I'm gonna hope you mean stuff like Ghost in the Shell and 20th Century Boys and not .... the other kind of manga.

Hire an orchestra? I'm sorry, the truest and purest form of music is to spend 2-3 decades mastering an instrument and make it with your own two hands.

I mean, when Thomas Paine wrote "What if the British colonies declared independence haha" it was supposed to be a trolly 4chan post, like NO WAY they were actually gonna beat the World's greatest military force in the 18th century ... unless?

Everyone is saying Piracy but I say Public LIbraries, which often have CDs/DVDs/BDs/games now (depending on your locale). They're taxpayer funded, so you might as well get your money's worth, and they keep track of how often stuff gets borrowed which determines future financial support.

(And if you are tech-savvy enough to be on Lemmy, you probably know how to make a ... permanent copy ... for yourself to keep)

No, no, letting the VP pick any successor makes it too easy for them to game the system! We should come up with a completely objective, impartial method.

The oldest child of the current President becomes the next President.

At this point I'm not sure there's enough human left in him to die.

Well, clearly Jesus is the actual false prophet, because a long-haired dark-skinned Middle Eastern socialist who got executed as a criminal sounds like a LOSER.

So the Circle of Life is really just the Ouroboros of Capitalism...

Hm.

The people who are still pissy over at reddit don’t actually want to leave unless they’re presented with a reddit clone that has both a fully developed app and a huge userbase.

I lurk the frontpage occasionally and I've already noticed the Reddit atmosphere has gotten ... weird.

Little-known, content-churning subreddits are bubbling to the top because of all the other blackouts and desertions. Fringe viewpoints and wacko opinions that would normally get downvoted to the bottom of a thread are now out in the open because there's no voice of reason to hold them back.

And the kind of people that are still on there, acting as if everything is fine (or, God forbid, better(???) than it was before the revolts) ... it's a very strange place now.
