That’s great to hear. I collect game soundtracks. That’s like when I play a new Life is Strange, it’s an instant soundtrack buy.

Let’s cut all the philosophical crap and focus on what is most important here.

Would you still love me, now that I’m a worm?

Well done soldier! Been seeing a lot of your posts here and I always enjoy your retro gaming pics, especially if it’s one of my favorite formative games like Ocarina of Time.

You’re making me want to dust off my old consoles and hook them up. I need to replay Chrono Trigger to honor Akira Toriyama who passed away this year. Would give me a good excuse to get the SNES up and running.

Celeste for $1.99? Hell yes! Insta buy for me, been wanting to play this game so bad.

But you have heard of me.

What good is a 2nd breakfast, if they’re taking the breakfast to Isengard? (Gard, g-g-g-gard)

Me loading up A Link to the Past and still having a full memory of every palace, which areas are secrets, which walls make the satisfying clink clink clink, and how to get the Golden Master Sword without having to check GameFAQs:

“Hell yeah. Zelda, go put on your green tunic and let’s go save Link.

I got you, boo. 😘

This grosses me out so much. Some men claim they don’t want to get germs on their penis, and that’s their justification. Just walk straight from the urinal snd leave, or they laughably just splash some water on their hands and leave calling it a day. So fucking gross.

I’d love to tell those men just how many droplets of urine bounce from the urinal and directly onto the front of their pants, lower shirt, on their arms, and all over their hands and penis. That shit ain’t clean, and you’re putting urine droplets on your face, eyes, and mouth less than 30 minutes later.

Fucking disgusting.

The simpler times for sure. Who are these handsome young men? I love the smiles on their faces. It looks like they’re up to no good, the little rascals! 😇

She’s a winner in my heart

While some have already been mentioned, I’d also like to call out that we do have the esteemed Academy Award winning actress, Margot Robbie in Lemmy! She posts when she can, and I’m really hoping one day she’ll do an Ask Me Anything with us.

The Stupendous Spider-Man #131:

“How Nefarious! It’s the National!”

Cover Art Description:

Man leaning out of a car window while pointing a gun at Spider-Man in the distance. The man’s license plate says “PRIVATE”, and there are multiple bumper stickers with the words “TRAVELLER” and “NON-COMMERCIAL VEHICLE”.

The National yells fiercely at Spider-Man, “I never entered into a contract with you, Web Head!”

Price sticker had me amused - I never thought of that!

Another suggestion is to buy a card in a different language. Or if it says Mother’s Day where you don’t even bother replacing “Mother” with “Father”, but that might be a bit too intentionally mean so I would only send this depending on what kind of relationship and trauma that OP has.

Trump: “Nobody, and I mean nobody. And I mean that, really I do. No one knows more about Jeff than I do. He and I go way back. Terrific guy, really. Tremendous. Huuuge guy, whatever that means. But I think you know, don’t you? Look, you have to have a real smart, you know what. But I get that. There’s not a lot of smart people running Jeffrey Epstein Island. But at least we have Jeff. He’s all about that. I’m all about that. Americans know everywhere what I want, what I’m all about. I was talking to Jeff’s property… uh, whatever her name is. I don’t know her name, I just grabbed her by the pussy and said, ‘Listen. Listen. You hear that? Exactly. That’s what I mean, that’s what the fake news won’t tell you.’ And she looks at me and says, ‘What?’. And I gotta tell you folks, for real. This is real. And this is what I’m all about. We have to vote the Dems out. Sleepy Joe. Bengazi. Something about Iran or whatever, I don’t really care. But the point is, I think I’ve made my point. And they said to me, something that always sticks in my heart, and I’ll the you the secret. We just have to vote Epstein out. Get the democrats out, and stand up for freedom and vote for Red this year in December. On December 4, make your thing count, you know what I mean? Sleepy Jeff Biden doesn’t know that, does he? It’s sad, really. And I mean that. Just terrible. Sad day in America to be an Epstein, but a great one. Tremendous, even.”

The process of generating AI-Tom Cruise was trivial. They turned on Cruise Control, and it just did the rest of the work for them.

Edit: It is also dead inside.

Happy cake day @ruud@lemmy.world ! Appreciate you hosting all us Reddit Refugees when the Reddit Third-Party API Exodus happened one year ago! And big shout out to you and the other volunteer mods and admins, across multiple instances, that put in their free time to stabilize Lemmy World during the massive uptick in user registration, handling the codebase, the upgrade challenges, the creepy CSAM bad actors last year, and saw us through all the intermittent downtimes we had periodically. Lemmy World has been super stable and reliable since then.

Reminder to all reading this: if you can, chip in and help with server costs for this valuable service. Decentralization FTW

I used to be okay with ads. Back then, they were on television often and gave you a chance to check on things, use the restroom, etc. Internet advertising in the 90s and early 2000s was annoying and pervasive. I was fine with banner ads and only one popup, because you could easily close it and crack on.

But then ads (and the Internet) became personalized with pervasive and predatory tracking. Coupled with the manipulation of algorithms, I’ve grown to despise most centralized systems. I hate advertising and now I make sure to take heavy measures to block as much as I can and reduce my footprint as much as possible within my control.

If companies turn off their telemetry and the personalization, stop selling my information with reckless abandon, and stop leaking my data where they claim “your privacy and security is important to us”, then and only then will I disable my ad blockers.

Former Catholic, now atheist. I’m glad the Pope is making some progressive steps in the Catholic Church including the LGTBQ+ community.

I hope this was a misstep, and the case of a 90-year old man from a different country using language that he was not aware is a slur. I really really hope that, or else all that good will was for nothing.
