i believe they’re @ing you because they’re posting from Mastadon.
in most places i’ve lived, my physical neighbours did not want to be known, and did not want to know anyone else, either. granted, most of them really only used their apartments/houses as a very expensive sleeping place and nothing more. they didn’t really live in their houses; it was just where they usually slept between working.
even when the neighbours were friendly, there were no common spaces and the housing too small to accommodate get-togethers, and no third places to go to. and the friendly neighbours were always apart of the conspicuously racist pensioner cabal.
All the time spent thinking how to solve a problem is also work.
try telling that to every manager i’ve ever had.
i think it would be more symbolic to extend the rainbow peace flag over it.
growing up, the most common ‘counterargument’ (read: dismission) to ‘global warming’ i heard was ‘great, i love summer!’
i had to become a singer before i had the lung capacity to sigh hard enough.
Did you look for a nest or another bird in the original shrub?
i didn’t see anything in the bush at first glance. i tried to see if it was leading me somewhere, but it didn’t seem like it. i didn’t want to stress them out by approaching them too quickly or digging thru the bush.
they did seem very small, so it’s possible they don’t know how to feed themself. it’s not too far, so i can try checking on them sometime soon. i don’t want to invade their home, tho.
my guess is it was trying to get you to help one of its friends or something.
that was my first guess, but it didn’t seem like it was leading me anywhere.
i’m a little worried now.
I’d have had a good search around the area befriending crows can actually bring you some benifit like shiny gifts
when i was homeless, i shared my food with a crow. i got them to bring me coins by feeding them double portions when they brought monies.
or in some cases crow bodyguards as they actually recognise individuals as friends etc.
that’s my current relationship to the corvids in town. a long time ago i rescued a magpie from two seagulls, and since then all the corvids no longer fly away when i come near them. the magpies even defended me from a seagull one day!
but they otherwise don’t approach me, and we don’t ‘communicate’.
that was my first guess, but after i tried getting back on the path they only kept putting grass on my feet. i tried holding still, backing away, moving toward them, moving back into the grass, making noises, and checked in the bush — it just kept putting grass on me. i didn’t immediately see anything. i was afraid of scaring or upsetting them, so i left.
someone else suggested they’re a juvenile that doesn’t know how to feed themself.
yeah.
that’s all i’ve got to say, but i have a strong urge to say it.
she’s alluding to the fact that these characters — the ‘soyjack’ and ‘gigachad’ — are historically, and still actively are, alt-right charicatures. together with their friends, ‘tradwife’ and ‘doomer (girl)’: they represent misogynistic, racist, antisemitic, and white supremacist tropes.
this assumes that:
with the increase in ‘productivity’ over the last century, if we reduced our expectations, and stopped letting monopoly money run our entire society, and stopped burning surplus resources because it’s ‘unsold’ or would drive down prices: we wouldn’t need to work even 20% what is expected of us now.
there’s a bot that will do this for you over on lemmy.world. i think you’d like it better over there.
