not to oversimplify an extremely complex discipline but if i had to pick one tip to give people on how to have more productive interactions with children, especially in an instructive sense, its that teaching a kid well is a lot more like improv than it is like error correction and you should always work on minimizing the amount of âno, wrongâ and maximizing the amount of âyes, and?â for example: we have a species of fish at the aquarium that looks a lot like a tiny pufferfish. children are constantly either asking us if thatâs what they are, or confidently telling us thatâs what they are. if you rush to correct them, you risk completely severing their interest in the situation, because 1. kids donât like to engage with adults who make them feel bad and 2. they were excited because pufferfish are interesting, and you have not given them any reason to be invested in non-pufferfish. Instead, if you say something like âIt looks a LOT like a tiny pufferfish, youâre right. But these guys are even funnier. Wanna know what theyâre called?â you have primed them perfectly for the delightful truth of the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker
I was in martial arts for years, and in particular I kinda specialized in working with the younger kids.
The two Big Rules when instructing younger students was- 1. Compliment before Critique 2. Donât say âbutâ, say ânowâ
Praise kids on what they get right first, especially if they are struggling. Like OP said, kids donât like to engage with people who make them feel bad. They need encouragement when learning new things.
Number two boils down to this. If you tell a kid a compliment, then say âbut you need to fix thisâ, that âbutâ completely negates your compliment. Itâs gone. It was canceled out like adding a negative to a positive. Using âhey, that punch is looking great, now letâs focus on your stanceâ doesnât verbally cancel out the progress theyâve made. Itâs like theyâve checked off something on their list of stuff to work on.
Wording can absolutely make or break a childâs motivation and interest.
Rebloggling as itâs relevant in a Medical Education context
Honestly I use all of these to teach vet students too. I think people in general respond better to positivity in teaching. Not coddling, but acknowledging when a student got part way to the right answer, or had a good thought process, is something Iâve found keeps students engaged and builds confidence, which encourages them to keep going instead of shutting down and just âgetting throughâ a lab or a rotation
Advise we use at my work (teaching mostly younger kids with a hard time reading) is Specific Positive Support. If they read the word âbriskâ as âbricksâ you go â yeah, you got that first blend, nice job, those can be tricky!â before getting into what they struggled with. Just saying â good workâ or ânice jobâ starts to feel like a platitude and precursor to âhere is everything wrongâ if itâs not paired with proof that the kiddo /actually did do a good job on a thing/. Kids arenât stupid, they can tell when youâre Just Saying Something Nice to head off a shutdown. But praising the specific things they did well, or got right, even if itâs just â dude, you said that so fast!â or âThanks for matching my question, good job listening.â is a game changer.
every time something like this happens, SJPers inevitably try to hide behind chapters being âindependent & autonomousâ, as if this is just a problem with that one local chapter.
but practically every chapter has their own separate laundry list of posts like this, either celebrating terror attacks & massacres, or sharing Nazi memes, or hosting rallies that feature convicted terrorists as speakers, & where open support for Hamas et al goes unchallenged, etc. etc.
itâs just that finding and actually presenting all that information takes time & effort, and doing that for every single one is like the worldâs most exhausting game of whack-a-mole, while deflecting criticism to the satisfaction of people whoâve already bought in can be done with a single line talking point.
Zaid hates Jews, and loves fake vetbro shit. I wish him an eternity of drinking nothing but black rifle coffee.

âSJP chapters are independent & autonomousâ
And? So is the Klan.
The âautonomous cellâ structure is in fact incredibly common among hate groups & extremist organizations for exactly this reason.
Neo-Nazis use it. Terrorist organizations use it. For the same reason White Supremacist violence usually takes the form of âLone Wolfâ attacks.
Itâs an entirely intentional & incredibly effective tactic for vast radicalization networks to isolate and limit responsibility for the inevitable fallout of their rhetoric & actions.

