  • Ok, so this post was reported as non-gaming.

    I will admit it’s not exactly gaming related, so I will agree to that point, however I believe its important enough to leave up.

    Not like anyone cares, but I don’t always go by reports, I also look at votes, and replies. Seems like most of the folks are interested in this, so unless I get major pushback, I’m gonna leave it up. I don’t think I’ve ever said what or why I remove or leave up a post but today I feel the need to let you know the reason. And to anyone who did report, dont take this comment as a hint or feel like its a personal attack. Y’all keep reporting when you feel like it, I wouldn’t have even looked at this post without the report, so it at least got eyes on it. I like to leave the community to itself, its a great community and I rarely get reports. For one of the biggest/bigger communities on lemmy.ca we get very little reports.

  • as a ~40 year old Canadian looking from the outside at the US election

    this one was crazy for sure but the last couple have been kinda out there to say the least. before the internet we Canadians always knew when it coming, but it was never covered in a 24h news cycle like now. other than daily newspaper (that was a physical unit of paper that was like social media, where we could not really choose who to follow other than politically left or right and only updated every 24h) we’d get news at 6-7pm and 11pm. then the noon news showed up. while there have always been issues between right and left, there had never been violence on the scale we see now. like Reagan getting shot, happened just after i was born, so not like it was all sunshine and rainbows but nothing like the scale that’s seen now.

    this could be from the mass news reporting and social media, or people have just gone off the rails. I’m guessing option 2.


  • If these asshats were vacuuming stuff up instead of just blowing over to the next yard, I’d be a little less annoyed.

    when i was not so poor and still owned a lawn care business, i actually had a lawn and leaf vacuum attached to trailers. they work great, blow the leaves into a pile, and suck them up. had smaller versions that were the width of a lawn mower-ish for where it was not feasible to blow. the smaller ones didnt work that well with leaves but great in the spring after spring clean up.






  • im a bit of a bird nerd here, and while they do put pack a lot in, its not really fat as you and i would think of it. 90% of what you see is just floof to keep warm.

    my b&g macaw will put on a little weight in fall even tho hes a tropical chicken. altho admitly that could just be me feeding him differently/different times, cause of the lack of light through the winter.
