Use it, and ditch it again when you’re done. I can tell you that the UK is, in general, a pretty safe place to be queer, especially in comparison to what’s going on over there. Like any country there are places which are more and less progressive in their opinions, but for the most part you can live your life without being in danger.

I mean, it’s already half way there, all they got to do is make it funny

I had to look him up. Seemingly,he’s a cheap ham mannequin in a bad suit, and using the word “personality” in connection with him is really stretching it past the point of credibility

Give a different spin to saying “come home covered in glory”

No, he genuinely has a face like an ai-generated thumb. He’s the kind of prank bellend that’s going to get shot eventually, and absolutely no one will care, he’s a gimp

Ah, now you say that, I remember something about protesters having a go at it. It was Royal Dutch Shell and headquartered in The Hague up until 2022 apparently, before becoming Shell Plc and moving here to sample the delights of brexit

My first thought was “how?!” But then I remembered that this is actually Royal Dutch Shell, and the case was in a Dutch court. Probably just a coincidence, I’m sure..,

If only there was some recent example of a western country doing something stupid like this that isolates its self from a major chunk of its agricultural workforce, and really screwing over its fresh food supply… (Politely clears throat in post-brexit British)

It’s not Cognitive Behavioural Therapy that he had, it’s a specific technique for nerve pain. It wouldn’t work on an injury, but as his problem was basically just one nerve transmitting the message long after the physical damage had healed, he had a long course of a physical therapy that teaches the body to go through the range of motion of the afflicted part without noticing the message from that one nerve.

I never feel that Bea gets the credit he deserves outside of a small group of guitar nerds (like me). Really, really talented guy, and humble with it, one of my favourite players

Were they not assholes during the match? Blatantly ignoring the minute’s silence for the Spanish flood victims, and anti-Palestinian chants during the game were what I read. I can see how that might get people’s goat a bit

New Toy - ZVEX Mastotron (sh.itjust.works)

I’m mystified how this isn’t a more well-known pedal, it’s about the most perfect fuzz tone to my ear. The sub switch takes it from a high, sizzling tone that cuts through a mix like a saw, right through to the noise of an earthquake. It’s in a similar realm to the Carcosa (which I reckon is probably the best value fuzz ever made, really versatile) but a bit weirder and heavier. Joyous.

Bunged a couple of pedals from the B-team box onto a little board I’d bashed together a while ago. I’ve had to cut the right-hand end down a bit to plug the Dirty Robot in.

I’ve been using this on synths, just as a bit of fun really. The dirty robot is fantastic, and very versatile. Seems redundant, using a synth pedal on a synth, but on rhythms it does all sorts of joyous things. The Bass Overdrive is a great little budget drive, and the wet/dry mix and low/hi tone shaping makes it well suited for synths. The Aurora is a nice, simple delay that you can manhandle nicely, and the Exosphere is a reverb that can be rather wild especially with the Little Monster expression switch.

Cannot search posts (sh.itjust.works)

I have a couple of things I’m not managing to do - I can’t seem to search posts, only instances/users etc, and can’t block whole instances from the app. Am I doing something wrong, or are these just features that don’t work in version one on iOS? Thanks
