As of this moment I am getting the error we are all seeing when I attempt to upload the PoTW as the banner. I just registered on another instance to see if I can upload it from the other account. I am getting the error "SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data" when attempting to update the banner. Lemmy.World has been fending off a CSAM attack and it looks like uploading pics is still disabled.

I will keep trying to bypass the error @Lowburn@lemmy.world so you can get the community recognition you have earned!

It's a great shot! I will figure something out with the banner even if we have to run it later once uploads are enabled again. I asked in the Lemmy Mods community if there is a way to get around the error.

I love this because any time I travel country roads in either season, I like to imagine it in the opposite season and often find myself longing for the coziness of said season. Unless it's currently Spring. I can fuck with Spring all year round.

Anyway, this also makes me homesick for rural, wooded Michigan. Looks a lot like home. Haven't seen it in years and didn't appreciate it while I had it. My grandma lived out in the shag like this and I miss it.

I personally love that the sign is still crooked in both shots.

I like that one tiny branch that's been in front of the sign for over half a year lol

Proof global warming is real
