Any time anyone on here wants to repost one of these things - at least try to find the uncensored version. LET’S KILL THIS IDIOTIC PRO-ADVERTISER CENSORSHIP BOLLOCKS!
I don’t even know who this shit is for. I see the censored memes far more on lemmy than I do any other social media platform. Is this all coming from facebook? Because they themselves are often screenshots of content from tumblr or twitter
TikTok is notoriously very strict with censorship, and that leaked into Instagram and Facebook even though they are a bit more lenient.
Facebook and Instagram don’t care, it’s only TikTok and YouTube. You can literally say/type the n-word on Instagram
W*y ar* pe*ple s* fucking ups*t w*th a b*t of cunting c*nsorship? Sur*ly *t do*sn’t shitting m*tter *f som*one w*nts t* c*nsor s*me of the*r twatting w*rds?
People internalizing the censorship and starting to self-censor is one of the worst effects of social media.
Ah yes, I love when people do that. Especially since it perfectly circumvents word-based personal filters.
It says my passwords have been exposed but I am protected by the knights who say ni
Was expecting more NSFW
That’s the thing, the censorship doesn’t even remove anything of substance. It’s just speech policing for the policing.
Probably got used to this sort of thing over on Meta. I was getting warnings I’d be banned for ludicrous reasons, started censoring myself. And then I quit.
Gonna be honest i just read it not even realized it was censored lol my brain just auto filled it
Unrelated, but has anyone lost a fucked up dog? It’s really aggressive and doesn’t answer to any name:
Plot twist: she knew and didn’t care. “Its a doggish canine social enough to accepts the pets, a couple rabies shots and its good enough for me.”
That coyote is looking at the photographer as if to say, “Shh, man. Be cool. Don’t blow my cover!”
Have you tried the name “Steve”? He looks like he might be a Steve…
I did ask. Does biting mean “yes” or “no?”
Maybe 🤷
We had a Shiba Inu-mutt named Konoha (rip girlie!) that legit looked like a smaller coyote. This could actually be a larger version of her.
Made me smile!
Cute! I would love to see a photo.
Awwww yes! I love excuses to show off my Kona-Baby! Thank you!!
She’s beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m going to go give my own furball an extra squeeze.
extra long skinny snout, might be an anteater. if you can get an anteater to use a toilet, that’s a friend.
Could be part borzoi.
i like that one for how much effort it takes to explain
Not even Peter?
The coyote expressed the idea of “No” pretty definitively.
FUCKED
It’s rage
bait. Instant dislike.dislike
Yes, do you need the word defined? I instantly don’t like it even if I otherwise night have.
What is rage (bait)?
YT:
“rage baiting” and why influencers are intentionally making you mad
WP:
In internet slang, rage-baiting (also rage-farming) is the manipulative tactic of eliciting outrage with the goal of increasing internet traffic, online engagement, revenue and support.
I know what that is, I want to know where it is here.
Censoring shit that doesn’t need to be censored (i.e. swear words, and more recently any word like “kill”, “died”, “murdered”, “raped”, etc.) is likely the cheapest form of ragebait. You automatically trigger a bunch of engagement through responses of “you’re allowed to say X on the internet”. Engagement = More views, so throwing asterisks or blurring random words is proliferating.
Huh, interesting and surprisingly logical. I am way out of touch with the current state of tiktok, Facebook and I don’t know what.
I personally don’t have an opinion on this, but the implied tension is “Wild animals are not pets” and the woman befriending a wild animal.
You’re good. Very good.
Answer the question? Where is it?
Ragebait is something said or written intentionally wrong to get people to engage by “correcting” it. A good example is a video where someone mispronounces a word most everyone knows. Another, which this is, is censoring something for no reason.
So the censoring here, yes?
Yes
It’s over there, in a box.
Right next to the point.
It’s my dick in a box!
That’s one fucking nice kitty right there!
What show is this?
Trailer park boys
Ok, I figured. Maybe I’ll finally check it out.
It’s good but after a few seasons it starts feeling repetitive.
Which tbf, is part of the joke. Same shit different day.
Clear your schedule.
