  • Film is a great way to show you an experience that may expand your perspective. The viewer is usually challenged by this as they have to empathise with a person outside of their comfort zone.

    A good example is when a character first comes off as bad and you have to really feel his situation and empathise with him to understand why he made the choices he did and two people might walk away thinking different things about if he was right or wrong. This is a lot more involved than non challenging films where the intentions are out in the open.

    Theyre fun if you’re in the mood but theres nothing wrong with chucking on something mindless, entertaining and enjoying.

    Driving with my mum was insane. She kept screaming that I was to close to the cars and holding on for dear life.

    Relax women ive played GTA I know how to drive already. Do not bring the vibes of fear and panic into my automobile. No one drives the speed limit anyway.

    What do you mean a wild take, do you think tradies dont say this? When I worked in construction it was common to hear people suggesting drop out of high school and join the trades. I think you should at least finish highschool but if you’re really doing shit in school then fuck it why not. Plus its just a joke, its not that serious.

    Thats not true at all. Much of the work humans need to survive still requires humans.

    The fact is that people aren’t going to work and getting paid by businesses that produce products nobody wants.

    You are overthinking about a meme. There is nothing stopping you and 3 people from having a picnic in the park. I could do it every week. Someone unemployed getting the benefit could do this every week. Thinking that the current economic system is preventing people from this is insane.



  • Its hard to break into peoples minds with no advertising budget.We can’t tell people on reddit about Lemmy because reddit bans your account.

    Lemmy got a ton of traffic after the api black out and it did an incredible Job at retaining a lot of those users. There were 200k active users and Lemmy was much more unstable at the time. Active users did fall off as expected but 50k stayed for 2 years. Thats great in my opinion. If we had another migration wave I reckon the retention would be even higher.

    For someone to switch from reddit to Lemmy three things need to happen

    1. They need to know it exists

    2. They need to dislike reddit or centralised corporate controlled social media on an ideological level.

    3. They need something disruptive to happen. Either a ban or a change they dont like.
