Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Also there is this band that often plays with roses in their butts (sry, can't find a better link than old.reddit/let_3_had_roses_hanging/). So we def have the same mechanic, not just the same sense for fashion.
I've also read that scarves can mean something to street dogs (positive or negative), and speculation that them fancy rings we gift birbs to tag them might affect them socially too in some cases.
Jane Goodall was still alive when this article came out. It's nice to know she probably read about that, if not saw this live, before her demise.
Butt fashion belongs on those golden plates on Voyager (https://tess.lemmy.ca/post/lemmy.ca/54718422).
Adventure time warned about the danger of the highly addictive dropball game
Human weirdness to chimps: We're not so different, you and I.
Orcas did something similar, but instead of sticking grass up their ass, they balanced salmon on their heads. They also started this again quite recently after decades.
Going for that retro look
The 90s are back baby!
Fashion always come in and out of style in a cycle, so that makes sense.
So why is it always post ww2 stuff? When are hobble skirts coming back for women and straw hats for men? I want that Ponzi look!
Only because Kim Kardashian did it on Insta
Beauty is pain. Fashion favors the bold.
1976, chimps crack open the spring runway season with rustic grass earings, embracing eco-design.
1978, Vultures, unlikely contenders in the birdsphere, shock the fashion world by plunging themselves headfirst, literally, into colour.
Then, after four long years of (shocker) decorator crabs dominating the covers, the orcas, just when we thought the monochrome mammals had nothing new to offer, seize our fall lineup with dead salmon helmets. A statement on the cold war? On Vietnam? The rapidly decaying environment? The orcas refused to comment.
Chimps, forgotten but not forgetting, know they need to step up if they're going to make waves again. Beauty is pain. Fashion favors the bold.
You win today's internet. Thank you 🥇🥇🥇
I won't tell you i have a TikTok channel but there will be signs.
Have you not seen TikTok?
Meanwhile school children are saying 67 to each other as hype
Has every gen Z forgotten that laughing at meaningless numbers was a whole bit in an early Spongebob episode?
Let us pray they do not form a brain rot alliance with the chimps.
Every generation has this.
Gen Alpha - 67
Gen Z - Damn Daniel / What are those
Millennials - Rawr x3 / 1337sp33k
so on and so fourth
What does the fox say?
6-7 is different.
Everything else was a reference to something. It meant something, it had implications. You could play around with it
6-7 is meaningless. It's not even a subversion of a meme... It's just a noise
6-7 is the same as Damn Daniel or What Are Those, it's just repetition of a viral meme
Damn Daniel and what are those convey information... Thy're references to media. Referencing media has meaning that changes with context
6-7 comes from a trap rap video and is meaningless even there. And saying is isn't even really a reference to that music video, if you ask the kids what it means they'll say "nothing"
They literally mean nothing by it
it doesn't come from the rap video lol, it's literally just from a viral TikTok. and does what are those or Damn Daniel really convey information? As I remember it, people would just say it as a vocal tic because it was popular to say. If an adult asked what I meant by it, I'd also probably say nothing.
You're old man yelling at kids to get off your lawn levels. Let the kids have their stupid vocal tics, they'll move onto something else in a few months anyway.
You're just wrong, this has been chased down because it's so odd, it came from a music video
And damn Daniel references the skit it came from, it has something to do with what someone is wearing. You can just say it, but then it is a verbal tic
I think that's actually a good way to put it. Verbal tics aren't funny or interesting, and 6-7 is purely a verbal tic
it was chased down by AI on the internet lol, by suggesting it's a reference to that it kinda proves you don't know anyone with kids. It's from a viral basketball TikTok
It started from the song Doot Doot by Skrilla, LeBron was just one of the first vectors that memified it
And I don't even want to know how you think AI chased it down, there's a ton of video essays about it
Damn Daniel is just a reference to a stupid fucking internet video. What information does that convey? A video exists?
It's an inside joke. When something reminds you of the joke, you reference it in a way that might not be meaningful unless you're in on the joke
There's no joke here. You're not remembering something funny and connecting it to the current situation, it's just a thing people do sometimes now

It is a reference to a meme and there is a lot of room to play around with

As it happens.
The human equivalent of furries with faux tail anal plugs.
Next time I'm going ape shit, im gonna show them this picture
I mean you want to be cool don't you?
In fact, the researchers suspect the chimps learned the behaviour from people — the ear part, that is.
Uh huh. Only the ear part.
Somebody just walked in with this:
UwU
Don’t knock it til you tried it.
Some chimp, “I bet you can’t stick grass up your bunghole.” Some other chimp, “oh yeah, hold my banana, watch this.” Doubtless.
Someone give them red hats.
