Tuesday May 27 Join me for the first of three challenges designed to offer loose structures for my own thriving, and explore what needs are important to my current self. This challenge uses the metaphor of raising copper wyrmlings - a clutch of shapeshifting baby dragons with ADD and a prankish sense of humor. We'll be offering eight shapes we think the wyrmlings will enjoy wearing, color-coded as a combo of importance and difficulty for the scaley tykes. Green-Coded Shapes should be effortless for the little dragons, and are also critical to prevent draconic meltdowns. Because these creatures are cherished, we'll look at interventions if green-coded shapes aren't suiting the wyrmlings for any reason. Sloth-shape for taking the new sleep med at 10:30PM and then in bed by midnight. Goat-shape for eating vegetable fiber. Raw fruit & veg preferred but fiber is fiber. Rabbit-shape for using 8 rep+ programming on deadlift and squat. Yellow-Coded Shapes aren't difficult but these are shapes the wyrmlings haven't been able to hold consistently since February. We think these shapes are important but we also understand these babes have been doing their best, and you can't shame a baby into growing better. Instead, these dragon's have a certain gnomish bard they idolize, and the whole rookery gets to visit the gnome in August. If they study their yellow-shapes diligently, they can take the gnome's intermediate class. Otherwise they need to attend the beginner class instead, which will still be amazing, but somewhat redundant. Monkey-shape for daily meditation. Horse-shape for daily bodhrán practice. Red-Coded Shapes are those that are both difficult since February and are also not terribly critical for the Wyrmlings. These are shapes that are important for Copper Dragons, but our charges are still young! If a red-shape doesn't fit these baby dragons for a day or even an entire challenge, the wyrmlings get their nose-boops and bedtime stories just the same. Owl-shape for using duolingo's new chess module as an incentive to practice vocab again. The goal is a 1/1 ratio for games of chess and vocab practice. Squid-shape for using 3d design tools such as HomebyMe, Blender, and Autodesk Fusion. Turtle-shape for clearing the work inbox to zero at end of day.

Greetings! 欢迎！Salve! ¡Hola! Hei! Konnichiwa! Doing a Challenge would not be in my best interest, but I love @Laghail's idea of creating a language learning community and I want to have a place to put fun language learning tidbits. So that's what this is. I hope we can use the #kmob hashtag to find each other and have some interesting conversation about our studies & discoveries. (#kmob autofilled for me, so hopefully this shortening of Knights Magister of Babel will be findable for others.) A fun tidbit to start off: The Chinese/Mandarin word for "snack" is literally "zero food" 零食 líng shí

The Tower of Babel, by Pieter Bruegel I Welcome to the Knights-Magister of Babel, where we delve the ruins of the fallen tower and find treasure among the confusions of language! This prestige-class guild exists with twin purposes and on two threads: The Knights Quest Board to encourage language learning content in the 5-week challenges This is the thread for this purpose! You are here! The Magisters Tome-Horde to compile searchable language learning resources There is a separate thread for this purpose! Click here! Join the Knights-Magister of Babel: joining the order is as simple as tagging your challenges with #KMoB. This is your badge of membership and we are honored to accept compatriots with any level of fluency in their target language, from A1 new recruits all the way to C2 veterans. We also acknowledge that language learning can be successful with a variety of approaches, and that fluency can be defined in many ways. Instead of gatekeeping, our order's purpose is to delve the ruins of the Tower of Babel. Participate in a Quest with the Order: Feel free to post your language learning goals and strategies here, but the focus of this guild is to drive participation in our members individual challenges. When this thread produces a Quest to add-on to your existing challenge, you can add the Quest specific tag to your own challenge (E.G. #KMoB-Canticle-Quest), and then tackle your challenge knowing that the other members of the Knights-Magister of Babel will be cheering you on. You yourself can support the other members by looking for #KMoB tags on the challenges listing, or just searching for #KBoB. Contribute to the Tome-Hord: Click here to access the Tome-Hord!
