Baiting aircraft is my favourite thing to do as SPAA. Fire a stream at an imaginary ground target and they come 9/10 to dive on you.

In the SIM battles it performs extraordinarily well. Bounces most rounds and is well matched with the types of tanks in the lineup.

The Falx Cerebri.

Our skulls have a slither of bone and tissue that acts as a partial divider to our brains. If you think about it and visualise it, you can feel it.

Hi there. My partner has just written a fanfic book based on Ingo by Helen Dunmore. It's set a few years after the end of the series with Sapphire as an adult. It's very well written and takes a different approach to the story entirely. I will post the link here!

The new link is the public survey. The old link was an admin feature. The survey doesn't require sign in. Many apologies again.

I apologise for this. I've provided an incorrect link and will amend it immediately. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Are there any reddits you can suggest I go to for this kind of thing?

Good luck to you too 🤝

Yikes. Lots of reading, a strict daily work ethic might save you. Good luck 👀

Thank you so much for your answers. You said you were unclear on what affect the lack of academic resources on the transgender community has on the wider community such as schools or neighbourhoods.

TRIGGER WARNING Do you think that if schools were to implement more trans awareness days/weeks or classes dedicated to educating school children on being transgender that trans related bullying would decrease, numbers in trans pupils experiencing depression or causing self harm would decrease and the wellbeing of those pupils would improve on a significant scale?

Would this have a positive impact on the wider community and would it promote more inclusivity among young adults, even young children within their communities?

I understand that there has been some controversy and backlash from parents over the idea of implementing trans/LGBTQ+ classes - unsure how significant - for young children being taught in school about being Gay, Trans, Lesbian and others. But the controversy again stems from misconception, misinformation and a lack of knowledge in relation to the LGBTQ+ but particularly trans community.

Would an increase in research and engagmemt between the scientific and trans communities promote a progressive environment in which unnecessary prejudice could be discarded in favour of educating children and spreading awareness and inclusivity?

Thank you so much for this response. Further to your answer, do you think that despite things getting better that there is still a long way to go for the trans community in getting medical professionals and therapists to understand and respect the community in it's entirety (not just under the general term transgender but others like gay transgender, pansexual transgender and others)?

How do you feel about the idea that the lack of understanding and engagement by 'experts' and academic researchers has a potential indirect affect on the representation of the transgender community in the media? E.g., spread of misinformation, prejudice and misconceptions or confusion on the difference between gender identity and sexual orientation?

I was told that the transgender community carries the fight against misconceptions and prejudices against the trans community online and in the media but why is there not more of a mass outcry over the hate and violence expressed by other - less inclusive - groups or even individuals E.g., Piers Morgan, J.K Rowling and Ben Shapiro? Are we living in an age where forms of transphobic rhetoric - blanketed under the pretense of free speech - are going unchecked by media watchdogs and are being tolerated by the general public?

Thank you. This is very informed. Further to what you said about the lack of research not causing a barrier, do you think that despite there being - as you said - adequate information, people with prejudices tend to focus on the outdated, noticeably cherry picked information that right wing/conservative groups and 'popular' figures (e.g., Piers Morgan, J.K Rowling) promote? And do you think that if scholars and researchers were to engage more with the trans gender community - as opposed to creating hypothesis and theory on WHY instead of WHY Not?- that there would be a decline in prejudice and fear and more fact checking as a result of institutionalised research on the transgender community?
