Hello and welcome! I didn’t see a couple things mentioned that I thought were very helpful to me with the instance choosing, so I just wanted to pass it along…

If you look at your account kinda like an email, all the emails can communicate with each other, just like the instances can communicate. Though, an instance can also block another so thay it can not be seen/interacted with. Like, gmail deciding they will no longer accept yahoomail, for example.

.ml has been blocked by a variety of others, so you may be missing out on some interests elsewhere, that you would enjoy.

I use an app and have a few different accounts, the app lets me just swap my sign in profiles back and forth as I like. Sometimes a server goes down or an update goes bad. Having another account let’s you check in on the action, on those who are still up and running while the other gets worked on. You can even use the same name, your @ will just change.

Initial sign up is roughest step really… but not much harder than grabbing a new email!

OK, that was more than a couple, hopefully something was helpful though and helps your experience here!

I think they’re talking about the “Lemmy Gold”

which I totally stile from someone else btw

I found them when in need of a decent priced bong over a decade ago, haha!

It’s ok, we understand here. This is your safe space. If we’re going to be damned, let’s be damned for what we really are.

Piping in with some odd history info. They were originally made to give theater patrons something to watch while the main film was re-wound. Theaters used to play the same movie on repeat all day until they got a new film, then it was that movie all day. There were no “move times”. If you showed up midway you just stayed until it repeated so you could catch the beginning. Also why news reels and other visual media would get played.

Psycho made the change to set times. Hitchcock did not want anyone to accidentally see the end without starting from the beginning. Shortly after that those movie trailers got bastardized into the ads we now know them as.

The yellow lined area is not a parking space. The space is left open for ramps on vehicles that need an extra side space to get in and out of and extend the ramp.

My little daydream is that thr judge’s terms were something simple like “I want your statement beforehand so I can review it. But, you have to write it yourself, by hand. Your own hand.” And he just couldn’t muster up the gumption to do his own work.

Tiptoe through the tulips…

Same. My older SO corrects me. I won’t have any of it.

Oh, I have listened to Wlcome to Nightvale! I liked the SCP archives too. I will have to check out Beef and Diary Network as soon as I get to a pause point on Box of Oddities. It may have been that GTA radio that had me prepped for podcasts.

The talk radio was the best! I was not a fan of most talk radio past morning shows but I loved all of the GTA ones. Somehow it made more sense listening to their off the wall shit than the real talk radio stations.

We used to just leave a vehicle parked somewhere while we made dinner or did other stuff and let the radio play!

People sometimes would stop by and realize, after a bit of convo, they were hearing something and be baffled as to what the hell we were listening too.

Oh, hello other Spot
