I used to hate subtitles but now I have them on for literally everything and my experience is actively worse without them. I don't want to misunderstand anything the characters are saying! I want all of the dialogue!

This is my personal argument tbh. Water transfers wetness but it can transfer it's wetness to other water.

I've always become a major Frogwares fan over time. This is very very welcomed for me

Yeah that's pretty much what Nosferatu has always been. The main difference is literally just what you want the vampire to be called.

This is INCORRECT!!! I just found one of these coins and the bird and man sides were actually THE OTHER WAY!

The bird and man labels in this image are a LIE! Do not fall for the propaganda!!

Spy was a movie that felt like it was making fun of her other roles in a way that made me enjoy it. The subversive aspect was good. I fully understand why it wouldn't appeal to someone else though since it literally is the same character she's played in a ton of other stuff.

What changed with Melissa McCarthy?

I loved her in Spy and Only Murders in the Building but I haven't seen anything she's been in for AWHILE otherwise

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

The only two things I can say that I enjoy her in are Spy and Only Murders in the Building.

In both cases the rest of the movie/show carries her but she doesn't actively make them worse like she does with 90% of the stuff I've ever seen her in...

You're right! I fully forgot about penguin!

Both would be fine options tbh. I personally find the blender one to be functional but a bit clunky since it's clearly not the main focus though so it's probably the lesser of the two options if that's all you're doing

I think that's honestly why I think he's fun. His king Arthur movie is a hardcore guilty pleasure as someone who enjoys the actual king Arthur myths...

Why the fuck did they try to make him a superhero???

It's just blind stupid fun but they don't have an ego attached like the rocks movies do

This is a video I uploaded yesterday and I'm really proud of it. I genuinely don't think you need any TF2 knowledge going in and I'm really really happy with how it looks visually.

I genuinely see this as more of an art piece than a normal YouTube video and I would really appreciate it if someone who doesn't know any TF2 nonsense could give their thoughts.

I'm a writer/animator/YouTuber/content creator.

For a little while now I've been consistently putting only fediverse links in the description of my videos. Every video includes my mastodon and a link to the Lemmy post in my community about the video.

So far I don't think this has had literally any tangible effect in growing Lemmy or Mastodon (my mastodon continues to sit at 0 followers), however, I'm hoping that by continuing to include these links and simply having Lemmy be a presence that people see... That will make people more likely to sign up in the future.

My channel and my content are rather small but hopefully just existing in a space where non-fedi users hang out is enough to get people to accept the fediverse more easily.

To me, this feels like an easy way to grow the fediverse... I don't need to explain what it is or how it works... I just provide a link and it opens how people would expect.

I'd love to hear anyone else's thoughts on this practice or other ways that I could include the fediverse into stuff without actively scaring away people that don't like big words.

For me it's The Rock and Chris Pratt.

Guardians of the Galaxy was great but I just wish he would stop playing starlord in every other role he's in!

 

I'm not religious personally but TGI Fridays is a very popular after-church spot (according to all of the religious/former religious people I asked). Why are none of them mad about this?

How could they actively support a restaurant so sinful it includes a sin in the title?
