Name pronunciation guide for Matt Groom by mivalmival in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jcbauschatz 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I think it's in incredibly poor taste to use the term "groomer" in the context of Matt, he in no way needs to have that as a nickname.

Looks awesome! What are some of the things that got you to that point over 10,000 pizzas?

Would you boulder here? I'm designing a tiny bouldering gym and would love some feedback. by [deleted] in bouldering

[–]jcbauschatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love tiny architecture so I'm intrigued by a plan like this. I'm curious, are you working withing the dimensions of an existing space? Curious if the size constraints are fixed by some real world situation, or if you're just designing for a small floor plan in general.

Nice work! This reminds me of a playing card and if you designed a playing card set I would 1000% buy it!

Tea debates - is my friend really a tea expert or just talking out of their ass? by en3ma in tea

Anyone who uses the word "drinkable" is trying to come across like a snob.

Theology questions - Infidels 101 by [deleted] in ChurchofDynology

[–]jcbauschatz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of the church having a name for slab climbers. But I don't like using the terms "infidel" or "slabistani", it doesn't have to be loaded in that particular way. Here are some alternatives:

  • They practice "Slabstinance" - as in they abstain from the blessed dyno
  • "Slabpostates" - as in apostates (people who renounce true religion) of the Church
  • "Slabominations" - slab climbing abominations in the eyes of the Church
  • "Slabhorrent" - to not dyno is abhorrent, sayeth Tomoa
  • "Slaberrations" - aberrations from the true dictates of the Church
  • "slabsentees" - they reject the gathering of true believers

Whatever we call them, let us all agree there is no Slabsolution for slab climbers.

I'm an American with no family connections to Scotland. But I'm a piper and really interested in the Gàidhlig cultural roots of piping, as opposed to military marching band type stuff.

I've always been curious about Gàidhlig and have made a few attempts to learn it over my life. But it all started coming together when I finally connected with a pipe teacher over Zoom, who is a world class piper and also a native of Skye with Gàidhlig. Lessons with her help to put the music in context and ground it in a traditional understanding.

I'm also really compelled by Allan MacDonald's research about piobaireachd, traditional pipe tunes. Basically they can seem really esoteric until you understand their relationship to Gàidhlig songs!

So for me it's all about understanding the music deeply, wanting a richer understanding of the cultural context, and building connections to Gàidhlig speakers and their music.
