La verità è che la maggior parte degli Italiani sono ossessionati da una qualche altra nazione

@mat_coyg @RealEmirHan Tbh I'm obsessed with commenting random american posts pushed by the algo but who am I kidding, you might very well have a point!

@zioGil @RealEmirHan Looking at your profile it seems you are obsessed with Americans, actually. That actually amazes me. An Italian obsessed with Americans. A modern day Sergio Leone. I wonder if I will ever cease to be amazed.

In Pirates of the Caribbean, Keira Knightley admits her cleavage had to be painted every single day on set. “The best bit was having my breasts painted on.” “I got very little up top so it took 45 minutes to hoist up what I have and then paint in the rest. They looked amazing!”

Non so se sia questa la scrittura automatica di cui parlano gli esoteristi o se mi è solo scattato il pollice

NO...... open 9999909999099 in 😅😅

@BrunoHubacher1 @daniel_dsj2110 Italian more than latin Re: the guy's surname

@daniel_dsj2110 French "doesn't exist" it's latin.

French linguists on the English language

@AlienoGentile C'è anche chi le chiamerebbe "rimuginare" 😁

@paraschopra It's basically the latest entry in the Great Galactic Saga literary meta-genre that goes Foundation->Dune->Star Wars->Hyperion and it's awesome on so many levels

Drop everything and read this #book. Seriously, this sci-fi is leagues apart from any other sci-fi book that I’ve read (except perhaps Ursula’s writings). Immensely imaginative, the book has several interconnected stories, each equally mind blowing. And all those stories come together in a fluid meta-story. Few of the stories were so powerful that I had trouble sleeping as I kept thinking about them. I picked the book after seeing it infinitely recommended on hacker news and it did not disappoint. It’s sad that the author recently passed away, but I’m excited to read rest of the books in the Hyperion series.

@khaaleel0001 @awesomekling I grew up with japanese anime and so did 80% of my generation, most age restrictions are pure lunacy

That movie's rated PG for a reason (intense action/peril), and Common Sense Media usually puts the original around 6+ while the live-action remake edges closer to 8–9+ because the dragons hit harder visually. For a 4year old though? Yeah, that's basically handing them jet fuel for recess energy.

>be uncle >asked to babysit 4yo >he wants to watch a movie >put on "How to Train Your Dragon" >kid's 100% enthralled the whole time >loves the vikings >LOVES the dragons >movie ends, give him back to my sister >ffw next day >sister picks him up from kindergarten >teacher pulls her aside and asks if something happened at home >kid has been yelling about vikings all day and chasing other kids while screaming "I am the Night Fury!!" apparently you're supposed to check the age recommendations for movies 😅

I'm Italian and I love drawing although drawing doesn't like me back yet but working on it promise

@rawmilkhoney Tacky lipstick tho

If women understood what makes them attractive to men they wouldn’t be confused why millions of hearts have been captivated by Alysa Liu. Ultimately all of men’s standards disappear when a girl is fun, cute and pleasant, she is the ultimate feminine form beautifully embodied

@gerassimou2 As an Italian I remember reading HPL at 14 and saying wtf Howard

@churchofysl I'm 48, at 36 she's a kid

when someone tries to fear monger me when i say marriage after 30 but amal clooney built a successful career and then got married at 36

@HMBohemond 1) It's not "comic books", it's american superhero comics 2) They're great because they are experimental. Experiments are messy and are supposed to fail 98% of the times

The problem with comic books is that you can't fix them. They're a fundamentally broken medium, right down to their foundation. Characters who can't grow. Stories that can't change. Plot threads that can never resolve. You could remove the "wokeness" and it still wouldn't change anything. It's time to let them die.

Ho scritto dialoghi per fumetti, teatro, cartoni animati, prosa (duh), cinema (circa) e ora anche videogiochi. Mi mancano solo le soap. Accidenti, ora voglio scrivere dialoghi per le soap. Vabbe', intanto è uscita la demo del gioco, mettetelo in wishlist!

@PJ11819211 Agree about Kaji though I wouldn't see all this "sexual" in NGE unless one is sex-obsessed of course Like, there are sexual scenes but they are not the point. It's like saying the series is about alcohol abuse just because Misato drinks beer

My main take away from the og Eva series was that Kaji is the only well adjusted person, everyone is either a pyschopath or has the most fucked up psycho-sexual issues imaginable.

@bird_actual @HMBohemond They don't think it's hard sci-fi but when debating the topic I often find that the average discourse tends to be "I'm a rational person yay science I love Star Trek muh Star Wars is fantasy not sci-fi"

@HMBohemond I don't know a single Star Trek fan who thinks Star Trek is remotely hard sci-fi, and I'm a pretty hardcore Star Trek fan. Also, yeah, Trek would get it's shit kicked in by a lot of other settings, assuming we're not bringing the Q into this.

I'm gonna be real with you guys, when it comes to power scaling different sci-fi universes no one is more insecure about how weak their setting is overall than Star Trek fans. You're always the ones starting the power scaling arguments, and you're the only ones who think Star Trek stands a chance against anything else. While I'm at it, can we talk about how Star Trek has more space magic bullshit than even Warhammer 40,000 and Star Wars but somehow Star Trek fans are convinced it's "hard scifi?" Warhammer at least couches it in scientific or pseudo-scientific concepts wrapped up in thick layers of superstition and misunderstanding. Stark Trek doesn't even do that. It's just magic.

@HMBohemond Very few people are ready for this conversation but one of the main unspoken differences btw Wars and Trek is that SW takes a bonkers premise to logical consequences wvile ST takes a rational premise and goes bananas with It. No judgement, mind you, I love them both
