@DoucheBagMcSwag @dejected_warp_core they also get people to install them with vouchers and raffles.
@NickEast_IndieWriter @reading @bookstodon @books @fantasy @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop yeah, but... I've been everything except science and sports on that list at one point or another. And the science part is debatable
@Cocodapuf @ChilledPeppers we didn't adopt, but some of our friends did, and it's been hard. I don't think they regret it at all, but hearing from them I always feel humbled when I feel exhausted from my own kids. At least we don't have to deal with the constant court cases from the side of the bio-parents they have to deal with.Poor kid got into panic fits when he heard his bio-mum wanted to take him away.
@captainlezbian @GraniteM Hot Fuzz kinda did that, with the two main leads basically going all life partners with each other. It seems the script originally had a female love interest which was found to be a bit extraneous, so they gave all her dialogue to Danny, making for some very subtext-laden discussions about life and stupid action movies.
@sunsofold @HonoraryMancunian guys, I think this Thanos guy might be some sort of hero!CHANTING Thanos! Thanos! THANOS!
@spittingimage @stoly "have you tried switching yourself off and on again?"
@Buffalox completely discarding multiple sources written by multiple people saying the same thing as evidence because you decide on a whim they don't count is not a reasonable position. They might not be good evidence, but they still are evidence. This always seems to be nothing but a kneejerk reaction to all those Christians claiming the Bible is god-given truth. "Oh no, let's disregard everything written in this amazingly preserved textual corpus because I want to hurt those meanies"
@Buffalox this discarding of the Bible as a source always sounds like an agenda in itself. Sure, it's mythologized, but it's a corpus of texts written by a multitude of authors corroborating at least some things between them.
@Buffalox @Semjeza technically there is textual evidence of him coming back from the dead. From multiple authors even.It's readily available in every version of the Bible.(Now if that evidence is worth a rats ass is another question altogether)
@MutantTailThing @Soulifix like, yes, but every time I saw someone use a Windows Phone I felt very judgemental
@Elting @Helloooo as far as I know the whole opiate situation is way out if hand in US. At least here in Europe you might have to have your leg sheared off before they prescribe it.
@over_clox @one_old_coder yeah but... this keeps changing over time
