                I am well aware of that particular shadow. However this magnificent birb is filled with forms of shade like that see:

                You can’t actually reliably outrule the possibility that what you have drawn is just a shade and this birb’s beak is actually tiny. Ofcourse I have googled the birb and have seen that infact what you have drawn is the most likely the beak, but that is another issue.

      I believe you can just see the shadow of the beak on the right side of the crest. The crest splits and lays on both sides of the beak sometimes.

        It’s found in 5 other countries north of Brazil as well. It’s probably hard to find in those other countries too though. Specially the Brazilian ones.

        It’s a shame the fediverse doesn’t have native support for them. They made web 1.0 forums fun in a way that 2.0 forums lacked.

          I was tempted to add them to a custom fork of Voyager. But then figured people would just block me out of annoyance.

            Maybe they should appear on the first comment of a user in a thread only and limit their size. And people could toggle them maybe?

              Since I was planning on making this a client side hack, I can’t affect how the server or other clients render it. I was thinking of making it just a small length, possibly with small text, which can be expanded like spoiler text. Then the existing markdown should support it.

              I remember someone here on the fediverse used to post with a kind of sig ( I think it was something like a copyright disclaimer.) I haven’t seen them in a while though, and not sure what client they were using.

              Plus no one uses my custom voyager fork AFAIK, so I would be the only one with an sig. which would be kind of dumb.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
