One way to look at it is different standards - my mother-in-law, also somewhat old, wouldn’t be caught dead without makeup and hair, regardless of the reason. You assume she’s dressing for others. She’s dressing for both herself and how society use to be.

Owls in Towels (owlsintowels.org)

Came across this on Mastodon: https://owlsintowels.org/ Apologies if dupe but I don’t remember it.

From https://glammr.us/@overholt/114575283647930047

“Wildlife rehabilitators often wrap owls in fabric so they can be weighed, treated, and fed. If not, the owls get in a flap.

The result? Loads of pictures of #owlsintowels“

Would it be possible to make an option to flip colors somewhat as indentations occur? I think the first three colors are red/green or green/red, but can’t tell.

Howdy. Love the app, but something’s confused me for a while. I’m on two iOS devices, and when I read on one, it doesn’t seem to be read on the other - I wind up seeing the device on both.

I have “mark read on scroll” on, as well as “auto hide read posts”, but it still keeps happening. Is this a Voyager issue? A Lemmy.world issue? Many thanks!

Okay, bad wording, he’s pro-Ukrainian. Good.

I’m offended. President Camacho wanted the best for his people, and the protagonist wasn’t a buffoon.

An underwater camera set up 55 years ago to try and photograph the Loch Ness Monster has been found by accident by a robot submarine.

The ocean-going yellow sub - called Boaty McBoatface - was being put through trials when its propeller snagged the mooring for the 1970s camera system.

It is believed it was lowered 180m (591ft) below the loch's surface by the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau, a group set up in the 1960s to uncover the existence of Nessie in the waters.

No footage of Nessie has been found on the camera, but one of the submarine's engineers was able to develop a few images of the loch's murky waters.

It bulks it up, it stretches it out, it lowers the taste some.

No, I don’t know what the story behind that is.

Saw an owl tonight! (lemmy.world)

Got this photo from my phone from the street. He was loud, hooted every 20-30 seconds. Really cool!

Dark humor is like food. Not everybody gets it.

Went to IKEA the other day and came across these stuffed animals/hand puppets based off the Snowy Owl. Very soft and pretty darn cute

Bigfoot encounter in Louisiana (www.dailymail.co.uk)

No real evidence, just an encounter with what was probably a black bear.

Seriously, they couldn’t put in a 1/I/l test? That’s half of what I want a different font for.

This is how our local food bank does it. When you give money to them, you’re not actually buying groceries. You’re paying for trucks, gasoline and drivers who go to the various grocery’s’ warehouses, who take what is nearing “throw out” and make it available for people.

This is why I laugh whenever a local grocery store has a “hunger food drive“ - there, you are literally just buying groceries for other people. Whereas our food bank prides itself on being able to feed people for $.20 a meal - it’s a huge force multiplier.

Give to your local area food bank.

That’s weird that this is a new story - this made the rounds a year ago. But thanks for sharing! https://www.timesofisrael.com/miracle-plant-thought-to-be-extinct-claimed-to-have-been-rediscovered-in-turkey/
