Shit, I was gonna say three way tie between Spirited Away, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and 21 Jump Street, but if I count what I’ve watched at school then National Treasure wins lol
sometimes I talk about video games. RIP kbin.run

I can understand that. Just as well, I don’t believe you deserved to be banned, strictly for that exchange of comments. You guys weren’t being nice to each other, for certain, but in the realm of people being mean to each other on the internet that was about a 3 or 4 out of a possible 10 in intensity.
In the future just ask yourself if something you posted could make someone else upset, particularly someone invested or related to something you’re talking about negatively or are dismissing. I think it should be okay to express that, but understand that it may hurt some feelings, and people may become upset with you. Don’t give it back to them and sink to that level.
As self-appointed arbiter of the truth, I don’t think OP was trolling. I think OP responded negatively to a wholesome post, and even though their position is justified, that’s going to receive a backlash of some size.
At that point the fatal mistake was trying to respond to the backlash, because the people responding to OP were definitely being condescending internet arguers, so…
In the end, partial responsibility to OP for being negative on a wholesome post, regardless of justification, then partial responsibility to the repliers for being tactless about it, then after that it becomes everyone’s fault as they roll around in the mud together.
Why continue if you hate the trend? Either way, I think Kanye’s living ego would destroy the planet, let alone the lions
Music: my dad was in a hard rock band in the 90s and got me into a lot of rock and post grunge, then I got Guitar Hero and it was all downhill from there. Decided to pick up bass guitar because it was the less popular guitar instrument and I liked to be very slightly non conformist, and I just kept at it.
Video games: my mom bought me a game boy color, which I loved, then she let me use her Windows XP home machine, and I tried tons of free to play MMOs, private server world of Warcraft, then Half-Life 2 and Garry’s Mod when Steam became a thing, and that was all downhill from there.
Extremely unique way to find that you enjoy learning mechanics and systems.
You start breaking into people’s houses, and while living in their walls you slowly automate their homes for them.
My previous bass guitar had one of its machine heads snap off, and I had rehearsal that same day, so I looked online at the used instrument stock at local music stores and found a bass guitar used that was a very unique, discontinued model that I’d been essentially dreaming of for a while, and happened to be there.
What I probably should’ve done is replaced the machine head, which would’ve been a very quick and cheap fix, but I instead bought the new bass and then took it to use at rehearsal. Now it’s my daily driver and I’m very glad I got it.
Edit: I fucked up and fixed the comment, somehow it double posted instead of just editing.

Unironically I’d love a “Lord of the Rings Extended Edition” version of his book. There are a lot of smaller details about some of the things he worked on that I would’ve loved to hear expanded on, but yeah, there’s just TOO much
I listened to the audiobook, if that counts, but Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzeneggar’s autobiography. When I started it I was like “holy shit, this is 25 hours? Dude must be milking it”.
Turns out, he actually glosses over a lot, he’s done THAT much in his life, and his drive and ideologies are inspiring. He was raised dirt poor without running water, was in the Austrian military, became a world class bodybuilder, a real estate mogul, a movie star, and a governor.
Just a riveting life’s story.
I’m married now, but I was always a fan of the cheesy stuff, like going bowling or mini golfing. Some of my more memorable dates were extremely simple, like sitting in a car with the seats laid back listening to music and just talking
I give them dry for breakfast, then wet with a little dry for texture when I feed them at dinner
I don’t usually hear people referring generally to senior citizens in other countries though, and even if they did, wouldn’t they still be senior citizens, just citizens of their respective country instead of America?
What’s the the unhelpful hostile attitude? Is it still 1996 where it’s cool to shit on people for not knowing everything about what they’re doing and call them “noobs”?
Here’s that link to register for their next apps. not sure what they’re planning, whether it’s something for Lemmy/Kbin or something totally unrelated, but I loved the shit out of Joey and if they go on to make an app like that for the Fediverse I’m right behind them.
It’s more the tone, it’s respectable to say “it’s a bit outdated, but I’m not quite done using this phone yet, so I’m trying to explore other options for YouTube without a full upgrade”, a little less to say “… For a fuckin app bro, christ”.
The other person did have a pretty flat tone that you could interpret as blunt and uncaring, so as the internet tone police, I say everybody is going to jail here!
… The social media site… For forums?!
Jerry seems like he’s still just trying to put out fires and get fedia running smoothly, it appears like we’re almost there, and then I can only assume he’ll be able to talk big picture at that point.
Well, yeah, you’re technically right. Humanity will never have the default restraint and compassion to stop turning words into slurs, though. So we have to police it. Same reason we have… The police at all. People can’t police themselves. We need systems and rules to do that for us.
