My class dissected fish. But when the teacher collected them that morning from the fishery they apparently weren't paying much attention.
Warm water fish tossed into an ice chest will go into shock.
They will come out of that shock when warming up on a table. Under the hands and knives of students.
Students will scream when they suddenly realize their dissection is now a vivisection.

I taught a marine science class and the first dissecting we did was blue crabs. Around here you go to the store and pull out live ones with tongs.
I looked up how to euthanize them, and one source said an hour in the freezer should do it. Then I moved them to the fridge overnight.
Cut to external anatomy portion, and a kid pipes up "Uh, mine moved.."
Oh, probably a muscle reaction, it happens.
"No, it's moving"
"Ours, too"
Of the four crabs, three revived. I rigged up salt water in an empty tank and put them in there. The class had to gather around the remaining crab, but it went over well.
The survivors were shown mercy and put back in the river.
I now wear one of these on my lab coat

There's a news article I can't find right now about why the population in Russia is declining, and it basically boils down to "we've been taught our entire lives through government policy and state-run media that we're not worth anything, so gently caress it, we're not worth anything". It's pretty depressing, actually.

Ah, so America and Russia DO have something in common

�Though that actually contradicts what I know about Russia. Both of my parents are Russian and spend pretty much all their free time watching RT and poo poo. They�re both extremely oorah-nationalistically proud of being Russian and are convinced that Russians are all the best, greatest, kindest, most competent and capable (not to mention most humble) people on the planet who can do no wrong. Maybe it�s different actually in Russia, but at the very least their exposure to state-run media has only made their egos bigger

I would suggest that it is possible to watch nationalistic media put out by a country and also cotton on to the subtext that the nationalists only care about their idea of the country and their idea of the right sort of people.

Presumably if you watched Fox or read UK tabloids you probably would not feel very much like the people behind them care a lot about you, however cum stained their flags are.

Is this actually a formula for something or just an awesome rhyme? That's pretty cool. =D

My dad taught me a short rhyme for the resonant frequency of an electric circuit (?)

f_r = 1/ (2ℼ √LC)
"One over two pi root L C
Is the resonant frequency."

I've remembered this since he taught it to me at, like, 8 years old, and have never used it nor known what the resonant frequency of a circuit is. =D

The school I used to work for, a small charter middle/high school with ~200 students, did some sort of tobacco awareness grant program, from which we got some grant money (promptly spent on other poo poo, I assume) and various instructional materials (anti-smoking posters and stuff). And so one day, I get a text from one of the administrators that some science-adjacent stuff has arrived, and she has no idea what it is, and can I take a look?

There's a bunch of boxes, and I inventory it, and we've got twelve complete kits for this demo, as if you're going to give one to every two or three kids in a standard size class (we did not have standard size classes). as if we would ever let the students touch the lungs, and not just do, like, one demo done by the teacher.

So I text her back and say, "we've got twenty-four sheep's lungs," and me and the other guy who was helping me look through it got a hearty laugh at her reaction. Fun times. Never had to do the demo, fortunately; the pandemic happened soon after.

Where did they find sheep with a pack-a-day habit?

That's why Japan and Denmark and so on have a disproportionate number of surgeons and engineers and concert cellists while America has like 5 people that went to public schools and became noteworthy for something besides sports.

Ah yes Japan, famous for producing high quality doctors and engineers, not just a rote learning system that kills off a shockingly high percentage of kids due to suicide from the stress.

In high school we had a weirdo science teacher who once brought in a dead Pidgeon that he'd found on the way to work and he then dissected it for us. He also once showed up to class wearing lederhosen because he was going to some October fest thing later.

Spotted this today. A lovely herpes evening.

"Shockingly high" compared to what? If we're comparing the examples from the previous post, Japan and the US, Japans child/teen suicide rate is like 600% lower than the US's per capita.

Gonna go out on a limb and guess access to guns might be a contributing factor. I wonder if the per capita attempt rate is close, but guns make it super easy to not gently caress up a suicide attempt.

The key issue gets overlooked: namely that neoliberalism has a massive hard-on for applied sciences. It (1) forces it onto kids who aren't interested/capable, and (2) teaches those who are to have a massive superiority complex / look down on anyone else. It doesn't matter at what age this is taught or how many years kids spend in general education programs, this ideology is pervasive everywhere. Applied science curriculums are the perfect high-end result of 19th century industrial education that wanted employable/exploitable labour, not critical thinkers, creatives or counselors.

marshmallow creep: Dec 10, 2008; I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

This derail has led to me learning that teen suicide is the only suicide statistic in Japan that's actually going up instead of down.

The country is getting better as a whole, but kids specifically are more likely to kill themselves. Motivations tend to be connected with bullying and abuse from teachers.
