Use the link function and add an exclamation mark in front of it to embed the image, like this: ![example](http://link/)

I know the markdown code, but it don't work for me, nor to upload the image from the menu. Seams that Lemmy don't accept well images hosted by vgy for some reasons, only works occasionally.

Ok, I had to sleep on this one as it is a crucial life decision.

Froge.

Froge did me a solid.

lizard is basically a suck up.

If they got racist in the argument, that’s between them.

[–] Mechaguana@programming.dev 3 points 6 days ago

[–] ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

You literally had a nightmare?

Welcome the reptilian overlords

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 days ago

sometimes, when explaining mundane things that can’t be confused as a metaphor, literally sounds extra stupid…

Finally, my moment has come.

But also, I love this guy:

[–] Cubes@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago

Beautiful! Not mammalian at all

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 42 points 1 week ago

I will allow it because he looks very polite

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 74 points 1 week ago (1 children)

An orange bearded dragon on a blue, flannel blanket This is my darling son Tofu

*Edit: formatting

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

A beard suggests hair, that sounds suspiciously mammalian, I hope for your sake it's just the name...

Edit: The alt text mentions that Tofu, who looks very pretty, is a bearded dragon.

[–] Zoop@beehaw.org 2 points 6 days ago

Please tell cute Tofu that I love him and he is the best!! Thank you for sharing his cuteness with us!

  *crowd chanting* "GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE!" 

"Gustave is a man-eating male Nile crocodile that roams the Ruzizi river and the northern shores of Lake Tanganyika in Burundi, Africa. Gustave is rumored to have killed as many as 200–300 people, though one more recent estimate states the true figure is probably 60 people or fewer. He has obtained a mythical status and is greatly feared by the people in the region."

Am I doing this right, fellow saurapsids?

Elgenzay: Therapsid scum!

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 40 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I feel like this is a safe place to tell this story.

My roommate had a chameleon. Some mornings I would greet him by saying “what up, my lizard!”

All I would ever get in response was side eye.

[–] hazeydreams@lemmy.ca 9 points 6 days ago

Perfect timing! Just found this little guy in my garage and took him outside.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Where do you live that you get garage lizards like this?!

[–] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Southern California. I think it's an alligator lizard.

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

He’s such a long boi!

[–] paranoid@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

There is only one true lizard king

[–] SleepyEyes@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)
