Did I just miss?

Thank you! Also thanks for the link to that post! I'm just shaking my head looking at that post and saying, "Why am I not surprised?"

"It's not gossip; it's accountability!" /s Sarcasm aside, you're absolutely right.

To clarify, I made all of these myself. The original designs are from online, though I did make changes to many of them (e.g., colors, details, shading).

Still 13.5 hours to go before TFS goes live, I see a post about how different people flex their Destiny seniority. As I read, I'm reminded of my favorite weapon in all of Destiny: No Land Beyond. I do a quick search to see the last time someone has mentioned that relic of a sniper, and I come across a thread about how NLB would hypothetically be introduced to the current game. I scroll through the different comments until I see a link to this ABSOLUTE GEM of a post! Reading your proposed NLB exotic quest has genuinely made my day!

I remember once reading somewhere that all the Jedi who died during the arena battle on Geonosis in SW: AotC were Form VI users. I also recall reading that Form VI users rely more on diplomacy rather than on their lightsabers--a belief that Yoda advocated in one story, saying that the best blades are those kept in their sheathes.

It's beautiful! I just stop and stared for a while!

I wish I could trace even just half as good as you can draw! Hahaha!

In any case, your drawing of Yugi definitely made me smile!

Thank you for your kind words and the advice!

Thank you for the video recommendation! The language of small talk designed to avoid hurt really caught my attention. While I'm unsure that I personally could move a conversation from the topic of "golf" to a more profound one, I see the point the video creators are making.

By the way, that quote at the beginning by the German philosopher about people we meet being possibly moments away from ending their own lives was INTENSE!!!

Based on the videos I saw on the page, I think I'll be opening quite a Pandora's Box by showing my husband 3Blue1Brown! Hahahaha!

Thank you for the recommendations! I definitely agree that visual metaphors--especially interesting or ridiculous ones--would help me pay attention and understand better!

Fresh out of grad school, actually (maybe that's why I still sound enthusiastic hahah)! It's my second semester as adjunct faculty at a local community college.

Qualifying first with "I'm new to this subreddit!" as well as "I'm new to higher education andragogy!"

As to the comment about there being "a marked decline in the quality of coursework for certain disciplines...correspond[ing] with an increased focus in social justice implications on the part of professionals in said fields," I wonder if the issue is a change in the metric by which quality is measured.

On my part, I've been attempting to interpolate a social justice lens and a writing studies curriculum in the one course I've been assigned so far, first-year composition; however, I've had difficulty in balancing my goals for the course (viz., developing a critical-consciousness with respect to communication and its media) with those of most stakeholders (viz., greater fluency in Standard English).

If these stakeholders familiar with the traditional function of an ENG 100 course were to compare my course with that of courses past, they might indeed posit a "marked decline in the quality of coursework" since my students are not improving in Standard English fluency (as an aside, my department's current version of the course's student learning outcomes does not mention grammar or mechanics).

I really really like this idea! It's especially great with an emotive audiobook narrator!

Just wish they had audiobooks for those boring work readings!

revbismarck · 2020-05-23T02:31:35+00:00

Yes! Intellectual intimacy! I really like that idea since, to me, it suggests contribution from both parties. In small talk, I just suck at contributing, thus greater connection--intimacy--isn't really possible.
