jk I'm all about that bread @danishcookies@computerfairi.es

It's so long ago now that I don't remember the details, but...
when my sisters reached the ages of constant questions of "Why? How?", etc, I decided to answer those questions not with short fact-snippets, but to instead point out how and where they could find the answers themselves,
which for example of course lead to wanting to learn to read and thus they could already read by the time they started first grade,
but instead of e.g. boring hours of tracing the shape of the letter "A" on a paper in classroom-unison, they did it because they wanted to have the information that I had shown were in books though those letters.

Making knowledge desired play instead of an arduous chore to cheat past in order to be allowed to play.

I believe the best and natural form of education is to simply let children keep playing until they find forms of play that interest them so much they want to learn more about it themselves,
then just ensure materials (incl but not limited to books) are available at their own pace,
then sometimes just slightly nudge to make the person interested in adjacent topics too so that those will grow to include topics they previously had no interest in.
That way, any topic can be made to light the way for interest in core topics of reading, maths and language as well as methodology for finding more knowledge on their own.

I think this much better, especially long term, than pushing every person to forcibly shape them into exact-same shaped blocks for further processing and only much later add possibility of making own choices of directions (like, only really as late as at university).

man, it's so crazy to think that Earth has two moons that look exactly the same and are never in the sky at the same time

@nuttgodd that’s the money shot

@nuttgodd ropes of rage

@nuttgodd problematic? no, if anything it's extreme praxis

@nuttgodd no it's direct action

The concept of beauty is tied up in who has the "correct" gender presentation, skin tone, an able body, and other factors of oppression.

The concept of intelligence is tied to who has the "right" culture, dialect, neurotype, etc.

The concept of productivity places ability above disability, ranks some activities above others, and positions the work itself above people.

No matter how much you expand the meaning of who beautiful, who is intelligent, who is productive, there will still be folks left out. Free yourself as much as you can from these ideas. Break out of this by loving and accepting ugliness, stupidity, and laziness!
