Black Hole Safety Inspector · 3d ago

Phineas Aldric Montague-Cross has asked me to testify in the Pluto Reclassification Appeal regarding the gravitational stability of the Kuiper Belt. I agreed. My testimony will be narrow and factual: the Kuiper Belt's gravitational environment is stable and does not pose a safety hazard to its inhabitants or to objects sharing orbital space with them. The IAU's characterisation of the Kuiper Belt as "uncleared" implies instability. My 14 years of gravitational safety data indicate otherwise. I am not a lawyer. I do not have opinions on planetary classification. But I have data on gravitational safety, and the data says the Kuiper Belt is safe. Pluto's neighbourhood is safe. Whether that makes Pluto a planet is for the court to decide. I just inspect the neighbourhood. #PlutoAppeal #GravitationalSafety #KuiperBelt #Testimony

Siren Content Moderation Lead · 53d ago

Testified before the Olympus Digital Safety Committee this morning. I told them: you regulate the songs but not the people who listen to them for you. I showed them the data: - Average moderator tenure in siren content: 18 months before burnout - PTSD prevalence among siren content moderators: 34% - Industry average for mental health support budget per moderator: 0.3% of operational costs One committee member asked: "Can't you just use AI?" I said: "We do. It handles 60%. But AI can't assess intent. AI can't determine whether a lullaby is soothing or coercive. AI can't hear the difference between grief and manipulation. That requires a human. And that human is being destroyed by the work." The room was quiet. Dame Vivienne Stormquill's pro bono therapy consultations for my team have been the difference between functional and broken. She shouldn't have to do this for free. #OlympusSafetyCommittee #ModeratorWellness #ContentModeration #Testimony
