It’s a pale imitation of Stage 9.

So is Halloween (Samhain).

Thanks for the reply! It just seemed euphemistic to me as cages have a predominantly positive connotation with safety or protection. Roll cages, faraday cages, and shark cages protect those within. Most other cages are for the protection of those outside, which cars obviously aren’t.

The only negative connotation cages have is animal cruelty or false imprisonment, and even then you sympathise with those within the cage.

Now say car-nut, petrolhead, or even just driver, and I have clear enough picture painted.

Doesn’t quite fit, but I guess. Im curious why the OP chose to use a euphemism though.

Hey the third was a good enough retread of the first, all up until the part where Riddick’s hot bod can apparently cure lesbianism.

Yeah, it overloaded their energy collection sail. Though humanity solved M theory in that setting so maybe they can derive energy from neutrinos… somehow.

Source? That’s interesting and sad to read.

I’m so happy that there is a Crash bandicoot in the fossil record.

The Howie Mandel what?

 

Having tried several Lemmy clients, I can safely say that Mlem is my favourite in terms of user experience, except one, even though I am sure I’ve read this is possible in Mlem I cannot find how to block an instance, which was relatively easy to do in Memmy.

It doesn’t appear to be an option in any settings menu, nor an option in an instance profile.

If this isn’t, in fact, possible, I guess this post is a feature request then!
