#because it's not

That feeling you get when you see someone post a video on YouTube about why Moo Deng is an example of a good zoo.....

Look, to be fair, he did specify that the behavior of the guests is irresponsible. I'm not going to link this video, this is a smaller creator who means well. He seems passionate about zoos, but just doesn't presently have much familiarity with the nuances of animal care.

This is also a good time to mention that, yes, animals breeding is a positive sign in terms of welfare. That is NOT the only sign you look for, however. You can have both positive and negative welfare inputs at the same time. Some species, or even individuals, are just more picky than others when it comes to breeding.

I also want to clarify that I'm not making a judgment about that zoo's overall quality. Zoos can be a mix of good and bad. What I am saying is that the way the keepers have been interacting with Moo Deng, and the internet turning this into a big meme, is uh... maybe not the best example of why zoos are good.

Is insulting his skin supposed to be a supportive and romantic thing? Because I don't find it to be. Sigh. Why is negging treated so romantically by MAME?

angie and "belief will set you free."

no.

do not quote Scripture incorrectly at me.

So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, "If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:31-32.)

particularly within a game where finding out the truth and bringing it to light is not only very important but one of the themes for our detective character, who is scared of seeing the truth and the consequences of bringing it to light, do NOT quote Scripture wrong to me.

David Tennant should auction off just the top button from that vest for charity. Some nutter would pay a lot for it and then probably suck on it of something.

ya know, as much as it gets discussed as "an adhd thing" I don't think rsd is innate to adhd at all.

I think it's something that develops in response to the chronic invalidation and rejection that people with adhd experience, and people with adhd are vulnerable to it because they often struggle with emotion regulation in the first place. but if anything it's more a learned stimulus response than anything like...innate to the disorder. ya know.

if you struggle with emotion regulation you're probably gonna be more predisposed to it, but it's the experience of chronic rejection that most likely causes it. not adhd (or any neurodivergence) itself.

ABO, huh? 😏

*raises my hand to ask a question* what if we collectively refused to refer to AI as 'AI'? it's not artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence doesn't currently exist, it's just algorithms that use stolen input to reinforce prejudice. what if we protested by using a more accurate name? just spitballing here but what about Automated Biased Output (ABO for short)

i’ve started babysitting for a VERY christian family which is great because they pay me a lot of money but as someone who was raised almost completely agnostic it’s kind of insane. the 2 year old keeps asking me to read her stories from the bible. (why are we reading david and goliath to a 2 year old????) the 5 year old told me today that he was going to bring his legos to heaven with him. he also has repeatedly told me that the lego spaceships he builds are stronger than jesus. (not sure what to say to that. do i deny it??? are things allowed to be stronger than jesus??) had to stop myself mid sentence today because i almost told them im not going to heaven which would DEFINITELY have caused several meltdowns. they’re also both completely fascinated by my nose ring
