[keen imp]

How insurance works.

[cunning holly]

@sick fable first message

[arctic sage]

the closest i got to being taught about people of color is in lessons about slave owners and the only time i’ve ever heard a teacher mention anything lgbt is when its directed at me

[heavy owl]

How

[covert ravine]

I live in the south bro, NO ONE is teaching LGBTQ+ history and stuff and it makes me mad.

[twin fossil]

Who created god

[dull bloom]

What about the Creation? They teach evaluation so why don’t they teach both sides?

[covert ravine]

Can't teach it if you don't know the answer.

[ember anchor]

Sign language or Latin would be peak

[heavy owl]

My teacher taught about the underground railroad. And like the civil rights movement

[dull bloom]

No one created God, he created the universe and everything.

[obtuse stag]

That’s a good point

[sick fable]

Schools are so underfunded in the South it’s such a disgrace

[heavy owl]

Hahajejd

[covert ravine]

It sucks so much hereeee.

[heavy owl]

I DON'T WANT THE NOTIFICATION

DONNNT

[obtuse stag]

Fax

[dull bloom]

My bad* not the creation, I mean about Creation itself as in God created the universe in 6 days

[ripe acorn]

https://tenor.com/view/breakingbad-science-yeah-science-gif-5954775

[arctic sage]

history is literally around to prevent repeating tragedies not teaching about the genocide of so many minorities and sitting around while people get harassed in a place thats supposed to be safe is insane

[heavy owl]

God is such a debated topic

[obtuse stag]

Yea I knew what u meant :)

[wraith marsh]

queer history and how to respect others

[dull bloom]

:) <3

[covert ravine]

It's disgustingggg.

[obtuse stag]

But like so is evolution and stuff so I feel like learning both sides would be helpful

[twin fossil]

But where’s does god come from? There’s no answer yet??

[languid stirrup]

Customer service and shit because wtf

[obtuse stag]

We will never know

[boreal snow]

Taxes i still don't know how to do them I'm just poor enough that I can do them wrong for free and the government tells me I'm dumb and fixes them then I pay them

[dull bloom]

He is an omniscient God, no one created him

[dull bloom]

The one and only God to that matter

[heavy owl]

I would not pay attention in either ❤️

[boreal snow]

Also how to drive like, properly. I almost hit three people and still somehow passed drivers ed

[tropic shadow]

how to read a 24 hour clock

[covert ravine]

😭

[obtuse stag]

VAlID, i dont listen to anything in school ahaha

[heavy owl]

That's... Taught in most schools

[boreal snow]

Another girl almost wrecked the car cause of a squirrel lol

[arctic sage]

dude the second my history teacher called an active and infamous slave owner a hero and then when i argued he said “it was normal back then” i failed the next like 3 years of history classes

[ripe acorn]

this is so easy that you can learn it yourself

[tropic shadow]

wasnt for me

[heavy owl]

Rs gng

[arctic sage]

american schools need to go

[heavy owl]

Sad.

Jdkwkmw

[ripe acorn]

Ik people that just pay to have it and don't take any sorta test at all

[obtuse stag]

what ever time it is in 12 hour clock just add 12 so rn its 6:35pm so just add 12 and thats 18:35 :))

[arctic sage]

or how to convert measurements or temperature

[boreal snow]

I remember zero if history cause it was basically the same thing over and over all I remember is gauge facts and we watched a movie once where a guy's head got blow off with a cannon ball

[tropic shadow]

this bro

[bronze current]

Sex ed should be a mandatory class everywhere. Where I'm from, they never made me take it. I'm not sure they even had a sex ed class.

[ripe acorn]

don't they teach this on math and science?

[heavy owl]

They did that in Australian school then I promptly forgot about it

[arctic sage]

no

[obtuse stag]

honestly i could use that

[covert ravine]

I'm GENUINELY surprised so many people don't know how to read 24 hour clocks. Like, that should just be taught in school, surprised they don't teach it in some places.

