The extensive attention to curation, editing, and deleting was the whole point of the manufactured reality being pushed.

Not really. A few years ago Lemmy was primarily based out of the dev's servers, and then like beehaw and hexbear. So you could have struck that claim in like spring of 2023.

They were sort of the original instances that didn't require an application to join. So a lot of communities started there.

But then the reddit API stuff happened and Lemmy exploded, relatively speaking. A whole slew of instances started up, and a whole lot of people entered the picture.

And, uh, the culture of Lemmy changed to say the least.

This was a screenplay he sold to... I think Paramount in like 2006. He wrote barebone scripts so the studios could say they had the rights to something in the works. Paid off his college debt if I remember.

Vance could never be as cool as Sen. Armstrong.

Fuck he isn't even cool enough for the Senate we actually have now.

No, but he LEFT it. It was a note that was LEFT.

But you see, that doesn't let the reader fill in the blanks with their own prejudices! Context ruins the whole point of the game for this loony tunes ass community!

I remember being in a theatre watching Silver Surfer with a friend who was an encyclopedic comic book nerd.

He said it will only get worse from here.

I believe this was shortly after he wrote and then sold a screenplay for I think it was Cloak and Dagger. The industry was in an all out war to buy up all the rights, which meant purely corporate controlled future for comic book movies as indie studios were going to get sued to oblivion for trying.

The people asking questions are often fans lobbing questions they know fit the narrative. Like the tiktoker who streamed immediately and apparently stole merch from the booth: they were a fan and in line.

I legit just smashed a hard boiled egg onto a piece of sourdough bread with some grey poupon, and then saw this.

I agree with most of the comments in this thread, and I'll add: there is zero need to purchase Windows 11.

To tell it to say:

Jerkface’s appeal to empathy and non-endorsement.

People who laughed at and mocked Bushnell are literally crying for Kirk.
