love bullshit studies vilifying cell phones floating around now.

such as this one:

Can you tell why it's bullshit?

why it's bullshit test scores improved by ~1.5 percent in this period?
wooow!

you know what also changed?

www.educationadvanced.com/blog/florida-standardized-tests

yeah that's right

the fucking tests changed

also, fresh COVID disablement probably also had an effect in the earlier period

also, study article states that attendance improved. this cannot be down to the fucking phones.

and and and and and.

"omg this might totally be cell phone use reduction" is a nonsense claim
