That man looks like a mime from hell
Here’s the thing. You said a “jackdaw is a crow.” Is it in the same family? Yes. No one’s arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing. If you’re saying “crow family” you’re referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people “call the black ones crows?” Let’s get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that’s not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you’d call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don’t. It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?
I’ve yet to see anything like this emerge from Lemmy itself; no real platform-wide infamous episode. I wonder what the first Lemmy-based episode of Whang! is going to be?
No drama yet AFAIK but The Picard Manuveur is everywhere
That’s just Gallowboobs in secret though.
That will never not be funny. Guy nuked his whole fame status in that one moment.
What’s the context?
(Thanks for the answers, everybody!)
An infromative biologist redditor named unidan made the comment above. The majority of reddit loved him. Whenever he posted a comment, reddit would literally get on their knees to jerk and suck him off with upvotes. That and the usual tone of his comments made me dislike him. He had a hissy fit with another redditor over a crows/jackdaws. He revealed that he made alts to downvote other redditors and upvote himself, even if the other redditor was correct. His downfall was very satisfying lol

Don’t forget magpies!
My wife when we first moved to Wyoming: “What a pretty and dainty bird. What is it?”
Me: That’s a Magpie.
Magpie: *bathes in blood as it feasts on the flesh of a dead elk*
My wife:
I went Birds first but didn’t find one that really fit, hence Psycho.
Magpies are the bird equivalent of that person everyone thinks is hot as long as they don’t say anything
Fuck, maybe that’s why my wife calls me a magpie, but also tells me to shut up sometimes. (I like shiny things)
They scream the loudest though.
Steller’s Jay fits in with the family and makes sure the blue jay doesn’t get lonely
Scrub jay checking in
Magpies are the friendliest birds for people but I almost feel bad about it because they’re dicks to other birds.
Australian Magpies aren’t corvids, they’re butcherbirds, unrelated to the European magpie.
They’re cute, but they’re definitely dicks.
I just looked them up. They look pretty cool.
That’s just a crow that’s into electronic music
In my country everyone hates Magpies because they’re aggressive to people
I could see him being more metal than his entire family.
The normal looking one looks adopted. Like the native kid from King of the hill
“adopted” lol. I think you missed a big sub plot, my guy.
I didn’t really watch the show since it’s one of those old boomer cartoons.
Stop making my back hurt by saying that
Oh well if you ever want a biting satire of texas it holds up.
