The Best Films of Our Time

The more tortuous the better, please.
I’ll post some examples in the comments as “inspiration”

The Empire acts in our best interests, and tries to prevent run-ins with these unseemly types. Perhaps you can help, with your best memes celebrating the bounty hunters who pursue them, or the Hutts who imprison them. Or maybe just find ways to highlight what scumbags Han Solo, Hondo Ohnaka and their ilk really are.

Thank you for your service.

I heard from an Aboriginal tour guide that in native populations everyone just did the role they wanted / were good at, and it was only from the introduction of Christian missionaries that such a division of labour was encouraged.

"Okay everyone find a partner" are the words I least want to hear at these kind of things

I like the idea that these reviewers all had the concept for a perfect Barbie movie, and are then criticising this one for not living up to it.

I think that - like most people - when I heard that Gerwig was making a movie out of Barbie, I thought: how the hell is she going to do that?

This is great work. I assume LMAO was the same guy as Angled - it'll be an 1.7K communities nixed if the script is used for him (so, 19% of the total!)

(Yeah, that'll show 'em)

Right now there are people who sign up with an instance like lemmy.world, who then create loads of communities, because they don't fully understand the nature of things and can't quite believe that the URLs for lots of different IPs are available. For Reddit, if you snagged the likes of r/starwars early on, that gave you some power. For Lemmy, it's meaningless: if you just want to moderate 100 communities, and not spend time actually building a Community up, then you'll just be overtaken by the Community at one of the many other instances.

God, no. That thing with the submersible shows we can't even explore our own ocean without exploding.

A bot-driven site, providing a daily list of Communities trending across the LemmyVerse, determined by growth in subscribers.

Some people have already discovered it (meaning it's currently featuring on its own list!), but I always intended to post on here once the bot had been running for a few days. Now that it has, it can average daily growth over the previous days, to better highlight consistent growth (vs. a random spurt in popularity).

It's early days, but I think it's already illustrating some interesting things: e.g. the popularity of table-top RPGs on Lemmy, the kick that "Accidental Renaissance" got from Reddit migrants, or how the sudden investment in "Antiques Memes Roadshow" threatened to break the "All" feed. There's also appearances from Communities that featured here, so it'll be intriguing to see if the likes of "Deal Malls" can stay on the list (tune in tomorrow to find out ...).

There's also a "NSFW" version (see the link in the sidebar), and a post to discuss suggestions for improving the algorithm and how the results are displayed.

Every year, there are actors who had roles in Return of the Jedi, who get letters informing that although their contact entitles them to money that film's net profit, sadly Return of the Jedi hasn't made any profit yet!

Block by user: the bot at lemmit online is the main offender.

For any weird, bigoted stuff, lots of downvotes and no replies is hopefully the message an OP needs to receive to get the hint that they should by plying their recruitment attempts elsewhere. Engaging them is probably the worst thing to do.

I've had to remember that there's automatic hiding though, and do that manually.

I'm still transferring stuff between my phone and computer using FTP, like some caveman.

That's the look of a woman who's going to take that thing with her to the bath.
