Corvids

Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow." Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't. It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?

That will never not be funny. Guy nuked his whole fame status in that one moment.
- What's the context?
I've yet to see anything like this emerge from Lemmy itself; no real platform-wide infamous episode. I wonder what the first Lemmy-based episode of Whang! is going to be?
- No drama yet AFAIK but The Picard Manuveur is everywhere

Don't forget magpies!

My wife when we first moved to Wyoming: "What a pretty and dainty bird. What is it?"
Me: That's a Magpie.
Magpie: bathes in blood as it feasts on the flesh of a dead elk
My wife:
- Magpies are the bird equivalent of that person everyone thinks is hot as long as they don't say anything
- You picked a Hitchcock frame as a meme and didn't go for one from Birds. Shame!

The adorable, if thiefish Grey Jay, aka the Whiskey Jack.

Oh wow these are some adorable little dudes.
- Most mountain resorts of BC have them, they'll eat from your hand if you hold it out flat for them.
  If they're feeling greedy though they'll also just take unoffered food as you're trying to eat it.

Magpies are the friendliest birds for people but I almost feel bad about it because they're dicks to other birds.

Are you sure about that?
- Australian Magpies aren't corvids, they're butcherbirds, unrelated to the European magpie.
  They're cute, but they're definitely dicks.
In my country everyone hates Magpies because they're aggressive to people
