I left /c/Risa because the moderator there was letting his own personal feelings color rules, removing posts that violated no clearly written rules, and creating new rules without even running it past the community or asking how they feel about it.
The moderator of this community is guilty of that same behavior.
I’ll be over on !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works.

Step 1: put a coin down in front of you
Step 2: open up a pastry
Step 3: wait for a crow to arrive
Step 4: take the coin and give the crow a bit of pastry
Step 5: repeat steps 2-4
Could you share more about what the mods are doing?
While I think it’s better to discuss rule changes ahead of time, many communities are in early stages and are being built up as we go.
In that case it’s still worth discussing the rule changes after they happen. You’re free to use whichever community and not say anything, but it helps to share what you don’t like so others can weigh in (and maybe change unpopular rules)
I have addressed this here: https://lemmy.world/post/11704237
I just realized that this stamets guy posts like 17 posts at once (exactly the same time) every day. I dont think we need something like that.
Stamets provides a lot of the content on the startrek.website server, and apparently beyond. They’re very active and I appreciate what they do fwiw.
I provide zero content on Startrek.website. I left that server a few months ago and migrated to lemmy.world. I haven’t posted to any startrek.website community since November. I even deleted my startrek.website account.
But thank you. I just post stuff I have saved.
Oh sorry for the fake news then. I’m out of the loop. I’ve seen your username a lot in the past and assumed. I knew you’d left Risa, I didn’t realize it was the whole startrek.website. Sorry it came to that, I appreciated your content! 😁
My crows have never brought me anything :/ They’ve followed me home from the shop squawking to be fed, and they’ll hang around and chat, but they have yet to sully our relationship with remuneration.
Our crows seem entirely uninterested in the idea of a friendship. They will hang around talking to each other and waiting for a time to grab food, but they aren’t interested in coming to get it. The [Australian] Magpies will happily be your friend if you need them. I used to like them up along our fence and hand feed them one by one.
There’s a really difficult trail around here that has birds at the top that will land on your palm and eat out of your hand. It’s wild that they’ve learned to do that, because it’s a grueling trail that people only use for training, but everyone takes extra food now and feeds the birds at the top before heading back down.
My dad fed magpies, and there was an especially pushy juvenile who’s come right up to the kitchen window and let him know when it was feeding time. I didn’t think he tried hand feeding.
I live in the US now and one of our crows reminds me of that magpie, real talkative juvenile, quite demanding. I’ve tried hand feeding but no luck so far.
*remurderation
If you keep doing this, eventually they’ll start bringing you coins!
I think he just proposed to you. You’re obligated to help it build a nest, now.
I can’t believe this! I’ve been feeding starlings near me with bits of Greggs baguettes and pastries.
Have I received a stone?
Have I bollocks!!
Selfish little bastards - I’m going on strike. No more will they take advantage of my altruistic nature!
I thought I was building an army of starlings! Instead I’ve been taken for a fool!
I hate starlings with a passion. Sorry but they are beating out a lot of my local song birds.
They’re only even in the US because of Shakespeare smh
They’ve taken over a lot of niches in North America.
Like waking me up at 530 am when i had ginally managed to fall asleep an hour ago
You should chew off some of your toenails for them. Don’t be stingy.
I don’t think starlings give gifts.I could be wrong tho.
Starlings don’t give presents. They just want to go for a car ride.
I’ve been feeding my local crow family, unsalted roasted peanuts almost every day for two years now. They know me and come flying over whenever they see me walk outside my house, sometimes they even follow me home in my car or on my bike. They’ve never brought me shit, ungrateful little bastards.
Cool, stay over there.
Crows are the best bros
Don’t eat it! It’s a trap!
Crow stones bring luck for the rest of the crow’s lifespan!
That’s payment for a second piece of pastry. Failure to complete the transaction will result in your status being marked contemptible by the Crow Commerce Coalition. Appropriate sanctions and penalties will apply. They’re gonna follow you home, tell their friends and track your vehicle. They’ll probably harass your kids. Crow clan ain’t nothing to fuck with.
i concur
The Murder of Crows has a Crow Commerce Coalition‽
For real, nobody messes with the CCC
Congratulations on opening your first restaurant!
'Hmmm - what can I bring in return? No cool shiny things around here- ooh! gizzard stones! They’re useful! Hope this one’s big enough ‘cause they’re much bigger than I am!’
You have created a friendship with a murder of crows. Be well with your new power.
