Cute.

I assume the hedgehog have been around people in the area enough to "domesticate" itself, since, another assumption, the humans around it are decent people that cares for random creatures.

You know, I've had tape stuck to my extremities. I never thought to ask strangers for help. Maybe next time I will!

Also, didn't Douglas Adams write of a similar scenario?

It's a metaphor. Dagestan needs help to be freed from Russia's clutches.

Still just a static image homie.

Edit: screenshot for what it's worth.

Usually when it's a video or gif, boost will say that around the description.

Just wanted to let you know homie.

I use an android apk called "thunder" for Lemmy and it plays just fine for me.

Vengefu1Tuna@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 36d (5 replies)

Boost does this with webm files. Click on the three dot menu between the post and the comments. Go to Share, Share Link, then share it to your browser. It should play fine there.

There is no 3 dots options button.

Edit: really? Verifiable facts get ratio'd?

Vengefu1Tuna@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 36d (3 replies)

According to your screenshot, you have a share button on yours instead. It's the icon with three circles connected by two lines. Click that and share it to your internet browser.

YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today · -1 pts · 36d (2 replies)

Yes, the share button exist. But we both know the person I responded to meant the ". . ." button.

I really can't tell what you want from me, I was just trying to help.

My bad homie. I don't intentionally mean to be abrasive.
