    Taking the general lesson to the specific application can take training. Not everyone will understand taxes just by reading. Look at how many adults now a days don’t understand tax brackets as a good example. Tax brackets are something that is fairly simple to explain and yet we have a good portion of adults who don’t understand them and will insist they get less money while getting a raise.

    My first sentence isn’t bogus, you just happened to understand the general lessons and apply them to the specific application. Other people find that challenging.

    Kids should learn about taxes and other important life lessons. However musical studies help kids a lot. It improves memory, hand eye coordination, increases grey matter in their brains, improves fine motor skills…all sorts of benefits come from learning a musical instrument. Plus once they can actually play you’ll have a live in classical jukebox.











  • It’s not nothing. One of the mods in /c/Risa was being overzealous about removing content. I think the post that started it was about Sarah Silverman making out with Tim Russ during the filming of Future’s End. The post was removed for “not a meme or shitpost” which some of the community felt was against the purpose of the community since Risa has no rules. People made a few posts asking why that post wasn’t allowed and those posts were removed. Stamets et al created this community a few days ago in response. That’s as much as I know about the situation.

    Edit:

    some different people are here bc risa removed a no-effort ai post and a celeb tablod post and they want that content i guess

    In response to your edit:

    This is the entirety of the sidebar on /c/Risa “Come on’n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don’t break the weather control network.”

    Where does that ban ai posts or celebrity tabloids? The correct thing for the mod to do would be to make rules if they don’t want those posts not remove them and all discussions regarding said posts.
