Some people have experiences which have left them embittered towards a younger, more hopeful generation. Despite 100's of years of exploitation, absolute failure, and hundreds of millions of people starving to death, getting killed for things such as not wanting to work weekends, and sent to work to death for having the absolute cajones to do what they need to do to provide for their loved ones, they STILL insist that capitalism is the only way forward because it's the only thing they've ever known.

The average human may not stand out amid 8 billion other people, but each and every person is unique and therefore special in their own way.

Everyone wants to work, to do something, but no one wants to have a job because your worth as a human shouldn't be tied to how much money you can earn for someone else. (And, inb4 "art is not a job", that is so fucking disingenuous; if you think that art isn't essential, then STOP listening to music, STOP watching television and movies, STOP reading books and newspapers, and then get back to me.) People naturally provide for those they care for and, news flash, people care about other people and their identities.

I know you're probably just trolling because you hate your life under capitalism and need to feel like you're a part of something, but like join the club bro.

I used to check there every day but it's been two weeks of not. It's great! I'm checking out here and Lemmy (I like kbin's layout and vibes a lot, but Lemmy has beta apps lol) I feel like I've had more time for life.

It’s simply a matter of time, on the matter of months and months and months to years.

Hi Cev! Nice to meet you, I’m Cal :) I’m 27 and from the US. I feel you about being less certain of my gender every day lol! As long as I don’t think too much about it I’m not too concerned 😵‍💫 anyway I use he/they pronouns mostly.

I also enjoy gaming and hanging out! I also like to cook and bake (and get baked), read, draw, garden, go hiking/camping…

I have read various interviews and such where they both have said things to the effect of, they each remember having written certain parts, and that there are parts which neither remember writing.

The difference isn’t just that one is Some Guy and one is Some Guy Who Went To Seminary, the difference is that confessions are supposed to be kept confidential (between the person, their priest, and arguably God), not “confidential” (between the person and the priest, who then rats them out to the boss.)

Marvel Snap, though while the gameplay is fun the monetization is getting a bit out of hand. I think it can still turn around, though. I’m more of a DC guy myself too!

I also do a lot of crosswords haha. I have Magic Arena downloaded but I don’t really enjoy playing standard.

Finally I have been getting back into Pokémon go a little bit. My partner recently picked it back up too!

Princess Mononoke is my favorite for sure. I love the character design, the setting, the environmental storytelling. And wulfy

Besides that though…I really really liked Spirited Away. So rich and nuanced. I liked the twists and turns the film took

I always want to say like, Dark Souls in general but then I remember. I remember

Honestly tho I’m still trying to chase the high of my first playthrough of Undertale (yeah yeah.) I played it right after it came out and happened to be going through a lot. I definitely played it a few times after that and it’s always great but I feel like the first was just magical.

Hello, everyone! Let’s discuss this week’s new card release: Spider-Ham!

Spider-Ham

What do you think of this card? Do you think it will see widespread use? Will we start seeing more and more Agatha decks? Let the discourse begin!

Side note: this has also been posted on the Marvel Snap magazine, @MarvelSnap ! Come check us out:)

My week was actually not bad! I adopted a couple of snails from my garden and started a new sourdough starter. I was a bit stressed about those things going well but the snail terrarium turned out great and my starter is bubbling along happily. Work was a bit tiring but at least not awful. Hope y’all are doing well!

Okay, so, I am not thrilled about D&D writing/producing but Rian Johnson is somewhat exciting. Also I really really enjoyed the books. Especially during the last one, I would be a million light-years away daydreaming about them.

Side note: if anyone is interested in this show but is hesitant about the Netflix adaptation, Tencent has a really faithful, really engaging adaptation. It’s available on their streaming app, as well as Amazon Prime and on YouTube (where you can watch all 30 episodes for free.)
