Definitely foxes and some others already mentioned. Maybe ringtails. In my region we call them ‘cacomixtle’ which sounds cacophonic (and cute). They’re like raccoon-cats.

Early 30s. API debacle.

Sorry if I’m late. I spend a miserable week every month before my period. Hormones affect much more than we think. It wouldn’t hurt to check your hormonal health.

That’s me. It’s like being a smart idiot.

My roller skates came with a defect, after all, and I lost the momentum. Now I’m drawing. Well, no, actually, I haven’t done that in a while… I think now I’m entering poetry territory. Is there a “hobbies, in general, just tell us about yours” community? We are enough for something like that.

This only applies to people left from centrism (progressivism, anarchism, socialism…). “Wokes”, “liberals”, “tankies”, I’ll put them all as leftists in this text.

What is your least favorite thing about the Fediverse or Lemmy?

Lemmy. That interest in politics and critical thinking in general end when we arrive to topics do not concerning the life of the average lemming.

News about technology? Oh, yes, capitalism is wrong and Google is ruining this and let’s do that… Feminism? Meh. Antiracism. Anticolonialism. Humanities defense? Whatever.

Of course, why would women or POC or the third world or non-STEM things would interest a bunch of first world STEM white men? Empathy or congruence with leftism? What’s that? (sarcasm)

And it’s tiring that you see how much time they spend talking about U.S. politics or online privacy, but not a thought can be put when you point out a non-privileged problem. I’ve even seen people get downvoted for saying something they posted or said was problematic.

In my region, leftists often separate completely from these spaces because of this. I don’t want to, I like it here and, overall, my experience is positive and enriching. But yeah, this is one of the worst aspects of Lemmy in my opinion.

Also, neurodiversity, mental illness, and basic mental health care. People are discovering they are autistic, ADHDers, etc. They’re learning how to prevent depression or how to apply DBT tools (e.g., for emotional regulation, for judging less). It’s amazing.

God, it’s always the obtuse colonizers…

Yes! Actually, Mexican farmers are still fighting to preserve their numerous (really numerous, really rich) variety of corn because capitalists and allies are pushing for monopolies (hence, the same seeds), for profitable crops (hence, the best seeds for that purpose), and rare seeds are in danger. It took centuries to get there…

Mexican ecological fights are bloody.

Personal rant. And I do not understand in which state of mind you need to be to kill someone protecting special corn seeds or butterflies. For what? More money that is not needed because there’s enough already in the world? Go take it from the guys that retain it! Leave Nature, and their animals, and the people alone, FFS.

The neurodivergent urge…
