The Tibetan fox for me has a permanent ‘done with this shit’ look that I love.
I like the sand cat:
It looks like it gets distracted all the time and starts new side projects.
Holy shit this is me ^^
It looks like there is a camouflaged cat snuggling next to the real cat in the picture.

The screaming hairy armadillo is also good.

I have used this phrase a lot, but in the last couple of years I’ve seen usage of this phrase by folks who aren’t Native Americans start to come under fire. I think it’s because it appropriates and makes light of Native American culture.
I think what and how it is used for or interpreted as should be a factor to determine whether it is appropriation of Native American culture.
I’m not a native english speaker, and often times the term in my mind can mean zodiac animals. I’m not saying they are the same thing. English is a common language, and people from other cultures may interpret the word differently.
Hence I sometimes wonder whether there are other cultures across the world that use similar terms (eg totem symbolism), or whether such term can mean different things to other cultures. A blanket ban of the specific combination of these two words in english based on
onesome cultures may seem unfair to others if this is true. If anyone knows or has issues with the logic, please correct me.EDIT: see the discussion in the comments https://lemm.ee/comment/1954510
EDIT 2: per below comment, Native American shouldn’t be treated as 1 culture.

Yeah, I agree, my bad, just edited it. Do you know whether the concept/word of spirit animal exists in only a small subsets of Native American cultures, or in all cultures related to Native Americans?

It’s definitely not used with the same level of meaning in pop culture, so maybe we need to call it something else.
Zeitgeist Animal?
I love “Zeitgeist Animal”! Using it from now on!
Embrace what it really is.
Also I’ve never had a more relevant use for this meme until now.
Thanks, this made me laugh my ass off.
Hahaha I love it.
this made me spit a bunch of water all over my keyboard
Came here to say this. We need to stop trivializing it.

out of every animal you know, which one resonates with you the most, based on what you know about it
I’m also confused about this question. I’m a human but somehow that response feels inadequate…
Looks like two different questions merged into one
