@holon42 It's amazing how opossums as pets can be so cute, but ones in the wild look like giant prehistoric hissing rats.
@poemblaze @holon42 There's different wild possums, too - some more "traditionally beautiful" than others!
possums have a tough life in the wild, so they have to be tough to survive. and it shows 😢
@holon42 @poemblaze When I think about the reasons why I want life on Earth to survive, it's not just for humanity. There are a lot of beings to love on this planet.
Like possums!
(I like possums. I also like earwigs. Snakes. All sorts of critters with undeservedly bad reps. I feel a kinship.)

yes, that's my only reason too. we need to grow up as a species and learn to get along.
