Many yanks don't tend to think of brummie or scouse...
Its so depressing, swap just a few nouns around and it reads exactly like an article about the UK
I have the album on CD... Not sure if proud or ashamed.
The women's stuff drama was enough for me to block a bunch of butthurt men preemptively
Honestly I'm not a massive fan of the idea. I certainly wouldn't be visiting it as its just not something I really need.
I went to another leatherworking workshop, this time mainly to learn how to work with zips on leather projects. Whilst the course itself went really well (pic of what we made below) I feel my win was that I brought in some of my recent projects and had so many people gushing about them and complimenting me on my work!
The even bigger win is that they even suggested that we might be able to work up some kind of relationship where I can produce patterns for their future workshops! I'm now thinking of an idea that would be good for those kinds of workshops and producing a pattern to a higher standard for them to look at (with things like stitch lines, step by step illustrated instructions etc.)
This is what we made, a little purse with card pockets, unintentional but it ended up looking a bit like the colours of the aromantic and asexual pride flags (the back side is very dark grey/black)?

Page 3 of the sun newspaper was the famous one for just having a topless women emblazoned on it
YTMND should be enough to instantly disprove that brainrot is a new thing
At least in the UK which has a lot of common signage with the rest of Europe you normally just have a red circle sign (generally prohibitive orders) with the picture of a disallowed vehicle in. Or a blank interior for 'no vehicles'. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/traffic-signs
Hidden inside the whatsapp->signal box in tiny faint font. I was wondering why there isn't a big "Discord -> Matrix"
On the concept of blender, I've been recently trying to get into Seamly2D/Valentina for pattern drafting - I'd love to see some kind of simple integration format between the two so that the FreeSewing patterns can be easily loaded into Seamly2D instead so the measurement files can be used from there and the pattern tweaked.
Blahaj.zone doesn't hate 'lefties'? It doesn't tolerate tankies but is very much on the lib-left side of things for the most part.
.ml has a bit of nuance not mentioned. Before the reddit exodus it was pretty much the only active instance and during the exodus it was still one of, if not the largest, before .world appeared. So a lot of communities and people registered to .ml, many have migrated away but plenty are still there that are 'general' users with no ideological alignment. It is also the instance made and run by the main lemmy devs.
And piefed really shouldn't be considered a new walled area, it interacts with the established lemmy instances its just different software from different devs. Same to be said of kbin/mbin which seems to be far less prevalent than it was.
