...but not all of them.

Consequently, IDK what Kaya's collar is, and you don't know, either, unless you were able to hold remote and receiver in your hands and examine them, and at this point, for a case where I feel good saying a dog WASN'T shocked, I kinda feel like a creep doing this.

Also, Kaya's collar features some little holes in the corners that seem to be intended in the event you want attatch stuff to the receiver case. This exists on at least one version of the PG-300's case (www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-6o...) ....

...as does the PG. Here's an older version of the PG-300 where you can see that it's PG-300 due to the serial #, but it has an entirely different remote to the red round shape of the current version of the model for sale on E-Collar Technology's website: www.reddit.com/r/OpenDogTra...

Kaya's collar shares details of multiple different cases, PG and Mini alike, which makes sense. Products vary slightly over the years as the manufacturer tweaks things. Having freeze framed through multiple videos + looked at listings, you can see the Educator Mini often varies...

If anyone cares, here's the best side-by-side I can manage showing the profile of an Educator PG-300 (which lacks shock function), the Educator Mini listing on Chewy listing (shock model D's subreddit alleged), and Kaya's Educator.

The longer I look, the less I'm able to tell you which Kaya's is.

Nevermind, there's a mini that comes in red, because of course there is, because manufacturing details can change year to year by batch.

I mean, I can believe that they're that stupid, but the stupidity frustrates me. Dogs need activity, but they also love to snooze. Adult dogs are zonked out like half the length of a 24 hour day. It's why I have so many pix of my *husky mix* sleeping.

...they're right that Hasan has a shock-capable Educator model, hell, even if he shocked Kaya (and I don't think he did) they STILL wouldn't be fit to talk, because the problem with abuse isn't an abuser ruining their "image" it's the abuse itself. Dogs deserve better than being spoken of this way.

The focus on "destroyed his image" really irritates me. This schmuck acts like a dog isn't a living thing that needs competent care and handling, but a status symbol, an object, and if you can't understand things outside of that framework, you're not going to be able to comment on this. Even if...

Depends on how many you can nom before you risk getting tummy freeze. I can do three of the skinny Outshine ones before that.

I am unfamiliar with who/what "Atozy" is, so you'd be so kind, may I trouble you for a clarification?

"What are these?" I ask.
"That looks like a mirror and an amulet."
"I eat them."
"You EAT them?"
"The bird druid has no pockets! They already swallowed an entire bag of gold."
DM, wearily "Roll me a constitution save..."

It's my turn.
The DM asks what I want to do.
I point to an object on the map.
"What's this?"
"That's a pot of soup."
"I want to throw the soup."
I roll a 1.
DM "roll me a constitution check."
I roll 19.
DM "because of your experience as a connoisseur of soup pots, you narrowly avoid getting burned."

I was reading some of it, and yeah, that part was quite neat. Fantasy mobility devices are usually better when you let the wheelchair users write them, because we're constantly thinking about that stuff.

Update update, E-Collar Technologies makes a pager-only version, this means Hasan is potentially 100% truthfully about Kaya's collar having only a vibration function. bsky.app/profile/emex...

Mx. Dizzy: God gave his sharpest teeth to his hurtiest gremlin @emexdizzy.bsky.social · 12h

Nevermind, I care about diligence, and I heard that E-Collar Technologies makes a version of the Educator that's vibro-only, and I can confirm that. What Kaya is wearing is clearly an Educator, but looking at just the collar leaves the model unclear. www.educatorcollars.com/pg-300-pager...

Mx. Dizzy: God gave his sharpest teeth to his hurtiest gremlin @emexdizzy.bsky.social · 12h

...why I hate this fucking controversy so much. The broad clamor is not about Kaya's wellbeing or advancing knowledge that shock collars do harm, it's about attacking Hasan individually with the least amount of charitability possible and people aren't willing to change opinions based on evidence.

Mx. Dizzy: God gave his sharpest teeth to his hurtiest gremlin @emexdizzy.bsky.social · 12h

...and it is the Educator PG-300, that would fully eliminate any leeriness I feel towards his truthfulness. Also, I should have dug into E-Collar Technologies deeper before, I didn't dig enough to see that they had a pager-only model, that is entirely an oversight on my part. This is, again...

Mx. Dizzy: God gave his sharpest teeth to his hurtiest gremlin @emexdizzy.bsky.social · 12h

As a reminder, no matter WHAT version of the Educator Kaya wears, I still DO NOT believe Hasan shocked her, this is now purely a matter of transparency/accuracy and also broader education. I'm still not happy about him justifying shock collars, but if he has been fully honest about the model...

The one sure fire way to know which version of the Educator Kaya has would be if Hasan showed the remote. This vid doesn't show the remote, so if anyone has of him showing the remote at another, I'd appreciate that. If it's red, it's the PG-300, and that's that. youtu.be/XZU2qy3CRk0?...

Someone lied to you.

This might hold true for RPGs where you pick your own player character or generic NPCs, but there's a general dearth of chubby girls in opportunities where you're not doing that.

...you tend to get really GOOD representation for example, Sun Spider in both the comics and the Spider-Verse film, her hyper-mobility, crutches and wheelchair are incorporated into her character in a believable way, I just get frustrated when it's sloppy and ignorant.
