Well it is in Port Talbot, which is not a huge distance from Cardiff.........maybe there's a David Tennant nearby for someone to take home?
Like WoW type of pieces? A friend of mine used to collect and paint up pieces for table campaigns (not sure of the right terminology) they looked really good
You can read up on them, and see some nice photos here on mander.... they're really interesting creatures!

....I hope I am not coming across here as being too extreme...
Not at all, you've basically summed up how I feel, plus added something I hadn't considered which is what would happen if I was banned from .ml for a post or comment. I've got a few days holiday to have a think about it all and also ask the community... I don't want to make top down 'executive decisions' without consultation
Cheers 👍
Get yourself a camera and have some fun!
Even if you do nothing with your photos, being out and about and thinking visually, looking for ideas, is all part of it and you can find different things in your environment... weird little nooks and crannies, bugs, interesting texture, it's all there to be discovered
In the mean time, you can still get some quality photos with a phone camera, plus its usually always accessible, and can also be a 'visual diary' of places and photos you want to take with a better piece of kit
Go out there, and enjoy yourself 😀

Yep, it's something that has occurred to me, I've got an idea of which instance and all that, but I'd probably need to speak with the admins. I don't know whether communities can migrate over posts/comments etc and part of me is reluctant to leave all that behind... BUT, I've done it once from scratch, so it's not impossible
I have mostly refrained from posting political art, even though I do really like a good caricature (I grew up on Spitting Image, and other British satire progs), and also political art is, well... art
But, people come to see the nice pictures and chill out for a bit, which is fair, and it's good to have that as a community
I can now hear in my head the rhythmic sound of it on the turn table just before the music kicks in...
It's a really nice image isn't it? I do like a nice pop of colour and some sort of crunchy texture to go with it 😀
Nice video, it's always good to see someone with the critters to get a better idea of scale
Can you imagine though, how terrifying they'd be if they were the size of a python or anaconda?
Sweet dreams my friend....
This is something that that bothers me..... I joined lemmy.ml around 3 years ago as one of the pirate subs on reddit made a backup community there in case they were banned.
Fast forward to the api debacle, I started to use lemmy as a permanent alternative, and made 3 of my favourite art communities- abstract photography, collage and printmaking
It's always been in the back (and sometimes the front of my mind) whether to move them elsewhere, partly because people commenting on their 'blanket ban' of lemmy.ml, and the fact that I sometimes feel that I'm on one of the 'pariah' instances.
It's interesting reading the comments here, especially considering the art communities are laid back, without politics, and haven't had any issues (so far).....
Username checks out!
I was surprised to see a new comment on such an old post... hope you're enjoying the 'archive'

Well that's a bummer.... I just finished watching Season 1 a couple of days ago, and was looking forward to seeing where they were going to go with the next one
This reminds me once again to be extra cautious of watching any Netfilx show unless it already has a couple of seasons under its belt...
......not that it worked for The OA. Fuck Netflix
I've just started to watch Kaos, I'm on to episode 2 and am enjoying how they are retelling the Greek myths as though the gods are real and still a part of the world... I'm nerding out a bit as I love mythology, so it's nice to see what petty arseholes the gods are, seeing Zeus wearing a tracksuit and loafing around his golden palace
They probably had the AI design it's own logo after looking at the photographers work 😀
My bf hated that music! I loved it and would get pissed off when he fast forwarded it, I used to look for the elephant and know the hip hop(?) beat would kick in (apologies, I'm not down with the young person lingo these days) 🤘
Brilliant show, actors and intro
I loved the animation for GOT with the pop up mechanical castles! It also helped to give an overview of where the action would be for that episode, as well as looking really cool!
Also House of the Dragon with the embroidery being stitched (very apt for 2 female protagonists) and the mythology/world building of Valyria....
When I die I hope it’s doing 2 of my favourite activities- sitting and doing nothing.
