If the path to your ideal society depends on everyone agreeing to live by the rules of that society, what you have is a fantasy not a solution. The first question of social change must be how to accommodate those who don't support it.

McDonald's Fried Apple Pies suck. They sucked 30 years ago, and they'll suck when they return. Liking them shows you have the taste buds of a middle schooler.

Public consultation survey had no clickable 'No' option to disagree with the social media ban, Labour then used this to claim public support.

From a school notice: "Due to GDPR unfortunately, we cannot share the names of the other students in the class." 🤯 When the GDPR prevents you from knowing the names of next year's classmates, something has gone horribly, Europeanly wrong.

@AConcernedPare2 If you want to go the other direction, The Murderbot Diaries by Matha wells is pitched for short attention spans with quick action and a snarky tone, and there are a lot in the series. I personally found them a bit shallow, but librarians swear by them for middle school boys.

@AConcernedPare2 Neal Stephenson's Anathem is often the next step for those who want a more sophisticated Hard SciFi after the finish Andy Weir. his novel Snow Crash is also highly decorated. Both are paced slower and require some deeper more careful reading.

I recently bought my 13 yo son "The Martian" after he loved Project Hail Mary. He finished it in 2 days and is looking for more books like this. Any recommendations for sci-fi books that are similar?

Starmer: We want to digitally ID everyone who uses social media Brits: Absolutely Not! Starmer: OK then, we want to ban under 16s from social media (by digitally ID-ing everyone) Brits: OMG that’s a great idea. Idk what idiot would be against that 🥴

@AConcernedPare2 A lot of what I see in the thread is pretty old and may feel dated to a 13 year old who has seen SpaceX and SLS but doesn't remember Apollo. Be cautious 21st century readers may find the science in older novels outdated.

People *need* to understand this: the under-16 bans hit adults too. Whether you’re 15 or 55, your ability to speak freely and anonymously online is at risk. This. Isn’t. Just. About. Teens.

JUST IN: UK Government clarifies adults will still be able to use social media by verifying their identities with digital IDs, facial recognition, passports and credit cards.

My 17-year-old daughter: “I’m confused. We’ve always been taught not to share personal information or anything that identifies us online because it isn’t safe. Now they want us to do exactly that to access social media.”

I think the compromise consensus position for pretty much everybody of good faith should be that the full text of the agreement be released. There’s no reason to take Trump’s word or Iran’s or random leakers’ word for it. Release the text, period.
