So you say it’s irrelevant who saved who, in a conversation directly related to somebody stopping a shooter, then sarcastically call Islam a religion of peace when saying the shooters were Muslim “yet again”, then accuse me of banning people which I don’t do? What are you on about? You need to get your head checked mate.
- Comment on Breaking: NSW Police responding to reports of shooter at Bondi Beach 2 weeks ago:
Too cowardly to just openly say what you’re trying to imply? You’re already very openly bigoted, just explain the contradiction you’re trying to point to.
- Comment on Breaking: NSW Police responding to reports of shooter at Bondi Beach 2 weeks ago:
Explain the contradiction.

I was just making a joke about how common school shootings tragically are ✌️

Isn’t that just graduating?
- Comment on There exist people who will go through the effort of leaving their home, traveling to a movie theatre, paying for a ticket, and sitting for 2-3 hours for a movie they claim "nobody wants to see" 2 weeks ago:
Can I get the award first and then the block pls?

If somebody said “laughs are on them”, you’re telling me you simply can’t understand what the sentiment that person is trying to get across is?
Of course not; you clearly know what the phrase would be for native English speakers - well done - but I just don’t find much value in nitpicking easily ignored syntax or grammar issues honestly.

Do you reckon they might have been trying to spell another word? Gosh, but what word could it possibly be?? If only we could have ANY clues at all!!!

- Comment on In the future, there will be a sad scene of widow watching AI porn of their dead spouse 5 weeks ago:
Certainly not in any big budget mainstream movie there won’t be, because the LLMs used to generate script prompts for the LLMs used to generate visuals and audios wouldn’t understand why a human using an AI to fake a human interaction because they’re soul-crushingly lonely would be sad.
Honestly, it might even be generated as a “happy” scene, to show a “normal” life in the future as product placement for the AI companies as they try to exploit fomo to dig their way out of their inevitable fifty trillion dollar income deficits
Wow, I’m genuinely not excited for or interested in the future at all. Oh.

…what? Didn’t this store come out like over a decade ago? How has this only just been implemented lol
- Comment on EA Announces No F1 26 Next Year, F1 25 Will Get a Major Expansion Instead 1 month ago:
I wonder if they’ve figured out that because they just release essentially the same game every year (for this franchise and other sports franchises like FIFA) with different content, it’ll be cheaper for them to just basically sell a patch?
Just read the article to confirm - yup, it’s a paid “expansion”. God, that’s so funny.
- Comment on Meta wins monopoly trial, convinces judge that social networking is dead 1 month ago:
The judge is currently facing articles of impeachment, just in case anybody was wondering if he was up for sale or not.
Interesting that the idea social media is dead comes from people preferring to interact with strangers’ content than with their actual friends, combined with people actually posting less personal stuff themselves. I didn’t realise that was a thing! Very weird.

Ubisoft? The sex crimes company? Huh, didn’t know they published games. Thought they mostly did sexual harassment tbh.

I can’t be the only person to find it a bit mental that police have grenades, right?
- Comment on What's the name of this 80s song sang by a solo female singer? I only remember her saying "nothing really maaaa-tters" or "nothing truly maaaatt-ers". Has a vibe like I Feel For You by Chaka Kahn 1 month ago:
Why even bother spamming this comment section with a lazy copy/paste like this? You don’t got no brain to think for yourself or something man?
- Comment on People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead? 1 month ago:
I usually choose to have a podcast or music on, but sometimes it’s really nice to just appreciate my surroundings. I like to hear birdsong, or the wind, the rain. Even cars passing. It’s nice to be grounded in the world.
Even when I have music, I spend most of my time when I walk (which is a lot) not looking down at the ground. I look around, and I try to appreciate the little things. The other day, I noticed a really, really polished front door on a house I was walking past. The wood was so bright red and all of the metal was this gleaming silver, it was really striking! There are wild parakeets in the city I live in, so getting the chance to see these beautiful green birds swoop overhead is a treat, too. Where I live is quite hilly, so getting to see what I think are beautiful views of the urban sprawl interspersed with big tree plumages in the green spaces is pleasant, too. Sometimes it’s quite imposing, it’s not always a pretty and cheery sight, but it’s always beautiful.
When I don’t have music or podcasts playing, I feel like I can appreciate those sights a bit more. Picking up on snippets of other people’s lives is interesting, and I find my mood is easier regulated when I just ground myself in the world around me rather than disappearing up into my head with the podcast or music playing. If I have sound on that I focus on, I’ll often not really remember my walking to and from work, but if I’m just experiencing the world, I’ll usually find something memorable. I find that slowing down and taking the time away from tech has been nice for me, sometimes.
- Comment on Aliens Probably Exist - But They’re Staying Silent For a Reason 1 month ago:
I think they are talking but their voices are actually just too high for us to hear. This is why some dogs can be so skittish at times, because they can hear the aliens saying really mean things about us behind our backs

- Comment on GTA 6 dev Rockstar says recent firings were due to leaks of "confidential information" and were "in no way related to people's right to join a union" 1 month ago:
Hmm, notorious bastard company obviously fires a bunch of employees for wanting to unionise to protect themselves from notorious bastard management, gets backlash, and then says “no, they were actually a bunch of very naughty employees! if you’re not a naughty employee, you’ve got nothing to fear” yeah fuckin right

- Comment on Are bots on lemmy? 1 month ago:
Yeah, we definitely have bots. Robofuckers can’t keep their grubby little fingers off the rest of us humans. There’s also a lot of people who generate AI imagery and spam it everywhere. It’s pretty disgusting, but that’s just the modern internet. 🤷♂️

Oh yeah you can hardly go outside with being bombarded by adverts for condoms. It’s everywhere. Being pushed on us by the news all the time, by our bosses in the workplace. Just CONDOMS CONDOMS CONDOMS. The New Google Pixel, now with Condoms! Every advert, even ones not about condoms, have condoms in it. Every company now describes themselves as condom-driven. Absolutely inescapable!
