So I was at a concert and ran out of storage on my phone. In my haste to free up storage, I deleted signal. Now, I can't get back into my old account. The thing is, I have my iPad linked to my OG signal and it's still logged in. How can I use my linked iPad to get back into my primary account on my phone?
So I like to do a lot of arguing online about politics and I often see people saying that the Nazis were left wing or that they were socialists because they called themselves the National Socialist Party. Having read a lot of books on Nazi Germany, I know this is total BS. Some of the first people they persecuted after gaining power were socialists and communists, banning the SPD and other left/communist parties and sending people with those views to reeducation camps.
They seem anti capitalist at a glance, but not because they were actually against capitalism as a system, rather they just hated those who they perceived to be benefiting from capitalism: Jews. They liked wealthy elites controlling the economy and government, they just wanted to ensure that only Aryans were allowed to do so. When they stole the assets of the Jewish elites, they gave it to Aryan elites instead of redistributing it to the public like a socialist would. Socialism also doesn’t make the ethnic distinction between elites, instead redistributing assets from all elites, not just Jewish ones.
The issue I’m running into going over my argument is that it feels like a No True Scotsman fallacy. While most people I argue with probably wouldn’t know to point that out, it still irks me because I know I can do better.
How can I better explain that the Nazis weren’t real socialists because they didn’t follow the ideals of socialism without it sounding like a fallacy? Or is there a way to explain why it’s not a fallacy at all?
We just moved and I am trading the power cord on our stove out for a hard line. In getting the power cord off, I had to damage the screws because the installers torqued them. I have gone to every hardware store and cannot find the screws.
Now, the terminal block has two screw holes per wire color: one for the cord wire and one for the stove wire. Only the cord wire screws were damaged. The screws for the stove wires are fine. I’m wondering if it’s ok to just put both cords on the same screws (as shown in picture) or if that will be a fire hazard.
I wanted to see what everyone else thought Dany’s arc would be in TWOW. I’ve been wondering about it after my reread of ADWD.
I think it’s pretty obvious that she will be returning to Vaes Dothrak because of the Quaithe prophecy (to go forward, you must go back) and because it’s not like Drogon is letting her return to Meereen any time soon. But how will she go back? Will it be as a captive like in the show or will she go of her own accord to try and unite the Dothraki behind her? If she does unite the Dothraki as the Khal of Khals, how will she do it?
After her arc with the Dothraki, she will need to go back to Meereen because she has unfinished business there and once again because of the Quaithe prophecy (to go west, you must go east). What will she do once she gets there? I’m guessing she will rain fire down on the masters since peace failed, but does she just stop with Meereen or does she take back Yunkai and Astapor too on her way to Westeros? Will she also destroy the masters of New Ghis (this would be a bit out of her way, but they would pose a threat to her liberated people)? Volantis feels like a Chekhov’s Gun since it is so well known for slavery, is in the path to Westeros, is already established as one of Dany’s enemies, and has slaves there waiting for her coming. She has to do something about it, but what? Could she also go after the other free cities like Lys and Tyrosh since they also practice slavery?
How will she handle Hizdahr? Will he even still be alive when she gets there? Victarion certainly has no objections to killing him, and if Daario is still alive after the Battle of Fire, he would also want Hizdahr dead, if not out of jealousy, then for the poisoning (whether that was truly Hizdahr or not).
If Hizdahr is no longer in the picture, will Dany marry Victarion Greyjoy? She will need the Iron Fleet if she means to take her army to Westeros, but is she willing to pay his price for them? She’s already done the political alliance marriage with Hizdahr, and her arc is clearly moving away from such diplomatic approaches with her Fire and Blood revelations in the Dothraki Sea. Will she take the Iron Fleet from him by force? How will she react to the Dragonbinder horn? Will the Dragonbinder horn even work as intended?
How will she react to the return of Jorah and will she like his gift of Tyrion, or will she have his head off?
How will she react to Tyrion in general? He did win the Second Sons back to her side, and he killed his father who was responsible for the sack of KL and the death of her brother’s children. But then again, he is a Lannister. Will we see a similar situation as the show where Tyrion helps to rule Meereen in her absence?
And most importantly to me, when will she put a saddle on her dragon? Because I will not accept the idea that she just rawdogs dragon riding for the rest of the story like she did in the show.
If y’all have any other ideas or theories for what happens or other questions, I would love to hear them!
