Funny that they’re calling them AI haters when they’re specifically poisoning AI that ignores the do not enter sign. FAFO.

- Comment on ‘The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie’ Sets HBO Max Premiere Date - 27th June 5 days ago:
It feels like Ren & Stimpy sometimes because one of the writers (Katie Rice) did work on Ren & Stimpy reboot! So you’re spot on with picking up on that. IMO that adds to it rather than detracts because so much of R&S was making references to or riffing off the ‘golden age’ of cartoons that Looney Tunes was part of, but if that style of humor is boring to you then I could see it detracting from the movie. I wasn’t constantly cracking up or anything, but I was smiling and laughing more than I was bored. Which honestly feels like a huge hurdle for movies now, lol.

I saw this during the theater run and it’s really funny, I recommend it if you like Looney Tunes even a little. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did!

When you’re done with that, check out the Snagglepuss comic! The commenter that said if anything it was better was absolutely right.

the statistic showing that the number of disabled adult middle aged “refugees” is double-digit higher that the same number for Danes
You know refugees aren’t a random sample of the population, right? Why tf wouldn’t there be more refugees from war zones, gang violence, etc with disabilities compared to some random Eestern European country with a population that for the most part deals with none of that? What brain trust managed to convince you that the only way to be a refugee is to like, win an Olympic sprint or something?

You’re right, it is better, and the Flintstones comic was already really good! I went into it knowing a lot of the historical details of the time, but it was a fantastic and emotionally moving representation of it. 10/10.

Just checked out a digital copy from the library 👍

It fucking rules, I’m not kidding! It’s so worth a read. I need to see if the Snagglepuss comic they put out in the same style is also good.

This comic fucking rips, if you’ve never seen or read it.

This. A lot of ‘making everything about politics’ is the reaction of people whose very existence been politicized by those in power.

Bud, you are the one that compared it to calling a woman a lesbian for not wanting to see tits everywhere. That comparison only works if the one complaining about it also has tits, ie is a furry.

Are you the furry who doesn’t want to see fursonas everywhere in this analogy?

Very glad that my dumb ass probably has like 10% less plastic in my brain than most people my age because I never smoked out of cans. Thanks, paranoid teen me!

Mindlessly shoving a paywall on every page on the site is both lazy and indicative of their priorities. Nobody has to do it purposefully for it to still be shitty and revealing.

I’m so glad I left completely (minus the random search result with no other leads, but no browsing) when the API fuckery started, corporate social media sounds like an absolute hellscape now.

That’s basically what Angels Flight in Los Angeles is. Locals got sick of walking up the fuck off steep hill and built a 300 foot rail to go up and down it.
- Comment on ISPs and robocallers love the FCC plan to “delete” as many rules as possible 5 weeks ago:
100% anecdotal, but I’d say the spam callers aren’t even waiting. I’ve had more in the last 2 months than the previous year.

Yeah, I was gonna say whatever is going on with his spine might be hiding a few inches. You’d be amazed how many inches you can lose to curvature without looking like Quasimodo.
But I doubt he was ever 6’3”. That sounds like a number he picked years ago because someone he hates is 6’2”.

On lemmy, a ban can be a few different things:
- Banned from the instance your account is on. This means you have to make a new account, usually on a different instance.
- Banned from a different instance than the one your account is on. This means you get banned from communities you’ve participated in on that instance, and that instance will no longer federate with your account. You might participate in new communities on that instance, and people not on that will see your comments, but people on the instance you were banned from won’t see them. From the perspective of that instance you don’t exist anymore.
- Not banned from any instances, but banned from individual communities. You can’t post in that specific community but can still interact with the instance that community is on.
Like someone else said, clear as mud, lol.
