Wanna bet?

I’ve been handing out free copies of shit for over a decade now. Shit that I got published as an author.

I would absolutely do the same with software. Mind you, that’s assuming I was allowed to. It’s unlikely any given code monkey is going to own the company entirely with that kind of hardware.

About the same as I feel about rage bait titles

Psst, be vewy vewy kwiet, I’m twowwing vegans.

Is it not though? Vegans act like it’s their religion, it fulfills similar social needs, they behave in the same wau as religious zealots. They exhibit the same assumption that their belief is the one true belief, and anyone that does not come to their belief is flawed.

Seems pretty similar to me

I don’t see any other vegans calling them down for it

My cousin is like that. I enjoy trolling online vegans because they tend to be the zealots, but I don’t actually have anything against the “ism” itself. Different strokes, and all that.

My cousin gets a big old pot of vegan chili when he’s in town because he likes it, and I like making it for him. We poke fun at each other over bowls of the stuff.

Lmao! Dude, that’s the single best response in the entire thread! Counter-trolling ftmfw! I can’t even come back at that one, I’m laughing too hard. No bullshit, thank you for that :)

Lmao! I see what you did there

Huh? I dunno how to break it to you, but being an adult is about handling your shit. You get your shit done. No excuses, no h alf-assing things.

If you use a disability as an excuse to not handle your shit, you aren’t adulting. And that’s coming from a physical cripple. You find the tools you need, you find accommodations that get the job done.

Now, much like with physical disability, neurodivergence can mean that you simply can’t do the same things as anyone else. That’s why things like ssi and ssdi exist, they give you room. I’m not talking a literal job in all cases, I’m talking about getting the shit done that is within one’s ability to perform.

But there’s always a point where a person has to decide to either handle their shit or punk out and use their limitations as an excuse. And that’s what the cartoon is about, imo.

I didn’t object to the idea of a lyrical song, it was the shitty lyrics that were the problem for me

‘Wonka’ Granted China Release On Same Day As ‘Migration’; Both Pics Rolling Out Early Overseas (lemmy.world)

‘Warner Bros/Heyday Films’ Wonka has been granted a December 8 release in China, a week ahead of the domestic start and as part of an early overseas rollout for the Timothée Chalamet-starrer. Wonka will be going the same day as Universal/Illumination’s Migration in China.’

Well, I’m open to other interpretations in general. There’s room for that, despite the Wilder Wonka being impossible to beat.

I didn’t hate Charlie and the chocolate factory, though that’s mostly because it was a movie of the book rather than a new version of the movie.

And, I like chalumet (however it’s spelled). He’s done some good work. So I’m not against the idea of him doing it.

It’s what you said, it feels like a cash grab rather than a genuine attempt at making a new movie. Those so rarely end well. And, if it sucks as bad as I fear, it kinda t aints the story itself; it would be harder for someone else to do a new movie based on the book in the future (I still maintain that the Wilder movie wasn’t meant to be a true translation of the book, and the Depp movie failed at that despite trying). I’d like to see a truly faithful translation of the book.

Man, I hate that I have this gut feeling the movie is going to suck.

I got one of their limited runs from a buddy about two years ago. I can’t really say it was better than the standard. A little “hotter”, even, swish which isn’t something I tend to prefer.

I’m a fan of Elijah Craig, personally. I’m not a drinker, but that’s my go-to when I decide I want a drink

@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

Not necessarily.

People can be that strange. It makes it hard to weed out the absurd and surreal things by origin (human vs bot)

Nah, they dropped the whole fangirl thing as a common occurrence a while back in comics. The show doesn’t lean into it very much.

I can’t say the show was a 10/10, but they kept the spirit of the character that well. The ending was “good enough” imo

A privacy video on YouTube, complaining about Google…

Shit, I did cry. Then I sent the link to my mom that was around for the Beatles when they were hitting the US, and she cried.

I have no clue why it hit me so hard, but damn it did.
