Definitely do the special visit, sovcit. Please film it for YouTube.
  • Wow that almost sounds like English

  • Anyone here see Strange Darling?
  • I thought it was really good and the twists and turns really kept me on the edge of my seat! It's one of the few times I've watched a non linear film like that where it actually worked lol! There was only one thing that really annoyed me though:

    SPOILER

    If you were overdosing on ketamine, would snorting a whole bag of cocaine actually make you just totally fine afterwards? It seems like he would just have a heart attack like almost immediately wouldn't he?

    Just starting Rolife "Simons Coffee" model!

    This one is not a Rolife "book nook" type model, it's more like a diorama. If you go through my post history the last one I finished was Kiki's Magic Shop. If anyone wants to try one of these, the diorama style ones are a lot more challenging than the book nooks.

    With these you are basically given a handful of pre cut parts and a ton of raw materials to basically build everything yourself, including the wiring. Also the directions are VERY basic and often open to interpretation.

    Having said that these are still a lot of fun to build and MUCH more customizable! I just wanted to point it out because these have a much higher level of difficulty compared to the other models I've posted recently!

    It was a different time
  • The recipe actually started off halfway decent until the donuts and mayonnaise lol

    It definitely sounds like some classic 1950s cooking... The only things missing are maraschino cherries and cut up hot dog weiners

  • Update: I finally got the Spirited Away piece ironed and framed!
  • Thanks. I got this pattern on Etsy! I'd share the link but it appears the seller has taken it down already

    *HUUUP*
  • Of course Ernest can lift Thor's hammer, he's walked The Path of the Brave!

  • Charlie Brown finally kicks the football (rest of comic in post)
  • Jesus H Christ... That was bleak lol

  • Please don't crash. Please don't crash. Please don't crash.
  • It's supposed to be the Germans version of the "funniest joke in the world" from the Monty Python sketch they were talking about in the previous comment. I'm pretty sure they made it nonsensical because they never actually say what the English version of the joke is lol almost all of them were fluent in German

  • Sovcit probably (definitely) got it wrong.
  • "Dear American Express, enclosed is a meaningless piece of paper on which I have written an amount of non existent money. If you do not return this useless garbage back to me I will assume that my debt has been cleared.

    Sincerely, (Name redacted)"

  • [Discussion] character that was meant to be portrayed as "cool" by the actor/actress came across as the exact opposite?
  • Jim Carrey in "The Number 23". It was a rare serious role for him where he was supposed to be this sort of noir edgy tough guy. The more serious he got the more comical the whole thing seemed lol

  • Why do some men dis other men who sit to pee? (& follow-up questions)
  • Is this still a thing that people get upset about though? Personally I think a man sitting down just to pee is kind of silly, but I certainly wouldn't make fun or get upset about it. I think the last time I heard someone make a joke about men sitting to pee was like 15 years ago lol

  • Please don't crash. Please don't crash. Please don't crash.
  • Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!

  • summary execution rule
  • Who decides which "fascists" deserve to die in this scenario? Are you specifically targeting actual self proclaimed fascist world leaders, or just anyone you disagree with who you feel "seems like a fascist"?

    For your scenario to work you would have to elect someone who could dictate who deserves to die. That would be giving this "dictator" full unquestioned power over life and death... You see how quickly this all falls apart right?

  • What talents do you have?
  • I would imagine autistic people have the same various talents as anyone else. Being autistic doesn't immediately give someone access to some mysterious specific "talent" like The X-Men lol

  • WIP Wednesday!

    Not much of an update as I've mostly been filling in the bottom section, which has like 8 different versions of blue in it lol but I'm making decent progress! I'm hoping to be done with this one in about another week!

    Candycorn rule
  • Is candy corn crunchy now? I always thought it was kind of soft and chewy... I haven't had any for a while though

  • What's your go-to song to soothe you?
  • I was just going to comment mine is the entire album Reign in Blood lol I'm glad I'm not the only one

  • You can't win.
  • If you tell me we're having "coconut milk ice cream" I will always be excited. That shit is delicious 🤤

    "news" article pretends not to understand why two very different shows in two separate genres on two totally separate networks aren't judged exactly the same way.

    They're also comparing the ratings of a single episode of Penguin to the entire first season of The Acolyte

    WIP Wednesday! Trying out a homemade pattern for the first time!

    I can't call this one fully original because I did use the Bing Image Creator AI website to generate the initial artwork.

    After generating the image I converted it into a pattern on Floss Cross

    If you hadn't already guessed, this is a Prince pattern! I'm making it as a custom piece for a friend, but it's also a good chance to test out a homemade pattern before I try a bigger completely original pattern after this!

    If you don't want EVERYONE to participate in your community, then you should really make it private.

    I just got permanently banned from a community for making a single harmless remark on a single post that was right there in the main feed. It's not a community I'm super active in so it's not like devastating, but it is annoying

    If your precious little community is full of so many delicate sensitive people who can't even be reminded that another viewpoint even exists, then you should really protect them by defederating and having everyone join your private website

    The mod has literally removed like 75% of the comments and banned everyone lol

    I don't know about anyone else, but I don't have time to read every rule for every community that pops up when I'm in view all

    Just so you know I'm not DRAGON my feet, here's another WIP Wednesday post!

    What's everyone else working on today?

    I was told today to take this and throw it in the trash! Now it will become a retro gaming TV!

    The VCR in the bottom still works great too! I'm a total noob to this as I've only ever set up emulators on a regular computer. How difficult is it to set up something like a RetroPi? Or is there a better option?

    Model Makers @lemmy.ml MrJameGumb @lemmy.world

    Update: despite how messy this looks right now, it is actually going well lol

    This one is designed in such a way that the wiring was all done at the beginning, so that top part is constantly having to be balanced on something or otherwise carefully tucked away until it's finally set in place on literally the last page of instructions!

    It's still a really fun model, I just wish they had set it up for the wiring to be done closer to the end like the other ones I've built
