Fun article about the history of Goldilocks and the Three Bears!
The Evolution of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’
Goldilocks as we know her didn’t even appear in the earliest written versions of the fairy tale.

Loved this episode of the @sustainoss podcast, about @ntnsndr’s book Governable Spaces: Democratic Design for Online Life.
I’ve been plagued by frustration for so long now that our online spaces don’t provide sufficient tooling for shared negotiation, instead defaulting to blunt mechanisms for shutting things down.
This was a great discussion about how things could be better.

extinct mammals of Scotland 🐺🐗 can you imagine if they could return?
Scotland is currently ranked 212th out of 240 countries in terms of how its biodiversity is doing, it's pretty bleak out here. Destructive farming practices/overgrazing, polluting industries, and species persecution for the sake of shooting are some of the reasons why there is such a wildlife crisis

"Indigenous peoples have been displaced from more than a million hectares of cleared rainforest to make way for transmigrants. Forest dwellers have been expelled to malaria-infested lower altitudes. Their rights are annulled by law."

Please be careful about "cut the parents some slack". You are absolutely right that it is hard to be a parent, and schools usually don't have helpful curriculums in this regard. However, when this is said to people suffering from the actions of a dysfunctional family, it often results in shutting them down when they are asking for help. It can look like you are unwilling to consider that they may be suffering at the hands of their family elders.
rest easy, i'm more than aware of how my words may be interpreted but no-one here was asking for help. If they were, i would take a different and more effective tack.
