    I’m not knowledgeable about this, but here’s my uneducated guess:

    They might just think it’s the prey biting back. Snakes generally have poor eyesight (of course, there are differences between species). And they’re so focused on the jump to catch their prey and subdue them as quickly as possible that they just bite down and kinda hope for the best for a bit before they realize.







  • Nah, you vastly overestimate the percentage of people of all ages that even care about anything that goes on like the protest. There are still a lot of people there, but it’s nice that most of the “good” (not sure about the right word here, I think you get my meaning though) people left, and many came here.

    IMO, Lemmy has gotten worse since a few months back, though. Many of the most irritating things of reddit have become more and more common. Misspellings, in titles especially, to a point where it’s surely done on purpose for more “interraction”, shitty spam, way to many bots, etc.


  • Well written on both parts, and it’s often a combination of both. When you have mental health issues, it can also be harder to get stuff to make a shower or anything else nicer. Be it issues doing laundry, so you don’t have completely clean towels and/or fresh clothes to put on afterwards, or having shampoo, conditioner, etc.
    I often get stuck because I haven’t showered, haven’t been able to force myself to do laundry, and/or forgot to buy products. Then you really don’t want to leave your home because you get anxiety over others seeing or smelling you, so you’re just stuck with that anxiety for days until you manage to do anything about it.


  • My family decided many years ago to give up presents to everyone but the kids. It really helps with getting a nicer christmas feeling, both due to lowered stress and financially. Right now, the only kids are my half-brother and my sisters daughter, so it’s just two presents for each adult to think about. We spend money on better and more food on both Christmas and New Years Eve.
