Hmm I might've been overambitious. Searching "glass water bottle with measurements" gets a few Amazon results but so many of them have "motivational" time labels but no ml markings...
There are quite a few listings for chemistry reagent type containers, too, which could maybe work?
The best thing I've found is this from Dunelm might be what you're after?
they did a chocolate lemon decades ago, but it was with dark chocolate, wasn't popular & got discontinued. I think they should try again but with white chocolate
you can get glass water bottles with millilitre markings on with glass lids
Nausicaa is my favourite film :)! the soundtrack is so bizarre in the best way
(the last film I watched was Kiki's delivery service, also recommend that to everyone! it's a lot more relaxing and kid-friendly than Nausicaa though)
Using ",,," as ellipses here is a pretty interesting tone indication feature!
On Tumblr, "..." ended up having connotations of judgement or anger, so to avoid that, people evolved to use ",,," as a softer version (often implying a more silly/amused tone) instead !
It's not patience that prevents me from reading Marx or whoever - it's lack of interest or need.
I'd rather spend time actually doing community stuff than reading about doing stuff in a theoretical future. My political opinions & activism work on a very basic "be kind to people + everyone deserves to live without suffering" ethos which doesn't really require background reading
Also a lot of men who've suggested theory to me in person have been ~~insufferable misogynistic knobheads~~ unkind, so I figure reading theory didn't improve their behaviour
Hugely agree, those would all be fantastic additions.
Yeah, there's definitely a difference between curricula, what's focussed on in classrooms, and exam assessment criteria, but they're supposed to be cohesive.
I remember one of my big pieces of coursework was "writing from the perspective of an advertiser," and we had loads of lessons on identifying bias. I was taught in school that "red top magazines" are "less honest and more emotive" than "broadsheet newspapers."
Presumably not everyone had the same experience though: I mentioned this offhand and my friend told me "surely that's illegal to teach in a classroom?!"
As a non-fiction lover, it's not the length of the chapter that matters, it's whether they have exercises for the reader, (e.g., puzzles, recipes) or some sort of pull-out-infographic or map to look at
This is actually a very minimal change to the already existing curriculum - the (compulsory) English Language GCSE is 50% "Critical reading and comprehension"
Gov UK states all specifications must include:
"identifying bias and misuse of evidence, including distinguishing between statements that are supported by evidence and those that are not; reflecting critically and evaluatively on text"
Most people presumably... "forgot"? but this has been in the curriculum for decades
It has "1.4L" embossed into the glass :)! it's just hard to see in the photos
