The alternative is going to be driving on neglected highways that will destroy your vehicle or taking toll roads. Traveling across America is about to become a lot less safe and a lot more inconvenient. I wonder how passenger railways are doing?
Hence all the ifs. But hey, the competition isn’t fierce! Put the slightest effort into being self-aware, respectful, and charming and you can easily get her attention.
Lil tiddy supermarket goth girl sounds cute tbh, or maybe I just have a type.
Anyway, girls like this can be a real gem to find if you’re a gooner. Their small fan base means if you’re not a creep there’s a chance of genuine interaction. She’ll probably take request and if she likes you might even send you free content.
Seems like a win tbh. Meta stops influencing people and collecting their data, while dumbass corps waste money on ads nobody will see.
There weren’t enough hand emojis 👋👌, mama Mia’s, or references to spaghetti. No wonder he didn’t fit in.
I don’t doubt this is whats behind at least a few ethno-state ideologues.
MMW over the next 10 years we’ll see a rise in eco-facism.
So are we just going to keep posting this every month until society collapses and most of us die within 10-20 years?
Well then.
When they come for you, remember to save a bullet for yourself.
Unrelated to the opsec, why is a SpongeBob Movie premiering on Netflix? Isn’t Nickelodeon Paramount?
The ruling class has always been like this. They were just able to hide it better before social media.
No. Anon died doing what he loved.
That would seem to be the message we are intended to take away from the film, however this is contradicted by the fact that our protagonist uses this power and it works. Alternatively, the films message could be interpreted as: Nobody should weild this power, but sometimes it’s necessary to stop someone who “wants to watch the world burn”.
But… I’m not seeing the cryoto-fascist part. You’re going to have to explain that one.
Comes from the Dark Knight trilogy. The Patriot Act is used to catch the Joker, and Bane is a vilified Occupy Wall Street.
Pretty much every Nolan film, with the disclosure that I stopped watching his movies after Inception. His films are always well-acted and well-produced, but the scripts are just… dumb? They take themselves way too seriously and carry this air of highbrow intellectualism while being riddled with plot holes and contrivances. Not to mention the crypto-fascist messaging.
He’s like Zack Snyder, but he pulls it off well enough that critics buy into it. It drives me crazy when I see his name mentioned alongside great auteur filmmakers like Kubrick and Scorsese.
One thing I really like about Lemmys small size is how posts can remain relevant for some time. It’s very laid back for a social media. You can have discussions that last for days on Lemmy, and there’s no need to constantly update or FOMO if you don’t check in for awhile.
Reddit is far too busy. There’s just a constant sea of noise. It’s practically pure luck if a post gets noticed, and if you don’t comment early then you comment is basically lost. For the most part content on reddit loses all relivence within 12-24 hours, and having any real place within the community requires constant engagement.
Your lizard brain is wired to avoid death, but non-existence shouldn’t be scary. You’ve already done it for possibly an infinite amount of time.
I don’t want to overstate this, but some liberation can come from within.
Yeah, we all have to play their game, but internalizing the values our sick society places on us is optional. Make peace with the things you alone cannot immediately change. Resist in the small ways you are able, find joy where you can, and do what you can for the people you care about. Free your mind and your ass will follow.
Dread it. Run from it. Witcher 4 with playable CIri still arrives.
Idk, I know a pianist and his house is just filled with boxes and boxes of sheets music!
100%. The graphics may be dated but gen 2 is peak Pokemon aesthetic. Peak sprites and soundtrack.
