I am not a scientist (duh) but I don't see why the dog domestication argument is always between hunter vs scavenger. It always comes down to these two options (I've read a lot of dog books).
Seems more likely to me that it would have come about from deliberate feeding rather than scavenging or hunting food. Like, humans across the world and across cultures all do this really specific thing with animals: feed them. Seems likely to me that feeding the wolf was just the first step in the domestication process.
I agree with Derr that scavenging seems unlikely given that plenty of animals scavenge from humans and haven't become domesticated so far. I also see Wynne's point that the hunting story seems a little too romanticised to be based in reality. But what's the best way to make an animal tolerate you, if not like you? Give it something to eat.

my favorite part about being a alterhuman?
i guess all of it besides the fact I have to say "yes I'm still human" and not "boo screw you can you not clearly see I've got the coolest hyena mane ever" in an incoherent jumble of growls, laughs, and howls and have the world understand.
Besides the fact i have to wait until I'm alone to roll around on the floor and chew on things mindlessly because then everyone would bother me if I did.
Besides the fact that I cant stay upside down for too long before hurting even though I distinctly recall being able to before.
Besides the fact that when I have so much stuff everywhere because it makes my den feel like a home, everyone yells at me that I'm a mess.
Besides the fact that whenever I go somewhere I'm upset because i'd much rather be out racing in the woods not bothering about the society yelling across the pavement.
Besides the fact that so often I will feel plain uncomfortable in my skin and body with no proper release or comfort until the moment passes.
Besides the fact that I can't just stop speaking a language the majority understands and speak in a way that feels real to me in my mouth and in my mind.
oh but i mostly hate the fact that i can't find the right jacket of mine to sew my therian and emotional support dog patches onto
Other then that, being an alterhuman is great and I'm happy to be in this community :3

nudges you with my nose and looks at you with sad eyes
just a little pet? perhaps right on my head? maybe a little scratch behind the ear? just a tiny one?

picture this: youre sitting next to me on the couch, a little closer than we started but were not quite cuddling yet. the movie were watching is okay, but weve been talking so much it's been hard to follow. you don't mind. my phone buzzes, and i pick it up to answer a text, "sorry," i say, "just gotta answer this." "oh, it's..." and you've seen it. when i tapped on the text box what came up was, well. this.
Tumblr media
"it's no big deal," you say, "but what the hell kind of keyboard is that?" but i don't answer, im too busy swiping away, and im bad at it, i mean im really struggling with this thing, and the message im typing is really not even that long and it's taking me so much longer than it should and i finally finish typing and i say, "oh shit, he's actually burning his house down, that's crazy," and you say "what, yeah sure, but what kind of keyboard is that," and i say it's just my keyboard and that i'm not sure what you mean and you sit just a little further away for a while

Based on “dog thoughts” by Anna Haifisch.

Wake Up Sid was a very surprising movie. It was released in a very brief period where movies about mundane love and small things were well received within the Bollywood industry (this is my personal theory and I've no evidence to back it up) — it didn’t have spicy dance numbers and action scenes, it didn’t have a thrilling, action filled plot. But in the two hours or so that it demands from the audience, it unravels a beautiful story about the transformation of a man-child, the development of a childish love in a woman that is steadfastly mature, and what it means to carve out your place in this world as a clueless, newly minted adult — all against the backdrop of a Bombay that waiting for the monsoons again.
Iktara is a kind of song that’ll stick around in your brain, as it has definitely stuck around in my mind. I was charmed by it as a kid and I’m even more charmed by it now, now that the words actually resonate with me. I’m roughly in the age range that Sid and Aisha were in this movie (a fact that baffles me), and I have nothing but love and admiration for Shankar-Esaan-Loy for writing such a song — and for Konkona Sen Sharma for portraying someone I would’ve been in an alternate universe. I've translated the first few lines below; perhaps you can see what makes this song so special.
Oh re manva tu toh bawra hai,
Tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai,
Tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hai, bawre,
Kyu dikhaaye, sapne tu, sohte jaagte?
Oh mind of mine, you are but a fool,
Only you know what you think of,
Only you know what you think of, you fool,
Why do you show me dreams, sleeping and waking?

today really taught me how much training i still need— that growth in bdsm is truly nonlinear— that i’m a very sedulous but still green sub and a very captivating, intense dom.
being able to play both of these roles— to grow in BOTH directions with such absolute vulnerability and ferocity— is so necessary to me being a whole person.
i’m so grateful for my lovers, they give and show so much to be proud of, so much to adore and gush about and obsess over.
and im so grateful for my lovers because they bring the best version of myself to blazing life.

You know what I think is actually quite detrimental to dog ownership today? The focus on puppyhood and the lack of focus on adolescence. I'm not saying we shouldn't have all the resources on puppyhood we have, but I think the focus on it can leave a lot of people in a bad place when things change during adolescence.
There is a huge gap in resources for dog adolescence. You can work really really really hard during puppyhood on socialisation and setting your puppy up for success, and it can all be undone in adolescence through mismanagement due to unexpected behaviours and lack of preparation or understanding. Compared to what you can find out there for puppies, there is a dearth of information about adolescence.
Speaking as someone going through it right now, this lack of information and awareness I think has a massive impact on both the dogs and their people who weren't prepared and despite their best efforts are going through a phase that feels out of control.

you’ve prodded too much and too long at the feral dog in me , it’s cage is falling apart by the second and all it knows is to bite and gnash at the hand that disturbs it , my whole body feels like it’s going to explode , the pulsating against my chest a product of the ferocity within me, ready to come out. my brain fighting against it with the little sanity it has left, will this be the day the leash is broken and the walls come down?? do I have to bite at you to finally get u to understand? to finally feel at peace, peace in the mess of blood , flesh and organs of the dogs enemy? warm, so warm just silence and freedom
