I recently came across a word that I couldn’t find a translation for. In Swedish, the word “skallgång” refers to the act of walking in a line formation in a search party.

I’m not here to downplay people’s issues or the implications as to what the future holds, but how many here will be affected by these changes? I’m leaning towards buying a Fairphone the next time my phone breaks down, but these changes won’t currently affect me as far as I know.

I just read a book called Lost in School by Ross Greene that proposes teaching emotional and behavioral skills like regulating your emotions in school. The idea is that it will lead indirect positive effects on things like scholastic results, aside from the direct benefits. It’s without a doubt the best course literature I’ve read.
