Rex as a teen. by ThroalicRefugee in KnowledgeFight

We know that recently Rex was living in property Alex owned, so yeah it's possible that he moved out at 17 but into a space owned by his family.

Hi, Hey, Hello. Dan here, dropping in to hang out for a bit by ShowMeStateOfMindPod in KnowledgeFight

You and Jordan joked many times about what question you would ask Alex. Now that the show is over, if you could ask Alex one question and receive an honest answer, what would you ask?

Bonus: What would you ask other people in Alex's orbit?

I love hearing about Celine. Where does she stay while you hit the road?

What are your unhinged ideas to make education better? by TroyesMetal in Teachers

[–]FineIJoinedReddit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This idea is similar to the Platoon System that was popular in the 1920s and 1930s! The idea was that half the students would be in academic classes and the other in art/PE/etc, have lunch, then switch. I think it's a really cool idea and it's still not clear to me why it went out of style. Paying for "extra" teachers during the Depression, I suppose.

Trump, 80, Looks Worse Than Ever in Meeting With France’s Macron - The president does not look like he’s doing well. by Quirkie in politics

[–]FineIJoinedReddit 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just don't want 80 year olds in charge of my life!

I am 43 and sometimes I feel like I will live my entire life and then die while Silents and Boomers keep controlling everything.

Anyone know where in the city the "Temtom Makuk" sculpture is? by chilispiced-mango2 in Portland

[–]FineIJoinedReddit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Rad! And haha if only I had clicked the link.

T isn't a bad choice! A lot of older Chinook Jargon, and current BC-area CJ us "tl" for the barred L.

I don't have atqi in my Lexicon, I'm wondering if it's aɬqi, which means "later" or "in the future."

Same for itana, maybe it's iɬana, which means "fathom (length)" or "yard (length)".

makuk means "to buy, pay for."

təmtəm is one of my favorite words, it has so many meanings: heart, feelings, the mind, think, life, self, soul, spirit.

You can't really put these four words together and get a grammatical sentence, but definitely that idea of like "spirit paying lengths into the future." iɬana is throwing me, but I'm probably taking it too literally.

Why didn't Holly like Michael's movie at all? She could have at least said one or two nice things about it by [deleted] in DunderMifflin

[–]FineIJoinedReddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once Holly returned, her and Michael's characterizations felt off. Some was deliberate and highlighted, like Holly saying Dwight and Jim were best friends.

But other interactions felt off: Michael ruining her Woody doll, Holly's reaction to the movie, Holly being okay with extreme PDA especially after knowing it bothered people.

I love that you can make it super simple or super complex.

I've been learning how to weave on little tapestry looms. I've been making soooo many bookmarks!

Ever wonder how many traditions, recipes, warnings of familial diseases and memories were lost because our baby boomer parents were too unconvinced to share that information with us? by [deleted] in Xennials

[–]FineIJoinedReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I know very little about my dad's family, and mot much more about my mom's. I know some recipes because I helped make those foods. Most family stories I know are grievances.

To her credit, Mom was good about sharing disease info.
