If you're teaching something like a historical period, especially for kids, and you're involving crafts in the lesson plan, I think you should have to have the students make the actual thing the people in the past would have made, not some cardboard approximation.

Sure, make a simplified, beginner-friendly version of it. Weave one little square, and then explain "This is what they would have done all day to make all their clothes." Plant and water a few little seeds, and explain "People did this with whole fields." Carve a little stick, and explain "People carved whole tools and furniture and equipment."

That kind of activity -- giving people a little taste of what kinds of work people in some past time would have done -- can be educational and give key insight into what people's lives were like.

But you are not learning anything from lego castles and aluminum foil armor and pipe cleaners and construction paper. You're learning crafting, not history.

It's been wild to have multiple people who deny the genocide of Palestinians, or deny that it is ongoing, like one of the comments i made on a post. like....guys. you don't agree with me at ALL but it's hilarious that you're liking my comments. free blocklist for meee :3 anyways! restating my opinions in case this changes anyone's mind about me: Free Palestine. the genocide is ongoing, the ceasefire has been violated so many times by Israel. I don't believe Hamas' crimes are on the same level as Israel's against Palestinians (since i've seen so many people posting 'oh but Hamas killed 5 Palestinians' yeah ok well Israel has killed 60,000 so what are we doing). And if you're looking for someone who is completely biased and doesn't have nuance on resistance movements and how people come to join a terrorist organization against a 'country' that is literally killing them, yeah not the blog for you! I am very much anti-zionist, and yes, educated on what zionism is. I don't believe ANYONE is inherently evil based on religion, country of origin or political beliefs. And i consistently speak out against antisemitism, both in my own family, friend groups and the world, ESPECIALLY my own 'country', the US. It's a topic i very much speak out against, just like any other bigotry. I don't believe Israel as the right to exist and i don't believe the United States has the right to exist. I am for land back for indigenous groups across the world and for right to return for Palestinians.

anyways!!! i don't argue with people i disagree with unless they directly talk to me, i typically block and move on. I would suggest you (general) do the same. if you deny ANY genocide, or deny that a current one isn't ongoing, i will block. If you're a self-proclaimed zionist, i will block (i understand there is nuance but the political movement from the 1800s and the modern day belief i am very much against). If i see any 'antizionism is antisemitism', i will block. If you believe Israel has a right to exist, i will block. ANY level of racism or antisemitism or islamophobia, i will block SO FAST.

So difficult to withhold the eyeroll when people say things like, "My body was designed for this" wrt childbirth or whatever, because even if I accept the premise that our bodies were designed, I have to imagine mine was designed with the most basic function of breathing in mind, and yet I had childhood asthma and would have died without intervention so idk if I'm trusting my "designer" with something as physically traumatic and historically deadly as childbirth

why is everything doing a "wrapped" now? why are you self admitting to storing my data and then presenting it back to me like we are having fun. discord and youtube and whatever else do not need a wrapped

[sol1loqu1st]

I feel like all the "they broke weird al" "weird al got serious we're so cooked" comments about the killing in the name cover are missing the point. that is not a broken man. comedy is politics. comedy has always been politics. weird al has been satirizing politics for a long time because he knows the court jester can say to the king what other people can't. by doing a serious cover of an explicitly anti-establishment song that his gen x and millennial audience knows by heart when he's built his career on parody, he's saying this can't be satirized anymore and he's saying it in a very deliberate way that his audience will understand. those aren't the actions of a broken man, they're the actions of a man who is trying to tell you something. are we going to listen?

i cannot emphasize how much it sucks that people in movies don’t look real anymore. like conventionally attractive people have always been cast more as leads but up until like a decade ago they had visible age lines and textured skin and double chins and imperfect teeth. like whenever i’m feeling insecure i just have to watch a regular movie from the 70s and remind myself that im actually not unhygienic and disgusting for having teeth that are a little yellow and visible pores

(The Cradle)

Israeli forces raided the city of Tubas in the occupied West Bank, distributing warning leaflets that their online activity is being monitored in what appeared to be an effort to intimidate Palestinians into silence and prevent them from speaking out against the occupation, or exposing Israeli crimes on social media.

The leaflet reads:

"We are monitoring what you do online. Disseminating, writing, or publishing inciting content online is considered a terrorist crime in every sense and may lead to arrest or imprisonment, as has happened in this house. We have warned you."
