It's a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it's easy to block out communities with racist, homophobic, and xenophobic views. On the other hand, it allows communities like that to become echo chambers and freely further their abhorrent ideals completely unchecked.

I don't think the ban hammer is the most effective method of shutting down nazi shit, but it's a hell of a lot better than shutting it out of sight and trying to forget about it.

To be fair, racism is absolutely one of the core values of anti woke ideology.

My cousin got a new TV and I was helping to set it up for him. During the setup thing, it had an option to enable AI enhanced audio and visuals. Turning the ai audio on turned the decent, but maybe a little sub par audio, into an absolute garbage shitshow it sounded like the audio was being passed through an "underwater" filter then transmitted through a tin can and string telephone. Idk who decided this was a feature that was ready to be added to consumer products but it was absolutely moronic

A true pirate Captain! Take what you want, give nothing back! Yaarrrrr!

They seriously censoring drawings they don't like as if that's gonna stop anyone? What sort of things they been censoring?

Whiskey stones. Get solid stones or stainless steel ones. Ideally don't get any with liquid cores.

I can't remember the exact quote but someone once said "if all porn was removed from the internet tomorrow, by the next day there would be one website left called bringbacktheporn.com

I had literally no idea that's how most people feel after doing chores. Even when I've actually done something pretty big like cleaning my whole kitchen or tidying up an entire room, If I feel anything other than indifference each time I see it, it's usually along the lines of damn, that was a lot of work, not looking forward to doing that again.

I'm holding out hope for boost lemmy. Used boost exclusively for Reddit for the longest time. Jebora seems to work best for me but Ive had both Jeb and connect for a while.

I wasn't aware before watching but clocked in fairly quickly! I think the allegory was done really well and as trans representation goes, it definitely one of the most positive ones without feeling "preachy" to me.

Glad you liked it too! What was your favourite scene? I'm torn between the escape scene after confronting the director and ambrosious, and the "evil ballister" subway scene. so much heart and character in just those two scenes!

Spiderverse is a very close first for me too! So glad I caught it in cinemas! I missed into the spiderverse in cinemas unfortunately so this was a real treat for me!
