Well, fuck. Revoking any and all Peripeteia recommendations (and I wish I could un-back it on Kickstarter) based on the very thinly veiled transphobia from the dev (the first one in the screenshots here).
I hate this.

Acquaintance grabbed these screencaps. Idk if it's getting purged.
"Second stage is people rejecting conspiracy discourse" is genuinely hilarious, I gotta teach em a little about Yakub and maybe they'll change their tune

This knowledge is on par with microplastics in its level of devastation
![Screenshot of the article linked in the original post:
'The text said: "My little dog likes to eat with me."
But Rodney said: "My dog likes to lick his bone."
[photo of a children picture book featuring an illustration of a little black girl seated next to a dog that is licking a bone, words on the opposite page read "my little dog likes to eat with me."]
Rodney breezed right through it, unaware that he hadn't read the sentence on the page.
Goldberg realized lots of her students couldn't actually read the words in their books; instead, they were memorizing sentence patterns and using the pictures to guess. One little boy exclaimed, "I can read this book with my eyes shut!"
"Oh no," Goldberg thought. "That is not reading."'](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ri6qrw72xecygdo6qzr5tzbk/bafkreiaj7thfybyyprqi75gfiesym2nprzoxmzrpffwl5lvozlgprc7fji@jpeg)

I've been seeing this headline floating around. To be clear:
1) This is "No. 1" on a miniscule chart, The "Country Digital Song Sales" chart, as in people actually paying money to download country songs which is a tiny amount of people
2) The actual consumers are almost certainly fake

some millionaire convinced himself he wasn't dyslexic and should destroy phonics-based education and this is where we are now
I have no idea how long this "whole language learning" thing has been around, but I watch a few (American) gaming YouTubers and if they're reading an item/ability description or a dialog text box out loud they'll often get about 3-4 words in and then just start making stuff up.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

This is actually the original definition of emotional labor, as defined by Arlie Hochschild, the sociologist who coined the term. It refers to the labor of performing emotions in order to do your job. It is not enough to just do your job, you have to put on a performance
There is something really wrong with people who need workers to be not just competent, but slavishly fake-happy. "Slavishly" used on purpose, bc that's where this grotesquerie comes from.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
