I wish I knew more about this project in San Luis Potosí, Mexico.
I suspect this is part of bus driver training.
I'm imagining the DMV making it a part of every driving test for your license. Some people learn best by experiencing the consequences of their actions from the victim's perspective.
Publishing profits are better than they were 10 years ago, all the time that Internet Archive has been doing its thing—loaning the books it owns.
And yet Big Publishing is pouring money into suing the Archive, saying that they’ve been economically devastated?
We don’t see it.
What publishing wins from the Archive, if they win (and they shouldn’t), is $$$ straight into the pockets of lawyers and lobbyists, not #authors.
Ask us how we know?

For those of you considering starting something with Patreon, it's fully moved into late stage enshitification.
This poor creator was given $583 by their patrons, and Patreon took $109 of it in fees. 🤦♀️
Go use Ko-fi, they're still run by humans who actually care about creators and don't try and screw them at every opportunity. Also consider Ghost.org. They're working hard to make an Open Source Patreon style platform w/ NO fees beyond simple hosting cost.
Did you grow up reading comics in the Sunday paper? Ever wonder how they were produced? The answer for me to both these questions was "Yes". Luckily I just came across a Kickstarter project that will help answer the how question and indulge my memory of comics.
"How Comics Were Made" is a great opportunity to back a book that frankly no one else will ever make. @glennf
