  • it's tied to a company that invests in military AI... it's a pass from me.

  • There are a lot of different versions, just like with any mythology, and things lost in translation. I think it's honestly down to your preference. I prefer NIV, but that's just me. I cannot stand the King James.

  • yes, there are nonfandom related comms there. not nearly enough, though, in comparison, which was my point.

  • I'd love to see more content like this to balance out all the fandom stuff

  • Seems like it may fall more under lunarpunk?

  • sounds like a blog. you could try WordPress and use their Reader section to follow other Wordpress blogs. there's also writefreely and write.as

  • Agreed, school curriculums are currently designed so teachers have to teach to a test, and are evaluated on how their students score in these standardized tests, so there's no time to actually dive deep into things or engender a curiosity in reading deeply for pleasure.

    Like in this article that explains how high school students these days aren't even assigned a whole book to read like back in my days, just excerpts to analyze and target specific curriculum standards. It's so sad and disheartening, they don't even get time to finish or appreciate a whole book, just a piece of it out of context. And just the barrage of short stories they don't even get to fully digest before they have to move on to the next one.

    And then there's the rise of digital reading and its effect on comprehension and reading for pleasure. And the rise of book bans driving kids away from the library. It all paints a very depressing picture.
