If we’ve missed you on this serendipitous who’s who list of active Plusporans and #CHECKIN visitors, just yell! 💕

#Checkin welcomes you to Friday, June 5!

Whether you are #newhere, a regular or a visitor, this is #checkin, which means you choose what you wish to do - wave, say hello, share your insights or worries about our chaotic world, unrelated experiences, pics, poetry, music, memes, questions, or, just relax, sip on your pixel coffee/tea/drink and enjoy the company. There’ll be good folks dropping in from many time zones to join us. No need to worry about social distancing here. 🤗




Okay, for today's topic - let's have some fun! How about something most of us haven't done in a looooong time, if ever? Remember 'show and tell' day at school? Bring an object to show your pals and tell them about it. We all own things that are meaningful or have stories associated with them. It's all right if you don't have a capture of it - you can describe it. Or, many of you have mentioned things you've created recently - ever thought some of us may be itching to see it/them? If you can't decide exactly what, don't fret, just share what comes to mind. #whynot 😆

---

What is checkin?
- To find out more about #CHECKIN click here.
- To get included in the daily #CheckIn invitation just jump in and comment/like and someone will confirm you want a “mention” notification.
- To get uninvited let us know via comment or direct message.

If we’ve missed you on this serendipitous who’s who list of active Plusporans and #CHECKIN visitors, just yell! 💕

#Checkin welcomes you to Tuesday June 2!

Despite Covid-19, this corner of the internets, diaspora* style, sticks with tradition: Here’s where you can continue a topic from yesterday, send a wave, give a brief update or take part in the daily thread (or pick one of the older if you're so inclined). Same procedure, checkin! Welcome! You’re welcome to say hi anytime, or just wave or have a cup while you run / swim / fly by, #newhere or regular.




So, topics today, oh my. The Leave Office Early Today fun holiday is on, a crackpot joke for many, working at home or not working. Politics, while fine as a topic, tends to present itself as dire as can be and brings the bad spirits out in some - not so much here on pluspora, but rather on the streets of the US, thwarting the very legit desire of many to just protest peacefully. Most succinct statement was given by James Cordon, and didn't we talk Comedy the other day? This contribution is universal, as is the humanists' hope to educate more in order to better the world. Recommended watch in this fashion:

Checkin is, as always, an early morning / afternoon / or late night opportunity, whatever your timezone brings with it. Socialize with or without reference to politics, and the unfortunate wealth of deviations from an ideal world. Just be here, that brings some comfort.

What is checkin?

We talked kitchen appliances the other day, and I noticed that before I buy that energy-saving next fridge I'd need to sort through all those fridge magnets. Do you have any? Does your fridge magically collect these things? Or how do you use the outside of that bulky piece? Any fancy in-door screens to not cover by to do-lists or delivery service flyers? Or sporting any curious adornment a picture of which you'd like to share?

Here in Protestant Germany, Pentecost is a public holiday, so I can have another lazy day off and need not to do work for work, but can do as I please. (Maybe hoping for ebay buyers to respond to my ads, or getting that blogging server live I've been preparing..) Reading #checkin might be an option, otoh the weather is very summery today at around expected 24C, and that'll make for a nice bike ride somewhere not so close by. We'll see. Today is also say something nice day, however we do that all the time here, don't we? Enjoy your day, whatever your plans are!

Don reminded me of something yesterday re Monty Python. I caught many episodes on VHS tape back in, hmmm, 1988 or so, to watch them again and again. Some old comedy can still be brilliant today, if it aged well. Everybody I met living in Britain, naming the international crowd of students I mingled with in particular, knew how to recite their favourite from the 70s and 80s. Today, without Trevor Noah and other Late Night shows, politics would seem terribly complicated to the point of news aversion. But, the en point, succinct one-line summary is so much easier to consume and remember, is it not. Yadda yadda.. what I'm getting at is condensed humour. Does it work for everyone? Is assuming it works everywhere a very Western fallacy? You've been places. So name or link examples of good comedy please and make us laugh, or find bad sketches that just fail to work. We'll help you find out which is true subjectively, and laugh along. Discussion optional.

Any other topic is fine really. What's on your mind, maybe talk macaroon day. Bring your pet, or the weather. We'll be here.

As always, take it as a early morning / afternoon / or late night opportunity, whatever your timezone brings with it. Discuss, lament, report or encourage over a cup of virtual coffee or tea.

Welcome to #CheckIn for Tuesday May 26

Here’s where you can continue the topic from yesterday, send a wave, give brief update or take part in daily thread.



One thing I like about going on holidays is I get out of my clothing routine. It's my chance to wear dresses and bathing suits all the time. At home, it's bright t-shirts and pants. So the question today is...jeans, slacks or yoga pants/joggers? Or shorts, kilts?

Or just tell us how you are!

Welcome to #CheckIn for Saturday May 23

Here’s where you can continue the topic from yesterday, send a wave, give brief update or take part in daily thread.

It’s Caturday so let’s talk about grooming😉 A lot of grooming is associated with going “out in public” but we haven’t been doing a lot of that right now. Instead, a lot of us are doing video calls while working from home. I’ve read that an uncomfortable aspect of video calls is the weird eye contact. Most cameras are not at an easy eye contact location (not to mention the scary angles!) Since retiring I do have a routine of getting ready whether I am or not I have plans so I don’t mind having video active…unless I’m working out with my group and I turn the video off (but have an avatar). Have you started doing more video calls? Are you comfortable with the camera on or do you prefer to have an avatar up?




Of course, cat pics are welcome!

Welcome to #CheckIn for Friday May 22

Here’s where you can continue the topic from yesterday, send a wave, give brief update or take part in daily thread.



