I do a lot of photography and I share it on my deviant art page.

It’s SFW, don’t worry.

  • I’d say that consuming content that only confirms your biases is a form of failing media literacy as you’re failing to see the biases inherent to the content you’re consuming. There’s the flaw of “I think it’s this way” seeking out that content and not seeing that it’s poorly sourced (if at all) and eating it up.

    Not to mention the role that content suggestion algorithms play in reinforcing that behavior and providing you with even more content along the lines of the biases you’re reinforcing.

    It’s a complicated can of worms for sure.
















  • For me that was basically all the not science, math, PE, or art classes.

    All trying harder in those classes did was make me feel shittier when I failed.

    Managed to graduate on time though through a Herculean effort of basically doing 3 years of high school during my senior year after my guidance counselor figured out that I could do online classes to make up credits during the school year.

    I flew through that shit like a rocketship through the stratosphere all because he said that he wanted to see how far I could get in one year because he “got the clearance” to give me as much as I could take and that he believed in me.

    It felt good to have someone believe in me for once.
