Ænima@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?23·1 month agoVelocipastor! It looks and seems like it’ll be a parody but it was super engaging and fun. Went into it thinking it would be watched between gaming rounds and eventually turned off, but I ended up quitting the game to full-screen that shit!
Ænima@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?11·1 month agoThis movie took me completely by surprise by how good it was. I feel like you could tell everyone involved had experience playing TTRPGs, from the director, to the writer(s), all the way down to the catering crew!
Until the Epstein post, I had the same question. Now, not so much.
Ænima@lemm.eeto Palestine@lemmy.ml•Macklemore endorses the Freedom Flotilla’s ‘Madleen’ on stage, playing a special video that Greta Thunberg recorded from the vessel. Keep all eyes on deck, and all eyes on #Palestine.71·1 month agoHe’s the current generations Rage Against the Machine and someone deserving of such a title!
Same. For the longest time I was made to believe that crying in front of people was weak. Especially, when those tears came from entertainment. Then I watched Schindler’s List and bawled like a fucking baby at the end when…
Tap for spoiler
Schindler starts pointing out all the possessions he still had, which he could have bartered to save more Jews and the overwhelming support from the ones he did save comforting him.
It fundamentally changed who I was and what I was willing to show emotion for, especially empathy. I found that any movie based on actual events, that ended tragically, would illicit a similar response.
It was only after years of therapy and the support of wonderful people in my life that I learned to feel that deeply for any media with resonating characters. Elon said empathy is a human weakness, but he’s never been so wrong. It’s the only thing that binds us together.
Ænima@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•US government threatens to strip Columbia University's accreditation2·1 month agoThey’re not anti-higher education for all, just for liberals and those who are not part of the wealthy class. That’s why they jacked the price up around the 1980s. Too many poors were going to school, competing with rich kids for high paying jobs, and cementing class-consciousness pushing for social change. They can’t have that!
Raising the cost of tuition meant fewer families were able to attend college without financial aid, which has also been set up to be a lasting financial burden for us plebs. Couple that with better employment opportunities being largely reliant on the level of education obtained, and you have a system designed by the rich, for the rich, to ensure they’re the only educated group, able to ascend to the upper echelons of power.
Also, they want smart people with college degrees (and sociopathic tendencies) to work for them and come up with new ways to manipulate/kill people! It’s why so many Nazis were incorporated into US projects after WWII, rather than being hanged for the crimes they helped facilitate against humanity.
Edit: I forgot to include the racism part of the price hike, specifically aimed to prevent class mobility for people of color. Racism is just the worst!
I had my first fuck up with openSUSE+Gnome a couple of weeks ago when impatient me killed my laptop in the middle of like 1600-updates. BRTFS was the only reason I didn’t rip my hair out and the primary reason I will be switching my daily driver gaming rig to Linux, finally! That FS is the tits!

Ænima@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.world•Ukraine deliberately blindsided Trump before massive drone attack on RussiaEnglish3·1 month agoHopefully, we don’t hear about some intelligence agent with a new book coming out in the future regarding how tRump was a known asset for the Kremlin and how he was caught red-handed giving info to Putin in some false-flag operation.

Ænima@lemm.eeto Fediverse@lemmy.world•lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this monthEnglish11·1 month agoI’m sorry to hear about your health issues. I don’t know shit about dick, but if there’s some way a 10 yr sysadmin could do to help out, please let me help! I’m a big hoarder of data and don’t believe information should be gatekept or lost if it can be saved.
For posterity’s sake, please don’t abandon hope in keeping your labor of love alive!
Ænima@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.world•Ukraine deliberately blindsided Trump before massive drone attack on RussiaEnglish42·1 month agoShould have fed him a false location and then monitored Putin’s move. Would have confidently proven that tRump is an asset if moves were made to the fake target. Trap this fucker and then public punishment!

Their racism is exhausting.
Nah you’re right. 30 might be too young!
I have used Voyager for lemm.ee access so long that I struggle to use Interstellar now that I’m on feddit.online. I’m actually on here now because I could not get Interstellar to show me the same content that I get with Voyager.
I change my defaults to show top and get posts from 11-months ago. I change it again to hot and get posts from 5-days to 1-month ago. I don’t understand what threads, microblog, and timeline mean. I just want to see type by the time frame, like top day, hot 12-hours, top all time, and etc.
It’s too hard to get screenshots and images on my phone so I’ll post examples in a little bit. I really like Voyager and Lemmy but I suspect the lack of app parity may be what keeps some from seeing Lemmy as a true contender to reddit. I’m all for improving the experience as a whole so this is not intended to be heavy criticism of Interstellar!
