and i think about the function of coolness in this sense, for white kids, as a way of encouraging this sort of wasted energy to redirect them away from work which would actually force them to confront their privilege

all of the useful skills i have learned have been through the process of needing to do a thing and having to learn how to do it, and very very little of that was ever supported nay discussed in school

i wasted huge amounts of time early in college taking classes aligned with my “interests” that i had no actual interest in applying, instead of learning about systemic injustice and the problems in the world which i actually cared about getting solved

i was just thinking about a history report i wrote in seventh grade about assassins because i thought assassins were rad and what if i had been instead encouraged to study a history topic which was at all practically relevant or meaningful in my life

can’t help but feel like there would be a lot fewer nft bros

imagining a world where white kids were encouraged to study things which they think are necessary instead of things which they think are cool

« EARN-IT is an attack on section 230, which is the law that makes online platforms able to host user-posted material, and it does so in a way that allows U.S. states – many of which can be influenced by powerful anti-LGBTQ+ lobbying groups – to define what constitutes a visual depiction of CSAM » feel like OTW could have gone a liiiiitttle harder on why exactly this is a problem today
