rob_t_firefly, in People who own typewriters, what is your favorite use for it?
@rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world avatar

I had a great old typewriter I’d found at a yard sale decades ago and which was purely decorative, but my absolute favorite use for it was when I gave it to an old friend who had just helped me move apartments. That person was really happy to have it, and being able to gift it with gratitude fulfilled me far more than owning the thing ever had.

pastermil,

Okay, that is nice and all, but what does your friend use it for??

DontNoodles,

Unknown to OP, it has now changed 11 hands over the years. Also unknown to OP, it is coming back to them as this year’s Christmas present. OP is going to be very happy about it.

pastermil,

Spaghetti_Hitchens, (edited ) in What system or method do you use for your monthly budget or personal finance?

I have my wife handle the budget and finances. She is very responsible. I am not.

The system works very well.

BassTurd,

Marrying an accountant was the best financial move I’ve ever made.

I’m more a fan of cutting up magazines myself. It’s not often you get an excuse for some crafts when you’re busy kidnapping heirs and taunting detectives.

INHALE_VEGETABLES,

Is it Sunday Craftnernoon already?

frezik, in Donald Trump May 'Turn Off the Internet'. How even? A thought experiment.

For many countries, it’d be as easy as cutting a few undersea cables. Two to three cut cables in 2008 brought down most of the Arab peninsula.

As for the US and Europe, things are too interconnected for that to work. That said, the Internet as a whole is more centralized than you might expect from its history as a network that was supposed to be nuclear war proof.

shortwavesurfer, in What system or method do you use for your monthly budget or personal finance?

I just use my notes app and the letter “x” Two denote whether that thing has been paid already. I use a method called the Dave Ramsey every dollar method where every dollar has a purpose and you budget in such a way that absolutely every single dollar you get has a job. So, I get paid, and then my bank account is nearly empty two days later, but every dollar has done its job. I know that there are unexpected expenses, so a few dollars are miscellaneous, and their job is just to cover the $5 subscription that comes out quarterly, I forgot, etc.

I believe the system I use is called reckless abandon.

callouscomic,

Good blink 182 song.

Thorny_Insight, (edited ) in What system or method do you use for your monthly budget or personal finance?

I write all my expenses and incomes down onto app called Wallet by budget bakers. I don’t set any monthly budgets or anything however, because I find that keeping track alone already makes me much more mindful consumer. I already have records of my finances for almost 3 years so it’s pretty interesting to get to monitor my spending across a long timeframe.

ILikeBoobies, in Does anyone else resent the links to Reddit?

It’s necessary in some cases

SasquatchBanana,

I rather it be a screencap and then a link in the description or a comment. I just rather not a direct link.

Batman Begins and Dark Knight Rises were boring. Batman & Robin was better than those two.

Buried the lede on this one. I was like, “ok, I can see that.” But you got me in the end.

Artyom, in Does anyone else resent the links to Reddit?

There are some subreddits I don’t want to just lose and I don’t expect them to grow super fast here. I’m glad for these bots, they give me the choice u/spez is trying to steal from me.

Ryan Reynolds finest role in film was Van Wilder. Deadpool is basically Van Wilder in a costume.

reverendsteveii,

Ryan Reynolds’s only role in film is as Ryan Reynolds. This coming from a fan who is very excited for Jason Lee to play him in the biopic.

TAG,
@TAG@lemmy.world avatar

Ryan Reynolds has one character that he plays in all of his movies. It is a character I enjoy seeing, but it is the same character over and over.

s1ndr0m3,

Every Ryan Reynolds character is basically Van Wilder. youtu.be/j_6bscCG7OA?si=7EThhsfuqTM8GYnd

EnderMB,

Of course it is. Why ruin perfection?

Spacehooks, (edited ) in What is your unpopular flim opinion

Tarantino is trash and Ruins movies that should be good with weird edginess. Django unchained would be 10/10 with someone else as director. I never saw a good movie from him. I DK how death proof scores as high as it did. I gave that a 2/20. what a waste or kurt Russell and other good actors.

Furbag,

This is basically exactly what I say any time someone asks me this question. I just don’t get the love for Tarantino. I feel like the previews for his work always disguise how uncomfortable the film is actually going to be to watch when I get there.

Spacehooks,

He RUINED planet terror for me. Would be best zombie movie ever but nooooo he had to have disgusting crap in there.

Darthjaffacake, in What is your unpopular flim opinion

NGL green lantern the movie kinda slapped when I was a kid. I got really into comics partially because of it.

Glowstick, in What is your unpopular flim opinion

Avengers End Game is awful. I usually really like super hero movies, but end game is unwatchable.
