Voyageurs stood out to me as similar. It’s a fishing, canoeing, “fuck off into the woods and get away from it all” kind of park. It’s the opposite end of the spectrum from the Gateway Arch.
Aye. My mother met dates through church and barn dances; friend of a friend vouching for a dude was enough. I am exposed to easily 50x the number of people that she was and at the same time “third places” are dwindling; mechanisms for social vetting have to evolve too.
If I can’t find any record of a person, I’m going to be really cautious about spending time IRL, same as not walking off alone with the stranger who crashed the dance who no one has ever seen before.
If people are dating through mutual contacts, sure, social media plays minimal part if any. Online dating? Hell no I’m not meeting a rando until I know they are a real person with base level social skills.
Prime because it’s bundled with free shipping, I can’t remember the last time I opened up the app though.
I recently dropped Disney+ because I wasn’t watching enough to warrant the money. I’m burned out on Marvel and Star Wars.
A video platform for a very specific niche sport that is tough to find in the US. I keep the $5/month subscription year round, even out of season, because I actively want this group to succeed.
Proton freebie account doesn’t have a phone number requirement to sign up. They do say they sometimes require “human verification”. Idk what that means and didn’t have to provide any identifying information to open an account.
Account recovery is a separate question. If you lose access and want some backup option to verify via a separate email account, obviously the alt email address would have to be provided to use that feature.
By releasing a “Snyder Cut” every time, aren’t they saying he either can’t put a decent movie together or that the studio doesn’t trust him to? Lame gimmick that makes them all look bad.
If I watch a version, I’m going to watch whichever is shortest. Sprawling, slow meandering stories aren’t my thing and knowing Snyder, most of the extra length will be in unnecessary slow-mo shots.
I’m here for conversation and seeing perspectives new to me. Cheers to the folks who create art or coding projects or whatever, I’ll enjoy the OC that interests me and be happy for the Creator’s talents, but that’s not the primary reason I’m on Lemmy.
