@Ryan "lofenyy" Medeiros For the four days we spent there, it was pretty nice, only threatened to rain on the last day.

To answer your earlier question, no need for a EU passport, US passport gets an automatic 90-days tourist visa at the border. No monie is a challenge, especially with the recent inflation, but hitch-hiking is still alive and well.

#LEGO people, I want to commission a #MOC of a real-world vehicle, however I’m not sure where to turn to ask. I thought I could message the designers of previous MOCs I bought on Rebrickable, but the website policies forbid soliciting work from users.

I don’t have the direct contact of these designers, and I’m running out of ideas. Is there a centralized platform where LEGO designers can be commissioned to create specific MOCs I wouldn’t know about?

Reshare welcome!

@𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐮 :mikupat: So the “gender” they so thoroughly defend is only relevant when white people are involved.

Hm 🤔

Weird that most of the contestant gender challenges I’ve been made aware in these 2024 Olympic Games have been brought against non-white opponents of white women who lost their match. 🤔

As if it didn’t have anything to do with gender but with racism instead.

I’ve seen someone trying to defend Israel by replacing any occurence of “Zionist” with “Jewish” in prominent politicians public social media posts.

I know “Zionist” can be a dog whistle for “Jewish people”, but to assume everybody indiscriminately does it implies for me that “Zionism” wouldn’t have a meaning of its own besides this dog whistle. Notwithstanding this being factually wrong, it would also make the Jewish people collectively responsible for the 1946 King David Hotel bombing and the worst bits of Israel colonization efforts and the current genocide in Gaza, which feels counter-productive to me.

So I heard the Paris Summer Olympics was a great performance in woke-washing?

Still made the French right mad, so there’s that, I guess.
