Knocked it out of the park today. The links about gaming culture and positivity are most welcome. (A friend was tweeting about the former issue just this morning; I was wondering what the matter was.) As for LGBT education being introduced in UK schools, this tweet just crossed my timeline, and I couldn't possibly say it better.

The "Democracy is" sequence was good. Once I figured out from the pun what the "free breadsticks" one referred to, I was rolling around laughing at the sheer brilliant aptness of it.

Agree also with the "Asking the people around you" one. It was 15 years ago that I first suggested to my literary society that, if it wants to evaluate how well it's serving its membership, it should ask not its current members but those who have recently dropped out, and those who've come to our conferences but not joined the society - names and addresses for these people should be easily extractable from our records. But so far as I know they never took me up on this idea.

It's never a good idea to tell other people what to think. But I'd have to say that positivity saved my life rather than ruining it, so I think this is more nuanced and complex than that article suggests.
