Yeah. Not only can you ignore social media RIGHT NOW, it's quite possible the only way we save any part of humanity is to convince enough people to do just that.

They said, on social media.

It has already been concluded on another post that Lemmy is antisocial media.

The more downvotes you have, the more you win

[–] Tja@programming.dev 3 points 3 weeks ago

Very often it's the case.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

I mean, this isn't a very social social media platform lol.

I have zero real friends on here.

Wait, maybe it is like social media.

I think content-first social media like forums is far less bad than user-first like Twitter, Instagram, etc.

It's not social media if your accounts aren't doxxable in either direction. People who know me in person and know I'm on Lemmy wouldn't be able to figure out which account is mine, and people who encounter my account on Lemmy wouldn't be able to figure out who I am out in the real world.

I totally agree with everything you're saying, Steve.

[–] exasperation@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Close, but I spell my name with a "ph" so it's Phteven, or Phteve for short.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 0 points 3 weeks ago

Same for Instagram, Twitter, Mastodon, basically anywhere but Facebook.

Why would you need to be famous to ignore social media?

Honey you want to be rich not famous.

[–] july@leminal.space 23 points 3 weeks ago

If you’re famous enough won’t social media be after you then?

Good news, you already are! Just delete your social media accounts.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Wtf is wrong with this people, I'm not.famous and I ignore it completely. I think the more.famous you are the more you are on sm to keep the status

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Wonder what I'm famous for?

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

Why are the students sitting on the ground?

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

It doesn’t hurt elementary school aged children and having them move their chairs back and forth requires potentially chaotic transitions (kids get distracted, they hurt each other or themselves with the chairs, and there’s a bunch of noise that can distract other classrooms). The desks add a level of separation and distance that makes it hard to do some activities, like reading a story to the kids, and young kids really benefit from a transition between activities (we all do, but it’s more important the younger your learning group), which moving to a different part of the classroom creates.

Where I’m from, it’s also common to have kids circle up and do light calisthenics or stretching throughout the day to even out their energy levels, so this could be a stage immediately beforehand or afterwards.

Size-wise they look like high schoolers, but the classroom looks like it’s for young primary school students.

Lots of school desks have attached chairs so if you want to sit in a different configuration than a grid this is the easiest way
