      I wonder why the softbank goose hadn’t broken out of mastodon yet. It’s been over 3 days.

        It’s made some waves on BlueSky. At least, among people in the orbit of Ed Zitron.

    Owls are not wise. They’re idiots, almost the entire skull cavity is just made of eyeballs, that’s very little left over for the brain.

      IIRC from an ornithologist talk, owls have such good evolutionary advantages (eyesight, hearing, silent flight), they don’t have to be “intelligent”. The rest of the raptors are generally considered more “intelligent” for seeking, stalking, and catching prey.

    Geese are good at guarding a property.

      Problem with geese is that often the property that they are guarding is a public footpaths.

    Never had a problem with a goose. Deer on the other hand are vile vermin who suck the life out of gardens and countryside.

      I have a buddy who’s a forest ecologist, he loves nature and all of its creatures… except for deer. If you get the right amount of booze in him he will go on like an hour long rant about how it should be everyone’s civic duty to shoot deer in the face on site.

      Apparently native Americans spent centuries reshaping all the forest in America to become giant deer factories to sustain the large population of pre colonial America. These deer factories are still making deer printers go brrr noises even after the great dying of the native population. And the European settlers who replaced them spent their extinction level effort on hunting everything else.

      So now the deer population is so overpopulated that the greatest threat to their population is disease and starvation. All while they strip the forest floor of any plants at deer height. They’ve basically sterilized American Forrest of the shrub, saplings, and undergrowth that a Forrest needs to sustain native habitats and a healthy ecology.

        We have also eradicated the wolf in many areas where they would keep the deer in check. My dog tries his best though, its on sight with deer. Hes actually gotten two of them.

          Yeah, trying to explain to people who think hunting deer is unethical or bad for nature is always difficult. There is no such thing as unaltered nature in North America, the native populations were extremely good at creating forest that could pump out enough deer to feed millions of people and hundreds of thousands wolves at the same time.

          Doing nothing is just wrecking the ecology that was shaped over hundreds if nothing thousands of years and creating systemic collapses that destroy what diversity we have left.

Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very “off topic”.

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren’t unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don’t rush mod actions. If a case doesn’t need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
