  • To elaborate for anyone reading this who doesn’t know:

    Dogs are really good at noticing emotion in humans, better than they are at noticing the scent of contraband. When an officer wants a dog to alert, the dog picks up on it and alerts, even when there’s nothing there.

    There was even a study where they would have a dog try to find out which packages had drugs in. When the officer was fooled, the dog was significantly more likely to be fooled too than when trying to fool only the dog. The officers responded by refusing to continue the experiment.






  • You’ve been spending too much time with AI. You’re starting to hallucinate like one. They only said “people”, not all that extra stuff you just assumed they meant.

    I think a good step one would be to stop assuming “people” means “actually loved normal people who view anyone developmentally behind them as subhuman scum.” It could just mean people. You’re a person. You’re part of “people.”

    There’s a lot of people who were where you are right now, and they struggled and pushed forward and grew into something not normal, but functional. They have a ton of advice they had to learn the hard way. And they are all too eager to give the compassion they were never given. They will teach you.
