In this episode of my Stupid Little Podcast, I take the time to briefly examine the recent excommunication of the Fraternal Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX/Lefebvrists), using this discussion as a springboard to discuss a broader ethical question about how we ought to justly respond to injustice.

In this episode of my Stupid Little Podcast, I've put together a few extended clips from recent livestreams where I discussed some interesting and slightly related topics. First, I discuss the mutuality of love, with an eye towards my discussion of Plato's Symposium. Next, I discuss bad actors in betting markets. Finally, I discuss those law trial sequences we often find in RPGs, and what we can take away from this one in particular from Greedfall II for real world legal theory. You'll find timestamps below for each.
