece focuses on population effects, overlapping largely with Tomasik, 2015. Population effects and welfare uncertainty Increasing the fishing of a species will tend to decrease their population, and decreasing their fishing will tend to increase their population, all else equal. For a given species, the marginal and average effects of fishing on the number of them alive at any time are typically at least several times greater than the effects on their annual catch under standard single-species fishery models.[1] With fishing deaths making up such a small share of a life on average, even if intense (although stunning during capture may be more widely used in the future), the effects on the size of the population and resulting welfare effects could be more ethically important than the effects on the number of fishing deaths. And then the effects on the populations could be morally ambiguous. First, it may be ambiguous whether the average individual has a good or bad life, so that reducing their population through fishing and increasing their population by reducing fishing could be morally ambiguous. Second, there are also population (and life expectancy) tradeoffs between species due to predation, with increasing the population of one species reducing the populations of its prey species.[2] Fishing reduces the populations of the directly fished species and (I'd normally guess) species up the food chain that depend on them,[3] while increasing the populations of the (unfished) prey (and competitors) of the directly fished species. But then the increased populations of the (unfished) prey (and competitors) may result in decreased populations for their prey. And so on. For example, Peruvian anchoveta, the species most wild-caught for feed and the most wild-caught fish species by numbers of individuals and tonnage (Mood & Brooke, 2024, Supplementary material 3, Supplementary material 6, Borthwick et al., 2021), primarily eat krill and copepods (Espinoza & Bertrand, 2008, Espinoza & Bertrand, 2014), so fishing Peruvian anchoveta presumably decreases Peruvian anchoveta populations but increases krill and copepod populations.[4] I illustrate with the effects of fishing on the fished pieces and their (unfished) prey: Fished animals have good lives Fished animals have bad lives Unfished prey have good lives Bad for fished animals Good for unfished prey Good for both Unfished prey have bad lives Bad for both Good for fished animals Bad for unfished prey Effects of fishing on fished animals and their unfished prey, in a simple model ignoring the rest of the food web. Fishing decreases the populations of the fished animal populations and increases the populations of their unfished prey, and these lives could be good or bad. Similarly, fi...

From the misnomer of required nihilism to the essential complexity of characters and the unpredictable beats of their stories, we dissect the anatomy of Grimdark, showing how authentic conflict and the weight of consequence create an experience that resonates on a profoundly human level. Intro 1:50  Faye (Sienna Frost) 11:46 Krystle Matar & Angela Boord 16:36 Peter McLean 17:21 Anna Smith Spark 19:48 Zamil Akhtar 23:11 Armanis Ar-feinial 26:27 Holly Tinsley 27:33 Richard Nell, Sarah Chorn, Michael R.

Eighteen years after this event, the novel picks up with Henchard at the height of his powers, living as a prosperous corn merchant and the mayor of the small town of Casterbridge. However, after selling some bad grain to his constituents and being surpassed in business acumen by Farfrae, a newcomer, Henchard's fortunes fall into steep decline.

In this old episode, we talk shop about video game news such as the God of War designer saying Metroid Dread is bad, Jaice rants about Final Fantasy XIV, and we touch on just how muddled heavy metal subgenres can be.

Moral ambiguity Where is your line? What brought you to that conclusion and do you stand by it? On this one we talk movies, music, culture, sin and religious conviction.

When a murder occurs of an American tycoon on the luxurious Orient Express train on which he's traveling, detective Hercule Poirot is recruited to solve the case. But does solving the murder really close the case, especially for Poirot's conscience? It's been said that murder mysteries satisfy our need to feel that there is justice in the world and a moral order, which is expressed in the character of Agatha Christie's genius detective Hercule Poirot. In episode 16 we talk about three film/tv movie adaptations and themes of Agatha Christie's 1934 novel MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS: The 1974 film, directed by Sidney Lumet, as a story of revenge and vigilante justice. The 2010 film (for the Poirot television series directed by Philip Martin), a story of a murder perpetrated by persons who feel that the rule of law and even God have failed to deliver justice. Kenneth Branagh's 2017 film where Hercule Poirot describes the crime of murder as an act carried out by “wounded souls,” and concludes that the scales of justice cannot always be evenly weighed. Spoiler Alert: Some of the suspects and conclusions are revealed.

In this week's episode, Grant and Brooke probe at questions of moral ambiguity with guest Quentin Lee, whose new book, The Secret Diary of Edward Ng, is a sexual coming of age story set in the 1990s. Centering queerness and the Asian and Asian American experience, this work of short fiction is a meditation on otherness, and raises lots of good conversation about auto-fiction, what and how we explore with our fiction, and why staying true to the stories you want to tell is always better than writing to the market.
