Don't panic, I'm just a metal girl

Avatar: selfie of me, smiling into the camera. I have a feminine half-asian face, long hair tied back and I'm wearing round glasses with a golden frame, as well as my favorite striped sweater (red, black, purple, beige, bordeaux).

The fact that queer kids are never indoctrinated into straightness from reading about countless hetero relationships, but the mere whisper of the word gay instantly grooms straight kids for homosexual lifestyles really just goes to show how fabulous it is being queer.
Every hackspace has:
- a bunch of queers that are all poly and half of them are sleeping together
- some old men there for the woodworking.
- some old linux users with strong opinioms on linux (that u disagree with)

Dieses Video von Oslo #Pride geht mir gerade sehr nahe, weil es genau die Gründe zeigt, warum ich als cis-hetero Mann in der Öffentlichkeit immer gut sichtbar Regenbogen-Pins/Buttons trage.

Ich will einfach, dass queere Menschen sich in meiner Nähe sicher fühlen. Dass sie sich nicht verstellen müssen und einfach sie selbst sein können. Auch wenn vor ihnen ein Typ wie ich mit Resting Bitchface sitzt.

RSS never tracked you.
Email never throttled you.
Blogs never begged for dopamine.
The old web wasn’t perfect.
But it was yours.

Wildlife rehabilitation workers have to wrap up sharp-clawed owls during treatment for their own protection as well as the owls’. And then they take pictures for their blog Owls in Towels. https://owlsintowels.org via @metafilter
Owls in Towels (@owlsintowels@earthstream.social)

35 Posts, 1 Following, 2.81K Followers · Bird handlers and vets often wrap owls so they can be weighed and fed. If not, the owls get in a flap.
The result? Loads of pictures of #owlsintowels

@vmbrasseur Thank you for that. Instant follow.
@vmbrasseur
Owlyfans content, yay!
@vmbrasseur @overholt @metafilter one of my favoritest (yes, am making it up) follows
@overholt @metafilter It looks really pissed off. And it's understandable.

@overholt

I think the burrito is angry 😆

@overholt @metafilter

It looks like an owl in a hoodie! (Or a member of a religious order.)

@overholt @metafilter
I was a Maine rehabber for over 20 years. I remember the first owl. She was very young. I called our vet after I got her home to see when I could bring her in. He said " I hope you have heavy gloves". I was like, ah, no, she and I are just sitting here on the tailgate of the truck. I could feel his head shaking through the phone lol.
@debrashannon @overholt @metafilter I wish I remembered what I had done in a similar situation. I was in grad school; a girl I knew had injured her foot and couldn't drive her standard transmission. She called me and said a baby great horned owl had fallen onto her deck, and would I drive it to wildlife rehab. I got there; her cat was looking at the bird like WTF is this, and the owl was looking back like "don't even think about it." I think somehow we got the owl into a box...

@overholt @metafilter

I can’t quite tell what emotion that owl is projecting. I just know it looks like it’s what I feel like most days right now.

@overholt @metafilter that look of "Whoo the fuck are you"
@overholt OwlsInTowels.org is the most beneficial use of technology I've seen in a long time.
@overholt @metafilter
Danke für den Hinweis :)
@overholt @metafilter amazing, the FAQ page is pure genius
@overholt @metafilter Now this owl is a frood who knows where their towel is.
@LordCaramac @overholt @metafilter a hoopy frood! or possibly a hooty frood

@overholt @metafilter

I hear this owl proclaiming "REDRUM, REDRUM..."

The towel stood between this human and REDRUM!

@overholt @metafilter

Big duvet day energy with this owl and I'm here for it

@overholt @metafilter

A hearty "Thank You Very Much!" to all the wildlife rehabbers out there who help owls and other critters survive! And thanks to all who support the rehab workers, who are mostly kind-hearted and dedicated volunteers.

@overholt @metafilter @geekmomprojects They actually have a Mastodon account you can directly follow here!

The last episodes of the Handmaid's Tale are going to be intense!
@overholt @metafilter why does he look like he has a quest for me?
@overholt @metafilter
Finally, the Superb Owls we were promised.
@overholt Uh, they have a mastodon feed: @owlsintowels
@overholt @metafilter that's a picture of Grace Jones

@overholt @metafilter

Douglas Adams was right. A towel is the most incredibly useful thing.

@overholt @metafilter

Do owls in towels move their bowels?
