Being half crazy from PTSD I think about safety a lot. There's a constant
discourse about safety on here and it's missing one thing that when you see it,
it's like the emperor has no clothes.

What's missing is a deep appreciation for the reality that people are not
rational actors. I'm not a rational actor, you're not a rational actor, and the
people who we respect are not rational actors.

This lack of rationality manifests in hundreds of way which cannot be fully
explored here, and of course it has impacts on things beyond safety. But, just
some things to think about in terms of non-rationality with regards to safety:

1) Safety is generally going to be listed as a top level concern, but people
will not prioritize safety in their own actions, and imposing safety top down
will be understood as stifling. That people always say they care about safety
first and foremost, but consistently prioritize other factors when deciding what
(if any) social media to use demonstrates this particular non-rationality.

2) People aren't good at correctly evaluating what is or isn't a safety threat.
Someone feeling something is or isn't a safety threat more or less just shows
what makes them uncomfortable or what they are ignorant of. Essentially an
entirely different analysis has to be used, because when relying on discomfort
and ignorance, people are only as accurate as chance when they evaluate safety.
As an example, people routinely express concerns for my safety because I ride
the bus, but they are actually at much greater risks in a car. They are ignorant
about busses, uncomfortable around poorer people, and rating their own ability
to navigate a dangerous situation (driving) too highly.

3) Correctly identifying a safety risk is not the same thing as correctly
identifying a remediation for that risk which makes you safer. I know someone
who, after an internationally notorious mass shooting in our state targeting her
community, bought a gun. I told her at the time, having this gun makes everyone
in her household considerably more unsafe and does nothing to prevent the
situation which makes her feel endangered. She still has it and we all just have
to hope that far more likely tragedies from "accidents" to "domestic violence"
to "suicide" do not play out.

4) Creating an impression of safety is dangerous. Removing nazis from a space is
a matter of comfort which I support. However, you cannot allow users to imagine
that nazis cannot read any public message if they really want to. So, a lot of
the blocklist initiatives... I think there are good things that blocklists
provide but safety is not one of them. I need to post like there are nazis on
here (because there are) even if I can't see them. Creating an impression that
there are not nazis on here can prompt people to take safety risks they should
not take when it comes to posting information which could identify them.

@JubalBarca@scholar.social

Just a note, the ottoman empire used an arabic based script to write turkish.
The prestige dialect of the ottomans was not intelligible with the turkish
language of the masses, which is what the modern standard came from. Translating
this may require a specialist if it is turkish in an obsolete alphabet written
in an archaic prestige dialect.

@flatchulancelot@cupoftea.social aaa I dug around more using the word 'grafting'
and found the exact term I was looking for thanks!

apparently grafting is for the artificial process, whereas inosculation is for
when trees just embrace each other for the vibes
