If you look between the seriously struggling Canadian flag and the big circle that says OSU! There's a carefully animated Bad Apple music video. It starts pretty much right away so it should be easy to keep track of

Iirc Stardust does, in fact, have pirates. This chart is lying to you! Airship Pirates are pirates too

tbh, I kinda like it. Feathery dinosaurs are a look I can get used to

Food for thought
I love a good Opinel knife, but isn't the point of the Swiss Army knife that it saves space?

Green Boots - a name given to the unidentified body of a climber that became a landmark on the main Northeast ridge route of Mount Everest.
I just checked the article and can we talk about The Rainbow Valley for a second? It sounds so nice, but it's actually a hole full of corpses in colorful clothing. Why would anyone climb Everest?

Kind of surprised me that stealth bombers showing up as bee sized objects still weren't immediately sus for their speed
Imagine seeing a tiny, fast speck that can easily just be static or a small piece of trash on the wind after days of nothing. You probably wouldn't immediately report it either. And that's assuming you noticed it at all. Bees are very small, especially when you're looking at them with a device meant to detect planes

I love democracy
For the one that looks most right, Gal Gadot is probably the best from this list. For the movie I'm most likely to watch? The Terry Crews version would be worth it even if it sucks

The previous owners of my house used a coffee can as a piece of dryer ductwork
If it worked it then it wasn't stupid. That's the rule

QUESTION What defines dark fantasy?
It's a combination of mood and setting. The mood should be serious and the world should be harsh. Grimdark fantasy is kind of a subcategory where the world is completely hopeless as opposed to just being a bit harsh.
The most famous dark fantasy (or depending on who you ask grimdark) series that I can think of is The Witcher. You probably know a bit about about it but there really are no proper good guys. Just Geralt who at least cares enough to try sometimes
Another pretty well known (but kinda controversial) one is Goblin Slayer. This one has some... interesting ideas about goblins. It does do a decent job of making them a credible threat though and you can understand why the goblin slayer wants to make them extinct. An interesting thing about this one is that the characters don't have actual names. This makes them feel disposable to some extent and adds to the general feel of it

Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes?
After a lot of searching on Rotten Tomatoes, Venom? Fun and kinda goofy suoerhero comedy. I definitely liked it enough to watch the sequel

Best app I've used so far. Why are there so many furry porn communities anyway? They're pretty much my whole blocklist

Now Reddit sell NFT-like stuff
They've been doing it a while. They even gave some free ones away to encourage people to buy more. I actually have some of the free ones because why not. I would never pay for them though

Books from around the world
If you don't mind a somewhat bleak post apocalyptic book, I really liked Metro 2033 by Dmitri Glukhovsky.
There's a game series based on it too, but you asked for books and I haven't played the games

stop asking for a karma system
idk, I say the same stuff regardless. Sometimes people like what I say, sometimes they don't

How many of you are still actively using Reddit?
I never fully stopped using Reddit. I do use it a lot less though. Most of the subs I was there for either slowed down or stopped. One of them only has a single user who's allowed to post now

Liftoff. Lemmy app. Do you like the way it works now?
I tried Liftoff, ran into some login issues, and some other minor annoyances and switched to Connect. So far I'm liking connect
