Has anybody met one of these? Are the stories true? They are calling Generation Alpha “the iPad kids”
@vriska apparently it’s causing lots of teachers to leave their jobs as the number one reason because they are near impossible to teach, and I’ve seen people describing them like “zombie kids” too who have no attention spans or imaginations.

It is easy to imagination how basically just growing up watching the likes of “Skibidi Toilet” could completely warp their minds tbh
@Arcana @vriska this is why my kids will grow with a random 4chan board each trimester 👊 😎
it'll be on rotation :crossedarmswojak:
one trimester its /pol/, the other will be /lgbt/, the next will be /g/, then /a/ and so on

@mischievoustomato @Arcana trimester only refers to three phases of a 9 month pregnancy lmao

@vriska @thatbrickster

And also rarely refers to a 1/3 segment of the school year. One of my younger brothers had two friends that went to a school with trimesters instead of semesters, though after a year or two, the school renamed its segments to "triads".

@lnxw37b2 @vriska @thatbrickster "trimester" just means "a third of a time period", be it the 9 months of pregnancy, the academic year, a simple calendar year or whatever. Also see: semester, a half of a time period.

@Amikke When people say 'trimester' they are usually referring to pregnancy. Mind you, I've spoken to people who didn't understand what HRT was originally developed for, and block me for going through the trouble.

@lnxw37b2 @vriska

@thatbrickster @Amikke @lnxw37b2 okay everyone thread officially over, someone mentioned gender unprompted but it was fun while it lasted
