I saw a clip of the performance… It was a really bad lip sync. As in he kept pulling the mic away from his head well before the lyrics were over. I’d heard the controversy and was like, I’m sure it wasn’t that obvious he was lip syncing, and was floored when I saw the actual performance.

Too bad the spell components are a bitch to get ahold of

Especially because they’re trying to emulate the samurai dialect. It’s inaccurate, but deserves points for trying!

“Kitten cuddling” is a euphemism. They are chaos gremlins with needles permanently affixed to their feet.

Still cute tho.

Yeah but O’Brien is Irish-Irish, not Chicago-Irish. He wouldn’t be caught dead with the stuff.

I’ve never used Blender before, but sixty hours is a lot of work! Which part of the process was the most laborious/fiddly? (I saw the 40hr mark shot in another comment, which kind of gives me an idea)

the free and open source office suite trusted by millions of users around the world.

Do I use Libre office? Yes. Do I trust it? Absolutely not (in the sense that I don’t think they’re stealing my data, but wow is the user experience a buggy mess)

Bad headline = downvote

No, this is Patrickortland

Literally the first I’m hearing of Tuta.

Are they legit?

Why is this the Mandela effect version?

I haven’t seen this mentioned yet so:

Do not allow yourself to be persuaded, pressured, or bullied into having kids (including by yourself) until you feel 100% ready and that it’s 100% what you want. The days of “nobody feels ready for kids; just go for it and it’ll all work out” are way over. (This was always survivor bias bullshit advice, but with recent trends re: cost of living, housing availability, job market, etc., this attitude is straight-up reckless.)

When you’re young, even if you think you know what you’re doing, you’ll almost certainly make mistakes; having children makes moving through and moving on from those mistakes a hell of a lot harder. A sad number of folks I know in their 30s are stuck in places they no longer want to live having to regularly interact with people who ruined their lives because of their kids. Even when things go well, kids are a huge drain on your energy, finances, and ability to take advantage of new opportunities.

It might be scary feeling like there are too many options available to you right now, but being forced into a certain life path because you have kids is not a fun way to resolve that.

It has a generally negative connotation, like someone who is filmed throwing a tantrum in public, or who posts a bunch of absolutely furious tweets in response to getting called out. Usually it’s considered an embarrassing and excessive reaction (possibly career-ending, or reputation besmirching). But sometimes you’ll see someone post a video/screenshot of a crash out with the title: “that was the most justified crash out ever,” implying that yes, their reaction was extreme, but for a good reason.

Literal plot of Houseki no Kuni manga (Land of the Lustrous)

So this is what we’re doing on Lemmy today: posting completely random Star Trek clips

I propose a border swap: USA gets Alberta, Canada gets Washington State

(Please I beg you get me out of here)

That’s the portion they have shonen protagonists eat to demonstrate their humorously preposterous appetites

Ngl, Chii-tan looks like they’ve got an unlit Molotov cocktail hiding under their hat, and is just looking for a MFer to throw down on

I mean, if it’s Ferengi and Orion Syndicate themed…

This is c/books; you’re in good company here
