A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

They are pole-ish.

Those are not real poles. This are red dots on the map (and not in the right place either)

I liked the Polish and wanted to visit until their farmers decided to fuck with Ukraine 8 ways from sunday. They're so fucking worried about Ukrainian grain that they'll fuck the only other people on the planet that have been fucked around as much as Poland, Ukraine.

Ah, MAGAts, or the local equivalent thereof. I suppose they’re everywhere.

As a pole, it's endonym appropriation, and I wont stand for it.

Which one?

There are only two poles, north and south. Everywhere else is a mental illness.

Well, you're not wrong... Texas adopted legislation declaring that the West Pole must exist, and therefore must be in Texas.

As if dipoles exist. #monopoleearth

Clearly not real poles, but a complex conjugate pole pair at sigma = 0. System is only marginally stable.

There are only two poles! Marek and Agnieszka.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

With how popular those names are, you'd think people would know how to say Agnieszka. I've heard "nishka" lol

Technically in this map the poles are lines.
