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".

Edmonton (that moderate city on the western side, just past the rockies) gets to -50°C in the dead of winter for about two weeks.

Some years we get snow for 5-6 months (global warming is fixing that) .

You move more north if you want to. Im fucking good

Edmonton is the farthest north you can go in the western hemisphere while still having over 1 million people, and yet we still have people that complain about the winters ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Also we hit +40C/104F last month so that was fun.

I know. I had to buy a new AC. It was hell.

At least Calgary gets chinooks (as much as they suck for migraines) for a mild reprieve

And it's not like it's gonna get better.

You'll get more forest fires and draughts in summer and then, maybe, only -30 in winter.

Moving up north in Canada is, unfortunately, not a solution.

With climate change, it's not a solution..... Yet
