This is part of what scares me. I’m not sure people are even against nuclear escalation in the way they were in the past. There’s a kind of “well, maybe we deserve it��� undertone. Fortunately, the people with their hands on the buttons all have multiple children, meaning they have a future to protect, but there may soon be a time when this is not so. Modernity may well be more dangerous than we imagined, and Eden’s Gate narrower.

i totally agree with you there.. i tried watching the dub for that reason and ended up quitting right in the middle of the series. took me a long time to watch it again.

yeah it's been like, years since i tried watching it. i don't remember where exactly i stopped, but i think i was pretty far in when i finally got fed up. we'll see what happens this time o.o

With FTL travel we will have to move to those planets to see the life that is there. We still won’t be able to see them with a telescope, unfortunately. =/

yeah that's exactly what i was saying

at the very least, telescopes and our other methods of detecting life can at least point us towards potentials, then we can travel TO the potentials and see if we find anything.

but again, that all depends on whether or not we reach FTL travel

Hey person! Hope you're doing well. I have exams this week and they are terrible but I hope yours is better than mine! Have a great week! -Secret Santa

Not so secret Santa anymore. Anyway, good luck with your exams.

That's not really the problem, either. The reason 3b1b is effective is not just because he's a gifted teacher; it's because the people watching his channel are people who actually have some interest in the material. If you gave Grant a class full of inner city gang kids reading at a 3rd-grade level who ignored his attempts at engagement, mocked him for being a nerd, and talked or sat on their phones all through his lessons, I'm fairly certain you'd see very different outcomes than you do with his current audience. The heart of the problem is the premise of compulsory education in the first place. The reality is the academically gifted will seek out the material of their own accord - and unlike in prior ages, everything is now freely available to anyone who wants it. For the hopeless masses, force-feeding them Euclid's theorems or the poetry of Keats and saying "don't you like it? Isn't it beautiful!" results in nothing more than annoyance and resentment for both teacher and student. The leftists are correct in casting the whole compulsory education paradigm as basically white-man's-burden colonialism. As such, if the Californians want to re-cast public education as a state-backed daycare + self-improvement service where everyone gathers in social clubs and pontificates about their lived experiences like some rehab group, then I say good on them. That sounds better than forcing traditional classroom structure on everyone under the ridiculous pretense that it's going to somehow turn the students into SpaceX engineers that will take humanity to Mars.

@dnkndnts "This is something I’ll definitely be looking into!"

I'm hoping this works as a reply ^^;? Apparently replies may have been broken as recent as a day or 2 ago, so sorry if this doesn't function correctly. Thank you very much! Hope you like how it develops :)

Edit: aaand it didn't, I think? Seriously no idea how this is meant to work, will just edit the above to make the original response I'm replying to more clear.

dnkndnts replied to your post:i don’t remember the naruto dub being this bad...

i have to watch it in japanese with subtitles. i couldn’t handle the dub.

i only do the dub because i'm re-watching it and i don't want to pay 100% attention and stay on the tab the entire time (bc holla at multitasking). i obvs don't know japanese so i have to have english in the background. once i catch back up to the episodes i stopped on and start watching new stuff, i'll prob switch back to the sub :// i used to love naruto but now that i'm older i'm realizing what a shitty job they did of dubbing it x)
