Everyone Watches TV with Subtitles Now. How’d That Happen? in c/moviesandtv@lemmy.film

I think the TV used to be more of a "whole family" activity. I like to keep the sound down and subtitles on as a way to be considerate towards other people in the house.

I vote defederate. This isn't a question of putting up with a little fascist rhetoric on an otherwise acceptable instance. Exploding heads is exclusively fascist rhetoric, bad faith users, and spam bots.

We have nothing to gain from listening to them.

What's your favorite memory from the early internet? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] gmatkins@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

The owner of a site called zug dot com wrote a lengthy and hilarious essay on his treatment for an anal fissure. There were MS Paint illustrations of the procedure.

I was enthralled but also learned a lot about using humor to discuss situations that a person would otherwise be ashamed of.

To my knowledge at least. You can tell from the slightly different art style that this is a very early strip.

It's always funny to me when Calvin's mom shows any kind of reaction.
