I don’t think blaming someone for having the empathy to notice but lacking the social skills to help is really helping. At least they’re trying.

Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What movie(s) did you watch 10+ times and offered something new with each view?2·3 days agoFixed! Thanks for the hint!
As a 48 year old expecting his first child, I can confirm that you will always look back and think this and I’m certain I will again in the future.
OP, don’t rush to make these decisions even if there is a good chance that you won’t change your mind. There are medicines that are very close (or maybe available now?) that will achieve some of the same benefits without surgery. There might be a smarter choice for you if you take your time with this decision.

Are you suggesting that he’s related to a primate?! Heathen! Blasphemy! Stone him!
Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Avatar (the one with the blue aliens) is such a weird franchise71·4 days agoBut you could do this with every story/movie trope that’s been repeated throughout our species history. The concept of retelling stories in different contexts is itself not new but for sure reason Avatar gets overly criticised for it.
You don’t see the same criticisms for every bank heist movie that all follow the same basic premises as each other. I just did it a bit weird why so many people are against this particular trope. Is it because it tries to deal with our history of oppression and colonisation? I honestly don’t know.
I doubt there are any truly original stories that couldn’t be shown to be a retelling of another. I would even argue that some genres wouldn’t exist if this wasn’t a thing.
Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Connectivity in princess cruiseEnglish1·7 days agoNope, never been and have no intention of going on a cruise. I can’t think of a worse holiday. But I appreciate that everyone has different taste but I still can’t think of anything worse.
Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Connectivity in princess cruiseEnglish52·8 days agoCruises suck. Giant shopping malls and water parks at sea with no escape and oppressive views.

Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Enough Musk Spam@lemmy.world•Goodbye to the Cybertruck - the EU bans Tesla's vehicle en masse for failing to comply with safety regulations29·11 days agoI’m not in the industry and I’m not in the EU, but it was obvious that this ridiculous monstrosity wouldn’t pass the most basic safety regulations in the UK and EU. There are rules about having soft edges for collisions with pedestrians. Tesla completely ignored these despite begging aware of the regulations for the multiple other cars they sell here successfully.

Grimtuck@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Rights groups urge EU to prioritze human rights in this week's EU-China summitEnglish34·15 days agoHave the rights groups ever urged anything other than human rights? Seems a bit redundant. In other news commerce groups urge prioritisation of trade, education groups urge a focus on schools and peace groups urge a reduction in military spending.
No, his face really does look like that

There’s a load of films created after 1946 that follow similar plots. Are they also criticising Israel?

I think it would fall under forgery which is definitely illegal and doesn’t require you to use the ID.
