    There’s definitely a discussion to be had about the efficacy of homework, but this ain’t it.

      I’d rather talk about how obvious it is that the fediverse is literally controlled by children.

    ScrewdriverFactoryFactoryProvider might be one of the rare anarchist hexbears? In any case, unironic solidarity with our anti-homework, anti-bedtime comrades.

      Critical support for dog shitting.

      “What are you doing up still?”

      “Dog had to go out, waiting to bring him back in.” [dog has been chilling outside eating fireflies for the past hour]

        Ha, I never had a dog, so I missed out on that one. Mostly I remember trying to muffle the horribly loud modem sounds by putting a blanket over my computer so that I could get online without waking my mom up.

    I kind of feel bad for the kid, seems like he may be talking about himself when he talks about parents not being around to help with their homework.

    Weird to at least partially agree with them. Homework is meant to be busy-work, without it really facilitating any advancement in understanding of the material. I’ve had many a teacher admit that openly.

    They kinda went off the rails with the rest of that though.
