“The dominance panacea is so out of proportion that entire schools of training are based on the premise that if you can just exert adequate dominance over the dog, everything else will fall into place. Not only does it mean that incredible amounts of abuse are going to be perpetrated against any given dog, probably exacerbating problems like unreliable recalls and biting, but the real issues, like well-executed conditioning and the provision of an adequate environment, are going to go unaddressed, resulting in a still-untrained dog, perpetuating the pointless dominance program. None of this is to say that dogs aren’t one of those species whose social life appears to lend itself to beloved hierarchy constructs. But, they also see well at night, and no one is proposing retinal surgery to address their non-compliance or biting behavior. Pack theory is simply not the most elegant model for explaining or, especially, for treating problems like disobedience, misbehavior or aggression. People who use aversives to train with a dominance model in mind would get a better result with less wear and tear on the dog by using aversives with a more thorough understanding of learning theory, or, better yet, forgoing aversives altogether and going with the other tools in the learning theory tool box. The dominance concept is simply unnecessary.”

“You remember people who aren't there. At least, you do for a while and then the memories fade and you don't really know why." "Narine, what you're describing is called false memory. Things you're sure you remember correctly that just aren't real. Another term for it is the Mandela Effect, and it's—" "Mundane people call it that, but it's a modern term. And I believe Mandela did die earlier in one timeline. There was an assassination attempt, but we stopped the plot from going forward." Jacob opened his mouth, then closed it and crossed his arms over his chest. "It's normal." "It is normal." She leaned forward. "For you, it's very normal. Because you're a mage and a traveler. Your memories are not false and they never have been. Your parents and your teachers probably called you forgetful—called you imaginative if they were being nice—but you're not forgetful." He swallowed, and she could see the beginnings of belief dawning in his expression. She kept going. "You don't remember less, Jacob, you remember more. You remember the possibilities of a time that wasn't meant to be.”
