    TIL Dreich means damp, grey weather. A word that is commonly used to describe the Scottish weather has been named the "most iconic" Scots word.

  • Personally, if I had quit something terrible and addictive (big props to you), I would be pretty upset if my wife continued to do said terrible, addictive thing.

  • Sweet snack: jam doughnut. Savoury snack: butcher's sausage roll.

    This weekend we're hosting a family barbeque, so of course its forecast to rain. Also collecting new glasses so will mostly be squinting a bit until I get used to them.

  • I can imagine the panic at the sealed, unreachable tea. Not a good start to the day!

  • Hey,

    thanks for everything you do. Here's what I see this morning. I'm not sure if its totally a lemmy issue, as my instance server needs to be restarted most days at the moment, so may be causing the issues.

    This is what I see this morning on the !UKcasual@lemmy.world home page

  • I like brown sauce, but I don't like it if egg is present.

  • Live in the UK, and I feel the same. Being afraid of the government seems a very US specific thing (at least in first world countries). But having visited the US, they're generally living in fear more than Europe. Bars on everyone's houses (or gates on communities). Constant worry about home invasion. Its another level compared to here.

  • I lost a large proportion of my sense of smell after getting Covid. It's rubbish.

  • Yeah, I always like this one.

  • You cannot have a hot Bacon & Sauasage in a bun

    I would disagree, but you really need to add an egg in too.

  • Hello, I'd like to give you money for your services. Can you provide more information?

    ...Yes

    I hate companies that do this.

  • Hello!

  • Instance is shown if it's different to the one you're on. I can see your instance is vlemmy.net

  • That sounds like a great day

  • Yup, I really wanted them to win. I found the two female "just good friends" a bit whiny.

  • That sounds weird. There should only be "TV Tuesday", which is what I see in browser. I pin the daily thread when I get up in the morning (between 5 and 6am usually) and unpin yesterday's thread at the same time.

    As @thegiddystitcher said, there seems to be a lot of federation / replication issues between instances. I've spun up my own instance yesterday to play and I can't see most of the threads / comments on here, even the stuff created after the instance started.

    We're on v 0.18 of Lemmy, so we're still in alpha / beta stages and the two creators are currently victims of their own success - I'm sure it'll settle down and start to work given time. We just need to keep momentum (and faith) and not give up on the platform.

  • We watched the Canada one, it was really good. My wife and I both had a massive crush on Zainab too.

  • Bit of a TV lull, I guess there's usually a dip in TV over the summer.

    We've started watching Annika on iPlayer and it's ok. A bit more tongue in cheek than other police procedurals, which is nice. Not sure that I like the "talking to the camera" parts.

    Still working though Agents of Shield too. About a third of the way through series 4, I'm quite enjoying the

    Ghost Rider storyline
