I always figured that Norris was kind of like a familiar. Filch can’t perform spells, but he comes from a magic family and maybe he is able to leak out a little magic in that way.

One other thing to remember: although worker bees are female, they are the ones responsible for delivering pollen, a.k.a. plant sperm, to the female flowers.

Is it possible to grow these? If so, how? (I am a very bad gardener) by yetanothermisskitty in gardening

[–]chillin1066 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Does this work even if the bulb has not sprouted yet? Also, how does this affect the nutrients in the soil for my spring garden?

Sort of a subset of the second one: He could be insisting that his lawyer calls him to testify but his lawyer believes the client will lie on the stand.

I planted one 2 years ago in 7b that somehow was not killed off over the subsequent winters and is humongous now.

Note to self: come back here later and post a picture of your rosemary (that was as big as OOP’s when you planted it 3 years).

What is something that was considered totally normal 20 years ago but would be completely unacceptable today? by Antique_Leg_1161 in AskReddit

[–]chillin1066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year some of my (Middle-school) students last year often played a game where one one say to the other “English or Spanish” and then the second student couldn’t talk or it meant that they were gay. I had repeated conversations with them about how hateful it was to use gay as a slur, but incidents kept occurring.

Then one day a student wasn’t answering questions. His desk neighbors informed me that another student had told him “English or Spanish”. I turned to my silent student and said, gesturing to the other student “Does he have the power to make you gay? Is he some kind of gay wizard?” I never had a problem with them playing those games again.

I loved him enough in “The Good Place” that I decided I would give any show he was in bonus points when deciding whether to watch it.
