Especially with the massive number of bots, it helps get user and activity numbers up a lot

I didn't feel like it got lost because of it, especially since it was all still in service of that message. Feminism isn't just about women either, and isn't the conclusion of his arc showing that he is kenough and doesn't need to to take the patriarchal male role?

Saw it yesterday and I really liked it. I think some people are kind of exaggerating how groundbreaking and subversive the feminism in it is, while it strikes me as fairly standard liberal feminism, but I think it was executed about as well as it could have been and I only cringed one or two times. Besides that it was consistently funny, occasionally moving, the plot was compelling enough, and it was all round a fun time. Also bonus points for having a Charli XCX song over a car chase.

I guess probably my biggest gripe would just be that the capitalism aspect of things was approached in a really shallow manner (maybe or maybe not Mattel's influence going on there idk), such that tbh I almost would have preferred it not touched at all, but this didn't hugely affect my enjoyment of the movie either because I wasn't expecting it to really go deep into that.

The job is not at all half finished. There is a massive difference between taking back territory Russia strategically chose to withdraw from following their failure to advance further and taking back territory they have claimed as an integral part of their nation and will fight tooth and nail to defend.

very secure in their masculinity

Are they?

I know this is a mobile app so people can generally pretty easily put in regular emojis, but Lemmy allows for instances to have custom emojis and I know of at least a few that do. So, having an emoji picker to let people make use of those seems like a good idea.

Also, said custom emojis currently embed the same way as regular images, such that in comments where they are used in-line, it can break up the text in a way that both looks bad and can make things harder to read:

I'm not 100% sure if there's a way to fix the second one since the custom emojis are at the end of the day just images afaik, but if so that would be nice.

Diamond is kind of a boring gem anyway imo, I’d prefer something with more colour

I think people just kinda like to personify things, it happens all the time even with things that aren’t even close to human

Some apps show it but tbh I think it’s a good thing Lemmy generally doesn’t

The reason as to why here relative to elsewhere is probably because people here tend to be more into free software and privacy and things like that, and caring about those things tends to have an anti-corporate aspect, because of the way corporations tend to act, and aligns pretty well with wider anticapitalist beliefs

Also the devs and pre-Reddit influx population are anticapitalist so that kind of helps influence the trajectory a bit

Trying to, although with the time difference and with my schedule I probably won't be able to catch that many especially in the earlier stages

Instagram post has a couple more bits but I figured I'd make the main post link to the Tiktok because I couldn't find an alternative frontend for Instagram (although if anyone knows of one definitely let me know and I can edit it).
