Yep, same problem Lemmy has vs reddit. Only the nerdiest tech nerds got on here. Not many communities from reddit or just in general here. For example, I had to go back to reddit for a good sized general anime community. It’s that or fucking 4chan, and no thanks on the latter.
To me, Lemmy feels very much a giant technology board with a few memes.
But I will say, the past few days, Bluesky has gotten a lot more interesting.
Whatever. I can talk about whatever I want.
I wish they’d bring back Orange Vanilla! Importing the Bleach themed coke that was orange vanilla from Japan was expensive and didn’t last long.
I prefer to chew my calories, thanks.
It’s delicious and I am totally addicted to it
Fun fact: I used to work as a fraud analyst for aajor telecom company. British Indian Ocean territory islands were extremely high fraud destinations for telecom fraud. I always assumed the people there were basically making ends meet through fraud. (Usually hacking corporate PBX systems and directing phone traffic to premium rate service lines there) But I think it’s more likely that the phone companies there aren’t so much committing the fraud, but facilitate it with their PRS lines where they surely keep some of the revenue generated.
Have you? The monster designs, some of them are straight up copycats and pallette swaps and such. Others are basically that “ok copy my homework, but don’t make it identical so we don’t get in trouble.”. It is absolutely pushing the limits. To say you do not see that is willful. It has to be.
Absolutely. I’m looking at getting Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince soon. I doubt anyone calls it a Pokemon copycat, too.
Absolutely. I don’t get how someone can say stealing the work of others is morally correct.
It’s a gift.
If you can’t see how blatant it is, I don’t know what to tell you. You can be all “it’s just SIMILAR wink wink” all you want. Similar is a fucking understatement.
Of course. For the culture! Lol
Animaniacs
Gargoyles
Doctor Who (Classic)
Oh HELL naw
I’m gen x and wish I was not cut.
It’s fucking barbaric. There are regions where it is considered tradition and the governments have a very hard uphill battle against generations of normalization and traditional culture. It really is just so very awful. I’m a cut male and I hate it. The skin is far too tight feeling when erect, but that is really not anywhere near the female version. I can’t imagine how awful it is for women.
I thought that if you swallowed your gum, it would stay in your stomach forever, so you had to make sure to never do it because eventually there would be no room for food anymore.
Also, old CRT TVs had this static electricity sort of fuzzy feeling on the screen, and if you ran your hand over it, it would dissipate. I thought that by doing that, you were absorbing the TVs power and if you did it too much, it would eventually stop working.
Lastly, I believed with all my heart that all the pets you ever owned were waiting for you in heaven and it made me mad when my (very devout Catholic) grandma told me that pets and animals don’t have souls and so they didn’t go to heaven. I said if that was true then I didn’t want to go to heaven! I’m atheist now, so I don’t even believe that anyone goes to heaven, but if anyone deserves to go, it’s all the kitties, puppies, and various rodentia I’ve loved in my life.
Find me easier to access niche communities and I’ll be gone from reddit. I hoped Lemmy would blow up. Instead, reddit just shrank.
