Troubleshooting • TypeError, Non-iterable int Object..... Reddit Quotes

Hi! I am running a python script that someone else wrote and I keep coming up with a "non-iterable int object" error. This script goes out to reddit on the internet and grabs quotes of the day to display on a 2.7" e-paper display. There's been no problem connecting to the internet. This is a PI0.

The error messages that I'm receiving look as follows:

DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTPS connection (1): www.reddit.com:443
DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:https://www.reddit.com:443 "GET /r/quotes/top/.json?t=month&limit=100&after=t3_1acerzz HTTP/1.1" 200 13872

File "/home/genevieve/edify/edify.py", line 112, in _place_text

TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable int object

These errors are coming from a python script called edify.py. This script is located at github.com\veebch\edify. I am new to raspberrypi and totally new to python. Let me know if you can help.

Thank you most graciously for your audience and assistance,

Tim
