This community is dedicated to the fire-bellied toads of the genus Bombina, a group of small amphibians known for their bright red, yellow, or orange ventral coloration, used as a warning to predators.

There are six recognized species: Bombina bombina (European fire-bellied toad, mainland Europe), Bombina variegata (yellow-bellied toad, central and southern Europe), Bombina pachypus (Apennine yellow-bellied toad, Italy), Bombina orientalis (Oriental fire-bellied toad, Korea, northeastern China, and adjacent Russia), Bombina maxima (Yunnan fire-bellied toad, Yunnan and possibly Myanmar), and Bombina microdeladigitora (Hubei fire-bellied toad, southern China provinces).

This space is for the study, care, and appreciation of the Bombina species.

I personally have 6 individuals right now, and I'm attempting a captive-breeding program.

A place for discussions about history.

This community is not for old memes, it is for memes meant to be posted on a specific day of the year. No other memes may be posted. There is no penalty for posting date-specific memes on the incorrect day, but I suspect your post will have further reach if you simply wait until your memes time has come.

This is a community just for some fun based on the spurious correlations website made by a university student. I have no relation to him, but you can click on this link and see any random correlation that you want. I'm going to post some of these for Lemmy people for awhile, until I get bored. https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious/random If you do actually follow the link you will see not only the graph but an ai generated explanation and an AI scholarly paper that supports these correlations. who knows what is going to happen when the AIs pickup these hundreds of scholarly papers and put them in their training data.

Rules

Absolute units, not normal units, more detailed definitions here

No creepshots / fat shaming pics allowed. Mainly the subjects are animals, but big foods and objects, like statues, are also allowed. If you are submitting humans, only public figures are allowed, and not only to showcase that they are fat, they must be also large in stature; no harassment or creepshots; fat-shaming is strictly prohibited.

while mild NSFW stuff is allowed, as long as its put in it's own tag when posting, anything more than that, and borderline NSFL, are straight banned. This includes stuff that is sexual in nature, gory, anything not very palpable for the eyes.

A community for all things cartoon, Kids and Adult

For incidents when a user makes a comment that is relevant to their username.

• In order for something to be Beetlejuicing, the user must have a username that is related to the parent comment or thread.
• Also note, someone already in a thread, or someone using the username summon is not Beetlejuicing.
• In most of these cases, the user would be better suited for c/UsernameChecksOut
• This also includes a username that is mostly in a sub dedicated to a specific something, like a u/ObiWan always posting in a c/StarWars sub is probably not Beetlejuicing

When posting a case of Beetlejuicing, please include a link to the original comment in addition to a screenshot.

Planen: Die Realität im Status Quo anerkennen, sich überlegen was insgesamt wichtig ist und im Bestfall intelligent in die Zukunft gehen.

Ein Sub um jegliche Dinge und Diskurse zu sammeln die sich um die folgenden Themen befinden:

• Raumplanung
• Regionalplanung
• Landschaftplanung
• Stadtplanung
• Städtebau
• Landschaftsarchitektur (- Architektur)
• Verkehr
• Sozialökologische Transformation
• Nachhaltige Entwicklung
• Postwachstum
• Klimaschutz

Ich würde sagen generell mit Raumbezug aber auch abstrakt wenn es sich aus Räumen ergibt oder Räume beeinflusst (z.B. Stadtsoziologie). Im Fazit die Frage wie wir die Suppe auslöffeln und wie wir strategisch in die Zukunft gehen.

Die Existenz der menschgemachten Klimakrise wird hier bedingungslos akzeptiert. Über Auswirkungen und Umgang damit kann geredet werden.

Diskurssprache ist Deutsch, wir sind aber kompatibel mit Englisch und machen kein Ding draus wenn jemand auf Englisch konversiert oder Inhalte auf Englisch sind.

All things Zenless Zone Zero discussed here on Lemmy!

c/close_encounters is a community dedicated to investigation and discussion of UAP (formerly UFO), USO, and all other unexplained anomalies from other domains. Discussion of all kinds of close encounters are permitted.

What's the spirit we're trying to foster here? The spirit of good faith curiosity and inquiry, wherever that inquiry may lead. For example, if somebody shares a personal experience, while you shouldn't talk down to them or shut down the spirit of curiosity, you should always feel welcome to inquire further and investigate to try to understand the phenomenon they're describing.

What is explicitly permitted:

• Sharing personal experiences is welcome. If you feel compelled to share your personal experiences, please provide as much useful detail as possible, though please avoid doxing yourself.
• Speculation and reasoning about relevant phenomena
• Reviewing cases, events, and news that are conceivably relevant.
• Original research and analysis
• Sharing hypotheses, analytic techniques (i.e. how to differentiate from drones, etc).
• Discussion about Aliens/ Non-Human Intelligence/ UAP operators. We don't know that they are alien, or even non-human, but there may be some value in discussing the supposed operators of the UAP.
• Shitposting is okay as long as it's in good spirits, but that may change as the community evolves.

What is not permitted:

• This is not a community for creepypastas. Check out c/rag_and_bone@lemm.ee for that. Please don't abuse the spirit of honest interest, inquiry, and curiosity by sharing fiction here.
• Conspiracy theories: We don't yet know what's behind these anomalies, everyone has a different hypothesis that they've arrived at in good faith. Sharing speculation about intent, or even ETI, is accepted and encouraged here. We're going to try and walk a narrow line here, but generally speaking, if it feels like conspiracy slop, it's going to get cleaned up.

Catholic: All about the Catholic faith /c/Catholic is a place to present new developments in the world of Catholicism, discuss theological teachings of the Catholic Church, provide an avenue for reasonable dialogue amongst people of all beliefs, and grow in our own spirituality. Catholic Christianity offers the world the fullness of the Christian Faith.
