I wasn’t entirely sincere in my comment.

Someone’s gotta give that sheik’s new chick a nice pair of tiddies.

That was the first instance out there, so amany early adopter communities are hosted there. I’ve blocked a handful problematic users and all the communist stuff and other topics I don’t agree with or care about, but by and large it’s alright.

Hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml are instances I’ve blocked altogether.

Yep. Great movie, watched it in cinema and a few times later. Still don’t understand how people didn’t like it.

Inglorious Basterds for me, I hated Pulp Fiction just like the rest of them. The first Kill Bill was watchable, the second was trash. Reservoir Dogs is the one I disliked most.

The French Dispatch for me.

God I hated every second, and it only got worse. That’s the kind of movie you’ll need to play on repeat and I’ll spill all my secrets to make it stop.

That movie is awesome. Silly for sure, but awesome.

I liked it as well, they just did remarkably poor with the expectation management prior to screening it.

Or they knew what was coming and wanted to grab the money.

I didn’t know it’s got terrible ratings, love the movie.

Not really. Brexit is permanent.

Nextcloud is federated? First time I hear about that.

For me it’s Lemmy, without a doubt. Never used Twitter, tried mastodon to see what it’s all about, didn’t like it.

Matrix seems decent, but nobody I know uses it, and finding useful groups is painful, especially on other instances (servers, whatever they call them).

Yep, and having used sync for over a decade makes me not miss reddit at all. It looks nearly identical anyway, I never used either website unless for the initial signup.

From is underrated? I didn’t know that, been watching it religiously.

An older favorite of mine was The 4400 (the reboot is absolute dogshit though). Unfortunately they cancelled it after 4 seasons, but the original authors published 2 books afterwards to finish the storyline.

Other series I enjoy that aren’t on most people’s radar (primarily for being British, mostly crime):

1. Vigil (crime series dealing with an investigation on board of a nuclear submarine, 2 seasons, closed storyline).
2. Unforgotten (crime, every season starts with an old body being discovered and then showing all people affected by the loss of said person over time until they eventually get closure. Highly empathic actors and excellent character development, season 6 currently being filmed).
3. Death in Paradise (iconic light entertainment crime series playing on a remote Caribbean island where changing inspectors from England with various degrees of clumsiness are being sent to solve murders. Every episode is usually a closed case. Season 14 to start end of year).

With no atmosphere and the sun going nova, there’s a chance of the rock getting obliterated. With a nice boost you might fly off to another planet eventually. Might not be inhabited or even inhabitable, but hey.

If you’re in acute danger, call the cops. A credible threat has been made. Even if they can’t remove you or your brother, everything being on file might serve at the very least as a deterrent to execute his plan.

One of my all time favorites. I usually recommend it along with I Origins. They hit differently, but scratch the same itch for me.

Leather slippers (or loafers, think they are called differently in some locations) don’t have laces you could possibly loosen.

Hiking boots and winter shoes are often challenging to put on due to the rigid ankle support.

Other shoes such as Converse and the likes get really worn out and flimsy on the heel, to the point where trying to slip in without support will just wrinkle them up.

Some people are unable to bend down properly due to knee or hip issues, etc.

Shoehorns make life easier for almost everyone. I’ve been using them for 20+ years and wouldn’t miss it.

151 including bots, and 551 communities (I usually browse by /all and just block everything I don’t care about, mostly anime, gaming, regional politics and sports).

Have a look at how some early apple varieties looked like, before they were cultivated:

That article is a wild mix of paranoia and conspiracy theories.

Never expected to read about burning witches, Kill Bill, covid, and government control in one setting.

I guess the author has some good intentions, but the way he presents his stuff makes him seen like a crazy person.

And most of the cons aren’t inherently negative.
