Every once in a while I think about how the Swiss have the cachet of “good chocolate” and Italy and France have the “good coffee” and well I don’t even really have the energy to get mad about it anymore

even your most basic introductory teaching course in Latin America teaches about the social, cultural and historical context of education, meanwhile it seems that MIT researchers in the United States see students as barely more than slightly smarter laboratory rats

Print them print them print them omg I can't even begin to express how true that is, when I can't I still highlight underline and annotate on digital (some apps let you do that in your computer) but there's nothing quite as good 🤌🤌🤌 as being able to read things on physical mediums.
Yo. I wanted to ask you on how to improve at reading scientific papers and the like, I need them for my career but im a bad reader and they intimidate me. Any advice? Thanks in advance 👍
There's really not much to do about it, because they're rather dry to read. A couple suggestions I can give you though:
1: Print them, having them in physical form is different than reading them on the screen. Choose some papers that are vital to your current research or career and print them, carry them in a little folder, make them your friend
2: Unless the materials and methods are the thing you need to understand, for example, you are using this paper as an example for the methodology involved (for example, I had 1-2 papers that I used as 'models' for my own), you don't need to care that much about it. The richest parts of a paper are in my opinion the discussion and the introduction with the context.
3: Every field has its own 'genre' of papers, and you notice, for example, comparing genetics to anthropology papers. Reading a lot from different disciplines makes you notice those quirks in each.

this might sound stupid but I can’t help but believe that the new wave of “birth control is actually horrible for your body, you need to get off it immediately” misinformation from influencers and the ‘natural cycle tracking’ apps suddenly being advertised is a sneaky underhanded way of causing more unplanned pregnancies that people now cannot abort. now is possibly the worst time ever to turn towards ‘natural family planning’
