I figured the bots were all offline to replace "Biden" with "Kamala" in the code.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Hmmmmm........how about we change the nominee from Harris to someone else just as the bots come back online. Only to do it again, and again, and again, only to last minute "SURPRISE MOTHER FUCKERS!!! IT WAS HARRIS THIS WHOLE TIME!!!"

The meme communities are still loud as hell.

There needs to be a new community of cats riding in the gondola of a G-Scale model train. I'd watch so many videos about that!

[-] Damage@feddit.it 2 points 1 year ago

Hmmm a discriminatory train-community!

Ignore poster above I am interested in the best trains.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

G-Scale DCC is best!!!

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Of the newer trains in Japan, I like the gold-colored refresh of the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line with the 1000 Series.

Or Spacia X, the newest Limited Express train running between Asakusa and the mountains north of Kanto.

But as far as classic sets go, I absolutely love to see the various old (now retired) Express trains with bull noses and maroon & cream color schemes.

whitepeopletwitter and 196 on various instances are always fun.

Personally, I like more specific sci-fi and fantasy groups:

Thanks! I just got back from a fun river float trip. It was a ton of fun!

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

I'm here! Not going anywhere because this year has been kind of expensive. I just watched a video of a woman making mushroom soup inside a watermelon over a fire, and like, why?

[-] Pronell@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I love that it's how soups and stews used to be made.

Cut open a gourd, scoop out the stuff you don't want, throw in some other stuff, and put the thing over a fire to cook.

Watermelon mushroom soup, however, does not sound tasty.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's why it was very strange. Gourd soup sounds great though.

[-] Pronell@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

They didn't have a pumpkin, so they substituted in a watermelon and intend to leave a bad review for the recipe.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This is how I cook. I try new things then leave a bad review for myself when it doesn't turn out tasty.

[-] Pronell@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

My wife says there's a recipe for a reason, but to me a recipe is just a starting point.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A recipe is just a vague suggestion. The true adventure is trying to figure out how to integrate durian into every meal.

Biden coup is over... We are back to normal.

There was a huge spike in activity over last few weeks. Felt very reddit

[-] neidu2@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Spending the holiday at home. Started a new job (well, same job, new employer) recently, so there was a bit of uncertainty about my work schedule, so we decided to take it easy at home, and instead go visit family up north when the kids have vacation from school in October.

I don't mind the delay, I just wish we could've done it in the summer instead - I haven't had a proper Arctic summer in years. It doesn't feel like summer to me when the sun sets before 23:00

[-] Kimdracula@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Still here, still posting nudes

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

No nudes, send dudes. No really, this is Zelensky, send dudes!

You'd think it'd be louder when more people have more free time.

[-] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

People at work don't work. They are on lemmy and dating sites

[-] verity_kindle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Same to you! You are kind to say so.

[-] synapse1278@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

If I was on holiday I wouldn't be much on Lemmy. But I am at "work" and I am in severe shitpost withdrawal !

[-] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

If only being on holiday meant that I'd be less online. If anything, it's the opposite.

For me bussines has been quiet for a few weeks and I haven't gotten many calls from customers, so here I'm.

[-] Macaroni_ninja@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

No annual leave till september-october. I hate the crowded summer season, so usually work most of the summer. Its quiet anyways.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

This reminds me of my Aunt trying to tell me in 2020 "Oh, you should go to NYC right now! It's great because everything is closed because everyone has Covid."

and I said "But.....then I'd just be in a big city where everything is closed, and everyone has covid."

This at a time before the vaccine came out, and Covid was still very much a deadly threat. Yeah, my aunt is USUALLLY smart. She didn't think that comment through at all.

[-] JohnSmith@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Currently on holiday in the Cotswolds, UK. So long you stay away from the main touristy spots it’s good, even though we are in the middle of the tourist season.
