Thanks for writing this beautiful tribute. I didn’t know Alexa, but am inspired by them. It is hard to look clear-eyed at the sheer amount of suffering and cruelty in this world without shifting into calculus (i.e., only pursuing cost-effective solutions) or complacency. It sounds like Alexa was steadfast in their compassion, taking seriously the moral worth of each creature, and doing everything in their power to give them better lives. The world is a better place for them having been here, and I am so sorry they are gone.
