Cats are a social media invasive species.
Cats are a social media invasive species.
Cats, and apparently capybaras are an invasive species on social media. I don't hate them or anything but they show up everywhere in places they have new business being.
There are no native species that they are disrupting to be classified as invasive.
59ReplyMaybe if there are not native species, they are invasive by default?
-1ReplyThe only native species on the internet are bugs but the cats don't seem to care for them.
16Replynon-native doesn't automatically mean invasive.

22ReplySO many cats! But still not nearly enough...
16ReplyWhat a Catastrophe!
I think people just like showing off their pets.
12ReplyBecause cats are all little babies and I love every single one! I understand it could get annoying if one was only accepting of cats instead of adoring.
10ReplyIf you got a problem with capybaras then you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that shower marinate for a while, bud.

4ReplyOkay what happened with capybara's on the internet, what did I miss?
4ReplyThere have been quite a few cute capybaras on the internet lately, still fewer than cats.
Btw, the only time to use an apostrophe for a plural is for the plural of a lowercase letter:
Strawberry is spelled with 3 r's.
That's because otherwise it's too confusing, especially in a case like:
Individual is spelled with 3 i's.
where is would look like the word is.
3ReplyAh shoot, my language (Dutch) always uses an apostrophe for +s plurals if it ends on a vowel (telefoon > telefoons, but auto > auto's)
I've noticed I use those apostrophes too often in English, maybe because of this.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

They've been all over Instagram and TikTok. People have found the most personable and presentable capybaras. I actually came here to post this from that post.

Ah, that's what I've missed! I thought it was a Lemmy thing and was wondering where the hell the capybara posts were since I didn't see any, even on All.
Thanks for the explanation!