i would like to remind everyone smugly using "usamerican" that you are not being woke or reclaiming anything you just don't understand how adjectives or languages work
american - national of the united states of america
north american - individual living in or a national of a country located on the continent of north america
south american - individual living in or a national of a country located on the continent of south america
canadian - definitionally, especially lately, person who does not fucking want to be called an american, because "american" in both canadian and american english has the semantic weight of "national of the united states of america"
and this is not, in fact, limited to english
amerĂskur - icelandic adjective for american (loanword, more on the slang side, bandarĂskur more often used)
amerĂkani - icelandic noun describing a national of the united states of america
amĂŠricain - french adjective or noun describing a national of the united states of america
you cannot brute force a sea change in multiple languages simply because you personally misunderstand the difference between etymology and semantics and also assume (in, hilariously, a very american-centric way) that the billion-plus individuals must have a closer connection to the concept of continent than they do to nationality or other regional identities. a catfish is not literally a cat. it is a completely random trick of language evolution that nationals of the united states of america are not called unitans or vespuccians. calm down and stop being irritating
A note for anyone who would like the technical terms for what's happening here:
Demonym (or gentilic): A name for an inhabitant or native of a specific place, usually derived from the name of that place.
Endonym (or autonym): A common, self-chosen, native name of a group of people, an individual person of that group, a geographical place, a language or a dialect; it is 'native' in the sense that it is used inside or by a particular group or linguistic community to identify or designate themselves, their place of origin, or their language.
Exonym or (xenonym): A foreign-established, non-native name for a group of people, an individual person of that group, a geographical place, a language, or a dialect, meaning that it is used primarily outside the particular place inhabited by the group or linguistic community.
Compare ethnonym, which applies to ethnic groups.
American is an endonym and exonym. Ătats-unien is an exonym. Both are demonyms. Neither are ethnonyms.

The Eyes of the Fleet, by Montague Dawson (1890-1973)
@nonbinaryjudean you made such a good point here and I just want to add the fun bonus layer of them also simultaneously denying that the tribe they are claiming heritage of is in fact the real tribe. Their argument eats itself. Where pray tell do they think the genetic model to compare against.... came from?
June 1st
Listen, marketing-as-exploitation discussions aside, Rainbow Capitalism is, has been, and continues to be the canary in the coal mine of social acceptance for the queer community.
If youâll all pardon my Americentrism for a moment, the amount, visibility, and flamboyance of Pride merch available in clothing, home goods, and comestibles stores is a DIRECT reflection of how safe it is to be queer in public in the United States.
How? Simple. Out groups arenât profitable. If youâre not âacceptableâ in the current social climate, big franchise businesses will not market to you. (Prime example - Look how quickly Target dropped all their Pride merch after having been wall-to-wall rainbows every June for almost a decade prior.)
Sure, capitalism sucks and being viewed as an exploitable marketing demographic isnât a fun concept.
HOWEVER.
The grim truth is that being normalized enough to be considered profitable by corporations IS A GOOD THING in terms of the barometer of social acceptance.
Same thing goes for smaller businesses that throw kitschy Pride events or even just put a token rainbow flag in the window or somewhere inside the shop. Thatâs a level of acceptance that DID NOT EXIST thirty years ago, and I can tell you because I was there.
The fact that we can scoff and bitch about being an exploitable marketing demographic nowadays means we have made GIGANTIC strides since the 1990s. It also speaks to the fact that the drive and the conversation surrounding LGBTQ+ rights and acceptance are continuing. And getting louder.
You can be cynical about it if you want. But I will take a store that puts out lip-service rainbow merch over a world that pretends we donât exist any day of the week. Because that will always mean something.
Sincerely, An Elder Queer
Agreed, and also, it has always struck me as a little bit of a double-standard in queer politics when people used to point out the exclusion of queerness from mainstream capitalist products as evidence of their marginalization (e.g., there are no m/m or f/f wedding cards)
Yet, when they start being included, they are like âwell, thatâs just capitalism taking advantage of us, so it doesnât count.â Like, you canât use your EXCLUSION from something as evidence of general societal marginalization and then claim that once youâve started to be included, it is politically meaningless. You donât really get to have it both ways. Thatâs moving the political goal posts.
I get that we shouldnât consider Target pride merchandise as like the pinnacle of queer politics or even the pinnacle of queer inclusion. I get that inclusion in capitalist intuitions is a very ambivalent form of social progress. But the truth is, capitalism is a big part of what creates our social reality right now (unfortunately).
Capitalism makes TV shows, and movies, and books, and ads, and greeting cards, and toys, and clothing, and, andâŚ
When every single aspect of commercial social reality excludes queerness, that DOES create a real sense of social alienation. I donât love that capitalism is responsible for creating so much of our collective social reality. But granting that it does, I think weâre forced to accept that our inclusion in it IS politically and socially important.
And yes we should still be trying to resist capitalism as the primary means of meeting human needs. But we can resist treating capitalism as an inevitability or an inherent good, AND ALSO acknowledge that our inclusion within it remains politically important while it still holds so much power and responsibility for creating our shared reality.
See also a recent article from NPR (published May 30, 2026) discussing how pride celebrations have struggled financially with the loss of corporate sponsorships. Organizing big visible events (and fairly compensating the labor of those who make them possible) is expensive.
Public support for the LGBTQ+ community by corporations has become politically risky, public relations expert says.
aint it crazy how everyone is famous nowadays and yet I dont know who anyone is. there are countless people that will have more followers on instagram than the population of Sacramento and no one I know irl has ever heard of them
So first off:
