  Having Bond not be a Brit seems to defeat the whole purpose.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨James Cameron Teases ‘Avatar 3’ Will Be Even Longer Than ‘The Way Of Water’⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Christ, it’s going to take a full work day to watch the thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve definitely thought about trying to get back onto Reddit once I get a computer they don’t recognize.

  My general dislike for modern conservatism to the side, it does reflect a wider issue with lemmy. There is no diversity of opinion on anything. There are no niche communities. Either you like the political and tech subs and the meme subs which are, at a mininum, 60% political, or there really is nothing for you here.

  The manga and anime subs can be good for keeping up with new releases, but not there’s next to no actual discussion.

  While I have no issue with Republicans being shunned for their unashamed fascism, it does mean threads like this are essentially pointless because almost none will actually participate and the ones who do will be downvoted into oblivion.

  Everything Donald Trump has ever done or ever will do, is a grift.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love the future.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am torn between wanting to understand the logic behind this and not wanting to engage with anyone stupid enough to believe this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Murica⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it’s harder to kill someone by hitting them with it.

  But in all seriousness, you can go a lot farther, a lot faster, across much worse terrain and weather in a car than a bike.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So, is the USA screwed?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless there’s a coup when the Supreme Court finds against Trump and he ignores them and Republicans keep Congress from holding him accountable the only way the Court will let them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It insists upon itself⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It insists upon itself It mean it’s trying to be deep, but is really just pretentious and shallow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It insists upon itself⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Historically speaking, it tends to work.

  And for the record, Machiavelli didn’t exactly rule it out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just watched the wrong version of Drive (2011), and didn't realize until the last 10 minutes. Any similar stories?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It took me a good fifteen minutes to realize Grand Moff Tarkin wasn’t in the Universal version of the Mummy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Weekly thread] It's Wednesday, which movies have you been watching?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  II definitely was meant to build the mythos and III wasn’t as bad as people make it out to be, though I can see why they abandoned the idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Weekly thread] It's Wednesday, which movies have you been watching?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Four or Six.

  Five was a bit of a rehash of Four, but Six tried to introduce a new paradigm that didn’t quite carry through.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Weekly thread] It's Wednesday, which movies have you been watching?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been watching the original Halloween movies.

  I understand why people don’t like the later ones, but I still like them, overall.
