stereotypical white knight

what the fuck man

Unfortunately these kind of rescues/sanctuaries that are fronts for hoarding aren't uncommon. For some reason they always attract thousands of followers who believe they can do no wrong and authorities refuse to do anything about them.

What has been the fruit of reaching out to SaveAFox directly and politely with concerns, with no presumption of ill will or selfish motivation, before dropping speculation about hoarding? Has the OP even done so? Because even pigs with badges know to try to speak with a suspect or their representative before publishing allegations.

The big thing right now is these GenAI “figurine toys” of zookeepers or zoo management. And instead they shared a version drawn by one of their staff!

Go give them some love, if you’re on FB. Too many zoos are really getting into GenAI and just whitewashing the climate change / copyright issues that come with it, so I want this zoo to get as much positive feedback as we can muster for making a better choice.

It is my opinion that Alan Hazelden is a spineless coward who chose civility over his responsibility to protect vulnerable minorities in his employ. He has chosen the feelings of his workers who cannot stand to be on the same credits as someone marked with a kiwifarms thread and a few bitter callout posts from jilted TME ex-friends over the safety and dignity of someone who delivered under-time and under-budget for a video-game with a development cycle of under a month. He has suppressed my completed and paid-for work and severed me from his community where I'd begun to feel at home. He has already been spoken to, attempts were made to reason with him by others in his circle, including other developers who had hired me and know the entire story with me, warts and all, and nothing has changed.

It is clear that he cannot handle the pressure of having a marked transfem be associated with him, but he also, embarrassingly, cannot handle the pressure of deleting my work, forcing me to upload my own score separately and tell the story honestly. He has attempted to placate me, told me he wanted to find a satisfactory solution for both of us, which of course can't include reversing his decision and also conveniently involves me disguising my role in his project further for the sake of his SEO. There's two ways I can take this, either he knows what he has done is indefensible and is offering to move heaven and earth to keep me contented without taking on any risk to himself whatsoever, or he is only acting this way because he knows I pose a credible threat to him and would simply cast off any other marked transfem with no such care. Both of these possibilities are disgusting and enraging to me.

I cannot in good conscience recommend that any transfem work for him, or any minority with a baseline expectation of artificially expanded criminal records for that matter, and I'd urge anyone working for him who fits that description to exercise caution. I was warned before starting work with him by someone in his community who told me he had previously kicked another transfem member from his developer discord server without trial after receiving similar pressure, and I ignored them, assuming that providing something of value to him would save me. Unfortunately, he has shown himself to be someone in a position of power who will simply fall for the first trick in the transmisogynist handbook if given the opportunity. To save the feelings of his employees, he will discard you and delete your contributions with impunity, while saying to your face that he understands how you feel.

Go to doctor's appointment AND get them to agree to the prescription.

Go home and see that of the two the doctor said they would send over only one is showing up on your pharmacy app.

Call pharmacy.

Be on hold for like half an hour.

Finally get ahold of someone who is exhausted and woefully underpaid and ask them to check if the other one did get sent and the system isn't showing it or if it just didn't get sent.

They inform you it did not get sent.

Call doctor's office.

Navigate several phone menus to get a person.

Ask person what's up; they confirm the doctor didn't send it and offer to send them a message about it.

Agree.

Wait for an hour or so to see the script get sent over on the app OR for a call back.

Get a call back: the doctor was literally on her way out of the building but agreed to come back and send the script over.

Wait for script to show up on pharmacy app.

It does not, and now it's too late to call the doctor's office, as it's closed.

Wake up the next morning at 9am and check the app.

No prescription.

Call pharmacy to see if it got sent.

On hold for half an hour.

No it was not sent.

Call doctor's office and navigate phone menu.

Get ahold of someone who confirms the script wasn't sent, they offer to send the doctor a message.

Agree.

Wait for them to send the script or call back.

The script sends and is on the app! It should be filled today!

Insurance issue, script is delayed.

Wait an hour or so and see if it gets cleared up on it's own.

It does not.

Call pharmacy.

On hold until the automated system does a courtesy disconnect, roughly 45 minutes.

It's been almost 24 hours and you do not have the meds that are meant to help with the severe pain you're in.

Let out a deep, pained sigh and call the pharmacy again.

Process continues in this way until god sees fit to have mercy on your soul and give you your goddamn medicine, could be a few hours, could be a few days, you never know!!

And, jsyk, this is the process for at least HALF of my prescriptions, and also remarkably similar to the process for specialist referrals, only that takes EVEN LONGER.

this ceasefire is not an end to our solidarity with gaza. we will all be here waiting and praying for palestine to be wholly liberated from the occupation and watch her people be happy and free.

in the meantime, please keep donating to palestinian fundraisers. it is essential to support families planning on rebuilding.

alaa is a mother of two young children. her fundraiser has been verified. i request you to help her by sharing and donating to her gofundme.
