Despite challenges, there's a shift happening.
Many Nigerians are becoming less tolerant of bribery, thanks to digitization that reduces interactions with corrupt officials.
This cultural change is essential for progress.
Sharing this clever little game from *2008*.
It was the 1st place winner from our very first game design challenge.
We posed this intriguing challenge:
Can you create a game about teen dating violence without using any violence in the game itself?
We really did not know what to expect and were thrilled with the response. Our unique approach to violence prevention received media coverage -- even a mention in #Newsweek!
However, the game was created using #Flash and so it has not been available to play for years.
It has now been resurrected and we invite you to play it in your browser now - - right now.
It is a very short & quite quirky game (ideal for classroom play).
Plus, it's a helpful way to identify some warning signs of an abusive relationship.
The intention was to increase awareness about teen dating violence and provide guidance on how to seek help if it was needed. We think it works and we hope you agree.

I've been thinking about cultures of silence.
The latest Feminist Lecture Program lecture was about silence around sexual violence towards women in art history and how museums and even art history classes elide references to it even in very violent ("beautiful) paintings and sculpture (think The Rape of Europa, The Rape of the Sabines).
But in connection with this, recently, I've had a couple of friends say the general state of the world is "too horrible to talk about." Besides the fact that our general culture of not confronting feelings and not talking about them is a poison on individuals and society --
It's also exactly what fascist or authoritarian regimes want. All the better if you choose it yourself!
The two cultures of silence have much in common. The less people talk about it the more it can happen.
Let's reject cultures of silence for those subjects that need to be talked about, either for our mental health, public awareness, or as a form of resistance.
Todas las personas #LGBT que conoces han sido tratadas de forma terrible al menos UNA vez por SER quienes son.
¿Esperan que no exista un intento de construir comunidad? Que no haya proyectos, ONGs y movimientos #LGBTQ y demás?
Quejarse de que exista un colectivo, que se haga visibilización de cosas que PASAN y se luche por derechos.. es como vivir en 1820 y criticar a los abolicionistas de la esclavitud "por disruptivos".
Discovering the problem was just the beginning.
We understood how the Ozone Layer works and recognized the dire consequences of inaction.
It ignited a global response that showed what people can do when we unite for our planet.

The importance of being litigious
Lawsuits matter — even when they might not "win."...
https://www.lawdork.com/p/the-importance-of-being-litigious
"Forcing the administration to defend its actions, on the record & in #public, is important.
The mere fact of litigating can change implementation of #policy... Even a loss can advance #awareness...
From a litigation perspective, in other words, not suing is sometimes “obeying in advance.”...
In short: Force them to work for it."
"People only understand the full impact of their gravest mistake once they fully experience its painful aftermath." Futurist Jim Carroll
It seems pretty certain that a lot of folks are quickly coming to discover there are big implications to certain decisions.
I won't belabor the point, since we'll probably spend a good part of the year watching folks in the circumstance that fits the reality to be found in today's quote.
Intrigued with this state of affairs, I decided to go off and explore the science of mistakes. And wouldn't you know it -there is a scientific report about the science of mistakes called, well, The Science of Mistakes.
I dug into the report and a few other sources about the neurological and other basis for mistakes, and discovered some fascinating things.
First and foremost, mistakes that are good for you. But they can also be bad for you. Not only that, some people repeat the same bad mistakes over and over again, never learning from those mistakes until some real damage has been done.
Let's dig in - because these can be valuable innovation & leadership lessons. They might also provide some insight into how we found ourselves in this volatile year.
It's pretty clear to countless people that 2025 is the year of the big mistake.
Carefully study today's post quote.
You'll know what I mean.

This movie will not show you blood and violence, because it's made for a wide target audience, so some brutal scenes are softened; instead it aims to reveal the immeasurable suffering of billions of helpless sentient creatures; an event never seen before on this planet in known history. Now this is the best way to show the sad truth to any non-vegan, especially young people, you might meet.

An die Empörungsbubble:
Wir sind uns vermutlich alle einig, dass die Lage richtig kacke ist, also schenkt Euch die Weltuntergangs-Memes, egal ob sie witzig oder schockierend sein sollen.
Was wir jetzt brauchen ist ein stabiles Nervengerüst und das Gefühl der Selbstwirksamkeit - also praktische Alltagstipps - egal ob das Links zu Seiten mit Demoterminen sind, Tipps für Selbstversorger oder gegen Arbeitgeber- und Amtsschikanen.
About a fortnight ago, a fellow fediversian posted, what I would call supportive advice, but it is now vanished (at least for me). An online search found https://www.truthorfiction.com/daughter-of-mlk-and-coretta-scott-king-posted-this-advice-as-the-next-six-months-are-going-to-get-real/
In the current circumstances the last (unnumbered) pragraph of the post mentioned there seems most important to me.
