Tom Bremer<p>I'm not much of a wildlife photographer, but sometimes I get lucky. Like when this sea lion nosed up to check out the people leaning over the railing of the Balboa Pier in Newport Beach, California. The emerald-green water and the dappled sunlight make this one of my favorite animal portraits.<br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/NewportBeachCalifornia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewportBeachCalifornia</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SeaLion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SeaLion</span></a></p>

Ika Makimaki<p>I keep thinking about this video because it is beautiful and relaxing and goofy and probably the best thing I've seen in a good minute... </p><p>but also because cameras on sea lions swimming around and gathering scientifically relevant data feels like a glimpse of the <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Solarpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Solarpunk</span></a> future we need.</p><p>🦭🎥💙</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/ngo19Rxcl34" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/ngo19Rxcl34</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/oceans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oceans</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/SeaLion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SeaLion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/slowTV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slowTV</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/ocean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ocean</span></a></p>

Sir Rochard 'Dock' Bunson<p>A Sealion is essentially a polite troll. It's based on a brilliant cartoon that you can probably find under <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Sealion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sealion</span></a> or <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Sealioning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sealioning</span></a>. </p><p>This particular tactic is being used on the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> as the primary form of <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AntiBlack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiBlack</span></a> harassment. Many of my friends have pointed it out &amp; you can see boosts of the reporting on my timeline. </p><p>Today's epiphany comes about courtesy of @AlexanderKingsbury@mastodon.social who uses the follower only function to sealion without it showing on their public profiles. Of course, they can always use mastodon.social's lax moderation to just swap accounts.</p><p>Smell his response for yourself and see what you think.</p><p>TLDR: Nazis sealioning &amp; using followers only posts to evade scrutiny.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/@AlexanderKingsbury/112894449599344033" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.social/@AlexanderKing</span><span class="invisible">sbury/112894449599344033</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediblock</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Moderation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Moderation</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nazis</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Fascists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fascists</span></a></p>
