If you try to access one of the blocked communities from lemmy.world you'll see it's blocked, dude

lemmy.world rule 1:

No illegal content, including sharing copyrighted material

c/[email protected] rule 3:

Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles

So c/[email protected] doesn't even break that rule. It's for discussion. Unless you take a very broad reading of not allowing the sharing of resources that could be used to pirate copyrighted material, but that's not an issue anywhere else

Maybe you shouldn’t even have had your account on the largest server to begin with?

Some of us made our accounts on lemmy.world within a week(?) of its creation when it was tiny (June 5 for me). Doesn't stop it from belonging on mildly infuriating

If you're going to break it down that far, why stop? Your "self" is not your central nervous system, but a portion of it - and not a very large one. It's your consciousness. Most of what your nervous system does is not conscious.

Your self (and mine) are but a small portion of a single organ in a large network of organs and tissues and cells and bacteria. We developed because it was advantageous for our bodies - which predate our consciousness - to have pilots. We are periphery. We are a single part of an ecosystem. And definitely not the center of it

Thank you for the detailed explanation!

How is this fire related to climate change? Genuine question because I don't understand the connection

If everyone were a gardener no one would need a warrior

He forgot to mention that the theory is that it happened on accident. Thus he fell forward, causing him to misfire

Seriously what are the stories on those? Surely they were submitted by children or something?

I could tolerate almost every redditism if it weren't for the belittling, argumentative, and self-righteous tones that permeated every front page discussion

Change your sort options. Your lemmy experience will change drastically depending on whether you're sorting by hot, active, top, etc.

At least lemmy has lots of mirrored communities so if one starts to suck you can go to a smaller one with the same topic

Yes! I struggle to motivate myself to stick with hobbies. I love photography, making art, writing - but often the motivation is just lacking. But cooking? I'm biologically motivated to cook (most days) so it's easy to keep up with. All I have to do is save recipes and plan ahead just a little

Yeah talk about a depressing thought

Absolutely agree, got a big crush on Cap so I like to imagine he's too tuned into the purest version of the 🇺🇸American spirit🇺🇸 to hate. But it is funny to suspend that and think about what if he was just a grumpy old man

No doubt there were plenty of gay men back then but were they widely accepted?

hell yeah

That's the easiest way to make complex villains, give them a relatable goal with terrible means. Activates the good old "do the ends justify the means" question and tempts the audience. The best superhero movies give the hero a strong moral backbone to "save" the audience and find the truth between the two. Look at how Black Panther learns from Killmonger's criticism but does it without war and hatred

Edit: Also The Batman is pretty solid with this aspect. He sees how his quest for revenge encourages violent vigilantism and inspires the incel-like Riddler. Because of this he decides to turn toward hope and helping others instead

And Hitler just wanted to improve the human race /s