Looks like Trailerpark Boys
Raccoons are very friendly…
Urban raccoons are starting to figure out that being friendly means snacks
so are we looking at 30 years tops for common domestication?
If they are ever domesticated they are gonna be annoying as pets since they literally have hands. They will be able to open anything you can open.
AFAIK raccoons are already manageable pets up until they hit puberty. Then they get batshit crazy and feral, and it’s best to let them go, so all in all it’s not worth it. However, while I’m not sure it’s a perfect analogy, but there was a domestication experiment spanning over several decades with foxes, and it’s still ongoing. Those particular foxes are somewhat more domesticated, but still utterly loud, kept in kennels, they still piss everywhere, etc. - and raccoons aren’t even halfway there.
the raccoon build is still minmaxxing interaction/loot, who domesticates who is still waged
This one’s already domesticated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-wDEyi951k
except when they go full spider-monkey on your ass when you’re taking out the garbage and they jump out of your bin at mach 10 as they screech their battle cry inches from your face. Based on a true story.
You sure that was a raccoon? Could have been a wolverine… yeah, let’s shift the blame on wolverines instead…
This happened to my room mate and was hilarious, I still love raccoons.
Does your roommate?
probably not!
Did he say “bub”?
Maybe even too friendly.
… you think maybe it’s because they want snacks?
Huh, maybe they are just some sort of fucked up cat.
What do you mean by that? What are you saying? That they’re mad? Mad, mad cats?
My grandpa had a pet racoon way back in the day. He said it was a good pet except it was incapable of managing its mischief and tearing stuff up to see if anything good was inside.
I was friends with a young raccoon that was being rehabbed by a family friend. The lil dude was already imprinted on people so he couldn’t be released into the wild. He and I could match each other’s energy and we’d get into so much trouble together. Then he grew up and got fat and lazy. I was very disappointed because he was no longer an agent of chaos and I was.
raccoons make great friends but terrible pets. their shit is full of pathogens harmful to humans. smart compared to skunks, same story. adorable friends, destructive little ninjas when you’re not paying attention.
I’m reminded of the movie Long Way North where a heavily-accented sailor tells a girl about a dog that lives on the ship: “He is punished. He chews the rigging and steals.”
The only close interaction I’ve ever had with a raccoon was when one perched on a fence post and was hissing and swiping at my dog, who was going apeshit. So yeah I can see how someone might confuse them for weird cats.
What are these usernames?
Welcome to Tumblr.
Probably fake story but it’s more likely to domesticate an opossum over a raccoon. Maybe story over the decades changed the animal because human story telling results in many fabrications and hallucination of details.
Adult raccoons are vicious and territorial cunts. Well at least the one I encountered anyways
I’ve got family that is on their third pet raccoon. I’m not sure where the last two came from but the first was a baby when they got it. They cut down a tree that had a family of raccoons in it and that one survived so they just… Kept it.
It was very entertaining but could be an asshole when in heat.
O, and I worked with a lady that had one too. Apparently they can survive a massive opiate overdose because it ate an entire bottle of painkillers (oxys? Hydros? I forget) while she was at work one day. She said it was stiff like rigor mortis for about 36 hours then eventually just got up and continued on like nothing had happened.
Apparently it isn’t that difficult to semi domesticate racoons if you feed them. Like they won’t cuddle on your lap or anything but they also won’t attack you and might tolerate a boop or scritch.
This is probably a video of Petr and grandma.
Technically, it wasn’t on her lap!
That was amazing though.
my dad had two families of them visit him daily. he got them to do simple tricks for food and they would tap his leg to wake him up when he was asleep on the porch. as long as each family showed up at different times they were peaceful but they would otherwise fight amd one also killed and presumably ate a squirrel.
Anything territorial with a social structure (wolves, horses & boars being great examples of successful domestications, otters and falcons for in-progress domestications and foxes and raccoons good candidates) are prime domestication material as the human can become the social leader and they won’t be as inclined to leave what is their pack’s territory
That said, it takes thousands of years to fully domesticate something, which is why “semi-domesticated” otters and falcons just sort of help out with hunting without being “friendly” enough to be predictable
Foxes are already domesticated. A Russian scientist did it to test what is needed for domestication.
Wow
