@COSORealms is so very pretty :) I might have to play around there more!
OK, might as well post something I’m passionate about. Here is a wonderful fan trailer for #TheExpanse with scenes from seasons 1-3. It is slightly spoilery, but not too bad.
At IMGP we try to highlight music we love. Sometimes its digging into the vault, sometimes it's finding something new. So we end it with something you might not have heard, but you should.
i hope no one minds me posting this. I find it inspirational: https://euromaidanpress.com/2022/10/17/how-a-posh-pizzeria-in-besieged-chernihiv-fed-22000-daily-under-russian-shelling/
Dinner:
My friend wanted to know how to make Pasties.
My mom was an orphan, but spent many years as a teen in a Mennonite bakery. When my dad took her home to meet his mom, (my grandmother was born and raised in Wales), this was what they bonded over. Grandmothers Pasties Recipe.
My mom made them about every two weeks, she wrapped them in wax paper and froze them. To be re-heated in oven, on cold rainy days.
I make them from memory.
But this is an ok recipe.

Not tonight with the self loathing.
All You New folks.
Let's say you want to post a longer piece.
You can easily create a "thread" by posting the first bit, then on the second post, replying to that first post by using the little left arrow at the bottom.
This then creates a thread, and a Blue Text will appear at the bottom, "Show Thread"
Just keep on replying to that your last post... And Boom you got a thread !
Did you get blocked or muted by someone here? Consider yourself lucky.
When people use the tools here, it is not punitive. You don't need to trash-talk or seek revenge. That person is no longer a cause of concern for you, and if you really think about it, that's a gift they've given you.
People are like flavors. You won't like them all and they won't all like you. Roll with it and keep being your awesome self. #CoSoTips
One of the things I really love about Coso is the sense of community.
People willing to jump in to help, friends and strangers alike.
It’s both a responsibility and a joy - being conscious of what you bring to other people’s timelines.
We all have our moments, but consider how you’re replying to someone who offers help, or someone who is posting positivity, etc.
Are you meeting them where they are, or are you just dragging them down?
There are a lot of posts on the bird from new or potential new CoSo users saying that we're a left-wing social network.
I think that perception may come from the fact that a lot of new members seem to be of that political leaning, and feature it in their profiles. (See linked post below for my thoughts on this.)
Just to be clear: ALL are welcome here, so long as you are not trolling or supporting the overthrow of democracy. We can't be a place for just one group.
For the new kids here.
Welcome Home !
I post a lot of links here.
I neither endorse, nor oppose the views in said links.
I post to inform.
Things I try to do in posts.
1. Use Hashtags to help us find stuff.
2. Try and find the original source.
3. Attribute, include author(s) name.
4. Quote a small bit of article.
5. Whenever possible include link to underlining paper.
Let me know if there is any other info you might want me to include.
@th3j35t3r is probably going out of his mind trying to keep the site up with the influx of Twitter refugees! 😆
