A Mark On Your Forehead Identifies The God You Must Worship To Stay Alive, Usually By Joining Its Local

I remember reading in the linked article that this new methodology was based off of flawed research that basically emulated the way low-level readers read (e.g. compensating strategies) instead of how high-level readers did.

You know what was the craziest thing I learned from being married to a teacher? Not that the kids are watching porn and sexually harassing teachers and other students, though that's definitely bad. It's the fact that children cannot read anymore. And it's not like, some of them. 90% of her FIFTH GRADERS cannot read. She writes shit on the board but they can't fucking read it. They don't teach PHONICS anymore, they do this bullshit whole-word reading, and the result is that kids can't sound things out. They literally don't know how to read. This is horrifying to me. They also have no critical thinking abilities and don't even try to do any tasks before deciding they don't know how and it's too hard, like on a level incomprehensible to me. Like she tells me these things and it makes me think like, there's no way the general public is aware of this, right? If you aren't a teacher or a parent you must not know about this. So I am telling you. Watch some teacher tik toks. Read the teachers subreddit. Be aware. Because I'm genuinely very scared of what is going to happen over the next few years. This is fr not good.

This article is from 2019 but it talks about the issue, and touches on the two teaching methodologies

Everything We Know About Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2

Admiral Janeway and the Protostar kids will be back.

So Star Trek Prodigy is an absolutely excellent show full of heart, wonderful storytelling, endearing characters, beauitful art and music, and a great balance of episodic and overarching storytelling that many of us have wanted Star Trek to find! Also there are some fun throwbacks that feel mostly purposeful and thought out and not too gratuitous! Lovely season 1, highy recommend to any Trek fan and hoping there will be a season 2!

I love the tf fandom and everyone in it so fucking much I can’t fucking stand it.  If there was ever a solid argument for trapping yourself in a flesh prison to slowly die over the next 100 years, it’s being able to exist on the same planet as you people.

Thank you for being alive you brilliant insane assholes

List of Star Trek species who know about baseball due to Captain Benjamin Sisko

Prophets: Sisko used baseball to explain the concept of linear time to them.

Ferengi: Quark learned about baseball to examine potential business opportunities.

Unidentified imagination aliens: One of them took the form of a baseball player based on Sisko’s interests.

Trill: Dax is an old friend of Sisko’s, they probably learned about it during life as Curzon, then definitely learned about it as Jadzia.

Cardassian: Possibly. I’m assuming that during the Dominion occupation of DS9, Gul Dukat at least took thirty seconds to learn what the baseball was for.

Vorta: If Gul Dukat bothered to learn, he probably rambled about it to Weyoun while drunk. If not, all Vorta field commanders are required to read Sisko’s psychographic profile. Baseball is in that thing somewhere.

Jem’Hadar: Guards were present during the exchange of an antique baseball card which Jake Sisko wanted to procure for his father.

Bajoran: Kira accompanied Sisko to a holosuite game, later learned to play when brought in by Sisko for his team.

Klingon: Through Worf, same circumstances as Kira.

Vulcan: Captain Solok and at least a team’s worth of his Vulcan crew learned the game in order to play against the Niners.

Changelings: Odo learned the rules in order to be the umpire, that knowledge would’ve been transferred to Laas and later the rest of the Founders when he returned to them. Every Founder now knows how to play baseball in excessive detail.

Because of Sisko, baseball knowledge extends across the galaxy and beyond the boundaries of time.

倒序词：Inverted/Palindromic Words

I’m sure you’ve noticed in your Chinese studies that there are some words for which you can switch the order of the characters and get a new word! In Chinese these can be called 倒序词. I’ve put together a list of 20 倒序词 pairs, most of which I’ve stumbled across over the past couple years. It’s so interesting to see the relationships between the words! Most example sentences are via Pleco.
