According to this random website (just one of the first results on Ecosia): “While clowder is the most common collective noun for cats, a group of cats is also called a cluster, litter (kittens of the same mother), destruction (wild cats), or nuisance.”

First time I’ve heard any of those apart from litter, personally. There’s also a pride of lions.

Yeah South Africa is unfortunately generally socially conservative. And susceptible to magaland conspiracies. And I hate to sound like I have one issue but very patriarchal, whether you’re Afrikaner or Zulu. So I’d say knee deep in the manosphere shit too, which goes hand in hand with magaland conspiracies anyway.

One example of the gender divide is currently for the month of November, a group called ‘Women for Change’ are running a social media campaign where people are changing their profile pics purple, and are planning a general strike in about a week, to draw attention to the fact that a woman is buried in South Africa every 2.5 hours, and that rape and femicide are a plague in this country. Seriously, from babies to 99 year old women, none are safe.

And so of course, certain men responded to this by starting their own bullshit where they’re changing their profile pictures green. At first I thought it had maybe something to do with farm murders and men trying to play the victim olympics but it’s even scummier and lower than that. They changed their profile pictures green to cry that they’re “ATMs” for women. I dunno, I just think that’s kinda fucking despicable.

In fairness, there are (usually white) conservative women in magaland too. But I’m not going to beat around the bush when I say that you don’t need a magnifying glass to see how lobsided the demographics are in this regard.

And of course, South Africans are having a field day regurgitating neo nazi talking points.

Imagine thinking you’re being ‘replaced’ by 153 people. Almost as ludicrous as believing they’re putting microchips into vaccines, which South Africans are all over too. It’s honestly embarrassing.

Also, I’m starting to think that a large amount of online trolls that spend their days attacking feminist and queer pages on mainstream social media are god damn fkn white South Africans. I’ve already seen people mention that they are some of the worst of the worst on Twitter.

Depends on a few things, including the viewpoint in question.

And my patience at a particular time because I’m not 18 and just discovering the world anymore and a lot of shit is the same old shit, even if it’s had a ribbon tied around it.

Some things that I’m more or less out of patience with are bigotry, right wing conservative conformists and supremacists, and monotheism. But I’m open to discussing most other things.

I’d be more inclined to ‘meet in the middle’ politically if ‘politics’ were about say how taxes should be spent, and not about who should have more or less human rights than who.

Just so you know, I had to look that up to make sure it wasn’t some medical condition or something wrong with it that I was unaware of. But you’re correct, it does indeed have a stoma lol.

Waiting for someone to tell me it’s an AI picture or the cat is sick or something.

Not sure if that’s any better. I think I’m actually just gonna delete this post because I thought it was cute but this is just sad either way.

Oof I really hope not. These hairless type cats often have curly tails, I just thought this was extra curly. Now I’m thinking I should just delete the post…
