Each man knows what’s coming to him. He just goes and gets it.
At least when it’s a tight-knit community, there’s not really any logistics. Everyone knows everyone, including the cheats and liars and deadbeats. If someone takes you up on a bet and they win they’ll come get their money, guaranteed.
I think I’m missing something because you don’t usually donate sperm and then act like it’s your children afterwards. It sounds like a creepy move to insert himself in the lives of a bunch of families.
Werckmeister Harmonies (while it has a plot, it comes at you slowly)
Hard to be a God (2013) (the most minimal of plots in a sense)
The Greasy Strangler (closest movie on the list to Napoleon Dynamite in feel)
The Lighthouse (2019)
All Quiet on the Western Front (1930)
Stalker
Waterworld? At least that’s the impression I got as a kid.
My list is kinda a specific interpretation of ‘slow and with minimal plot.’
So the guy who runs the AI intelligence corporation thinks the West is morally superior to the degree that more amoral, barbarous countries like China and Russia and Iran have some advantage over us.
Like it’s just sensitive and soft westerners fighting against robotic Asians and Russians. Iranians are so evil compared to us: they’re willing to use nukes!
How can they have exceptions? The furher designated these people as murderers, rapists, and MS13 gang members. But some are allowed to stay to pick nuts?
Nah I’m just playing. They just sense what words you can say to get what you want.
I’m sure if we ever start fixing the country, every little thing we do will be “fascism” and all the republicunts will become the biggest antifa fans ever, with little clothes and stickers and flags.
Look guys, if the people who go around blaming Jews for trying to replace white people say Free Palestine is antisemitic, who are we to argue? I never knew space lasers could be so Jewish until the authorities on antisemitism enlightened me. Was it not a nutcase conservative who taught you the power of a few parenthesis? They’re the experts here.
George is fine to play games. Red Bull is fine to lean on him in return.
George probably needs to try harder if he’s going to get Max though. Not sure if he expected flesh and blood stewards to fall for that, or if he was trying to get Max to flip a switch and go full Nikita.
I like that Russell was switched on until the end.
I thought browser back button hijacking was something you weren’t allowed to do. Seems like most news corporations that get posted to Lemmy have to take me to ads or more stories instead of letting me go back. I guess on federated stuff you’re expected to have a slicker setup than a mostly stock android.
Foreigners being smooshed into goo and sprayed down the drain is the same as Americans watching their king have a parade.
I can’t stop thinking of the contrast between charged-up Americans willing to fight, kill, and die in a shitty battlefield for our freedoms but when our freedoms are being destroyed as the main attraction these guys are nowhere.
If I thought that way about YouTube, why not just be a sovcit about laws in general? I don’t want to cherry pick philosophy. Let’s go all in on technicalities and loopholes and definitions and wording. Life is a video game where X leads to Y because that’s the rules. YouTube is merely answering requests, and I’m merely watching a curated selection of data. They have a TOS but I never agreed to it. For I’m not a user or customer, but a Netizen, and we have rights.
The married father of two used “joebidennnn69” and several other user names to exchange 220 obscene files
accused of distributing more than 200 files of child pornography online while using the screen name “joebidennnn69,” federal prosecutors alleged
Circus shit. Dude used multiple names but the headline is Biden and they even have a picture of him. Plus this rag hijacks my back button so it’s harder to come back to Lemmy on my phone.
Also:
May allegedly kept several videos of himself on trips to Colombia engaging in sex with three women who appeared to be underage and were paid, a DHS official testified.

But I don’t have adblockers installed and I still get told to turn my blocker off. I have no extensions and YouTube randomly stops my video to tell me I’m doing it wrong.
Edit: I guess this is the result when dealing with the kind of users who refuse to watch ads, but also can’t fuck off like decent human beings. Just millions of people who will climb your fence, pick your locks, smash your window, because they deserve to watch content, but they won’t pay or watch ads.
JK Rowling sounds like an incredibly talented author. Most people just massage things into place. Reuse tropes. But you’re saying she baked her worldview into practically every sentence?
If I see ugliness in the world, I might express it as I see it. I don’t have to think something is right for me to include it in a story. Do you think I’m special? Am I the only person capable of writing things that I don’t necessarily support? Everyone else is forced to include things they personally would vote for. If you write about slavery, that means you love slavery. Is it weird that I’m capable of being against slavery, yet it’s possible for me to include it in stories? Should I be using this power?
I didn’t realize Rowling was one of the best authors. I thought she just reused things without really thinking. I never knew it was 100% meticulous and so… thought out. I don’t think even Tolkien can be said to inject so much meaning into every single page.
Hopefully he dies early in production. How’s that for winding down?
I wonder if he’d be ok with others wishing he would die. Or is it only acceptable when he’s playing a character or working for bigots? In any case I’m sure he finds it all very exciting.
What’s the timeline going to be? Proud Boys scheduled to burn cars at 4, news and ramping up at 5, martial law before sundown?
Iran does bad things, yet you cheer their actions. Curious. - Charlie Kirk
It’s not “America 250.” It’s “America 1776 - 2025.”
What is he trying to say? How can something be weird and unique but also consumed by millions of people as a popular product?
If he thinks riding a dragon in modern Tokyo to fight a big naked statue is weird and unique, he’s probably sad that the world has moved on from holding up sporks and going “lol random XD!”
The markets can’t sell Weird™ to the masses. Now there’s no “weird” people making super high budget art. Terrible!
