Buy your tickets now so they don't sell out.

I'm actually confused about this. I see some articles claiming they are doing a star wars theater marathon of all 9 Skywalker saga films, but I don't see any theaters participating in that.

I did find tickets for the Phantom Menace on the 3rd.

I just want forums to chat about current events, argue about stupid fandoms, and bicker with internet trolls. Reddit used to be that, and I had hopes for Lemmy, but everything here is choked to death by over moderation that has nothing to do with keeping healthy communities. It's just thinly veiled echo chambers that don't want to admit what their community is about.

This is coming off a ban over disagreeing with vegans calling dietary disagreements the same as racism. The dude literally said different species were similar to humans having different races. I called that 1800s slave owning theory racism if I've ever seen it lmao.

I know people dont care for internet drama, I just wanted to rant. The internet of tomorrow fucking sucks.

Lmao, I reported genocidal comments in r/worldnews and was site banned for the same reason.

I had 4 reports total, 2 were acted on and the other 2 were pretty blatant calls to violence.

It's actually what made me quit Reddit.

Imagine living your life letting reddit be your filter for meaningful experience lmao.

Touch grass guy.

Having limited access to a resource to then hook you on microtransactions is from mobile game design. It's literally a freemium mechanic being put into an already upscaled price game.

It's one of the most abusive and addictive ways to develop a game, and you want to portray that positively.

I fucking hate gamers. We've been having this conversation since the horse Armor DLC for Oblivion yet here we fucking are.

I dont follow speed runners. I know there is a corner hop hack to skip most of the game in Zelda: OoT. Is it common across other speed runs, or is this a reference to that specific bug?

Biden wasn't involved in the Afghanistan pullout, actually. That was definitively Trump.

They let Mods use mod profiles to spread misinformation in this sub?

Wow.

Edit:

Moving the relevant bits from Wikipedia above the debate so people will have a frame of reference.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020%E2%80%932021_U.S._troop_withdrawal_from_Afghanistan

The United States Armed Forces completed their withdrawal from Afghanistan on 30 August 2021, marking the end of the 2001–2021 war. In February 2020, the Trump administration and the Taliban signed the United States–Taliban deal in Doha, Qatar,[7] which stipulated fighting restrictions for both the US and the Taliban, and provided for the withdrawal of all NATO forces from Afghanistan in return for the Taliban's counter-terrorism commitments. The deal, and then the Biden administration's final decision in April 2021 to pull out all US troops by September 2021 without leaving a residual force, were the two critical events that triggered the start of the collapse of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF).[8

Made himself look like a fool who cares more about politics than the death of his son to me.

I'd give him a break due to his grieving, but honestly, it's pathetic that he would let his love for his son be manipulated for political points.

He was literally trying to use his son's death to help the man who gave the orders that got his son killed.

I dont understand what his protest was for. I'm sure there is extreme emotional duress from losing a child that recently, but what was the goal or message here?

What is the intentional meaning of Scott Pilgrim besides being an awkward teen brained romance plot?

He went down and tried to separate the girls in their sleep while putting his hands on them.

One girl describes how unsafe she felt for her drugged friends when he was trying to separate them.

Imagine that, buying cheap sludge from a waste plant in an unregulated capitalist state had negative outcomes?

Wow!

Republicans are terrorist traitors and should be treated as such.
