@Gradually_Adjusting Let's be honest, if non-natural born US citizens could be president, there's a non-szero chance we would have seen President Schwarzenegger more than decade ago.
I love Arrnie, fon't get me wrong, but electing popular figures rarely goes well (lloking at you, Reagan)

@hariette I really like it. One of the problems with the threadiverse is finding new, interesting content.

@Aesculapius beautiful!
OT, but love your username. I have a tattoo of the Rod of Aesculapius/Asclepius. Do you happen to know Panacea??

@pinkraisons love your work. Really like thee flowing organic lines, clear inspiration with great execution and a personal twist.

@Sausage good marking and layout tools. Not hand tool specific, but knowing that square is square (etc) is a prerequisite for a lot of precision work.

@AbyssalChord maybe float/rasp/file?

@lowdownfool
Thanks! I don't mind where the community comes together, that's the bonus of federation. Although Rexxit focusing towards Lemmy means that's where a lot of the attention is, I kind of like that we have a smaller, tight-knit community. Although the beyond combustion instance is where all the Reddit archives will likely end up, so it would be nice if they sorted federation soon.

@lowdownfool thanks, amended.

The dhv kbin zine shouuld be in the sidebar under Related Magazines.
As noted, we might need federation to compete for lemmy.beyondcombustion.net

As there are multiple vaporents instances popping up, I feel this one is adding to noise rather than contributing meaningfully.

Head to the Kbin dryherbvaping zine
or
the Lemmy community
to consolidate the conversation!

#vaporents #dryherbvaping #dhv

Edited to add urls instead of this hit n miss @ references.

I also think that lemmy.beyondcombustion.net has not yet completed federation with kbin.

One of the oldies but goodies.

It has been oft-reported that Terry hisself did not recommend starting with The Colour of Magic.
The early books are not as cognizant of the scope and subtlety of the Discworld as a spotlight and magnifying glass for the Roundworld, and are more straightforwardly a pastiche and twist on the classic pulp fiction fantasy/DnD tropes; although setting much of the scene and introducing several and pivotal recurring characters.

People often recommend starting with certain 'arcs', like the Watch, or the Witches.

Others recommend a book that can stand alone, like Small Gods, Pyramids, or Thief of Time.

I have to say, I just go chronological, every time.

I have started the series again from scratch each time I have got a new one, starting with my first Discworld book in 1988.

I love seeing how the concepts and characters mature, and the links, evolution, foreshadowing and callbacks.

What your reading order recommendations!
