DONT TOUCH MY PENIS.

or any viral video (that was not recorded by the person themselves, since those are often people trying to be famous)

A bit, yes. BUT I go away for a few months and then return to Lemmy with full force. When I'm active here it feels like an active space, when I'm not active, it feels a lil dead.

So the issue is more about the way you engage with the community.

Also I think Lemmy data is available. Posts per month, users etc.

This has me thinking of Marnus Labuschagne

Everything has always been derivative of smth. We all stand on the shoulders of those before us.

Having said that, the Dennis Villeneuve dune does not overrely on previous adaptations like the lynch dune.

But guess what, plot comes from the book, themes come from the book. That is just being loyal to the source material since the medium in which the story is now being told is different.

As a whole the film has enough soul and individuality to stand out. You wouldn't watch it and think, ah a vague action movie with Arab inspired music.

Film is also a collaborative medium, one man doesn't decide what it is, many have influenced it and hence influences have come in from all over the place.

But Dennis Villeneuve as a director has left his imprint on this movie. If you've seen 2 or 3 of his movies you can watch dune without knowing he made it, you can guess it was him.

The way he works with light and dialogue specifically is individual enough for dune to be a unique movie.

(The general idea of an auteur in cinema is what I'm talking about)

I like Zizeks idea of love being a violent event. Check the yt video by Julian de madeiros which should explain the idea.

You could also read/ listen to zizek talk about it

Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan.

The Pakistani division of Taliban.

My bad, I should've given the context originally.

Well in Pakistan, the reason was the ttp primarily (amongst other political reasons).

But Pakistan is in a very unique position, different to any other.

Those allegations began after Anthony Rapp alleged that Spacey, while appearing intoxicated, made a sexual advance toward him at a party in 1986, when Rapp was 14 (so it was pedophilia after all) and Spacey was 27. Rapp had also shared this story in a 2001 interview with The Advocate, but Spacey's name was redacted from publication to avoid legal disputes and public outing.

Spacey stated on Twitter that he did not remember the encounter, but that he owed Rapp "the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior" if he had behaved as asserted.

On September 9, 2020, Rapp sued Spacey for sexual assault, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress under the Child Victims Act.

In the subsequent federal civil court proceeding, a jury found that Spacey did not molest Rapp and was found not liable on all counts, with Rapp subsequently ordered by the court to pay Spacey $39,089 for the costs of litigation.

Fifteen others then came forward alleging similar abuse, including Boston anchorwoman Heather Unruh, who alleged that Spacey sexually assaulted her son; filmmaker Tony Montana; actor Roberto Cavazos; Richard Dreyfuss' son Harry; and eight people who worked on House of Cards. The Guardian was contacted by "a number of people" who alleged that Spacey "groped and behaved in an inappropriate way with young men" as artistic director of The Old Vic theatre.

Jesus fucking Christ this is bleak.

 

With the war in Pakistan i had to download reddit, insta and twitter to keep up.

I genuinely despise them so much and going back to non lemmy social media after so long just reminds me of how fucking grateful I am that Lemmy exists.

Bluesky is fine simply bc there is noone there. The people who post moved but the masses didn't.

LinkedIn in lunatics.

Reddit is probably the one ive ended up gating more than any other despite it being the one I could bear pre Lemmy.

Twitter I haven't used much anyways. But feels horrible with the limited use.

Insta is all thirst traps somehow.

 

I can absolutely assure that there are violations. My friend in Peshawar has himself made a video that he sent me of drones in the air. In Peshawar my friend and his neighbours are on the roofs with guns ready to shoot stuff down.

Similarly a friend in Bahawalpur has told me of his friend seeing drones. This one is friend of a friend so I can't personally 100% claim this is true.

For anyone from India have you or someone you DIRECTLY know seen anything there. I see the same reports in India but my friend in Amritsar says he hasn't heard anything from anyone in the city, only the news. Please let us know if its from someone you personally know or you yourself have seen it.

 

So much is happening here. So much. Attacks going out of pak for an hour and a half.

India had sent in even more unprovoked missiles right before this. Pak intercepted those and then sent back their attack.

BIG ATTACK. More than 20 targets already.

 
 

Schools closed over how bad the pollution is. Happens every year. Its such a thick layer of smog and breathing feels disgusting.
