He talks as if he’s an expert on the subject despite the fact he’s a college dropout. He possesses no medical degree or expertise. He’s certainly not a virologist. Ben. Ben, you don't listen to the virologists and doctors.

My side hustle is tutoring kids who need help with their reading and writing skills. Games that I have used for various kids of various ages and skill levels: Mad-Libs Scrabble Hangman Matching letters A game I made up with a kindergartener that doesn't have a name but involves thinking of all the words we can that start with a random letter and then making them together into a very silly nonsense sentence about blue bees blowing blueberry bubbles Crossword puzzles Word searches Snakes and ladders with words you have to read on the squares or you go back a space

Murdstone posted:This is like 90s-era racist bitching. The few occasions I've had to use the phone to talk to call some customer service line and it did language options, it's always just English and someone comes on in Spanish briefly and says something I always assumed was "Press 1 for Spanish" then goes on in English but technically I don't know what they're saying in Spanish during that brief time so maybe they're passing Great Replacement messages from Soros. Meanwhile, my whole life, "pour le service en français, faites le deux." These people out here thinking that something that doesn't even inconvenience them but helps other people who are not them is some sort of terrible imposition. It's loving weird.

MechaCrash posted:Hell, I still remember when Angelina Jolie got a double mastectomy because her family had a history of breast cancer and other risk factors (the article I found while trying to remember exactly who it was has a quote where she said the cancer chance was eighty loving seven percent, and people were all "how dare you" over it. I remember that being in the news, and thinking "oh god I wish that were me." This is very normal and cis of me. quote:While many praised the actress for her courage and public service, others worried that her actions might prompt, as Time put it, a “stampede of women” asking to be screened for a faulty BRCA gene mutation – an expensive prospect considering genetic testing can run from several hundred to several thousand dollars. Others envisioned hoards of healthy but overly anxious women lining up to receive preventive mastectomies despite the fact they did not carry a gene mutation that upped their odds for breast cancer. And yet, I do not think that my internal experience in this is universal. Who the hell came to this conclusion?

I actually really enjoyed Strange Worlds. It's not amazing, but it's a solid little story about sustainability and generational trauma. 8/10? But I'm partial to depictions of the body as ecosystem. The teenage character does have a gay love interest (and is supported by his parents) but this is barely relevant to the theme of the movie and it's mostly used as one of several ways of showing the father's eager but embarrassingly inept attempts to bond with his son on his terms without taking his son's interests and comfort levels into account.

VitalSigns posted:Literally eating babies is what you make a villain do in a bad movie to let the audience know which person to hate, and conservatives think TV and movies are real. Along this line, I heard a radio piece recently which was mostly about the satanic panic around D&D, but the speaker offered an idea that has been living rent free in my brain ever since. His idea is that it's very important to practice imagination, because imagining the world other as it is allows you to imagine ways to change it, or pretending to be someone else can help you gain insight on yourself. But the flip side of that is that if you grow up in an environment where imagination is discouraged or dismissed as "escaping from reality" or even, as in some very evangelical Christian sects, seen as dangerous (if you imagine a demon then a real demon will come and get you, therefore reading a book with a demon will put your soul in danger), then you grow up without ever having learned how to imagine something that isn't true. And then if you don't know how to entertain an idea that is not true, then it's harder to critically examine the truth of your beliefs and reject what is false, and it's very easy to fall into conspiracy thinking because whatever you can think of must therefore be real. My mother grew up partly in a very conservative religious environment (salvation army; honestly she is still unpacking a lot of that) and the other day I shared this with her and I got a whole lot of stuff in return about her childhood that I'd never heard because this resonated so much with how she was taught to behave and think.

Crunch Buttsteak posted:There's a whole book analyzing this phenomenon and the Christian backlash to D&D, Dangerous Games by Joseph Laycock, that I'd recommend you check out. It's a really dense academic book with a lot of takeaways, but one of them is that American Evangelicals get really uncomfortable with the concept of someone only acting as if they believe something in a fictional context, for this exact reason. I can handle dense academia. I'll check it out, thanks!

I skimmed the rant because I didn't know who this was, and this jumped out at me: Garrison posted:Tester, who misses three fingers on his left hand, claims to represent “Montana values.” How are these two ideas related, Ben? Did you mean to sound like missing fingers are inherently related to his lack of Montana Values, or is this just how badly your writing is organised? Why bring up the missing fingers at all? What a weird non sequitur. Also, of course the politician is a multimillionaire, which is bad when it's true about people I don't like, but they usually are because that's who has the money to run big budget campaigns. That's the system. That's how the system works.
