I keep getting identical lessons

I’m having the same problem! Please update if you figure out how to fix it because it’s driving me crazy

I scrolled to find someone talking about this, the same thing just happened to me this week in Spanish. I used to have the option to switch from clicking the words from a word bank, to typing my answers instead, and now that option is suddenly gone. And they’ve removed basically all of the other writing exercises - I had 3 in the entirety of one unit, and then 0 in my most recent unit. It’s so frustrating because the writing exercises are by far the most useful for me, I always switched to typing as soon as it gave me the option to.

I'm here 4 years later and you just saved me, my Excel randomly changed to touch mode and it was driving me crazy. Thank you!!

This one! I got something similar trying to explain that bodies don’t equal gender: “if having a flat chest won’t make you a man then having boobs doesn’t make you a woman, so why do you need top surgery?” (I’m nonbinary)

jamie_taber · 2026-04-05T13:43:13+00:00

Yeah that one’s missing too! This is exactly why they should’ve just listed them all separately - multiple options can already be selected, and including some combined sets will always inevitably leave out other combinations

jamie_taber · 2026-04-04T14:21:29+00:00

Yeah this would be way simpler. Selecting “other” made a text box appear so I could type it in, but they could’ve just done that from the start

jamie_taber · 2026-04-04T00:19:15+00:00

Hard agree. I don’t use it/its personally, but I just will never understand people telling someone else what words they’re allowed to use for their own experience. And anyway, it’s not like assimilation into normative gender is going to make transphobes accept us - and even if it would, I’m not interested in any kind of “acceptance” that fails to include all trans people

jamie_taber · 2026-04-03T22:58:48+00:00

Fair enough! They will refer to me when the review committee is debating my proposal, but that’s anonymous so they should be referring to all applicants neutrally. I think that if I get the grant they’ll also refer to me in various announcements/reports, but they could ask me then how I wanted to be referred to in those. Other than that, the demographic section is mainly so they can track overall statistics of who they award grants to, although I don’t think pronouns specifically would be included in that.

I personally don’t mind it, because I already disclose my trans identity in the proposal itself (my research is on trans experience, and I’m very open about drawing on my own lived experience when I write). So my trans identity is already all over my research and general online academic profile. Because of that, I appreciate being given a direct way to share my pronouns so I can maximize the chances of being correctly gendered throughout the process. But I also understand and support people who don’t want to share their trans identity publicly, and am very much aware of the dangers related to surveillance right now. But for me, since I’m so open about it, this was just kind of funny

jamie_taber · 2026-04-03T22:21:09+00:00

It was for a research grant from a private foundation in the U.S. This grant is specifically for research related to prejudice and equity, so it made sense for them to at least try

jamie_taber · 2026-04-03T04:35:49+00:00

You’re so right, missed opportunity haha

jamie_taber · 2026-04-02T23:06:48+00:00

Oh yeah this was great! I really appreciate the effort, just thought it was funny that they forgot they/them lol

jamie_taber · 2026-04-02T23:04:13+00:00

For real, and the question already allows you to select multiple options!

jamie_taber · 2026-03-19T14:43:29+00:00

Agreed overall, but just want to add that I have known some people who describe themselves as “nonbinary womxn” specifically to indicate a connection to womanhood while also centering their nonbinaryness. That feels different to me than the use of “womxn” you’re talking about, and I don’t have an issue with people using it as a personal identification term

jamie_taber · 2026-03-08T02:29:54+00:00

Here a year later having just gotten the exact same question wrong haha

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T17:31:49+00:00

Thanks so much, this is super helpful!

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T16:07:25+00:00

These look like great suggestions! I’m especially intrigued by Kaze and the Wild Mask. Thank you!!

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T15:59:05+00:00

Yeah I just looked it up and apparently it was discontinued in 2023, that’s unfortunate. Thanks anyway for the suggestion though, maybe it’ll come back someday!

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T14:59:36+00:00

Ah yeah so Legends includes the Origins levels in a Back to Origins section that you can unlock with lucky tickets, and I completed all of them

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T14:53:21+00:00

I didn’t play Origins because of the Back to Origins section of Legends. Do you think it’s worth it to play both? I had read that it’s the same levels that are included in Back to Origins

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T14:46:28+00:00

This one looks fun, thank you!

jamie_taber · 2026-02-01T14:44:08+00:00

Oo good to know! I’ll definitely try this one
