Libertarian Socialism is a political philosophy that blends the principles of individual freedom with social and economic equality.
Libertarian Socialism shares some principles with libertarianism, particularly the emphasis on individual freedom, voluntary cooperation, and opposition to authoritarianism.
However, it diverges sharply on economic views: libertarian socialism opposes unregulated capitalism and private ownership of the means of production, advocating instead for collective ownership and economic equality.
Welcome to Physical Media!
This is the spot for anyone who loves collecting and talking about physical media. From DVDs and Blu-rays to VHS tapes, game discs, vinyl records, and even old-school cassettes—if it’s something you can hold in your hands and enjoy, it belongs here.
Show off your collection, share your favorite finds, or just join in on conversations about why physical media still matters. Whether it’s for the artwork, the nostalgia, or just the love of owning something real, we’re here to celebrate it all.
Let’s keep the love for physical media going!
A mainstay of British life.
This community will focus on pubs and the pub trade, hopefully with a focus on more traditional boozers rather than corporate drinking spaces but we'll see where the tides carry us.
If you want a different beverage try:
The Thought Forge Community is a space for those interested in exploring unconventional or speculative ideas in science, where critical thinking and constructive feedback are at the forefront. It’s designed for individuals who want to challenge existing concepts, test new theories, or simply think outside the box, with an emphasis on respectful dialogue and intellectual growth.
In this community, ideas are refined through collaboration and critique, not confrontation. We encourage curiosity and creative exploration, offering a supportive environment where feedback is delivered with empathy.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
**6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

Welcome, everyone, to the revealing of a brand new fandom idea that I am proud to present: The Cartoonimals! These cartoonish rubber hose characters are part human and animal, and just love to play all day, and want YOU to become a Cartoonimal too!
But, you’re probably thinking… “What is a Cartoonimal”? Well, fellow reader, I’m glad you asked! A Cartoonimal is a 193’s rubber hose and pie eyes style animal that is zany, wacky, cooky, and is full of satire and funny animals that like to just have a great time! And the best part? The Cartoonimals are for everyone of ALL ages to enjoy!
Not only that, but there is no one “theme” to this particular fandom! In this fandom, any Cartoonimal can be anything that your heart desires! This is for the sci-fi lovers, the anime adventurers, and the explorers of finding their place in the world! So please, give Cartoonimals a chance today!
- Kenji Yukanna, the creator of the Cartoonimals fandom!

What is Nushell?
Nushell is a powerful shell and scripting language with strong typing, querying, and piping functionalities.
From the official documentation; Introduction:
The goal of this project is to take the Unix philosophy of shells, where pipes connect simple commands together, and bring it to the modern style of development. Thus, rather than being either a shell, or a programming language, Nushell connects both by bringing a rich programming language and a full-featured shell together into one package.
Nu takes cues from a lot of familiar territory: traditional shells like bash, object based shells like PowerShell, gradually typed languages like TypeScript, functional programming, systems programming, and more. But rather than trying to be a jack of all trades, Nu focuses its energy on doing a few things well:
- Being a flexible cross-platform shell with a modern feel
- Solving problems as a modern programming language that works with the structure of your data
- Giving clear error messages and clean IDE support
Examples
