As someone who ran track and cross country for 4 years in high school, this always fucking mystified me the most out of all the insane shit PE had us do.

Track and field club taught all new runners how to properly warm up, stretch, pace, etc. Its a process, and doing it properly takes 15-20 minutes to make sure your body is ready so you dont hurt yourself.

PE didnt do jack shit, they just said "go run a mile" so 70% of the fucking kids sprinted flat out the first lap and basically walked the other 3. Multiple people did it in boots or tennis shoes. I'm amazed more of them didnt pull a muscle or worse in the process.

I dont know what the purpose of PE was, but it sure as shit wasnt proper exercise. And I think a lot of people suffered for that. If they spent the time teaching us about the importance of physical health, proper nutrition, how to safely stretch/exercise, etc, we would all be better off now.

Let's be real, PE exists to shame and torture the fat kids, and for pretty much no other reason.

[genderfluid-and-confuzled]

*Insert that thing with all the people who dread gym*

[homemade-potato]

this one?

[sea-glass-and-fire]

the purpose of PE, as it currently exists in the American school system, is to prepare kids to join the military. that's not some sort of moral-panic hyperbole. that's...pretty explicitly the purpose.

most of the prominently nightmarish features of PE, such as running the mile or doing sit-ups, originate with the Presidential Fitness Test. This test, which president Eisenhower implemented in schools in 1956, was created after a different fitness test (the Kraus-Weber test) revealed that Americans were less fit than Europeans -- specifically the Swiss.

The difference between the Kraus-Weber test and the Presidential Fitness test is that the Presidential Fitness test was specifically designed to test military fitness. While the Kraus-Weber test measured total fitness by testing things like core strength and flexibility, the Presidential Fitness test doesn't really make much sense in the context of ordinary fitness -- only in the context of military fitness. Do you remember being tested on how far you could throw a softball? That test mimicked throwing grenades. And it's pretty easy to see why Eisenhower went this direction. In 1956, the Cold War was in full swing and WWII was barely in the rear-view mirror. There was a real possibility that we would be at war with parts of super-fit Europe in the near future. Eisenhower wanted the nation's children ready to fight in that war.

The main issue with the Presidential Fitness test is that, as pointed out above, it really doesn't teach kids how to stay fit or incorporate physical activity in their day-to-day lives. A soldier at war might need to run a mile with no warm-up, or perform a pull-up, but for the average middle-schooler? The tests were just kind of...pointless exercises in misery. You're only really good at the Presidential Fitness Test if you've been practicing the specific exercises tested. And what 12 year old child is doing pull-ups for fun and pleasure? So instead of inspiring America's children to train themselves into a super-fit army, it just humiliated kids who didn't perform well.

There's been a recent push for PE classes to focus more on life-long fitness (things like actually teaching kids to warm up, exposing them to different types of physical activity, etc). Unfortunately, the Presidential Fitness test has already done its damage. It continued to be used in schools until 2013. That's 60 years of teaching kids to associate physical activity with shame and dread. The idea of military PE classes is pretty much baked into our cultural memory, giving us all a background dread of physical activity. and guess what, eisinhower?? that's just going to make people less likely to be physically active!! Maybe if we're trying to emulate the fitness of the SWISS, we shouldn't have gone with MILITARY TRAINING FOR CHILDREN!!

anyways. take some comfort in the fact that nobody will ever judge you for your mile time again. and if they try, ask to see them run a mile. directly away from you.

btw dating sucks as a concept.

[tongue-twists]

meeting up with someone with the explicit goal of figuring out whether or not you want a relationship with them spoils the dynamic. it sucks. it's terrible. fall in love with your friends like normal people.

to be real with ya, there was some horrible shit going on with the game where the devs lost the rights to their own fucking game and got absolutely screwed over. would recommend just like not buying it and getting it through...other means (YARRRR) i can...assist with that if you need to

[blufoxstar]

random question but you ever try disco elysium? it might be up your alley. other than it being a story driven game, this assumption is based upon just a guess. but also because i absolutely love the game

It's been on my list for a long time because I also think it would be up my alley. I love a story driven game and a flawed protagonist. But, I almost always end up picking something else when I pick a new game up because I remember there being some controversy around the development of the game. Also because I don't know enough about the game to know whether to buy original or final cut, and I'm always hesitant to look into these questions too much because I know it's a game I would want to play without too many spoilers.

I’ll be real the internet archive taking shit down because of these companies only makes me more motivated to wanna pirate and avoid shit from them LOL. Internet archive my beloved they will never take you down

Right? Archives and Libraries play such an important role in societies to help preserve and share knowledge/information and culture and so on, so I'm always going to be on the side of something like this, especially when the people going against it are huge companies. I think it would be a little different if it was like an independent writer or artist who had an issue with something like this, but that's so rarely the case.

[akajustmerry]

important to note than there are also gofundmes for Palestinians who need funds to rebuild their homes and businesses that need as much attention as gofundmes for those fleeing genocide. I feel like helping Palestinians shouldn't be synonymous with displacement.

[blufoxstar]

If it’s not too personal of a question, what class did you have to read the disability visibility book for?

I don't want to go into specifics because it was a pretty unique class and I try to remain as private as I can in online spaces. But it was an upper college level course.

[mioxenoblade]

Captions shouldn't be censored. If the video says fuck or cum or cunt the captions should say the fucking word.

[dancing-jestress]

Unless it's a slur! No one needs to see that.

[mioxenoblade]

If they say a slur in the video, the captions should reflect it. The disabled are not little babies who have to have life sanitized for them.

[sunbummonkey]

okay but I feel like ur forgetting that slurs don't just apply to the disabled... children don't need to be seeing the n-word or other racial slurs??

[mioxenoblade]

but children DO need to be hearing it? are you actually reading the post here?

[pixelartpeach]

Here's how it works when subtitles are done properly:

Audio: Let's BEEP go! Subtitle: Let's (censor tone) go!

Audio: Let's fucking go! Subtitle: Let's fucking go!

Removing swears and slurs from the subtitles without removing it from the audio is implying that deaf/HoH people need babying, unlike their hearing friends and family sitting right next to them. Which is frustrating.

The point of subtitles is to give the same experience to everyone watching, regardless of ability—not to be a more palatable version of what's being said.

[fandomsandfeminism]

The purpose of subtitles/captions is to be accurate, that's all.

[blufoxstar]

Check out this brief overview of a court ruling that has forced the internet archive to remove a shit ton of books (they're currently trying to appeal the decision) and there's another link at the end to sign a petition.

Last year, publishers Hachette, HarperCollins, Penguin Random House, and Wiley sued the Internet Archive for copyright infringement. The pub

First and foremost I believe in open access, but also the argument that publishers are making that a resource like the internet archive cuts into their profits is absurd. When people utilize a free service like this it's often because they don't have the funds to do otherwise, or weren't interested enough to pay for it in the first place. Those people were never going to pay for the product, and thus there is no loss of revenue.
