Hey just thought I would come back and link you to this discussion: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/17876074
Apparently it's a largely right wing instance that allows transphobia and other bigotry.
Huh, had a feeling it might be something like that. I wonder why. That's one hell of a block list though.
This community doesn't load for me whether I try the app that I'm using or the desktop website from Blahaj. Although I can visit the hilariouschaos instance by manually entering the url. Weird. Glad to see this though, loving what I've seen you bring here to Lemmy so far.
I haven't played GTA 5 (or any of the 2D games apart from the GBA release tbh) but as far as dark and gritty goes, I'd say that GTA 4 fills that role for the 3D games, especially the GTA 4 DLC The Lost and Damned. Wouldn't call them cyberpunk though.
This sounds similar but different to another show called iZombie about a zombie that works in a police morgue and gets brains from there (in this universe, zombies only turn feral if they go without brains for too long). Also, a side effect is that she gets flashes of that person's memories after eating their brains and helps solve their murders lol.
I might have to check Forever Knight out.
Yeah this is one movie that I'm definitely ignoring any (early) reviews and shit for until I've actually seen it for myself. Besides the fact that a lot of people are just tired of superhero stuff, the Snyder people are going to look for any and every reason to find fault with this, and I have a feeling that we can expect nonsense from anti woke people too (although that's a given for basically anything at this point).
There's too much extra bullshit in the airways poisoning entertainment in general right now. So even though I've always been inclined to ignore reviews, now more than ever the only opinion that I'm going to trust is my own.
Haha I did not know but that is awesome. Makes the movie even better lol.
Another one to throw into the mix of mentions here. The first Val Kilmer movie that I actually always think of is The Island of Dr. Moreau. A bit offbeat I suppose but one of my absolute favourite childhood movies and I rented the VHS on more than one occasion. Think I might need to rewatch now.
From what I understand, this universe is going to start off with everything already in full swing as far as superheroes and shit goes. Guy Gardner is in the Superman movie as well. So it makes sense to me that Hal has already been around and doing his thing for a little while.
Killing is wrong. And bad. There should be a new, stronger word for killing. Like badwrong, or badong. Yes, killing is badong. From this moment, I will stand for the opposite of killing: gnodab.
Next, these people are going to start going after heavy metal and rap music again.
Yeah it's funny that those were called out as exceptions because as far as ancient Greek mythology goes, Disney's Hercules (one of the most widely known takes) basically made Hades = Satan and Zeus = God. I've also seen Hades get treated as Satan lite in DC Comics adaptations, basically unashamedly rewriting another mythology to base it around christianity. Meanwhile, from what I've seen, Hades was actually one of the few semi decent gods.
Almost 20 years ago now, a Scottish woman that was around 10 years older than me (friend of my sister) offered me a marriage of convenience to move to Scotland and eventually get citizenship. I declined because at that point I was a dumbass that still believed South Africa had a future. Regret it to this day.
The only two that I ever still make use of are XDA for custom firmwares and other Android related shit. And Pokecommunity for the ROM hacking / decompilation stuff.
I look forward to all of the Fable 'fans' coming out of the woodwork to complain that the female characters and designs don't look like porcelain anime supermodels. It's going to be X-Men '97 all over again with a bunch of people that clearly weren't ever fans of the original complaining about their "childhoods being ruined."
I suggest that any and all one handed Gamersâą first take a look at the original character designs before opening their stupid mouths and complaining about the wOkE agENdA making characters uglier.
These guys want to be like Russia and other 'strong men' led countries so bad, let them have a Russian economy, and the same worldwide product 'dominance' as Russia too.
These are the same people that think 'freedom' is dictating to others how they're allowed to live their lives, 'free speech' is deporting anyone that says something you don't like and that the preacher who gets a little too friendly with the youth group 'cares about the kids'. So assume that everything they say and claim to stand for is doublespeak.
maybe they always have been and I've just not noticed it before
As someone that was a 'nerd' back in the day before Big Bang Theory made 'nerds' cool, I'm gonna say that they always have been and you just haven't noticed before.
The nerd / tech crowd have always been a bunch of miserable little sexists and dorks with a superiority complex. And half the time that little Timmy got stuffed into a locker or dunked into a toilet, he fucking deserved it. And to me, it's really no surprise that they're homophobic and transphobic too.
If Big Bang Theory was actually accurate, Howard and Raj would be prolific posters on incel forums that whine and gatekeep every time the girls come over and then later whine about being lonely, and Sheldon would be borderline nazi. Not sure about Leonard because even without changing anything about the show, he's still the only half decent one of the lot.
I was not expecting this episode to be so heavy with the feels. Nothing went the way I expected with this season and at one point I was almost feeling a little disappointed but that was a great way to end it.
This episode kinda had series finale vibes to it. And I hope that this wasn't the last ever episode but if it was, couldn't have asked for a better ending to it all.
Probably on the road to future diagnosis, hoping for some advice with how to go about this
