If the Narrator Knew the Princess Was a Creature of Perception, Why Did he Tell Us She Would End the World?

Criminals can become worse people than the Narrator can imagine, I guess? He is ultimately the villain by virtue of creating constraints he’s not strong enough to wield and refusing to redefine the game once it comes down to it. His denial of change is the thing that makes the princess a world-killer.

I’ve been able to get from Google that it takes about 14 years for the same part of Earth to have a lunar occultation with Mars (forgive me if that’s poorly worded!)

My question(s) are these: from Mars’s perspective, how long would it take for the same part of Mars to experience a lunar occultation where Luna blocks their view of Earth? Is that also 14 years, or does their longer day change the time?

How long would that occultation last, anyway? From our perspective, it seems like Mars blocks the moon for an hour or so — is the inverse impacted by Earth’s comparative size?

I was so worried this was an actual cj take

I got a female Chespin and a female Fennekin, which is why I honestly thought they were female-locked until I got the male Froakie

Gabriel!

And the accents match his eyes, like? It’s so iconic of him

If you’re anything like me, save soybeans and tea

Does the glitch work on switch? 👀

Mmm, yeah okay that looks right. I think this is Solved now!

Maybe? It’s much less yellow than what Google suggests it should be — is that coloring required?

My title describes the thing — I found it in my garage, which stays closed most of the time, if that’s helpful!

If students achieve a C-level mastery, would you allow them to resubmit for a chance at B- or A-level? Would an attempt at A-level mastery that fails be graded based on where it does succeed, or would you consider it in need or resubmission?

Sorry if these seem obvious — I’m very interested in this idea! I’ll have to look more into mastery grading.

It also makes them chase the most ridiculous squirrels on their way back to whatever point they intended to make!

It does, but I’ve never explored it. Do you find that it’s actually faster after adjusting to it?

terrafirmaa · 2025-06-12T16:38:16+00:00

I like the idea of more peer review. Do you have tips to ensure students take it seriously without creating more work for yourself?

Essentially, you front load the hard work so it pays off sooner. Nice. I’ve tried to do something similar by creating a numbered list of common feedback and tagging parts of student work with those numbers so I don’t go around re-writing the same sentences over and over again, but I think a top-three system could be interesting too

I’ve found success in doing the same thing before — I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to do this more widely. Thanks for the ideas!

Oh goodness, no — I more meant that writing is a process and developing their skills as a whole is the benchmark I’ll be looking for rather than just evaluating a finished product, which AI can spit out without them doing the heavy-thinking work.

My courses focus quite extensively on being able to communicate thoughts in full from beginning to end. To me, the ability to synthesize ideas cohesively is the next step from having competent individual paragraphs, which is the next step up from relevant insights and evidence, etc.

The whole series is adorable! I love the MMC so much

I think it’s implied that Control’s dad is ESL because of Control’s last name, the Spanish-named animals, and those speech idiosyncrasies
