"DNI-Related Controlling Behaviors: The use of a DNI to try to enforce control over anyone who so much as ‘likes’ a post of theirs to an unhealthy degree, often backed up with social shaming, harassment, and callouts. The DNI may also be used as a social ‘trap’ to create an acceptable target for abuse. NOTE: While reasonable boundaries are good and DNIs are not by themselves red flags, this goes beyond reasonable boundaries and into unreasonable controlling behaviors. The use of ‘DNI’ in this criterion refers to all ‘boundary rule’-esque pages such as BYFs and other such things, not just DNIs.

"Vagueing, harassing, making callouts, or otherwise attacking people who are using the website as intended (i.e.- interacting with posts on their feed in any fashion without stalking the op) and likely did not see the DNI. Especially if the DNI is hidden or nonspecific and vague (ex- ‘no freaks’ or ‘standard DNI’), making them even easier to violate by accident.

"Frequently interacts aggressively with people who are clearly on their DNIs and then calls them boundary violators for responding to the harassment."

- Excerpt from "Safety in Alterhuman Spaces," a document by the Dragonheart Collective. Emphasis in the original. You can read the whole document here (PDF).

A note on language in the above quote: DNI (Do Not Interact) and BYF (Before You Follow) mean a type of post that many people put on their social media accounts to tell others about their boundaries.

Hi! So, I just started watching a documentary series aimed mainly at kids, following everyday life at the Bergen Aquarium in Norway.

And they have some reptiles. I an not an expert on the handling shown in the series, but I'm sure they know what they're doing.

But early on in season 1, they get a green anaconda from the Crocodile Zoo in Denmark. Just a little one, about 2,5 meters long. And the narrator says that it is considered one of the most dangerous snakes in the world? Is that correct??? Or just making drama for the intended audience of children?

Have you ever handled one?

Thank you!

Hmm, it might be stretching the truth a little bit, but sure, under the right (very specific) circumstances, green anacondas can be dangerous to humans. They're one of the few snakes that can actually get big enough to really kill or even eat an adult person, although a snake big enough to do so is exceptionally large and it's vanishingly rare.

I have handled green anacondas! They're lovely. Too big for most private keepers to even think about owning, but one of my herpetology friends is the director of a zoo and converted his basement into an enclosure for his, and she's a sweetheart. Anacondas can be a bit grumpy but well-socialized ones are a treat.

As with any large snake, it's not safe to handle any snake over about 12 feet long on your own, just because they don't know their own strength and accidents can happen! But personality-wise anacondas are lovely. They're just so big that handling them is a group effort!

Genuinely can someone explain why TADC is tv-pg on Netflix? Like that shits not for fucking kids.

We should NOT be exposing vulnerable children who don't even know what the hell they're getting into to this!! Shit like this is part of what fucking traumatized me a little kid!!

They need to change the fucking rating, I'm not even joking, I will not be watching this show until they do.

I still think I was onto something when I said that Kim's fixation on the revolutionary air brigades felt kind of like a kid with glasses really wanting to be a firefighter and then learning that you can't be a firefighter if you don't have natural 20/20 visiom because the heat would melt plastic or cause burns from metal frames and contacts weren't a safe choice either. It feels a lot like that. He wanted to work on those aerostatics but couldn't because of his eyesight

Holy shit

Can I just say

I am so

motherfucking tired

of these exorbitantly huge

vehicles with front hoods/grilles that are as tall as my head

You can make informed decisions about your privacy on the internet, and pick and choose to make it just right for your own personal needs. It doesn't have to be all-or-nothing. A risk that's acceptable for one person may be too big for another person. These lists are based on sources such as the book The Smart Girl’s Guide to Privacy: Practical Tips for Staying Safe Online, by Violet Blue. We recommend reading it to learn more.

Why does the right constantly believe they are not being idealistic, the world needs to conform to your beliefs for them to work too, things are not going to just turn on a dime because you think you're intellectually superior for not thinking about the impact your changes would have on other people

oh dear god i've gone so deep into a ship again that I'm now having feelings around the emotional significance and symbolism of different clothing colors and anyway Green is for heart-on-his-sleeve Carlos being incredibly vulnerable but still brave enough to follow his (fragile, battered) heart (usually towards TK). Maroon is for when he's secure and confident in his love, sometimes to the point of being mischievous little brat. Grey is for focus and intensity and protectiveness. Brown is for when he's feeling threatened or uncomfortable. Blue is for happiness (light blue is flirty-happy). This is a completely reasonable thing to be spending my evening thinking about.

I TAKE NO CRITICISMS

The bad categories are directed towards how creepy or awful (conceptually) the entity is btw. Disclaimer I love everything about the game but SOME OF THESE ARE SCARY AS FUCK IDEAS
