Some fun stuff there.
The Golden Child is one I might rewatch. It’s been a while but I remember something about people eating bloody oatmeal and falling under a trance, like in The Temple of Doom.
The last time I watched FireWalker was decades ago so all I can say is I remember younger me liking it.
Romancing the Stone is one of the more well known and higher quality movies of this bunch.
Is your VPN exit node in the UK? Both .zip instances have them geoblocked to avoid issues with the new laws there.
Let’s not forget his high achievement of winning a Golden Razzie award for his terrible performance as….himself. Yes, he achieved worst supporting actor playing himself. Not only that the movie is a perverted B- dumpster fire.
Just to be clear, I’m not saying this is anywhere near as serious compared to the points you’ve made. Those are truly harmful things done to others. To know he was in such a low ranked movie and had the worst performance of everyone in it while trying to portray himself brings a bit of joy.
I’m perfectly calm Dude. Calmer than you are.
This hasn’t happened to me but I can imagine the frustration. Maybe an option to hide buttons on scroll could help with preventing the accidental press.
What the hell does he know about real life and disadvantages? I’ll be without them for life. At least anything Meta or the like have a hand in. Poor me. 😄
I appreciate the information! Sure this is a movies community but given the subject matter your post seems solid addition to the topic.
Slazer2au has the answer. Unless you switch to a PieFed account then you won’t see them because saved posts in Voyager aren’t working in app for that platform yet.
You will see them in browser but the app is still an early work in progress for PieFed accounts.
Piss off Republicans. The messages aren’t getting deleted. If someone wants to read them they still can. I don’t want to see your bullshit messages on my phone.
Apple is giving us an option to ignore them easily. No one should have these forced upon them.
Happy birthday Muffin! 🍰🎉
Sounds like her new treats were an excellent present.
May North Korea (or anyone really) steal every bit of it. They pulled off the largest single bitcoin heist so far earlier this year. How difficult could this bozo’s crypto be for them?
With all the price hikes because of pointless tariffs it’s not doable to pay taxes to the government.
Scientologists made the decision without permission from Isaac Hayes. Not surprising knowing how they operate but damn.
Getting to your dad’s departure from the show, what was his reaction to “Trapped in the Closet?”
So, initially, the episode came out in November, and there was no reaction. There wasn’t any upswell about that episode at all. It really wasn’t a big deal at the time. That January, in 2006, my dad had a stroke, and during the course of his recovery, I think that March, they re-aired the episode. When it re-aired, that’s when Scientology got upset.
At that time, my father was recovering from a stroke — literally learning how to talk, learning how to function. I visited my father. He was really struggling sometimes to even speak and say words. At the time, the people that were around him were largely Scientologists — his publicists and management. Those decisions about his involvement in the show, his leaving the show, were made by those people and not him. He would have never quit that show. He loved that show, and he was making a lot of money doing that show. So, I take issue with the way those decisions were made on his behalf because it put him in a position to actually have to go on the road and tour before he was ready to tour.
Carnivàle. I think it took a few years more for mainstream viewers to get into dark fantasy/supernatural sci-fi.
The show is out there but I really hoped to see a better conclusion than what we got before it was cancelled.
Even though LemmyNSFW is outside of the UK the admins of any instance will be responsible for verification of UK users because of this law. This is why .zip (Lemmy and PieFed) have geoblocked the UK. It’s a lot of work and responsibility to take on.
Here’s the post from Demigodrick explaining this situation better than I can.
Department Q sounds interesting. I haven’t read the books but will give this one a try.
I’m bummed too. This was about to be one of my favorite animals. Pangolins are still cool though. :)
Decent! :)
If you enjoy the Jail series, season 2 will be out at some point this summer and they’re currently filming TPB season 13 now.
There’s also this article from TechCrunch.
Grok 4 seems to consult Elon Musk to answer controversial questions
They tried it out themselves and have reports from other users as well.
Ah, ok. It’s been a long time since seeing any of these except The Goonies.
Big Trouble in Little China is a classic. I just might hold my own 80’s adventure movie week.
