Warlocks get their power from making a pact with a powerful being.

What the article fails to mention is these passages supplement and contextualize a primary text.

The tower of Babel, along with Prometheus, help illustrate the themes in Frankenstein.

There is value in reading the Bible as a work of historically relevant literature. I’m not sure if this curriculum is doing that, but its not doing indoctrination either. And if they are, I think it helps demystify the book and place in a time and place relevant to some people through the time.

I would take a bigger issue with seventh grader having to read A Wrinkle in Time as a primary text. It’s a good book, but it is a very Christian book.

Airbags and shoulder harness seat belts are a lot easier to place with bucket seats.

So you haven’t looked into it, certain you know their wounds were self inflicted, and can’t be bothered to do the research yourself. Unsurprising.

If you are going to put forward the thesis that a language’s decline is ‘self-inflicted,’ the responsibility lies with you to substantiate that claim with evidence, not to demand that I act as your research assistant. I have no obligation to answer your questions until you have demonstrated a genuine willingness to engage with the historical realities already presented.

I don’t see how not doing the healing work for the wound is the same as self inflicted.

All of those are questions are good historical questions that provide historical insight to the conditions that prevented this restoration of Welsh being as wide spread. But you write them as accusations, not as points for insight.

And the wounds, while similar, are much older in the case of Welsh which means it could be harder to organize people to do the healing work.

It’s very odd to me that you think this is self inflicted and that people aren’t doing the healing work. Why are you so sure? I’m assuming you’ve looked into it.

Just curious, why did you assume it was self-inflicted?

I self host on windows. It just happened to be what I had on the box. Then I got started with docker. So that was great. When I have the time, I hope to switch to unraid, but need the time to be open enough to deal with the problem that will arise in getting the system set up just right.

If you insist on “is” then “zero” doesn’t work. But if you use “are” the sentence, “There are zero pigs” is totally cromulant. That’s because “pigs” in that sentence is addressing the category.

But they are asking with the number zero specifically. “There is zero pig” is not how we speak.

It’s plural, but not because there are many pigs.

“How many pigs are there?” And answering with “There are no pigs” use the noun “pigs” in the same way. They are referring to the “pig” category or kind. When answering knowing the actual count, it’s a specific number or token.

I don’t imagine it’s linear. Maturity probably has some connection to biological development.

Man… Sort working with my kiddo on this particular root issue. Getting to the answer is great. Do it fast for sure. But learning the skill of sustained effort is an important skill to develop. We’re using piano as our entry point. He’ll be able to get the piece down in about 45 to 60 minutes. So we’re working on developing creative expression in a piece, improv that allows for techniques learned in the piece, and then just introducing the next piece. I’m looking forward to him creatively engaging the same piece for an extended period of time.

“Gifted” education has come a long way since I was a kid. We know acceleration isn’t the only or even best tool for kids. And many gifted kids come with different executive functions so rote repetition feels like torture. Employing a depth of knowledge schema and circling back to previously learned concepts coupled with individual expression has been great! That and developing emotional tools for self regulation have been the primary efforts for the last few years. It’s been getting a lot better!

I love lists.

I also love forgetting about my list. And being judged by my list. And getting annoyed by the asshole who made this list and why didnt hey write enough information for to know what “Tess email today” is suppose to mean and fuck it, Tess is getting a goddamn email whether she wanted one or not!

lol, no

That etymology tracks more closely with the réal. Real goes back to the Latin res meaning property or affairs.
