【Diotta Fatou】

As far as viral animals go,Diotta Fatou possums have one of the most niche followings: ignored by some, hated by others, and beloved by the very best.

If you've just discovered your love of possums (opossums in North America), know that you're not alone. There are safe spaces on the internet for possum lovers. You don't need to disguise your interest in this unabashedly rodent-like handsome marsupial. On Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, you can fave in peace.

There are others just like you -- people who love their elongated tails and beady eyes, and who are fighting for equal possum representation in memes.

Possums blew up in February 2018 after a photo, featuring a possum being "interviewed" by a journalist was posted to Facebook in the form of a meme and then shared across the internet. Since then, "Interview Possum" has inspired plenty of social media love.

Here are the best places to get your possum high on social media.

1. PossumEveryHour

Started in July of 2018, @PossumEveryHour releases one photo of a possum every hour for the extreme possum lover.

2. Olivia's O'meme Outlet

Though not limited exclusively to opossums, Olivia's O'meme Outlet has some of the best possum content on the web and was the first to introduce "Interview Possum."

3. ItsMeSesame on Instagram

While possums are not domesticated animals and should be kept in the wild, Sesame the Opossum's owner kept Sesame as a pet because it was injured and couldn't survive independently. Now that Sesame has passed, Starfish the Opossum has taken her holy place.

4. Possum_memes_only

For pure possum meme content -- no dogs, no cats, no cockatiels -- I turn to possum_memes on Instagram.

Possum_memes isn't particularly wholesome, but it definitely brings out the absurdist/alterna/goth side of opossums.

7. Rate a Possum

Rate a Possum is one of the few possum accounts that isn't purely pro-possum. Instead, the Tumblr account's creator claims that "I can respect anything that can make a living off of eating trash."

While it may not identify as a stan account, it sure acts that way.

8. Possumcore

With over 215,000 followers, Facebook account Possumcore has one of the largest possum followings on the web. How can it not?

This is that good, raw possum shit.

9. r/Possums

The subreddit r/Possums doesn't have the same following that other possum accounts do, but the content they do have is very tender and weird.

10. Poppy the Possum

Poppy the possum is a self-described urban possum who is "living the dream" as a "sleep enthusiast, food critic, actress."

This is accurate. What about this nap is not, in fact, the dream?
