I just opened my new discman earlier today. Still kind of newfangled since it has a rechargeable battery as opposed to needing double A's, and can read mp3's from a micro SD card. Wouldn't be surprised if it has a flux capacitor somewhere in there too. Back in my day... gradually nods off while muttering
- Herbert Hoover
- List of Extinct Dog Breed
- United States Senate Elections 2026 in [State]
- A Woman Under the Influence
- Gengar
And people to show up and vote in the primaries for the above mentioned candidates!
I think @protist was close with the Night of the Lepus suggestion, but I think a different movie about a bunch of rabbits may actually be more thematically fitting.
Watership Down
A small group of people/rabbits breaking off from a very large group. Forewarning bad things happening in the larger group that they are fleeing. Attempting to invite others to join them along the way to increase their numbers to a sustainable level. Conflict with another group of domineering authoritarians.
It's all there.
Not my intended angle. If it is coming across as something personal I didn't word my post appropriately. Imbalance between being concise and being clear. My point was aiming at the underlying concept and not the person who was posting.
Yeah. Insofar as that goes I guess we both agree that people should feel comfortable in their own skin. It's more a question of external and internal influences.
Not really fired up. Just injecting some food for thought. It's healthy to be willing to bear some scrutiny toward certain under examined ideas/conventions.
I understand. I just saw an opportunity to highlight what I see often go as unquestioned convention that really deserve to be questioned a bit more.

The picture humorous because we live with socially conditioned beauty standards that dictate that female identifying humans who don't rid themselves of naturally occurring body hair are to be considered unattractive and/or subversive.
Haha!
Or have we lived long enough to see the 4-chan meme of identifying as an attack helicopter become a real thing‽
Just five is so limiting:
Mario Kart Mega Man 3 Donkey Kong Country Jet Moto Final Fantasy VII
Even expanding to ten feels restrictive, alas:
Heroes of Might and Magic 3 The Neverhood Perfect Dark Seventh Guest Earthworm Jim
The topic was "What band has the most annoying fans?", and the Manowar fandom found my comment.
This album has spun continuously in my vehicle for the past two weeks. Still not tired of it, but time to give something else a shot. May this serve as my send off to such a killer album; til next time.
The loudest band I've ever seen. Imagine this at deafening volume levels: insane.
from the album Hurtbreak Wonderland
Tasty riffing, tasty vocals, TASTY guitar solo!
If this doesn't get you going I don't know what to tell you.
from the album Propagande érogène
![Fête de la Fédération, by Les Chants de Nihil [OFFICIAL]](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/7c4805eb-09bd-43ee-8755-c3f948b7b865.webp?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
One of the most transcendent vocal passages I know of. Just as affective hearing it the hundredth time as it was the first.
I think Ron Jarzombek might be a cyborg, but I can't prove it.
Edit: Sorry for the bum link. The original video is super cool, but Dailymotion apparently sucks. I'll try to see if I can get a work around and show it in the comments.
This album stands toe to toe with any of the most classic death metal albums you can name.
from the album The Light at the End of the World
I don't recall having seen this pop up in this community. Give a rundown of your favorite albums. Top slot, top 3, top 5, 10... whatever's easiest to you since I know it can be tough to narrow things down to a specific degree.
It'll be interesting to see where everyone is coming from in this regard. Could create for a good opportunity to discuss albums, find people with similar tastes, argue that a different album from someone's catalog is better, etc.
I'll throw mine down in a separate comment once I get it figured out.
My favorite song by these guys. It's not their heaviest/most technically interesting/most classic/etc., but it hooks me so hard.
Solid AF album. I don't listen to it enough, but every time I do I'm always reminded why I grabbed a copy immediately after hearing it for the first time.
