Comedy is the way to go: "Mashle: Magic and Muscles". it's a send up of Harry Potter and very entertaining.

Sometimes it's useful to do a hard reset and go back to original source materials.

Here's a classic example of what I mean:

You may know it as an anime but 40 years ago it was also an actual movie. All the things you know & love in anime are there: high school, the uniforms, the traditions, etc..

I like this film because it shows how real this stuff used to be not even that long ago.

I'm not scoffing either. We both agree that your Inidividualism is precisely the way you need to go, but like the meme says, "we are not the same".

@Based_Accelerationist

Like I said, we are entirely distinct circles in the venn diagram. We learn absolutely nothing from each other.

The only difference being that I used occupy the same circle you do, and I'm acutely aware of the impossibility of mere words having the power to change.

Live the Schopenhaur/Nietzschian dream. It's a deterministic, goal-less universe but don't let that stop you forging your own telos.

@sardonicsmile

I've always liked Russian composers, especially Shostakovich. Check out his fugue in C Major, it's a real beauty.

Tchaikovksy not so much though.

@Stahesh

Read the comments, pure gold.

@basedbagel

Definitely. Those guys are doing everyone a solid service.

In FDroid, you can add the newpipe repo so that you get new versions quicker.

@basedbagel

NewPipe is seriously good though. The playlists feature is a godsend. And you can export it all and import into invidious.

@basedbagel

I've been using those for so long I get surprised on the odd occasion when i watch an actual YT video at how shitty the experience is.

I post YT links here though because sometimes the instances go down as you say.

I think there are settings in Mastodon where you define default alternatives for all social media - nitter, teddit, invidious/piped - and it converts links on the fly to use those instead.

AMR would have to set that up though.

Dwarves still drink for free. It's a win-win for everyone.

Lessons from the Masters

@YoMomz @RoninGrey

I'd open a bar called "The Adventurers Arms" and let dwarves drink for free.

@YoMomz @RoninGrey

Just imagine how legendary bar fights would get if we brought back suits of armor.
