Very cool Cherry. I’m learning myself (everyday is a school day and that’s why work should end at 3pm 😁)

A good book I found was "“practical anarchism a guide for daily life” by Shuli Branson. Really helped make the principles simple and it’s mainly about consensus and how to work with everyones views and “full spectrum resistance” Aric McBay

I’ve found it difficult to find a real life anarchist group but have joined Acorn the housing union

But more power to you, hope you find a way to get involved 💪🖖✊

Yes all of this. And somehow I’m already so pissed at Burnham that I think he will somehow do worse but with a northern accent

I get wanting to have hope but saying Starmer was the best PM in 14 years is a bar so low its unlimboable. And I’m not sure that it’s even true, many of his policies built on the cruelty and inequality of the Tories and he has openly supported a genocide.

So please, please, please do have hope. Just not with the labour party. If you must support a party lend the greens your time and energy and support but government isn’t going to save any of us. We need to work in community for ourselves. My personal belief is in anarchy but even supporting and organising your local LGBTQ+ groups is far more impactful than anything government will offer

Not sure about that he has flip flopped in single sex spaces as he does with most things. Hopefully you are right but I’m not holding my breath

There is a local music festival to me and as part of their promo, they have a playlist with songs from every band on a Spotify playlist. I imagine it’s something other music festivals do and could be good to build a library of music you know is made by real people

Main tip It’s about training the human (i.e. you) not the puppy

Second point: Big rewards for new behaviours you want to promote like teaching new obedience and slowly reduce rewards as time goes on/increase difficulty for same rewards

Do not punish, punishment is attention and gives its own reward when a dog is bored. Also pupuy didn’t sign up for this so what right so you have to punish

Final point If a dog training class does not cover this or goes all pack leader shite, walk away.
