Woever made this image should learn the difference between line spacing and paragraph spacing…
This is an example
of line spacing which
clearly shows it’s together
And now this is a new
bit that is separate from
the above bit
Readability is important.
To be brutally honest though, I didn’t so much want to disagree as really to just post that clip and talk about it. LOL
While that was hilarious, I must humbly - yet strongly - disagree.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGvblGCD7qM - 1m40s in when Dark Helmet throws the mic away does it for me. But my favorite joke - not the best, but my favorite - because I didn’t catch it the first hundred times I saw - is also in this clip at 2m20s where Dark Helmet taps Colonel Sandurz on the chest - who looks at the hand, the camera, realizes it’s coming in, and backs out of the shot. That’s just… oh man, that is like the pinnacle of the detailed thought that went into a very very silly movie.
So many movies just throw actors out there and get them to improv, and that can be great. But the sheer density of hilarity in Spaceballs, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstien and others… it’s just a beautiful thing. When it feels like 75% of the movie is quotable. lol
So I don’t disagree that the Virgin Alarm was great, but I think the above clip is ten times better. But you’re allowed to reverse that rating for you, of course. Long as you and I love the movie, I’m satisfied. :)
requels
Requels suck. We already quelled enough the first time! :)
I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t exit vim.
I bet this comment actually pissed off some people. Lol
Failures are making occasional news, but bots are getting better at walking. Doing useful tasks will be a few more years, but I think it’s coming.
Retard is used to describe the slowing
That word, the verb, is pronounced “ree-TARD”. The “R” word is “REE-tard”.
In the same way that “negro” (NEH-gro) in some languages means black and is perfectly fine, and the same way that Niger (american “NIE-jur” or original “nee-ZHER” is also fine.
I already made my argument and explicitely said I would not debate, but I will simply reiterate: I don’t care about words that USED to be offensive or words that MIGHT ONE DAY be offensive, the “R” word is offensive NOW.
Doubling-down like that is your right, but you are stupidly divorced from reality. I don’t tolerate ablelist bigotry. Goodbye.
Blocked. I don’t fuck around with white supremacist bullshit.
In brief, the people I’m talking about ARE almost all old white men. It just shows who you are that you leap to defend them.
Well, that’s a very good point. And frustrating.
I’d imagine this would be neigh on impossible to measure, but one can generalize some basics. COVID caused massive drops in transportation, so gas prices went down due to less demand.
A truly drastic drop in demand for meat would cause prices to drop. Eventually, some producers would probably stop producing. So eventually, less would be produced. However, a drop in price will increase usage among those who were sensitive to the price, which would limit the reduction in production.
Not the grunts, just the top brass. They don’t care what color you are for you to be sent into the meat grinder.
Good job, Hungary!
I didn’t forget, but it is old white men hyper about this, and considering how many old white men are creepy around teens, suddenly being interested in them getting pregnant is extremely creepy.
Teens will always have sex, sure, although many fewer are as compared to previous decades. I’m not so worried about them.
Also… do we REALLY want teens getting pregnant?
actual fuck
arguably literally yes
Let’s just break this down as a little reminder:
As long as you do realize you’re replying to a silly joke…
I think its grey enough to let slide.
I censor when I quote from Blazing Saddles, but I’m not attempting to say you’re making an incorrect decision - we all decide what we’re okay with, and… dammit, I can’t write this to sufficiently indicate I’m not judging (while disagreeing mildly), but I’m not. lol.
fascism
That’s my theory. The bigots have come back out of their closet and are taking pride and joy in being bigots. “I can say what I like and you little snowflakes can deal with it!” (until we say something they find offensive)
I suppose it’s the least of our worries considering all the other harm that’s been done and is being done, but it[1] certainly contributes.
The racism/bigotry in general ↩︎
You can’t just create such a space. It happens because people who know things hang out in places where people who ask questions also are. And such that the community encourages answering such questions.
If Lemmy continues to grow, it is possible this will happen if enough communities are formed that support in-depth discussion of issue, or become places where people seek help because people there are helpful.
