Our government has recently suggested to remove history as a obligatory subject, and replace it with "Future-studies"
No this is not a joke.
Edit: to quote the new minister of education "(Geography, religion, history, nature-studies and social-studies) Are examples of lesser studies that are useful on an individual level, but we would rather prioritize studies that are more important to carry with themselves. In what we call a more suited future oriented study, we are bringing forward the aspect of democracy that we all will have use of. "
Complete drivel :stalin-bummed:
This is what happens when you keep rotating out ministers of education who also introduced stuff like the 10% absence limit and removed school fruit. :yes-honey-left:
we are bringing forward the aspect of democracy that we all will have use of. "
WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN
I'm so confused I got legit mad
It's empty platitudes from our weird conservative government, that's what it really means.
Stemlord education ministers is a change of pace from the "We need to teach the children to be proud of their history" kind that seems to be popping up everywhere.
At the same time, they changed our religion studies to "Christian religious studies" not so long ago, so they are kinda taking pieces of from both Stemlordism and the conserving our culture stuff.
Work went hella fast today, we love to see it, we love when the best we can hope for is that our alienated time passes so quickly we hardly remember it, leaving blank voids between stress filled "leisure" hours half-spent worrying about or preparing for the next day of the cycle :agony-deep:
I need a vacation
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck off
I just got an email back for an interview about a new job that I really want. Send me your good vibes because I interview on Wednesday :big-cool:
:heart-sickle: :stalin-heart: I hope it goes well comrade!
Well, I helped with a trans thingy today, idk how much I actually helped though. But I'm pretty sure i atleast in someway helped two other trans people at it. I also got a skirt from it! I'm really exhausted now though, volunteering is hard.
how big of a fan of all the notifications from the megathread are you?
it's pretty fun, right? :sicko-jammin:
I posted the megathread a couple times back on the sub and I ended up staying up til like 5 am trying to respond to every notif
Good times :comfy:
The megathreads on the sub got wild during certain times, 1000s of comments an hour during a big event like a debate or a protest.
When this is all over, I’m going to keep wearing the mask, and behind that, disdain and superciliousness
Own your bad takes and learn from them. We are all :LIB:s here. Learning is process that never ends.
yeah, about the israeli gov cracking down on a palestinian general strike in responce to an israeli land grab of palestinian lands
US Americans (lib, conservative, and apolitical alike) will talk about how the genocide of native americans was "regrettable", maybe even "kinda bad". But they won't go as far as to call the genocide and theft of the land "evil" or call the US or the settlers evil, because they will make all sorts of excuses about how it wasn't considered all that bad at the time and lots of other countries were doing colonialism then, etc etc. Or do what Blinken did in Alaska and talk about how that's all in the past now so it's irrelevant because reasons.
These are all very convenient positions to take now that the frontier is closed, the native populations have been fully subdued and their numbers decimated, and white Americans basically have everything they wanted. I am 100% certain that if this wasn't the case today - if there was still desirable land to grab from native inhabitants in 2021 - white Americans would find a way to rationalize away the continued theft and genocide.
thinking of doing a bit where I spread the idea that society was better when we shit in outhouses and that bathrooms are a liberal agenda and seeing if I get any traction with conservatives.
Connect this with the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation toilets projects and I can see it possibly working.
No poop air inside living spaces, society has progressed past the poop air in living spaces
My coworkers are talking about the suez canal blockage as if it’s still an ongoing situation :sicko-wistful: they’re also indirectly advocating for the belt and road initiative :xi-pog:
oh did they fix that? i've been really unplugged and assumed it was still wedged in there
there's still significant congestion due to the lack of movement on both sides for six days
I mean sure that's great, but I liked it when they were all shidding their pants like :oh-shit: what do we do
When cat sitting, I saw that my neighbor has a book about Margaret Thatcher. :cringe:
Poor kitty.