It’s furred/feathered Friday. Research shows dogs go through adolescence! It happens around 8 months and some of you may remember that’s when we decided we needed a behaviourist to help us with Bennie. Happily we’ve settled into a routine we can all enjoy. I’ve got a lot more stories about Milo who was with us for 16 years. Milo started as an escape artist and I’ll never forget getting a text from a stranger saying they had Milo blocks away when I thought he was in the backyard! He was 14 or so. Growing up we had canaries so mornings were filled with canary bird songs as my dad tried to encourage his canaries to sing.

Any memories you care to share?

It's Thursday somewhere so there's a new #CheckIn thread here

Welcome to #CheckIn for Thursday May 21

Here’s where you can continue the topic from yesterday, send a wave, give brief update or take part in daily thread. If you’re #NewHere, welcome! We just had a great week of topics hosted by @Nora. Hopefully my week will be as fun.

In one of the other threads the topic of prescience came up. I’ve spent a lot of time with the idea because of my full name – my dad was studying Homer at school when I was born and he liked the name. It really came to the fore when we were taking Greek mythology in grade school. I tend to think it’s a combination of observance on the part of the predictor and confirmation bias. I make predictions to _try_to create a realistic endpoint of a situation.

When Canada went into pandemic mode, I wrote my prediction for economic resumption on our kitchen tile – it’s a tradition we’ve implemented to reduce arguments about … predictions. You can see, like any successful psychic I've been fuzzy enough in my wording to be mostly right😁 Have you predicted events? Was it inspired by a dream, a feeling of déjà vu or just the news? Does making predictions make you feel better?

Checkin welcomes you to Wednesday May 20

Woden’s Day 20 May 2020…

This week has flown, no? Wednesday the middle of the old week…when I was teaching I never let the students choose their own topic since what was the point of learning research and writing an essay or paper if you already liked or loved your topic? I was brutal too…I had students write for a topic they hated and make it convincing. HA! the whining and complaints I heard….I told them no one is making you become a vegetarian if you write a paper for becoming a vegetarian! I am not asking you to convert to that religion either….I had fun topics through out the semester since there was a paper due each week…. why do we have 24 hours in the day? Why 60 minutes, seconds etc….where did the names of the days come from are they different in other countries…. Lots of fun times. The plus for me is I learned stuff while reading the 40 papers a week…no one ever wrote the same paper( and if they did I knew the wife wrote both papers! HA!)

---

Which brings me to the QOTD!
There must be a billion movies out there in the world….I have rather eclectic tastes and have seen a bunch….
However today let us share our favorite not necessarily for adults movies we love…and I forbid using the term “guilty pleasure” unless you are into immoral or unethical behaviors then if it is a pleasure to watch the Three Stooges then why feel guilt!? I love many non adult films and own a few too….One favorite is the_ Return to Oz with Nicol Williamson, Jean Marsh, Piper Laurie, and Fairuza Balk… it is Disney but not as much Disney crap as others. Another movie is _The Last Star Fighter… I have a lot more but those are far apart in genre to get the idea. I watch for plot, costume, sets, direction, acting and over all feel of the film…I enjoy seeing the art that goes into a film and I know for everything on camera there is 100+ people behind the camera and 100s more making the stuff. I also own all the Harry Potter movies and novels…. and I can get lost in the story & the sets. I also love the TV mini series The 10th Kingdom, I was teaching night classes with that one and taped it, then bought the VCR set they sold THEN bought the DVD set…ooo & The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe (read the books for that one too…. ( not the new movie but the one I saw on PBS) so you see where I am… pure escape out of life into somewhere else.
As always you can say I never watch kids stuff( HA!) continue the topic from the previous days or just drop by say hi, so we know you are OK…we do care! or talk about anything else! This is Checkin !
ps early again but I been up since 4am!

## Checkin welcomes you to Tuesday May 19

Tuesday 19 May 2020
When I was young Tuesdays were Red’s Tamales Day, and two for Tuesday on the radio where we would get 2 songs by the same artist in a row all day long….I like Red’s tamales and that is how I make them when I do but in a tea cup or a custard cup and steam them in an oven steamer. Mom had a huge roaster with lid that also was a roasting pan that I could fit a cake rack in and bake them in a steam bath….Soon I got lazy and made it into a big pie in a oblong baking dish….my favorite way was to make a polenta from the cornmeal adding some butter and cheese line the pan with at least 1/2 inch thick reserving the rest for the top. I would then put my chili in the center ( and I had maybe 5 different kinds depending on my mood ) any favorite recipe is good as long as you like it…for being fancy I would add whole canned corn and olives ( I used the broth from the corn to add to the polenta water.then cover the whole thing and bake until the top is browned…I did vegetarian versions too I have several different ones of veg chili. So that is my version of Red’s tamales. When I got to Texas tamales were dry wrapped in a husk and steamed; the masa corner dough was made with water & lard &cornmeal…. my point is regional cooking Texas Mexican is different from California and different from New Mexico. This can also be part of the QOTS since you all live somewhere else and regional food is scared in many places***
As for the 2 songs in a row on the radio nearly every station did it and that was such a nice treat back too many years ago.
Those are my sorta traditions for one of the days of the week…What are a few old childhood traditions that every one knew whether you did them or not…were there a advert that always tried to become a thing like Red’s on Tuesdays? Makes no different what day of the week it was…….Just some local town/ village/ city/ or even if it is just a quirky family thing….Like Sunday dinner at grandmas and grandpas …or the night your mom made the same dish…or what ever is a little thing from your past and child hood that you can recall…game night with the family…or everyone out weeding the garden on Saturday mornings….So it need not be food or radio or TV but can be…this is a time to walk down memory lane and recall something nice….and as always you can continue on any of the previous topics, just say hi I am not dead yet, so we know you are OK because we care…
