PSA: Do not skate on the canals (yet)

I love the #fediverse alot. It feels like a nice comfortable space. Slowly finding people to follow. I would love to toot lots more. But I appreciate that most people make quality toots and not always feel the need to toot strong opinions and make people feel unwelcome.

Just sharing the love. Hope you will as well.

From “son” to “Dad”—this warms my heart.

"For decades, beavers were considered pests – trapped & shot on sight. Now the attitude towards nature's best engineers is changing, & farmers are working to bring them back.
#Beavers are vital to #ecosystems, as their dam building habits spread water through parched landscapes. This can not only help to regulate the flow of water, it provides another important service – keeping fires under control. Beavers are nature's firefighters.
In northern New Mexico, Darr has seen farmers "drastically" change their perception of beavers. "They were pretty hesitant, but they saw first-hand how the beavers provided sustained, reliable #water sources throughout the year, even during the hot dry summer we had. To see it is to believe it. We just have to show people what beavers can do for other wildlife, & humans."

Woman asked me in an American accent if I knew where a specific restaurant is. Told her it was 250m or about 5 blocks down the road. “How far is that in traditional units?” I said “I dunno half a Fahrenheit?”
