"everyone is 12" theory holding strong

Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · 1d

An endless amount of deranged details in this interview with Greg Bovino's sister, but most notably that his uncle produced the Jack Nicholson movie The Border and the depiction of the agent as corrupt radicalized him as a 12-yr-old.

"Since then, he was like, 'Dude, I want to do Border Patrol.'"

How a family secret led Greg Bovino to lead Trump's border crackdown

Before he became the face of Trump's tough ICE policies, Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino endured a childhood marked by a family scandal that changed the trajectory of his life.

Not has Israel murdered hundreds of Palestinian footballers in Gaza, but now their own players are getting arrested for gang-raping a tourist.

And they’re still allowed to compete in the World Cup.

Quds News tweet:
Two active Israeli football players and a former player were arrested following reports of their involvement in the rape of a 29-year-old American tourist during her visit to the occupied Palestinian territories, according to Israeli reports.

whoever thought "emojis in filenames is good" must've learned to read via three-cueing

No no no begs every archivist. You are never going to be able to find anything. Please don’t start using emojis in file names. Who asked for this? What fresh hell is next?

anyone who learned to read via phonics can tell you that using these three cues is very obviously not how a person reads

graphic cues (what do the letters tell you about what the word might be?)

syntactic cues (what kind of word could it be, for example, a noun or a verb?)

semantic cues (what word would make sense here, based on the context?)

"horse and pony are essentially the same word" oh my god america is stupid to it's fucking core

She would explain to teachers at every opportunity that explicitly

teaching children about the relationships between sounds and

letters is essential to ensure all kids get off to a good start in

reading. But she got tons of pushback from teachers. "They didn't

want to teach phonics!" she recalled in frustration.

When I asked him what he makes of the cognitive science research, he told me he thinks scientists focus too much on word recognition.
He still doesn't believe accurate word recognition is necessary for reading comprehension.
"Word recognition is a preoccupation," he said. "I don't teach word recognition. I teach people to make sense of language. And learning the words is incidental to that."
He brought up the example of a child who comes to the word
"horse" and says "pony" instead. His argument is that a child will still understand the meaning of the story because horse and pony are the same concept.
I pressed him on this. First of all, a pony isn't the same thing as a horse. Second, don't you want to make sure that when a child is learning to read, he understands that /p/ /o//n//y/ says "pony"?
And different letters say "horse"?
He dismissed my question.
"The purpose is not to learn words," he said. "The purpose is to make sense."

Goodman rejected the idea that you can make a distinction between skilled readers and unskilled readers; he doesn't like the value judgment that implies. He said dyslexia does not exist - despite lots of evidence that it does. 52 And he said the three-cueing theory is based on years of observational research. In his view, three cueing is perfectly valid, drawn from a different kind of evidence than what scientists collect in their labs.
"My science is different," Goodman said.

trying to starve ppl out by taking away snap benefits strikes me as these ghouls want to manufacture crime by making ppl do desperate things to survive – a crime panic then "justifies" more carcerality, which feels like an overdetermined near-future

They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale.

Sherrilyn Ifill @sifill.bsky.social · 9d

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.

It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)
