I’m personally sad the AOE2 scence isn’t here. But with time hopefully!

    Not appear, but to actually take off. There is !spiders@lemmy.world, but there is hardly any activity.

    So please, go out there and take pictures of spiders and post them.

      That’s the one with the pimples, right? I still remember having seen that … I wanted to forget. Why did you remind me?

      I really did enjoy popping my own though. I just don’t understand why you would want to watch it from other people.

        Not just pimples, but cysts, boils, winter pores, ingrown hairs, ear wax, blackheads, ingrown toenails, splinters, abscesses, tooth extractions, spider bites, bot flies, ringworm… it was glorious

          spider bites

          I assure you, everything you find on various image search engines on this particular keywords will be wrong. Spider bites that result in serious complication are exceedingly rare. Almost undocumented since the time of proper record keeping and unheard of since anti-venoms where introduced in the US and Australia.

          With that out of the way … I hate you for making me read all those disgusting words … half of them I have a mental picture for.

            Yeah I think a lot of the “spider bites” you see are just misattributed staph infections

              There was a proper scientific paper, years ago. It looked at spider bites on doctors records and indeed, about 70% they could attribute to common skin conditions (of course, common with hindsight).

              That leaves very little “confirmed cases” of spider bites and in many of them it’s just because that’s what the chart said and no other explaination could be found.

              It’s really a very unfounded fear.

    Most of the things I like to follow have communities I want are here. But there are a number where there aren’t enough subs to make it a real community yet. Often this is because there just isn’t a ton of OC to post because they’re not super popular. Like my favorite band (!pearljam@lemmy.world), my favorite video game (!oxygennotincluded@lemmy.world), or my favorite TV Show (!taskmaster@feddit.uk - the show is quite popular though)

    Imma big Real Housewives fan. And there were two hella active subs back at the old site. But over here…I’m pretty sure I’m the last person who posted anything, and that was back in July-ish.

    So I wish the Bravo peeps had migrated over with the rest of us. I haven’t been on a Bravo forum in months.

    I still peek at Reddit occasionally for r/vexillology & some related & similar communities. There’s just no presence of them here that I’ve seen so-far. I hope they can manage to migrate, because it’s just about the only thing that keeps me going back to that pit. It’d be nice to see more local communities, too. There were whole thriving subreddits for different states & cities, not so much, here.

      An a further note - I want to contribute to the existing communities here, but it’s been an issue of time for me. Especially for starting a community. I’ll try & find the time to post.

        I’ve got some stuff I’m working on that I want to add post to that. I really hope the r/Vexillology community moves to there. For now, it looks like it’s mostly one user listing historical flags. Which is nice, but it’s missing the whole thriving community & the fun contests.
