Rules to Teach Humans
You are the equal of everyone you meet.
      Your body is your own. 
You do not owe anyone anything.
      You are responsible for your well-being.
Your emotions are valid.
      You are responsible for your behavior.
Be honest with yourself.
      Trust your own judgement.
Be kind, not nice.
      People are not things.
 Learn as much as you can.
      Make mistakes, and learn from them.
Question authority and people speaking with authority.
      Allow your beliefs and opinions to evolve.
Know the rules of your society.
      Choose carefully when you break the rules.
Consent for anything requires an active ‘Yes’.
      ‘No’ is a complete sentence.
Help others when you can. 
      Love is worth the risks.

I threaded a serger machine for the first time ever by reading the instructions, and didn't have to re-do the setup at all. I am an accomplished human with thumbs. FEAR ME.

I've always wondered where the phrase 'nibbled to death by ducks' came from....

Adventure! Two days ago, in the midst of the rainiest day in months, my van was rear-ended at a stop light by a kid that had only had his license for two weeks.

I'm fine, the van has a crumpled bumper, but is drivable, the kid was fine, but his car needed to be towed.
