      You got to face it, you’re either famous enough to ignore social media or that outcast friend that has no idea what anybody’s doing because no one communicates to their friend circles any other way.

        Nah, some of us actually talk to our friends instead of casting bullshit in to the ether expecting people to pick up on it. Why? Because we’re not so full of ourselves as to expect people to follow our every move.

          For somebody who communicates to all of his friends in person and doesn’t cast bullshit around you’re doing a pretty good job at casting bullshit around on social media right now.

          I’m so grateful that you speak from a great, intimate knowledge of my friends and me.

          Please accept this block as a token of my sincerest appreciation of your self-centeredness.

            Bro…look what you wrote, then their response, then your response. Read it again. You should probably block yourself.

              I reread it, there’s nothing there to elicit that response. But hey! I have a block for you too! My feed just looks better every day I block people being ignorant. You should block me too, then we don’t have to worry about being a blight on each others days.

              Have a good one!

      Yeah. Not only can you ignore social media RIGHT NOW, it’s quite possible the only way we save any part of humanity is to convince enough people to do just that.

        I mean, this isn’t a very social social media platform lol.

        I have zero real friends on here.

        Wait, maybe it is like social media.

        I think content-first social media like forums is far less bad than user-first like Twitter, Instagram, etc.

            On Twitter and Instagram you follow users. That’s user-first. You go there to see what so-and-so is saying, regardless of if it’s about cats or politics or their dinner plans.

            Reddit, lemmy, and traditional web forums are content first. You go to the video games subforum to talk about games, and the sports forum to talk about sports. You often don’t even read the user names. You’re there for the content.

            User-first stuff tends to incentivize bad behavior, I think. It becomes more about who’s saying it than what’s said.

              I don’t necessarily think it inherently incentivizes bad behavior, it’s just a different media paradigm. Think of bands promoting albums and shows, celebrities doing celebrity things, charitable accounts, etc. I can see what you’re saying with extremist wackos spewing their bullshit though, but that becomes a bit of a blanket. Different people come online for different purposes, and your average rando typically just wants to see cat videos and family photos.

        It’s not social media if your accounts aren’t doxxable in either direction. People who know me in person and know I’m on Lemmy wouldn’t be able to figure out which account is mine, and people who encounter my account on Lemmy wouldn’t be able to figure out who I am out in the real world.

      It doesn’t hurt elementary school aged children and having them move their chairs back and forth requires potentially chaotic transitions (kids get distracted, they hurt each other or themselves with the chairs, and there’s a bunch of noise that can distract other classrooms). The desks add a level of separation and distance that makes it hard to do some activities, like reading a story to the kids, and young kids really benefit from a transition between activities (we all do, but it’s more important the younger your learning group), which moving to a different part of the classroom creates.

      Where I’m from, it’s also common to have kids circle up and do light calisthenics or stretching throughout the day to even out their energy levels, so this could be a stage immediately beforehand or afterwards.

      Size-wise they look like high schoolers, but the classroom looks like it’s for young primary school students.
