As someone with major cognitive issues AND someone who wants to go into teaching, it’s so important to me personally to make sure EVERYONE can understand something. To me, if you intentionally make things difficult to understand, you’re just gatekeeping. It doesn’t help anyone.
The only time difficult things help is when you’re working through problems (like homework or classwork problems). That helps it stick as you work through it. But the actual learning before the work, that should be easy. UGH.
I think Leon the Lobster is a lobster of culture.
for the most part you’re right, but i feel like, at least online, people were so much nicer during the 2000s and early 10s. people seem downright vicious these days.
like. i come online to chill. the world is a dumpster fire. i’m here to get away from that for a bit. why are you (you referring to the aggressive people) here?
maybe it makes them feel better. all i can say to them, as someone who has been voluntarily hospitalized for homicidal ideation and is disabled due to rage issues and STILL manages to be kind and civil most of the time - get help maybe? idk? what is so joyful about getting a rise out of people? there’s so much more to life?
