For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

This photo makes me happy. Just the right about of found absurdity with the perfect framing.

[–] ladicius@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Yep. I love it, too, for the same reasons.

[–] YesButActuallyMaybe@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

You’ll love deichkind if you only could understand deutsche maimais

Why hold it? Put it on a stand.

[–] legopika@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

And what happens when it falls over?

[–] frog@feddit.uk 13 points 1 week ago

I trust a good stand over anyone holding it. People can trip, fall asleep, or just get tired.

In concrete it goes

Both of these remind me of salvia divinorum (gravity go ɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹɹq)

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I am so fascinated by saliva but in don't want to get stuck being a ceiling fan for a middle-aged couple for the next 15 years.

I'm already traumatized enough as-is by too much 25i-NBOMe in my 20s. That shit makes DMT seem like weed. I've traveled across dimensions on NBOMes, but I could always open my eyes to ground myself; I can't imagine how much crazier saliva must be, when you have no connection to reality.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Was not expecting an NBOMe reply to this.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well it's the closest I've had to a saliva experience, the most I can relate. I'm curious as to why you weren't expecting such a reply.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's just NBOMe is rare as fuck and seeing it in the wild is crazy. I'm the only one I know who has used it.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Might be these days. But a decade ago it was fucking everywhere. So many people I know who thought they experienced their first LSD trip were actually sold an NBOMe instead, myself included.

When I finally got the opportunity to try real LSD, I was seriously disappointed. I was like, "where are the pretty colors"? And that's when I learned that LSD is more of a mental trip than a visual one. The headspace is totally different too. Felt like a schizophrenic on the stuff. I can fake being sober on 25i, not so much on acid.

Would be super useful for zero G environments.

Great to see my parents found an actual picture from when they were young of their walk to work..

Where’s the snow? I was lied to!

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

Well, nobody ever drove me to school when it was ninety degrees below

We had to walk buck naked through forty miles of snow

It’s used as a cover for an album by Deichkind.

Dont ask me how I know this

Ich bin so gaga im Roof, mir hängt die Birne im Sud

Der Desktop ist voll, aber trotzdem nichts auf dem Schirm

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

this is the kind of incline boomers had to walk to school and back

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

School must be out for the summer, as I don't see 3 feet of snow.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Typical New England driveway.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

This is not an exaggeration. Me and my family (simple Southern Midwest folk) tried driving in New England in the winter and almost fell off the face of the Earth!

"Good work! Only 5,000 more of these uphill steps to complete you 'Move' ring for the day"

[–] Ironfacebuster@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

This is exactly the kind of slope the stair master is DESIGNED to prepare you for!

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Great, looks like somebody bent the ground again.

There is a special Dutch Instagram page with images like this. https://www.instagram.com/schevepalen

Scheve palen == Crooked poles

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

crooked poles

That's pretty fucking racist

[–] Zetta@mander.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

I love these, it's so cool. Thanks for sharing.

Oh I love Pittsburgh!

When I went too far transforming the terrain in Rollercoaster Tycoon

This is a great photo! Makes you think & physically interact with it by having to turn your head. 12/10.

Each lamp post was bought from a different city and is parallell to the lamp posts in its city of origin.

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

That's super cool! I was just making a Highlander reference.

A black ski slope during the summer.

New wallpaper for my phone

At this scale light isn’t affected by gravity, keeping the post up doesn’t help the dispersal of light.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 3 points 1 week ago

Dang that's a satisfying photo. So well composed.

[–] serpineslair@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I want to cycle down it.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Reminds me of the last episodes in JoJo 5 - Jolyne Cujoh's arc

[–] AoxoMoxoA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Huh that's crazy

[–] J92@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

A little WW1 Tommy on the piss.
