They absolutely do! Some animals mate for life. Some mourn when one of their own dies (see whales, elephants). Parrots who are lonely may self-mutilate. Dogs can remember you and get so excited to see you, even after being separated for years. Interspecies friendships exist. It’s like… I don’t see how people can still think animals DON’T have emotions.

They just don’t make faces like humans do. Although interestingly, dogs developed eyebrow muscles that give them more human-like expressions, which therefore strengthens our bond with them.

I read this wiki a while back. Elephants are very smart animals. Highly recommend the read!

That’s why I love the MH series - plenty of value, even just solo’ing it. I’m still trying to finish up World, doing everything I want to do. Unfortunately I have to put a lot of time into these games to “git gud” lol. And of course at the same time, real life responsibilities calls. xD Not quite ready to move on just yet!

RIP Joe Strummer, one of the greats.

Hey don’t fix what isn’t broken

Wow good on Thailand! I’m shocked not sooner considering all the lady-boy stuff going on lol. Think they’d be down for that kinda stuff.

Yeah he’s 65, he’s gotta stop doing this and get help. It’s not the 90s anymore…

4.5 min video of the exchange. Very satisfying watch!

Asshole cop vs asshole citizen is what the video showed. I’m far from a cop lover but I can see how it feels on the other side of a rolled up window where you can’t see what’s going on and the person inside’s being non-compliant. Don’t fuck around and talk shit while rolling up your tinted window when a cop pulls you over. People in this country are strapped up. Especially in a concealed carry state like Florida that is full of insane people. Cops are on edge for a reason when they’re doing a traffic stop. If I did what Tyreek Hill did, I’d fully expect to be asked to step out or pulled out of my car

Excessive use of force by the cop who clearly wanted to escalate. Tyreek Hill also wasn’t being smart in the way that was handled. We already know how paranoid and trigger happy law enforcement can be. People like to act tough on the internet, but I wouldn’t DARE roll up tinted windows during a police stop knowing how shit could escalate. I’m trying to have them see my hands at all times. That’s exactly the kind of shit that can happen when you’re just trying to get home safe. Whatever it is, it’s not worth it.

I love this theme. This is an epic performance. Thanks for sharing!

Joined! I still visit the subreddits, but it’d be nice to get some NFL traction on Lemmy. :)

Woah. There’s just something vaguely humanlike about the disc-shaped faces that owls have lol.

I haven’t played Rise, but the Monster Hunter series is pretty grindy in general

Not sure what other NSFW instances off the top of my head. I think lemmit.online mirrors different subreddits, so maybe some NSFW options there

They live in temperatures over 90°F / 32°C on this little rock shelf near the surface. Their numbers have dropped as low as 35 in the past, but last I heard they’re doing relatively well. Amazing little guys. Highly recommend coming out to see them - and their cousins in Death Valley, of course!

I see them more often in the SF bay area. They look clunky and ridiculous, plus they draw so much attention (when you should probably being trying to avoid attention).

Anecdotal, but I think there’s some kind of immunity component. My parents grew up in a mosquito infested country. When we visited said country, us kids were bitten up while my parents were fine. If it was genetics, you think it would’ve been passed on to us. The locals commonly joked that mosquitos like “new blood.” You could see tourists with itchy red bite reactions while the locals were fine.

Oh wow, this is a REALLY cool visualization. I’m going to show this to friends who can’t read sheet music. Thanks for sharing!

Also I can’t remember seeing a Youtube video that old. Pretty OG.

Damn that might be mine too. We didn’t get to have video games when I was little. Then I discovered PC gaming via Runescape😂
