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
Galadriel: And for you, Frodo Baggins, I give you the light of my daughter’s husband’s father
Frodo: So what does that make us?
Galadriel: Absolutely nothing
He forgot to mention that the theory is that it happened on accident. Thus he fell forward, causing him to misfire
Oh hey, the star’s name really is a reference to Tolkien’s Earendil!
And for you, Frodo Baggins, I give you the light of Earendel, our most distant star. May it be a light to you in dark places when all other lights go out.

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
Is there a community for this?
Are you me? Pretty much the same story. Still a lot of nostalgia for that movie.
As I understand it a lot of Godzilla fans mainly hate it because it diverges so much from traditional Godzilla. Which I get but what a lame reason to hate a movie
That scene at Medieval Times when Carrey does that great rendition of the fight music from Star Trek.
It’s always been interesting to me how relevant movies from the 90s and early 2000s make Star Trek seem at that time. Cable Guy and Wayne’s World both come to mind as movies that make multiple, occasionally obscure Trek references. I was born in 96 and watch a fair amount of Trek but it just doesn’t feel as relevant in my generation :/
I always look at it as:
Critics judge craftsmanship. Audiences judge enjoyment.
You would think that wouldn’t you, Margot Robbie?
There wasn’t enough time spent on character backstory! Use your glowing rectangle.
I agree that backstory is non-essential, but are critics criticizing the lack of backstory or the lack of fully fleshed out characters? Because imo one of the reasons the first Suicide Squad was bad was because it didn’t have adequately fleshed out characters. Any movie that relies on outside material to fill in essential blanks is not doing one of the major things a movie is supposed to do: tell a full story with its characters. Or at least it’s not doing it well
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
