Why do some of the avatar/community icons on Midwest seem...Broken?
I've seen occasional comments from folks here where the avatar appears broken, and when going directly here, I found some community icons are likewise...
Checked another browser to make sure and they're more obviously broken viewed through it, so uh...What's up? Did Lemmy change accepted image formats at some point that broke a bunch of'em here?

Do you know what a float trip is?
Do you know what a float trip is?
Serious question. I had a friend born and raised near Seattle who I invited to come on a float trip in southeast Missouri. Her mind was blown that this is a thing people do - drinking and making a ruckus while floating down a river.
In MO, this is just a thing that people do. At least in rural areas. I had no idea it was regional. So, how far across this region does the concept of float trips go?
