Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.

You can’t get a lot cooler than that.

I have three "!subscribe pending"s in my list after a session of joining a few days back. For me, they are showing up in my sidebar and I can post to them as usual, it seems. It is just that they don’t change from ‘pending’.

There is https://beehaw.org/c/creative which seems to be fairly active and certainly includes some knitters.

!map_enthusiasts@sopuli.xyz looks interesting.

!ukcasual@lemmy.world might become a pleasant UK based one

Museums - particularly local/folk museums.

As a kid my dad would drag me around them. I was born fairly late in his life, so he would be reminiscing about various things on display but I had no context for them and so no real interest. Maybe I would find a couple of the large items something to play with or on etc.

Later they started to be come more interesting, once I developed an interest in history and then they started to have a value as a resource on low/intermediate tech solutions to actual things I was doing. And then I started to notice items in the displays that my grandparents and then parents actually owned and used…

These days I am starting to find things on display that I used myself at the start of my working life.
