That sure is one way to represent what happened. Also damn BBC is a rag.

Ms Jones posted an Instagram reel of herself on an unidentified roadside picking up the baby wombat and running towards the camera with the joey in her arms as its mother ran after it.

The footage featured the joey squirming and screeching before Ms Jones put it back on the road.

Ms Jones deleted the the video after animal welfare advocates criticised her over her treatment of the joey

Same I was also finally blessed. Godspeed Nicole, Godspeed.

Finally got blessed with an inbox from Nicole today and found this post. Hope this lady at least sent these images to someone and it’s not just someone creeping on their cam.

I’ll never tire of saying it but if you’re a bloke who’s makes “being a man” the focal point of your personality then you do nothing but broadcast your insecurity and utter lack of meaningful contribution to society to anyone with two brain cells to rub together. Sad.

Lmao, I would not be surprised.

Yours was the most innocuous lmao. Points out date “Believe it or not, straight to jail”.

Neat, I would have probably used PSS too so good to know.

Et tu, velociraptors? I should have checked first. https://lemm.ee/post/56160616

Bonus post hoc whinge for people pointing out pretty well known and documented facts about SA trying to pretend it’s racism/westerners/preaching. The guy posts antagonistic stuff on the daily critical of other countries, can dish it out but can’t take it. He definitely hesitated though guys.

My post was long so I failed to but thanks for mentioning mandatory trials. They’re definitely a huge factor and something we do here across the pond too.

I’ve worn hearing aids in both ears since I was young so I can understand. Its probably been the last couple of generations the tech has got to a decent place and that’s after nearly 30 years of wearing them.

The problem I find with most older people who acquire hearing loss later in life is shame or similar feelings, even if they say otherwise. If you have a good audiologist when you get hearing aids you’ll do real ear measurements. It can often take multiple trips to the audiologist, doing these test, to calibrate hearing aids properly. My partners mother is like this, where she hasn’t gone back since her initial fitting and as a result stop wearing her aids all the time.

My suggestion to anyone with relative like that is to do anything short of booking the appointment for them to get these real ear measurements done. Do them until the sound matches expectations. These device are expensive; so people have every right to take them back until they perform as expected. This includes sending the aids back and getting a replacement/different aid if needed. You wouldn’t drop several grand on a TV and just put up with it if the picture quality was shit. I have the phonak audeo which were expensive but sounds amazing, which is different for my degree of hearing loss.

Phonak and Signia are known brands with Signia (formerly Siemens) being in the space for a long time. If your country has it, try the government funded audiologist. Happy to answer any questions you may have.

Below is a photo of what a REM looks like, show your relative and ask if he’s had them. If not (change audiologist immediately) ensure they get them done until the hearing device perform as expected. Any time they don’t, tell him write down how and inform his audiologist (I would always forget stuff when I was at an appointment). Most audiologist are not only good at their jobs but passionate about it and will try their utmost best to rectify issues you bring to them.

They place this on your ear and then you put in hearing aids. They then play different tones/noises to monitor how you hearing aids perform. It may take multiple visits but it is worth it.

iPhone you just swipe right to navigate to the previous web page.

Just to clarify it isn’t unmanaged. Tbf they seem like a solid community. I don’t doubt that the past 24h have highlighted some issues for their admin team to deal with. I think it’s more prominent because most major instances have gotten on top of similar problems, so it harkens back to when lemmy was more “Wild West of the internet” in nature.

Unfortunately a lot of people do; though on Lemmy it’s a far from perfect experience currently.

Yeah even post tagged nsfw are coming through despite my having my feed set to filter all nsfw. Only from SDF so far so don’t know if this is more sdf drama/trolling.

Right, still might be an idea to restrict screen time. Also might be an idea to talk about boundaries. Can’t be expected to be at your best parenting if you’re being woken up all hours of the morning. Tell him Elon will steal his eyeballs.

If your kid is young enough to ask to sleep in your room they probably shouldn’t have a phone. Or least set parental restrictions to stop usage at 2:30 in the morning imo.

Not hating but I did laugh at the fact that he’s indirectly echoing your sentiment in this thread and you dunk on him for it lmao.

It’s a pretty common title starter and given I wasn’t certain it felt appropriate. It’s more soliciting the opinions of others rather than literally asking if someone is the only person to work something out. Not really worth getting worked up about in my opinion.
