#Animals Useful Tips: How to Befriend a Cat with a Little Puppy https://www.advice.news/animals/useful-tips-how-befriend-cat-little-puppy?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

If I had the time and expertise, I would do a "Mystery creature ID" web page. (Kind of like Snopes but without the creator drama and meanness.) I would have experts weigh in with identification opinions. My goal would be to stem the thousand stupid copycat headlines of "Scientists can't identify X" that get circulated. It makes people dumber.

Contrary to common belief, you are probably not seeing a mutant, alien, or new species. If anyone wants to get this going, I would help! #animals

With a long white tail, reddish brown legs, a bright yellow-orange face, and pale lavender eyelids, the “Queen of the #Primates”—the red-shanked douc langur—is a brilliant sight within the dense forest greens of their home.

#video #animals #monkeys #vietnam #endangered #forest #conservation

🐑⤴️ https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/how-to-easily-save-a-sheeps-life

While many #animals enjoy rolling on their backs, #sheep do not. Large sheep, pregnant sheep, and sheep burdened with lots of wool are often top-heavy, making them vulnerable to toppling onto their flat backs. There, the ‘cast’ sheep is stuck like a tortoise, unable to flip back over. Luckily, it's very easy to help them.

#video #howto #helping #farms

🐸👅 https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/frog-toad-tongues-saliva-science-research-video

“#Toads nab their prey 5 times faster than the blink of an eye. How do they do it? They pop their lower jaw open, and launch their supersoft tongue at their meal, enveloping their prey. When their unique saliva hits prey at a high speed, it thins out dramatically, pouring into every nook and cranny the tongue touches. Then it becomes sticky again, drawing that meal down the hatch.”

"Breeding threatened mammals in fenced, predator-free areas is a common conservation strategy in Australia. The method is designed to protect vulnerable species and breed animals for release into the wild.

But our research – involving a cute, digging mammal known as a woylie – suggests the strategy may put animals at a distinct disadvantage once they’re fending for themselves.

We found animals bred in fenced conservation areas, known as “havens”, lost traits they need to detect and escape predators. It’s likely this made them less able to survive in the wild." #science #conservation #Australia #CaptiveBreeding #animals #nature #endangered #AnimalBehaviour #rewilding #woylies #bettongs #mammals #marsupials

I guess it is time to update the #introduction.

Hi, I am Imdat Celeste. Nice to meet you all.

I am a veteran software engineer who works as a freelancer from their home.
I *love* modernizing ancient software by carefully, slowly rewriting while it is still operating - without disruptions.

Currently I have two wonderful, awesome, really amazing clients between whom I split my time roughly about 50:50.

For the first one, I am the "Primus inter pares" in a team rewriting a 20-yo C++ & JS-based system in modern nodeJS + Typescript. My main job there is not to write code (it seems), but review PRs, review code, give coding guidelines, merge PRs, and make sure everything my team needs is there: test servers, development server, on-premise Gitlab, on-premise Mattermost, a good/respectful/lovely atmosphere, a lot of fun, and what else we need to deliver an awesome product. The team is amazing, the atmosphere is full of respect and love; I will stay with this team as long as I can.

For the second client, I am rewriting a 15+ year old system (Java, Java/Swift/Vue1.x-FE; rpc-like crap-API) using go(BE), gRPC (API) and dart/flutter (FE).
Here I am the core developer for the new client and the new back-end. The back-end is, for now, a proxy/a wrapper around the existing one. Behind that wrapper, two wonderful co-workers are modernizing & optimizing the Java-BE. This team here is equally as lovely as one can ever hope for; and yes, I will stay with this team as long as I can as well.

Oh, and BTW: people in both teams are nearly 100% remote.

I am married to a wonderful, an absolutely amazing person who is so full of love that she sometimes struggles with the universe (or with humanity). And I am a proud father (yes, "father"*) of a woman with a brilliant Beautiful Mind and a heart as big as the universe (who also happens to have Mastery of Words™️).

I love learning new things from complete strangers. The stranger the new knowledge the more fascinating it is for me.

I have a #FragMyBrain (autistic, ocd, nd) so be ready for detailed explanations, where each word is carefully chosen & positioned in the sentence, but still some missing - when you ask me something.

I quickly fall in love with brilliant people with language mastery skills - Mastery of Words™️.

You can always shitpost with me & talk garbage - as long as it is done intelligently, with wit & humor, and respect.

The fastest way to land on my block list is not to make a mistake, but to repeatedly make the same stupid mistake again and again and insist on it being right or being racists, queer-/transphobic, ableist, disrespectful, white supremecist, etc., etc. - you know what I mean. There is always enough space in the "Dungeon of Blocked Accounts".

I will post about anything that my #ActuallyAutistic brain will come up with: politics (CW'ed), #Trans topics, #Musings, #Computers, #Flutter, #Languages, #GoodMorningAgatha, #Cats, #CatsOfMastodon, #Dogs, #Animals in general, #Beauty, #Love, #TransJoy, #TransPride, ... you see: there is no limit!

I will add CW and mark as sensitive whenever I think so. If I forget once, please inform me and I'll correct it as fast as I can. I don't discuss whether something needs CW/sensitive marker or not, I just accept it.

I wear my feelings on my skin, i.e. what you read and see is who I really am, there is no IRL Imdat Celeste and a different, Fediverse Imdat Celeste: you will see a lot of 🫂,💜,😍,🥰,🥹,😳... and more. If you feel it is intruding, please let me know.

I come over differently, but I am also insecure: so, I will add a lot of emojis - just to be sure.

Also, please don't expect a "normal person" here: I am completely, utterly, hopelessly an un-normal person.

Lastly, my posts may start with one specific topic but during the text itself it may just become something completely different - "Train of Thought".

Again, nice to meet you - I am always looking for more new friends...

This will be one of the last photos of me and one of my best humans.

He's a good guy. Opinionated, short temper, annoying sometimes, too much of a geek, but he loved me very much and he cares a lot about animals. #cats #blackcat #love #animals #colorado

Today's post on @medium is about #birds, #veganism, and respect for all #animals.

It's always nice when birds frame themselves.

I now find such torsos of rose beetles in my garden. I have observed that the sparrows try to crack them. This does not always seem to be crowned with immediate success. That's why the birds leave them as they are for the time being and continue to work on them after a while. The bugs are beautiful. That's why I tried to capture their metallic sheen in a painterly way. Original on the right side:

Today the nice looking male of the Rose-breasted Grosbeak.

I put one of Fletcher rattie's old shirt/blankets over Raddy's enclosure...now he likes to sit up there and survey the area. #RatsOfMastodon #PetRat #Animals
