If art is subjective, why did schools enforce the idea that there's "right" and "wrong" ways to interpret literature?

I'm not talking about objective things like grammar, vocabulary, or structuring. I'm mostly talking about more subjective things like theme and mood. I get for younger students, since they need to learn to analyze and interpret literature. But for higher level students this might become more or a problem, especially when reading old poems and scripts. Why do schools make it seem like there's only 1 right way to view a story?

Do you actually put olives on top of your sandwiches?

When you look at a cartoon illustration of a sandwich, you will usually an olive or other similar topping on top of the sandwich. Have you actually put olives on top of your sandwiches? If so, why?

    So you know when it's quiet and your neighbor is playing loud music, but you can only hear the bass? Why is it like that?

    I get wanting to donate to the server. I personally find them annoying and think it encourages people to troll to bait awards.

    Awards. I just think they're unnecessary for an internet forum.

    Where did the logo for kbin come from?

    I'm trying to find where the logo for kbin came from, but I found nothing. Did [@ernest](https://kbin.social/u/@ernest) make it himself? Was it commissioned? I'm curious. Also does anyone have a high res version of the logo? I couldn't find any high res version of the logo.

    [SUGGESTION] Make magazine icons 600x600 instead of 600x500

    Minor complaint, but I think that magazine icons should be in a square format like 600x600 instead of the current maximum size of 600x500. By having the icons in a square, it would make the magazine icons look natural instead of the squashed images we see currently. [EXAMPLE](https://kbin.social/media/cache/resolve/post_thumb/e5/b4/e5b4cf22bbd4f0dd7db97c213c9b9efa01fa6de3b7d4d3735b7a09e3967d02a5.png) EDIT: I just noticed that this also applies to image previews too.

    How would this solve anything? This would most likely get people to spam account creations for mod then trash the magazines. Just having a magazine dedicated to requesting mod access to magazines would be a better system.

  • kbinMeta /kbin meta comment sorting
    Jump
  • -- -- 1 year ago 100%

    The comment sorting might be bugged right now, since "hot" and "newest" does the same thing. "Active" just sorts comment by reply count (sometimes?). Also there isn't a way to sort by top for right now. The team will probably add it later when they have other important stuff sorted out first.

    Yo [#linux](https://kbin.social/tag/linux). I was thinking of switching to Linux sometime soon, but I have to use [#Adobe](https://kbin.social/tag/Adobe) products for my job. How would you use Adobe software on Linux? Do you use a Windows VM or is there a special program to use Adobe products on Linux? If so, how easy is it to set up?

    Please use /m/kbinmeta to ask question about kbin.

    This magazine is not the place to ask question about kbin. Use [/m/kbinmeta](https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta) instead.
