This wild burro was hanging out at the top of the cliff, keeping a close eye on me as I hiked. It was snorting very loudly, presumably to warn all the other burros that there was a human in the wash. I loved how the snorts echoed off the walls of the canyon, very effective warning system.
The history of the wild burros in the western US is pretty interesting. They were pack animals for the early miners; when the mine played out the miner would sometimes just turn them loose in the desert. Burros evolved in northern Africa, to them it felt like home. There are now thousands of them scattered over 5 western states. They're an invasive species, but so cute that the public outcry is huge any time population control is proposed.

@jongary I thought the Supreme Leader had banned comedy, so probably not.

Is there any tui fedi client?
Would be fun to have a thing like that, and would probably make me more picky about alt text

@stefano This post is touching, and I can easily transpose all what I've read, with the 20yo past-me . It was a different time, when everything was yet to be built, and the pace of change in our lives was slow enough to be taken into account without causing too much worry. This is the part I miss the most : being allowed to slowly adapt to change. Nowadays, everything is so lightning-fast. I too wouldn’t want to be the 20yo me in the present time : I wouldn’t be able to keep the focus to important things and build myself properly. These are the words of a father observing his 15yo (and 10yo) and not understanding how he will succeed in building himself in the whole swarm of stimuli from information/entertainment/notification sources. Silence and boredom were foundations of who I become, this is not longer possible for the current generation. Gosh, I’m an old man already.
