@CanisPundit Squirrels communicate with each other through a variety of nonverbal cues and behaviors. Some common forms of nonverbal communication in squirrels include: 1. Tail flicking: Squirrels use their tails to signal various messages to other squirrels. For example, a rapid flicking of the tail can indicate agitation or warning, while a slow wagging motion may signal relaxation or curiosity. 2. Body posture: Squirrels can convey their intentions and emotions through their body language. A hunched or arched back accompanied by raised fur may indicate fear or aggression, while a relaxed and open posture suggests calmness. 3. Vocalizations: While vocalizations are a form of verbal communication, they also play a role in nonverbal communication among squirrels. Different types of calls, such as alarm calls or mating calls, can convey specific messages to other squirrels in the vicinity. 4. Chasing behavior: Squirrels engage in chasing behaviors as a form of nonverbal communication related to social interactions. For example, when two squirrels engage in playful chasing, it can be a way to establish social hierarchy or strengthen bonds within a group. 5. Scent marking: Squirrels use scent marking to communicate information about their territories, reproductive status, or individual identity. They may rub their scent glands on objects or surfaces to leave behind chemical signals that other squirrels can detect. 6. Visual cues: Squirrels rely on visual signals to communicate with each other, such as making direct eye contact to establish dominance or avoiding eye contact to signal submission. They also use visual displays, such as tail postures or body movements, to convey messages during social interactions. Overall, nonverbal communication plays a crucial role in squirrel behavior and interactions, helping them navigate their social dynamics, avoid conflicts, and convey important information within their communities.

@JeniRizio 7 languages! Amazing! 👏👏👏

@JeniRizio it is tough and I am lousy at asking for anything but on certain matters I know it’s important and if you don’t try you don’t know. Like you, We’ve put in the work. Circulating it is tough because well most people just don’t know much about issues native face which is why I speak up.

Good luck with your music! I’ll check it out.

As for the language. It’s Siouan. There are different dialects.. Lakota, Dakota, Nakota I’d recommend following his page as there are many fluent speakers

@JeniRizio this guy vented my YouTube feed some time ago, and I was quickly skeptical. He claims to learn languages in 30 days and then hems and haws like crazy when trying to speak them. He gets maybe 500-1,000 words (mostly food related) and perhaps only a few dozen phrases, then bullshits his way along.

I blocked that channel with swiftness.

Nice. US bans non compete clauses today

Goodnight. To all my Jewish friends: “Chag Pesach sameach!” I pray for peace; for my Israeli & Palestinian neighbors. I pray for the earth, that we may care for it. I pray for Ukraine. I pray for democracy & the rule of law. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you & keep you!

When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the
cold, dark earth

No grave
can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her.

@JeniRizio @thedisasterautist Ugh, that old myth should've died decades ago. The fact it's still circulating is just absurd.

@JeniRizio Moclobemide is not like other MAOIs - it's a reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (RIMA) that studies have even found to be more tolerable than SSRIs, of all things.

RIMAs also lack the tyramine contraindication - a restricted diet is not necessary.

And they're not contraindicated for use with epinephrine. They do interact, but not severely.

My question is: why hasn't the use of RIMAs *exploded*? The data suggests they should be the holy grail of psychiatric medicine.

@JeniRizio Yes, turkey vultures are known to scavenge on dead animals, including other turkey vultures. They are carrion-eating birds and play an important role in cleaning up the environment by consuming decaying flesh. While it is not common for them to eat other turkey vultures, they may do so if they come across a deceased member of their own species.