[heavy owl]

I should re learn that

[ripe acorn]

damn, that's odd. It was like that for me since sometimes we had to convert farenheit to celsius or to kelvin

[obtuse stag]

I use 24hr its wayy easier

[heavy owl]

People having an aneurysm because it says 13:57

[twin fossil]

Well…uhhh…
Answering the qotd
I think that the schools have to taught some basic things like AT LEAST how to cook something easy

[arctic sage]

they had me manually measure the court yard in feet and inches multiple times every day then never mentioned it again

[bronze current]

The 24 hour clock thing is weird to me too, nobody taught me it but some of my friends overseas use it so I changed my phone to the 24 hour thing so i could teach myself

[heavy owl]

They made me do both. Don't remember either

[covert ravine]

My school at the time made sex-ed and health class optional several years back, and you can tell the exact moment people started getting stupid with that stuff.

[boreal snow]

Thiiisss we never had it we had a "health" class where the teacher was the track and field coach and she basically called us all obese and had us make like weird diet plans

[bronze current]

Damn

[arctic sage]

i never actually learned either forms of temperature in school most things i know i taught myself after i switched to cyber

[obtuse stag]

i want school to teach poeple why anime is so good

[arctic sage]

should be not want thats entirely opinionated

[obtuse stag]

hehehehee

[heavy owl]

I know that in Australia they put u in words. So I learned that and then my dad got (jokingly) mad at me for spelling things in the non-american way

[arctic sage]

i had a traumatizing incident in school went cyber and couldnt go back so like past 8th grade most shit i taught myself

[ripe acorn]

I think the computer programs should be a lot harder. All we do is create graphs in Excel and change fonts. It's so goddamn easy for me I get 100% grade all the time

and they I see my classmates failing since each assignment takes 20% off the grade

[inland lagoon]

mine didn't 🙏 the amt of uneducated people is INSANE

[arctic sage]

[dire carbon]

[pliant dew]

intersex biology.

[flat stump]

They do teach that in advance biology i believe.

[pliant dew]

if we are gonna learn about male and female bodies we should include those who are not directly either

oh!

thats good

but i guess it should be like normalised like male and female biology ykwim?

[ripe acorn]

human biology?

[pliant dew]

idk

my school doesnt even really teach human biology a lot so idk what its like at other schools 🥹

[supple kestrel]

Taxes, Filing, and Accounting.

[ripe acorn]

we learn the human body in general, the traits for male and female usually go on the puberty section

[pliant dew]

oh thats good

yeah my school doesnt really teach human biology that much

[ripe acorn]

I said it before, but I think computer classes should at least teach something else aside from Docs and Excel. Like, I learned how to change a computer's OS all by myself

[tender night]

how to be flexible

my school doesn't teach a lot of stuff

[hollow chasm]

How to be a functional human being without always being of service

[last belfry]

[hearty gorge]

[hearty gorge]

[hearty gorge]

they do teach it in like the second grade but no one wants to understand it cuz it takes longer than looking at numbers

[wraith ether]

To all the people that said taxes my school actually has done a class economy where you have to do a job in the class and you earn fake money for it and you get fines bonuses and you have to pay rent bills and buy stuff it's like a whole economy

[sick fable]

Actually WAIT is it cool if I DM you because I just remembered I had some fire Javier art 😭

and ik so many kids who are just unaware and think theres nothing happening rn

[shut radish]

Financial stuff, mostly. Taxes and mortgages and loans. Those should've been core classes rather than electives.

[ripe narwhal]

I agree with the person above me they should have taught us taxes and other stuff that everyone is going to need to know

[dense hazel]

Life

[nova remnant]

How to file taxes

[craggy gazelle]

[brazen crater]

How animes are helpful for imagination

[modern rapids]

how to question what your government tells you

[lime wharf]

In my country unless you go to a math-centered high school, they don't teach logic, or if you go to a language-centered high school— philosophy. I think thats just a big loss on both sides

[frail apex]

How to manage your life financially etc

[granite mulch]

Sex education
In my country we still debate if it should be taught as an optional subject at 8th grade (this must be mandatory)

[delicate ridge]

Like literally multiple languages and like life skills

So like teaching about investment

Like where I am you are lucky if a teacher actually does something like that for you
Like spends a class period teaching that

My PE teacher did
