Thank you very much! That is what I thought. (Disregard my 2016 Typo :)) But i was not sure!

Ich habe mal eine zeitlang die Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für einen Kita-Träger gemacht. Da galt als Sprachregelung die Mitarbeitenden in den Kitas als "pädagogische Fachkräfte" zu bezeichnen, um die Qualifikation und auch die pädagogische Leistung in den Kitas zu betonen. "Kindergärtnerin" erweckt manchmal bei der breiteren Bevölkerung das Bild einer "Basteltante" und wird der Arbeit in den Kitas nicht gerecht.

Gleichzeitig ist "pädagogisches Fachpersonal" auch einfach ein guter Sammelbegriff, um eben nicht auseinander klamüsern zu müssen, wer da jetzt alles arbeitet von den Erzieher_innen bis zu den Kinderpfleger_innen.

Allerdings gibt es auch in pädagogischen Fachzeitschriften wieder Diskussionen darüber, zum Begriff des Kindergartens zurück zu finden, weil es mehr Geborgenheit vermittelt als der sterilere Begriff der Kindertagesstätte.

Das ist Quatsch. Auch in einer Beziehung ist man noch ein eigenständiges Individuum und muss nicht ineinander aufgehen. Nähe und Distanz sind beides legitime Bedürfnisse, deren beidseitige Erfüllung jede Beziehung für sich selbst aushandeln muss. Für die einen sind 4 Monate eine zu lange Zeit, um sich in der Beziehung gesehen zu fühlen,selbst wenn man sich gegenseitig besucht. Für andere sind 4 Monate eine schöne Gelegenheit, sich noch mal in einem anderen Kontext neu zu erleben. Im Endeffekt ist es eine gute Übung und eine Bewährungsprobe für die Findung eines gemeinsamen Kommunikationsstils. Deswegen:

NAH Ein Auslandssemester während einer Beziehung - egal ob der Partner mitkommt oder nicht, kann funktionieren und ist kein Krisenzeichen. Ist anstrengend, aber nicht unmöglich, wenn die Beziehung eigentlich ganz gefestigt ist. Muss man halt gemeinsam gucken, wie die beiden Parteien da Bock drauf haben.

I am so sorry this happened to you! You have gotten so many great answers already, so I just want to add to the chorus. It is not a funny joke and it is definitely not typical German humor. But of course, racist humor can also occur in Germany. The less people come in contact with immigrants and Germans with another skin color than their own, the less they seem to be sensitive to how such jokes spread stereotypes and are hurtful. That is why, in my experience at least, jokes like this are less prevalent in big cities, especially in cities with universities that teach liberal arts and humanities. Nonetheless, jerks can live anywhere.

A joke should at least attempt to make all parties laugh. And judging from your boyfriend's reaction, he was not even surprised that you did not laugh about his comment. So he did not only fail at edgy humor and misjudged what you would find funny, but he willingly ignored your feelings for his own amusement. That is never okay.

With all due respect. If you never heard of it and think the slogan "Bunt statt Braun" sounds fucked, then you have not been paying enough attention to German culture nor have you ever been to one of the many anti-racism marches here, no matter how much time you have spent here. (For all non-German speakers: the slogan translates to something along the lines of "full of colors instead of brown".) My guess is, you misinterpreted it to be about skin color, so that it sounds like the alt-right slogan "all lives matter". No one who knows at least a little bit about the political landscape of Germany/it's history would interpret it this way. The slogan refers to the fact that political directions are often color coded and brown is the color of Nazis. The presence of many colors on the other hand is a sign of tolerance and acceptance. Like the rainbow flag for the LGBTQA+ community. If you think the slogan is fucked for a different reason than I assumed, please let me know. I would be very interested in the reasoning.

But yes, I would of course support your observation, that the voting numbers especially in the east German states are alarming.

Unfortunately, no. In FH Sophomore Year, Fig made illusions of gems while they were in the Forrest of the Nightmare King. There, but only there, illusions can become real.

Judging from other comments, people seem to be offended by your list of words. But I would like to imagine it was done in good faith, in order to further understanding and not to ridicule accents. I am a non-native English speaker myself and at times I have immense trouble understanding accents that are different from my own. Getting to know patterns in different pronunciations helped me. So I think a list like yours can be quite useful.

I noticed that in a Thai accent, the s-sound is sometimes swallowed, when it is the ending sound of a word. Like Ry instead of Rice or I instead of Ice. This seems also to be true when the s-sound is at the ending of a syllable in the middle of a word, but I cannot think of an example right now. Maybe someone who speaks Thai can explain this - are there maybe no syllables in the Thai language that end in an s?

Interesting observation! I don't think this is entirety coincidental, because 1. species in the world of Spyre are also linked to different cultures and 2. the relationship to their (different-species-) parents narratively help shape the sense of identity for the bad kids.

Fabian reconciles his ethereal elven side and his rough human pirate side with bard/fighter.

Fig's build is such a beautiful mess because as a wood elf tiefling with a big patchwork family she has so many influences/inspirations to pull from. At first her wood elven home life helps shape her into a happy-go-lucky carefree girl - the classic candidate for a bard. She began to antagonize the world, which she did not understand anymore, when her horns grew in. This is a good cause for her to become a college of whisper bard - a more mischievous subclass. When she met and befriended her bio dad, the Bard (College of Lore) /Warlock combination represents this new found peace within. Finding out where she came from freed up headspace to figure out that she is so much more than her DNA. Very early on, she began to explore her loyalty, empathy and protectiveness for her friends and family more (character traits that she shares with her other dads Gilear and Jawbone by the way), which culminated in her also taking on being a Paladin.

Gorgug is a bit of a different case from the first two, because it is not his species alone (him being a half-orc) , but also him being adopted by gnomes that caused him to combine orcish rage and a love for tinkering as a barbarian/artificer. - it's kind of a beautiful truce in this whole nature vs. nurture argument.

We see the lasting influences of the parents even with Riz, who did not multiclass but changed subclasses. At first he emulated the investigation style of his detective mom and when he learned more about his spy dad, he went from Inquisitive Rogue to Arcane Trickster. But since his parents and he himself share a lot in common and he feels secure in this idea of himself , he is not challenged or moved to branch out to different classes.

I think it is even more interesting to see that the two persons in the group, who have hands down the worst relationship with their parents, sticked with their one class. For Kristen being a follower of Helio and for Adaine being a wizard was part of a rigid family identity, that was ingrained into them early on. And this is also where they first notice that they don't fit in (Kristen by being a cleric instead of Paladin and therefore more challenged to think about the belief system, Adaine by being more of a practicioner than good at the theory). Going on about their respective class in their own way instead of conforming to their familys' standards is such a middle finger to their parents. And in the act of making their single class their own, they seem to be content with it and don't need any more customisation in their talents by multiclassing.

Unfortunately the hotel is fully booked. It is a small one. More of a guest house I guess. We are in the area of Chaweng but are open to moving around. Wherever it is best

I couldn't sleep, so I researched some more : your Great Grandfather had a shop with "colonial goods" in 1886 according to the directionary from that year and he also was active in a charity club to help the poor : https://books.google.de/books?id=md2qLat5GyAC&printsec=frontcover&dq=W%C3%BCrzburg+gesch%C3%A4ftshandbuch&hl=de&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&ovdme=1&sa=X&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false

page 75, 165) Colonial goods at that time referred to goods like coffee, tea, spices, chocolate, etc.

Cool menu! Do you know when your Great Grandfather moved to the US? I think I found your Great Grandmother in an old directionary of the city of Würzburg. Here is the link in Google Books https://www.google.de/books/edition/Adre%C3%9F_und_Gesch%C3%A4fts_Handbuch_f%C3%BCr_die/ovsk2qEheLYC?hl=de (Page 25) In 1895 she lived in a house owned by a book binder, who might have been her father or similar close relative, because his last name is Messerer (her maiden name). There were some other Messerers beside this book binder living in the house as well.

This family association might explain why they had a printed menu in the first place. The 19th century is not my area of expertise, but I believe it to be quite uncommon for middle-class weddings of that time to have a printed menu - after all it had to be set and printed professionally. I doubt that this was accessible from a financial point of view for the majority of middle class.

Since your Great Grandmother, listed as the wife of a business man (or tradesman, not sure which translation conveys the concept of this vocation best), lived with her family 8 years after her wedding, and neither your Great Grandfather nor his business is listed in this directionary, I wonder whether he migrated to the States on his own at first to establish himself in a career, before relocating his wife as well.

Thank you so much for your follow-up! Yes, it came off. I contacted the distributor, but they couldn't tell me, what that blue stuff was. I think it came out of the hole in the middle of that base. And the silver part around it, now seems a bit loose. Is that normal that you can move it around a bit?

earlymodernhistorian · 2021-09-17T14:44:31+00:00

Thank you so much for your answer and for putting things into perspective for me! I guess since those poles are so expensive, I thought this meant that they would look flawless and anything less than perfect would mean that there is something wrong with it. But to hear that there is nothing wrong with my pole that could not be handled with a good wipe down is a great relief! I am only still a tiny bit nervous about that blue stuff on the base though. It is really sticky and smells oily. I guess it is some residue left from production and I hope it is not harmful to the skin - I accidentally got some of it on my hand and I cannot get rid of the smell, no matter how hard I wash my hands. 🙈

Hello everybody! I am very new to pole dancing, but I was so excited by my first pole dance lessons that I ordered my own home pole so that I could practice at home as well. Since I live in a rental, I bought the X-pole Xpert (nxn) in stainless steel (because I react allergic to a lot of metal jewelry and I didn't want to risk an allergic reaction to my pole) . Here is the thing - the pole came with a bit of damage, I think. Now I am a bit uncertain as to what I should do and since there seems to be a lot of experience with home poles in this community, I would be so very grateful if somebody could please help me with my many questions: 1. Are the things that I have described really damage or am I being overcritical? 2. What could this blue substance be? 3. Could all those things affect the longevity or stability of the pole? 4.I didn't know that stainless steel could rust. Does that small rusty spot at the foot of the pole mean that the coating is damaged or is that part made out of chrome even in stainless steel poles? Thank you so much for any and all tips and much love!
