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.

I’m in the process of abandoning my Reddit account. I abandoned my Twitter a little while before the Muskening and once it became finalized I really didn’t want to go back, but I kind of regret not saving more memes/screenshots so I’m making sure to actually archive things this time.

I don’t want to go back. The fediverse has everything and more; I would like to think that we can keep up this wonderful sense of community here. Meanwhile the toxicity on Reddit has gotten even worse.

It’s like having the opportunity to have an amicable separation from a toxic ex.

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

That’s absolutely amazing, but looking at a pic online it looks exactly like the Droplet from 3BP lmao.
