They put calcium in the soy milk I put in my coffee. I suckle sweet sweet bean nectar.

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".

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

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.

I went the oat milk with pea protein route but that doesn't mean we can't still be friends
I use non fortified soy milk and gety calcium from water, can I join
Yup, welcome, and water has calcium?? This world truly is full of wonders
Whether it's a significant amount really depends on the spring! It's just one of many minerals in water. Ever hear of hard water? We call water hard when there's a lot of calcium in it. If you drink tap water, you can usually look up how much of what mineral is it. If you have to rely on bottled, it's sometimes listed on the label, or you could check the brands website.
Ohhh that is sounding familiar now that you mention it.
Thanks for the splainer! Wow you are a great addition to the friend group!
Happy to be here :)
This looks so creative and opens up so many possibilities.
High Quality meme
??
It's a GIF. A skeleton runs from right to left.
Something is wrong with my client then because it's just a static image for me. I tried to download it too and it was just a .jpg
Mine just shows a 'your picture here' image. I get a lot of those on Voyager.
https://files.catbox.moe/t9uke8.webp
maybe youe browsee can do it, if you are curious, what client do you use btw
Browser does it just fine yeah. The client I'm on right now is Eternity. Not sure why it wasn't animating it.
A lot of the Lemmy clients hate gifs for some reason. Jerboa certainly does.
Oh interesting. On my phone, when I wrote that, it was displaying as a static image. But on my desktop now it works.
Still, this raises more questions. wtf?
GIFs can be generated in such a way that they don't loop. Most are not. Therefore, a once-only gif can be used to mess with people's heads since no one is accustomed to it and most don't know it's an option.
Another recent example of this that was briefly popular on lemmy is a webcomic that showed a crowd scene featuring Waldo (or Wally if that's your way), then removing him while keeping everything else identical.
They definitely can, but can WEBPs? Anyway, this particular webp definitely doesn't do that.
I don't know anything about webp's, but it does do exactly that for me. Maybe it's a client thing?
Oh weird. All sorts of weird inconsistent behaviour going on depending on client.
Jerboa shows a static image. Web browsers loop indefinitely. And something else just plays once…
Indeed, I think each developer has their own idea of how things should be done. Sometimes it's a negative, sometimes a positive.
But FWIW, I'm on Connect and rarely have issues with images other than when they're in spoilers.
here like this
lol love it
*webp but yes :D
So the skeleton is bones? And that makes sense how?
You said it - they were just talking about bones
I don’t understand these Lemmy skeleton jokes.
Ironic, given your username.
But there's really nothing to get. I didn't know we were doing bone jokes either. (Are we doing bone jokes?) It's just a funny juxtaposition imo and you can put whatever meaning into it that you want.
Others might be able to correct me
calcium is good for your bones
powderize some egg shell and sprinkle it on like salt, all those baby cow enzymes or whatever are kinda superfluous to your skelleton
I've heard this before, but I also I think watched a video of someone trying it and they could not get it to be a better consistency than basically sand.
I'm sure there are supplements that make it easier, and not to get preachy, but let us save on vast amounts of spoiled land and suffering creatures.
My extended family owns a dairy farm and they're lovely people but having grown up visiting those farms I will never ever touch dairy when I can avoid it.
