step one to overcoming social anxiety is to realize that most people kind of suck and their opinion of you is literally worthless

PSA to make sure that you're always feeding your bird an appropriate and nutritious diet, even if that means rethinking their current one!

we are in a media literacy crisis

[jactingjoices-deactivated202406]

friendly reminder that characters don't need to be saints to be entertaining. and telling a story does not mean endorsement. art does not need to be all about morally good people.

IDK if this was meant as hyperbole but it's literally true:

Adult literacy is low.

Child literacy is low.

Information literacy has shifted dramatically in the last decade, but reputable information sources like research journals and factual news reporting have been unable to keep pace.

We are genuinely in a crisis of media literacy, with ever fewer genuinely factual resources available in the style and language used by contemporary audiences.

It may sound condescending, but we genuinely need to remind people, or worse, explain to them for the first time that art is not evidence of real world behaviour.

So, thank you, for this reminder. Genuinely.

You're correct:

Art does not need to feature exclusively morally pure characters. Art is not proof of the creator's secret, violent desires.

Redditors are so annoying and contrarian. They'll see a screenshot someone posted of a 100 word half-joking political tweet and be like "but uhm aktually 🤓 this tweet fails to consider x and y and is *wrong* and here's several paragraphs to explain why" and like BRO you're acting like you're responding to a multi page essay and not something someone typed up in like 2 minutes

Why did I say corner unturned instead of stone unturned why did I imagine corner checking in first person shooters when I typed that

i think people need to stop glorifying sassiness and bitterness and start promoting the idea of actually being fucking nice and civil to people who did nothing to you.
