do you have any ideas about why so many students are struggling with literacy now? I know that illiteracy and reading comprehension have been issues for years and most americans read at like a 5th grade reading level but I’m curious why it seems to be worse now (pandemic? no child left behind?)

It is everything. There’s not one answer. I could talk about this forever so instead I set a five minute timer on my phone and wrote a list of as many of the many things that are causing this on a systemic level that I could think of:

It’s parents not reading with their kids (a privilege, but some parents have that privilege to be able to do this and don’t.)

It’s youtube from birth and never being bored.

It’s phasing out phonics for sight words (memorizing without understanding sounds or meaning) in elementary schools in the early aughts.

It’s defunding public libraries that do all the community and youth outreach.

It’s NCLB and mandating standardized tests which center reading short passages as opposed to longform texts so students don’t build up the endurance or comprehension skills.

It’s NCLB preventing schools from holding students back if they lack the literacy skills to move onto the next grade because they can’t be left behind so they’re passed on.

It’s the chronic underfunding of ESL and Special Ed programs for students who need extra literacy support.

It’s the cultural devaluing of the humanities in favor of stem and business because those make more money which leads to a lot of students to completely disregard reading and writing.

It’s the learning loss from covid.

It’s covid trauma manifesting in a lot of students as learned helplessness, or an inability to “figure things out” or push through adversity to complete challenging tasks independently, especially reading difficult texts.

It’s covid normalizing cheating and copying.

It’s increasing phone use.

It’s damage to attention span exacerbated by increased phone use that leaves you without an ability to sit and be bored ever without 2-3 forms of constant stimulation.

It’s shortform video becoming the predominant form of social media content as opposed to anything text-based.

It’s starting to also be generative AI.

It’s the book bans.

what did I miss.

btw the katy perry/bezos' girlfriend/other four irrelevant billionaires 10 minute space stunt was not the first all female expedition no matter how much they try to market it as such. the first all female mission was in 1963 with soviet cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Irina Solovyova and Valentina Ponomaryova - all three of which were working class and had to pass incredibly hard exams to be chosen from 400 potential candidates. just in case we started falling for the propaganda machine again

i really need to write a fic that's like. the aftermath of an omegaverse dubcon scenario. characters come to their senses after being lost in a haze of lust and pheremones, possibly still with blood on their teeth from an ill advised mating bite, and like. they're facing SUCH an awkward moment of coming to terms with this because. they're still knotted together. they've got between several minutes and half an hour to sit and think about what they've done before they can so much as get distance from the situation. idk i just think it would be a crazy interesting pov. gotta speed run coming to terms with the latent attraction you thought you had been successfully ignoring.

Ooooh they're gossiping about you, this might be juicy to listen to so you stop right before you'd be seen and lay against the wall closest.

Roman chuckles nervously, "yeah I - I suppose he is feeling better."

"The way you guys came in here stumbling all over the place, I was worried you might not be able to get home" Janus replies.

There's a scoff from Roman, "I doubt you cared that much, besides I practically live across the street."

"That's a funny way of saying two streets away" Janus snarks.

"I said practically, I go through the lane ways it's basically the same thing" Roman huffs.

You thinks that perhaps these two don't get along too well, judging by tones alone.

"Whatever" there's a pause, a sipping then Janus continues, "at least you're here."

"What pray tell is that supposed to imply?" Roman snaps.

"Oh, nothing nothing - you know how I jest, water under the bridge and whatnot" Janus says airily brushing off his own comment.

"I'm not having this conversation with you again" Roman says trying to shut the conversation off.

"Oh yes, because our previous ones were so enlightening" Janus' words drip with sarcasm.

It seems like Roman is at his limit with being in the same room as Janus, you jump a little when he yells, "Remus! are you done yet?"
