Michael Ironside in his younger days. I would have loved to see him as a Trek captain in the style of his Starship Troopers character, ie a grizzled, take-no-prisoners leader, but would do anything for his people. Sort of a Lorca kind of captain, but Michael Ironside.

Make me miss my old Siamese derp. He used to sleep in the most ungainly positions ever, all legs dangling and splayed across each other. Here's to you, Hanky Plank.

 

He had no time for any of my nonsense, and blanked any of the catty attract noises I tried to entice him with.

I think there might be some sarcasm going on there given the tone of the post, and the fact the upshot of it was to propose a vote on whethe the rules should be changed post-reopening to only permit pictures of "John Oliver looking sexy".

Good point, well made.

 

So some people out there have clearly been successful in persuading their instance to connect to Kbin, as if I browse "All" there are some kbin.social hosted communities (or "magazines", as they call them). But I've had pretty limited success myself, at least from Jerboa.

Can anyone suggest a workflow whereby I can find and subscribe to Kbin magazines that are not already showing in "all"?

Was he singing for you the song of his people?

I actually have one of those (a JML thing I got for Christmas as a stocking filler, but I imagine the one in Aldi is made at the same Taiwanese plant). I might have a crack at doing one on a shirt I dont care that much about and see how it turns out. No harm, no foul I suppose.

"Let's boogie"

Although perhaps I'd change it if my bridge crew stood up and started funking on down, rather than taking the ship to warp.

No, Roy, we don't.

Your recommendation does God's work. I was not aware of this, and shall be installing it forthwith.

Aren't British Problems first world problems by definition? Considering the sort of thing we post on here, or on the equivalent forum on The Site That Shall Not Be Named. I can't imagine, for example, many Syrians being bothered by the fact that their local Greggs has run out of vegan sausage rolls.

 

As title.

 

No, I don't know what this was about either.

 

Uno always chooses the pot slightly too small for her ample bulk.

 

Hi all. Have tried on a few different devices, but I am struggling to sign up to lemmy.world. (My current instance is a bit hit and miss with pulling in non-local posts), and the talk around the communities is that lemmy.world seems to be the most stable instance.

I fill in the sign up form, hit the button and get the swirly progress spinner for ever. If I look in the browser developer console, I see a "websocket closed" error (although it does then follow up with "websocket reconnected").

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just one human finger to turn the "awww" into "OWWWW!"
