oh look yet another warmed over “DAE the kids r bad” talking point that i’ve been hearing literally since i learned language.

this. milk is fucking disgusting.
it’s still a market, and “free” is still a price point
yes because having assigned reading material directly and specifically relevant to the subject of the class is exactly the same as registering for a website full of shitposts and propaganda bots. remember when you got all that spam from opening your textbook, and there was an entire chapter calling you out for being a little bitch?
that’s the stupidest comparison i’ve ever heard.
“hey there’s this thing called lemmy, check it out some time” <- leading a horse to water
“ok you have to register an account on lemmy, it’s part of your grade” <- shoving a hose down the horse’s throat and cranking the spigot
requiring my students to create Lemmy accounts
No. Nobody likes registering accounts for random services because an authority figure told them they had to, I feel like if it were me I would do the bare minimum of interacting that I was required to and never look at the service again out of resentment.
the joke is the guy bitching about illiteracy thinks 40 words is too much to read
native english speaker here, the joke comes across fine and I literally laughed out loud. people who try to police words/grammar/humor like the guy you’re replying to are pathetic losers and nobody likes them. keep making funnies in my language and i’ll keep laughing and upvoting them!
whine about literacy
proceed to call two sentences “a lot of words” and pretend it’s a lot to read
this guy desperately making an asshole of himself trying to troll people is funnier than the meme
i think you’re just salty that your inbox blew up with people telling you what an idiotic blowhard you sound like
linguistic prescriptivism is for weird losers bent on controlling others’ thoughts. the joke is fine, i think you’re upset about something else here.

“have you seen Mindless Action 7: Ultimate CG 3: The Reckoning yet?”
no, I don’t keep up with Marvel movies, they just don’t appeal to me.
“well it’s insert 30 minute lore dump and it ties into the ending of Space Hero Movie 3 because insert 20 minute side rant about Space Mask Guy’s entire history while also being an indirect sequel to Weird Magic Dude 6 because of when Weird Magic Dude altered the timeline by extended synopsis of Weird Magic Dude 2, 5, and 6 which ties into the Unremarkables Netflix series, that’s why indicipherable gibberish, and then The Bulk eats a car with Alien Skin Chin inside and Shrinky Dinky has to get him back out again! It’s amazing, you gotta see it!”
idk man i watched Metal Noggin and Space Hero Movie and didn’t really care for either of them, the genre just doesn’t appeal to me. i’m glad you have a thing you like but it’s not really my bag.
goes to internet “why are people so vocal about not liking marvel movies, as if we care?”.
The fiddle itself is a handicap too, gold is an awful material for an instrument.
right now mine has manjaro+cinnamon. i booted my wife’s Win11 laptop to it so she could test drive it and within ten minutes she was asking how to get to the installer. i hope to repeat this process with others as well.
I spent most of my 20s alone, and met the woman I married at age 33. It’s never too late.
“Gifted” education in the US means they burn us out with weird “critical thinking” extracirriculars and then berate us when the senioritis hits two years early.
I transferred schools in the middle of 10th grade, and the new Algebra class I landed in was several chapters ahead. I never caught up, but the teacher passed anyone who turned in literally anything for homework so I did that.
Now in my 30’s I’m getting into indie game design, and I need that gap filled so I can write the code I need. So I went to the local thrift shop and picked up a couple old textbooks (since it’s safe to assume that nothing groundbreaking has happened in the field of basic algebra in the past twenty years) for fifty cents and I’ve been working my way through them. I don’t understand everything that’s happening, but I’m pushing ahead with the faith that somewhere along the line things will “click”.
and here i’d been blissfully unaware of it for days now. damn you all.

who the hell calls rugby “rugger”? that’s even worse than “soccer”.
