I love Tubi. I like to write film reviews, and I use them to broaden my style. They also help me learn about the technical side of film. It’s easy for me to engage with the themes and tone of a film, but the craft of it is what elides me, so it’s been really fun getting to know that side of it through casual study.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When I hear of bailout money being used by CEOs to give themselves bonuses, couldn't the government buy the debt and make sure the money is spent the right way?
1·1 day agoI watched The Big Short for the Nth time, but I guess I was talking in general about the U.S.

4·2 days agoAren’t government employees sometimes placed as overseers in certain types of settlements against corporations?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the greatest city on earth, and why?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would it be hypocritical to cancel ‘cancel culture’?
1·4 days agoSo you’re anti-cancel culture as a term?

1·5 days agoCan you use a more clear example? I don’t know exactly what you mean, and I feel this conversation needs me to know exactly what you mean.

2·5 days agoDo you not appreciate the power of the disgruntled and slighted consumer to be able to affect change with their voice? This is a sincere and genuine question. What exactly would a world with no boycotts look like? Probably the biblical Egypt or U.S. during slavery.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you recognize this music box melody?
2·8 days agoOh, yeah. I definitely didn’t think the music box was inspired by my song. Lol I’m glad you solved it though. Funnily enough, the melody, if it’s the right one, was my favorite music box jingle growing up. I had a little one with a dog’s face. The eyes would love left and right, and it had a very satisfying click when you wound it up.

This is a classic Punta song popularized by a Hondureño band, Banda Blanca. It’s sung in both Spanish and the Indigenous language of Garifuna

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I go about finding the right instance for my alt?
1·9 days agoYeah, I guess that would be it. Music, anime, television. Maybe some random hobby stuff.
I would suggest you ask the campus for permission to set up a gaming table. Do the same at other locations that will allow it. As someone else implies, organizing is a separate thing from advertising it. It takes real footwork to even get one person in.
Don’t be discouraged. Keep at it. If you really care about this, just stay consistent. Nothing is guaranteed, but that rings more true the earlier you cut it off.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it okay to have more than one account on here?
1·11 days agoYeah, the whole concept of this place feels pretty Punk or anarchist. I just wanted to ask first and see if my assumption about multiple account was right.


Is that what it’s supposed to be? I know nothing of this topic.
