Out of all the things that Spotify is shitty for that’s the least of my worries about them, and I fucking hate right-wing shitheads. People would rather see the artists they love starve if it gave them convenience to enjoy their art without actually paying for what they do.

It’s honestly kind of baffling to see people go up in arms enough to side with fucking Disney “in support of artists” because AI is supposedly stealing from them and the same people go on with their lives and put on Spotify and feel self-righteous. People fucking suck.

Castlevania, Zelda and Silent Hill (though I’d say all first 3) mentioned so I’m gonna say Alundra. Sure it’s very Zelda/JRPG, but that game had some amazing music that just sticks with you.

Also a little tongue in cheek, but Adventures of Lolo. I’m not sure if there’s just one song throughout the trilogy, but it sure feels like it. Weirdly it doesn’t bother you. It’s like a hypnosis that just makes you play one more level. One more try. Kind of like the Tetris soundtrack, but it never gets old.

probably my favorite Aronofsky movie along with Pi Same! I think a lot of it has to do with it being a kind of a sad, sappy and dark from the start or something, I don’t know. I just feel like people don’t necessarily like the vibe and mood of it (as if something like Requiem for a dream is any more hopeful or upbeat). It’s a very powerful movie.

I’m glad someone enjoyed it! I don’t think I could cringe as much watching a show as when I was watching that. I’d rather watch Dawson’s Creek or something. There were a lot of elements that could’ve made it great, but it just really felt horrible watching it the whole time. In comparison the weird X-Files reboot was at least kind of fun, Dexter was like watching a trainwreck to me.

No-one’s mentioned Dexter yet, so I’m gonna go ahead and do that. What a shit show. I really don’t get why they brought it back from the dead. Sure the original ending was kind of shitty, but it wasn’t that bad they had to revive it and kill it for good.

There is no report feature yet. Most admins/mod teams I’ve seen respond to issues like these have said to report to them directly by direct message.

Yeah, my parents went from chucking EVERYTHING in the same bin, food waste, cardboard, paper, batteries, whatever it is it went in the same bin and it smelled like death and leaked every single time. Now they recycle cardboard, at least milk cartons. I mean sure, there’s some change, but what use is it when the change should be pretty fucking big to make a difference - like you say, too little too late.

Ween saved my life. They’re the best.

I’m glad this is happening while most of the Boomers are still alive, they can see exactly what kind of world they’re passing on to their grandchildren before they go.

LMAO as if they give a shit. I talked with my parents about how they’re so privileged to be able to be so carefree (read: careless) about everything while I probably won’t ever see retirement or necessarily be able to drink water from the tap (we have excellent water) like they do and it was like I was talking an alien language. They don’t give a fuck.

My folks had a stove with two (electric) heat elements in the same way I assume OP has, to use both, you had to go 360° all the way to a full circle where it “clicked”, then go back to where you wanted it at. Much easier and sensible IMO than whatever the hell this headache is.

That’s it! Thanks

See, I knew I was smaht!

Lol obviously, brainfart on my behalf. Is there a word for those kinds of sarcastic (for lack of a better word) quotes where it’s not just quoted, but implied to cast doubt on the original text/quote?

Look at you telling on yourself putting “it” in “air quotes” and all.

Exactly.

“Owning the [insert taste of the month]”.

It’s the same exact shit as "how can you tell someone’s vegan? - THEY’LL TELL YOU ABOUT IT!!!, yet in my entire 30+ years of life I’ve never heard anyone ever say they’re vegan or vegetarian or anything unless asked about, but I have a feeling I won’t stop hearing someone announce that they eat meat AND MEAT ONLY or some shit like that until I die.

Shit got tired before it even started, because it’s just the same old shit in a different wrapper.

No that’s it exactly, lol, we’re getting lost in a jungle of double-negatives.

• The Onion - satire
• Not the Onion - things that happen that are so outlandish you’d think it is satire
• This - Neither, cause it’s someone making shit up, just some conservative asshole flogging the same dead horse with the same, tired old stick joke

I thought “not the onion” wasn’t supposed to be satire, except I don’t know if this even counts as satire, this is just dumb. Literally the same joke, every time.

It is! Clint Mansell and Aronofsky are a match made in heaven, but The Fountain is one of favorite soundtracks of all time and the one I listen to the most. I don’t tend to listen to soundtracks all that much, but I find myself listening to the Fountain all the time

I was honestly a little shocked to find The Fountain rated so low, Tomatometer (fuck the tomatometer anyway, audience score is where it’s usually at) was 52% with scathing reviews, the audience score fortunately remedied the situation with 74% cause I was seriously starting to look for another site.

And for it’s opposite: The Blair Witch Project is 86% vs 56%. I haven’t seen it in ages, have been planning to, but it was one of my favorite movies for a while.

Well I mean, while Gen-Z humor and memes are mostly a lot more abstract and surreal and while there are elements of that in the beans meme it’s not really just that. It’s a concept piece. In a similar way Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup was and similar pieces of art.

The whole point was to make a point about something, namely, like the title of the post lays it out itself “I heard that lemmy will upvote anything. This is literally just a can of fucking beans”. What it says about the lemmy community, maybe nothing, maybe it’s just a fucking can of beans and there really is no intended or inherent deeper meaning and that is irrelevant really.

My point being, it’s kind of all things you talked about, but even more, but also just beans. Schrödinger’s beans.
