You are a Hugin master!

@BarnabyWalters @acegiak Some of our studies are according to the international standard that we are unable to disregard...

@BarnabyWalters @acegiak ...But we are grateful for the feedback and will definitely review how the question is asked in our surveys!/Sofie

@ztsamudzi understood, thanks for taking the time to explain!

@BarnabyWalters Of course! :) It's going to be a major constraining factor in popular movements if we can't fix the left's racism problem.

@BarnabyWalters Surely violence is a mitigating factor in involvement, but it's an avoidance of the space altogether, not just on streets.

Hey Stockholm @Arlanda, why do your airport customer surveys have a “What is your gender? (Do not ask the participant, just note down)” question with only “Male/Female” options? I know you want to break results down by background variables, but having your staff just make assumptions about people’s gender, without asking them, providing non-binary options, the option not to say, or even TELLING THEM IT’S BEING COLLECTED is straight-up rude. Not only that, but the results of the survey will reflect your staff’s biases, as you’re requiring them to make assumptions. Doing a better job is easy. Just explicitly ask people, providing Female/Male/Other/Prefer Not To Say options at the very least.

@BarnabyWalters I get that. But what I'm speaking about specifically is a university space where cops aren't allowed on campus.

@BarnabyWalters Oh no, be careful you don’t start identifying with your captors.

@BarnabyWalters Yup, check out ruv.is/sarpurinn/ruv/… approx 25min in

For example, I’d love to read something like Terry Bisson’s Meat, but where the narrators are repulsed by the fact that humans have to traverse 3D space, most often between artifically constructed bounded areas, in order to achieve their goals.

@BarnabyWalters haha, awesome! Glad I was able to corrupt you into drinking a non-water beverage!

The llama thing was about a couple llamas that escaped and caught national attention. CNN even had a llama in the studio last night. http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/surprise/2015/02/26/sun-city-llamas-on-the-loose-abrk/24068713/
