Sure, but consider this: the ones who travel and say "I'm from America" sound like boneheads, and ones who say "I'm from the US" sound more thoughtful.

This is pretty cool, if I had enough books I'd probably try using it too!

I'm guessing there's people out there who hear Dewey Decimal and get hit with childhood trauma. But yeah, navigating a library should intuitive and effortless.

I was playing a copy of an N64 Star Wars game with my friend's daughter. She'd never seen an N64 game before and said "Wow! It's Star Wars Minecraft!"

That moment made my day, I'm never giving up video games.

Maybe people are just afraid of bugs.

Well there is a wavebird under them, that's a good sign. They might use that Wii to play them

I just don't understand how some people think rejecting capitalism is going too far. Like it's bad, everyone knows it's destroying us, it takes nothing to admit it. Feels great to be anti-capitalist.

Someone is going to see this and downvote you because they saw you use the word "liberal" negatively and immediately think you're a right-winger or something.

But yeah, if the media outlets would understand that "the economy" (rich peoples yacht money) is based on garbage metrics, maybe they wouldn't act so offended when people call them out on it

Reminds me of this scene from chainsaw man:

Watch some Japanese programming, read any magazine there, and you'll probably notice a huge amount of articles praising people living long, active, healthy lives. Is suicide an issue? Absolutely. But it's ridiculous to say they don't value life, especially when compared to some countries which seem to have a problem with gun violence

Wow, I never noticed that. I always thought it was just a Joel Schumacher thing. Match made in heaven I guess

I love to hate this movie, but I think Freeze's costume, made by an actual armor fabricator is just sick as hell, nipples be damned.

It'll be interesting to see what happens on as the election season heats up in the US. Are smaller communities subject to astroturfing?

There are people who are loudly outraged, Islamic democrats. The DNC does what it always does, ignore them and stoke fear. It's disgusting.

It'll probably happen with millennials and younger too. It's true we got fucked over, but for some people it's surprisingly easy "fuck you I got mine" as we age, and there will always be grifters who take advantage of that.

Ancaps and tankies are everywhere these days. No good place for an old fashioned ancom anymore.

Then again, same as it ever was.

Oh I'm definitely not knocking Lemmy. But what I mean is, Tumblr is just, y'know. Sigh, I'll put this way

I mean yeah Tumblr isn't great, but it does happen to be one of the only places on the internet where you can just be gay and not have to worry about it at all, so that counts for a lot.

It sounds like a very UK thing, yeah? I'm trying to think of what the US equivalent would be (I grew up there) but I can't think of anything. I can picture a 40+ coworker (my age too) listening to the beastie boys and rage quitting though

Nice! Also thanks for the image transcript, I'm not visually impaired the image looked cool and this helped me find out about Ultrakill
