I can vouch for Longmont municipal fiber. Blazing fast, and the price is locked in at $50 per month for life. We’ve never had an outage. There are absolutely no downsides, it has even forced Comcast to improve their own infrastructure and pricing in the area to compete.

Everyone knows a chicken’s personality is stored in the thighs.

It’s named after a song. I think the main character might briefly say he dreams about going there. Obviously you haven’t seen it, but there’s really no need to get offended.

By the way, I highly recommend watching it for everyone else, especially if you’re a fan of Terry Gilliam. Not you though, guy I’m replying to. You should stick to less challenging topics to avoid hurting your own feelings.

It’s a dystopian movie. It has literally nothing to do with the country.

Are you thinking of the film or the country?

The film has a large overbearing surveillance state / bureaucracy as the chief antagonist, it’s about the suppression of art and loss of human connection. Do you see it differently?

Kids are dumb

Nah, I can see it.

• 1984: they’re rewriting history / propagandizing
• Idiocracy: the morons are in charge
• Hunger Games: they’re pitting us against each other
• Brave New World: they’re distracting us with entertainment

The others seem to fall pretty well into those categories.

“Here’s what my talking parrot thinks about this issue”. Great input, if I wanted to talk to a chatbot I’d do that. This isn’t a conversation, it’s meaningless noise regurgitated by a machine.

Alright who knows how to set up a lemmy group chat? Is that a thing? Can’t have homies without a group chat.

I’ll be your homie, bro.

You just screenshot it and then paste as image!

Could have been worse, “gashole” doesn’t have the same ring.

I never pretended to be a bride. I didn’t see many weddings as a kid, so probably not a lot of reason to latch onto that. Plus, pretending to be a princess is much better! Fancy dress, but more color options and you also get to boss people around. Also, no lame boys needed.

Does one need feet to kick?

Am I doing it right?

I got an in-the-mail thank you card from someone I interviewed once. We didn’t end up hiring them but it was a nice gesture. I know when I was first interviewing for jobs ~20 years ago it was common advice to send a followup / thank you.

Kinda captures their essential nature, though. The fluff is pretty deceptive.

He’s such a long boi!

Just look at this skink!

There is a game called “fuck, marry, kill” where you’re given a list of three people and you have to choose to fuck one, marry another, and kill the third. For example: Trump, Vance, and Putin… which would you choose to fuck, marry, or kill?
