  • Yeah, in good and in bad, this place is a lot like “the old days of the internet”, but thankfully more in the good way than the bad. People keep complaining about shit I haven’t seen for a second, constantly there are actions from the mod/admin side about shit I’ve never even seen etc. Even without proper mod tools and shit it seems like everything is working out quite well. To which I and all of us owe a huge thank you to the people working on this stuff.

    Thank you people! Thank you for making this place feel like home and something greater than what we’ve had for a long ass time.



  • I’m glad this is happening while most of the Boomers are still alive, they can see exactly what kind of world they’re passing on to their grandchildren before they go.

    LMAO as if they give a shit. I talked with my parents about how they’re so privileged to be able to be so carefree (read: careless) about everything while I probably won’t ever see retirement or necessarily be able to drink water from the tap (we have excellent water) like they do and it was like I was talking an alien language. They don’t give a fuck.







  • Lol, haha, I never thought about that. I used to watch a shit-ton of movies as a teen. Got into horror movies, David Lynch and weird stuff early on so I kind of dove into the deep end very early and with no social life there was a lot of time to watch a lot of stuff.

    I seem to be having a phase where I don’t really watch movies that much (series more than ever), but when I do it’s usually kind of “comfort food” so I’m mostly watching all-time favorites over and over again.


  • The Thing,

    Naked Lunch,

    Evil Dead 1 & 2,

    The Big Lebowski,

    Videodrome,

    Alien,

    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,

    For a Few Dollars More,

    Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,

    Lost Highway & Mulholland Drive,

    The Fountain, Pi, The Holy Mountain, El Topo, Princess Mononoke, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Big Trouble in Little China, The Wicker Man (the og)

    And I probably watched Donnie Darko and Ichi the Killer enough times as a teen that they both reach the top

    God I watch a lot of movies still.

    e:typo, not Donnie Dario




  • IMO Shameless was great for the first few seasons and then quickly deteriorated into 75% ragebaity bullshit. I mean I watched it all the way through anyhow, but it could’ve been so much better. It showed so much promise, but the development of so many of the characters was just enfuriating honestly. Gonna watch the UK original soon I think.

    The Bear so far has been really great, I can see it going many ways though. I haven’t watched the new season past the Christmas episode, mainly because it really felt a little too much like Christmas at home and it’s taking me a while to breathe after that. I’m just hoping it doesn’t go the same path Shameless went.



  • A similar thing would be great over here too, but I think it shouldn’t be in some way reddit-adjacent and I don’t think this community could ever shift to that. Not after what’s happened. There needs to be a new thing especially since this community is more about bitching about Reddit you know? If it was that easy a ton of subs on reddit would be about something completely different than what they were established for. You don’t just change an established agenda just like that.

    Lemmy in general often feels a lot more like old Reddit already, which is what TrueReddit tried to hold on to.
