Training dogs to work with livestock, and livestock to work with us, is what makes my life worth living. Interpreter and teacher to guide conversations between three distinctly different species, see their relationship develop into a mutually respectful cooperation.

I was poking around Google Scholar for publications about the relationship between chatbots and wellness. Oh how useful: a systematic literature review! Let's dig into the findings. 🧵

I’d say any trans person that can work would be insane to stay in the uk. Sadly those with health issues who need help are stuck in the uk with no way out.

If you ever had the question "What did the average person do during the Holocaust?" it likely came with a message of regret
All these statements being made with "utmost regret and sadness" fundamentally don't change the fact that these organisations are all folding to appease one vexatious bigot because she has infinite money, instead of doing the right thing and sticking by their guns and ignoring the Supreme Court.

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

please keep to heart that each and every one of these attempts to eradicate trans women from public life, from professors to girl guides, is a form of misogyny so efficient in how it keeps the regime of sexual difference intact that it smoothly undercuts everyone else's rights
