To me, that’s just a difference in how people learn things in general. Some people will learn better from watching a tutorial, some people learn from reading instructions and some learn by fiddling around until they figure it out. The best way to figure out how to educate someone is to figure out how they learn things. Not everybody’s brains work the same way and that’s just true for everyone regardless of age.

I prefer joots

There was an episode of The Girls Next Door in the early 00s where they go to the Renaissance Faire and they had someone teaching them words from that era and one of them was Sausage Wallet and it cracked me up back then and still does to this day.

I got red shirt Nicole 6 days ago

I need an adult.

That person is simultaneously saying that if Harris won, they would have lost while also saying that whoever is in office wouldn’t affect them.

Pop up ads in the early internet days are what made me not ever want to click on an ad. Regular people must have missed that era of Internet.

Is anyone else just enjoying seeing people create actual user names again and not just using the automatically generated ones reddit has done for awhile?

What about hot dogs? Beanie weenies are pretty good.

I think what also plays into it is apathetic doctors. People go to the doctor for help, if they have a doctor that doesn’t actually care about helping them and only spends a couple minutes with them before getting shooed out the door, this causes people to seek alternative forms of medicine. Another thing that happens is the doctor comes up with a treatment plan and insurance denies it. So once again, this is something that would cause people to seek alternative medicine. They get desperate for a fix for whatever problem ails them and the snake oil salesmen are right there ready and waiting for them on TikTok/Instagram/Facebook.

So between apathetic doctors and rising medical costs along with fear mongering on social media about medications being “poison” and natural cures being better, oh and let’s also add in there easily gullible idiots, you get where we’re at today.

Sometimes I just don’t understand human behavior.

I think I saw that exchange yesterday. Was it the person that absolutely freaked out over another user being called a male term? (I can’t remember exactly what it was, I want to say “son” but I don’t think that was it). I use Voyager and I don’t see profile pictures or even any descriptions on people’s profiles. I didn’t even know that existed until that person was freaking out and calling everyone transphobes for not knowing.

I really got hung up on the “reuse” part of reduce, reuse, recycle.
