Over the last week, British flags have been cable-tied to nearly every lamppost in my town.
So many British flags that it doesn’t look like Britain. It looks like 1930s Germany.
It makes me afraid. My anxiety is through the roof. I feel fighty when I go out now and look at everyone with suspicion.

I'm wondering how likely it is that furaffinity gets blocked in the UK.
It is gonna run afoul of the whole stupid online safety act thing but will they actually block it in this country?

A bit of an experiment, a prototype ring presentation box. Learned a lot. Like it can be a lot smaller, how to set up my band saw to make really straight cuts...
And I have learned to measure twice cut once, for about the 17th time. Maybe it will stick this time

Twin axle trailer at work. Zero brake function. Customer declined repairs.
