Interesting suggestion. I'll check that out next time I'm there, thanks!

I've been on a goat cheese kick recently. It's really good but also very expensive

A kinda raunchy stand-up. I generally like her stuff. Here's one of her bits I like: https://youtu.be/wvxSnJUk3LA?si=2OzE_8gm-CYMBO1u

Sure, but we're all people posting on Fediverse content. We are not the vast majority of the population. My advise is to help make this dude as generally appealing as possible. We should not pretend we're the average people on these apps

That's all pretty close to what I'd say. It's not a popular show amongst women and trying to explain "No, Dan Harmon wrote some really poignant critiques about modern pop culture" is a losing battle when what everyone knows about the show is screaming Szechuan Sauce losers, Justin Roiland's general sex pest attitude, and generally gross content (including pedophile rape!) Don't start dating someone by justifying something they dislike, just sell the good parts about yourself

Are there women who like Rick and Morty? Of course. If you're on a dating app it's all a numbers game and Rick and Morty is one of the easiest ways to get the largest amount of women to immediately dismiss you. I would struggle to find someone who suggests associating yourself with it to increase your chances at going on a date. OP is asking Lemmy for dating profile tips, so I feel you need to make certain things very clear about how to succeed

Never, ever, ever, ever, put Rick and Morty in your bio. I legitimately think you'd have better success putting your preferred porn categories. I like Rick and Morty, I live with my girlfriend, and I still don't watch it around her. There are very few popular things that actively repulse women as much as that show.

In the realm of more useful advice, Tinder bios are worthless, your pictures do all the work. Hinge, OKCupid, and Bumble will be a little better for profiles. Depending on the games you like maybe focus on board games or something a little more expressive than Fortnite and Minecraft. Books are great, put something you're actively/recently read, put your favorite and ask for suggestions. It seems you're metal adjacent in music tastes so maybe put some more general metal to hook other metal heads but not scare off everyone else

Finally, pick something goofy or weird to stick out with. I am great at tetris so I put that I have a standing offer to buy drinks for anyone who can beat me. Nobody will ever actually take you up on it but it gives you a way to stand out while also showcasing your interests

Feel free to post your profile for critique. Making good dating profiles is hard and getting unbiased internet opinions is harsh, but helpful

I see that you've got Konosuba on your list but not the Megumin prequel so I'd suggest Konosuba: An Explosion on this Wonderful World

It was, the minions were canonically frozen during WWII presumably so they wouldn't have to say they worked for Hitler

Where did you get anything about this being about trans people? Most places that are against the use of the word female are just trying to keep incels away. Normal people call them women and especially online when female gets used it is by gross, cringy men

Stop it. Capitalism doesn't magically fix problems. See carbon offsets for an example of this fail

No, that story was written in '67 and all major publications of it were well before Tudyk was famous

Nope! All mainline Final Fantasy entries are independent! There's common themes, elements, character names, etc. but you can learn about them from any of the games. Final Fantasy XVI is actually pretty different in tone from the past several mainline games so it's arguably more distinct. That plus the active time lore system make it a great jumping in point in my opinion

From what I can tell it happens when someone posts a comment on old posts

Hey man, that's not cool. Once I finish this round of Fortnite, take a 2 hour lunch, and go afk at 4 I'll reply to this in 2 or 3 days asking you for an update

"People whose job is a popularity contest shocked that their unpopular actions put their job at risk"

I just wish their actions actually caused their support to drop proportionally but they just keep gerrymandering harder and harder to prevent themselves from facing consequences
