A #ttrpg nerd and a #rodent lover.
Pfp is my #hamster, Mister Peanut Butter, looking shocked at me taking a picture of him while he’s busy grooming himself. Banner picture is of my two #cavy boars, Oreo (right) and Coffecake (left), who are claiming that I have never fed them once and will soon starve to death, despite the full food bowl behind them.
@LemmyKnowsBest not sure what you are picking up on, but I think our #mastodon server runs well partly because our admin works for Google and can bring his expertise over here. I have mixed feelings about that. He is very obviously a fan of the big tech companies and seemed a bit miffed that we all got so upset about #Threads trying to #federate
@Viking_Hippie they also have never felt full once in their life. It’s not something their brain is wired to experience. They remind me of this constantly, as seen in my banner pic https://cdn.masto.host/dicecamp/media_attachments/files/112/026/721/807/170/516/original/8136498ea948dba2.jpg
@Viking_Hippie Cavies are like Rabbits, but are generally hungrier. They like all the vegetables.
However, their normal diet is pellets and hay. They get very excited when they get to have veggies
@pteryx @196 fun fact about child development: Kids don’t develop proper Theory of Mind until they are about 7 years old. Before the age of 7 every child is a little sociopath that is barely capable of comprehending that other people also have feelings.
Its not impossible for them to develop empathy, though it’s hard. You can get those Empathy neurons firing by forcing the kid to think about other people’s feelings at least once a day. So, any kid with good Empathy just has good parents.
@sbv they tend to see clips on either YouTube shorts, TikTok, or incorporated into other things. They don’t need to watch the actual show to think Homander is cool
@onlinepersona @thegiddystitcher that’s actually what I am doing. I found I can just follow all these peertube users from Mastodon, so that’s what I do

@alvvayson Existing research was about “how do we stop the bugs from circling our lights?”. This is about *why* the bugs circle the lights. It artificially triggers the dorsal reflex, which disorients the bugs.
Unless you try to take a picture of them. The autofocus spooks them
What the fuck is going on over there in @196, and how high was I when I followed that community from over here?
You are getting quarantined to a Meme list. Get out of my feed
@LoamImprovement @Anticorp I think you don’t understand how public arguments work
Currently thinking of using boiled wool. It seems the best overall. Thanks for pointing me towards it!
fantastic. In case I want to use a cloak pin, would the waterproofing be completely ruined if I stuck a pin through it?
@Peppycito Since this is for a ruana cloak (which may result in me deciding to use a cloak pin) would the waterproofing be ruined if I stuck a pin through it
one little problem that I just realized is that since this is for a ruana cloak, I may want to use a cloak pin. This would ruin pretty much every waterproofed fabric I’ve looked at so far. Would boiled wool still keep its water resistance after sticking a pin the thickness of a nail through it?
> reddit is a good place
Are you sure about that?
