People of Lemmy who have either "reinvented themselves" or gone through a mid/quarter-life crisis, where did you start off and where did you end up? in c/[email protected]

Hey, I just want to say thanks for posting this. I'm just a random internet stranger, but I'm happy for you. I think Fred Rogers sums it up best, he is the epitome of kindness to me.

It's you I like,

It's not the things you wear,

It's not the way you do your hair

But it's you I like

The way you are right now,

The way down deep inside you

Not the things that hide you,

Not your toys

They're just beside you.

But it's you I like

Every part of you.

Your skin, your eyes, your feelings

Whether old or new.

I hope that you'll remember

Even when you're feeling blue

That it's you I like,

It's you yourself

It's you.

It's you I like.

Where can we donate? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I don't see anywhere to donate at this time, I'd like to throw five bucks at the project every now and again. GitHub Sponsors may be an option, but there's a wait list it looks like. A lot of third party clients don't have a way to donate yet, which is unfortunate.

Buy into your home instance instead by setting up a recurring monthly donation. It's doesn't have to be a lot, some have tiers as low as $1. Alternatively, you could donate to the Lemmy dev team, or some of the devs that are creating these spiffy apps we're using on our phones.

I'd also like to know, it looks pretty slick.

Gotta love the uBlock Origin extension on Firefox Android!

lemm.ee has always been solid for me. At this point, I'm debating whether to just make it my primary instance instead.

I'm heavily considering buying a set of them on eBay. I should probably sleep on it first.

Back when I was a poor kid, our fancy cups were collectable Disney glasses from Burger King.

Watch Party: Hot Fuzz (2007) - 07/12 01:00 UTC (m.media-amazon.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1343259

Let's watch Hot Fuzz together! If you don't have a copy, I will be streaming it on the official Discord server as well. The live thread will be created 30-60 minutes prior to show time, hope to see you there!

Tip: Sort posts and comments by new to stay up to date on announcements and the conversation in the live thread.

Overview:

As a former London constable, Nicholas Angel finds it difficult to adapt to his new assignment in the sleepy British village of Sandford. Not only does he miss the excitement of the big city, but he also has a well-meaning oaf for a partner. However, when a series of grisly accidents rocks Sandford, Angel smells something rotten in the idyllic village.

[Self Promo] Watch Party - A Community for Lemmy to Watch and Discuss Movies Together! (lemmy.world)
 

I came up with the idea for this community in the shower. What if I want to watch a movie with people from all over the world, and talk about it in a live thread? Live threads for sporting events and TV shows are pretty common, but I don't think I've seen it applied to movies before. The concepts are simple:

  1. Create an announcement post 2-12 hours before you want to host a watch party. This gives people time to find a copy of the movie, if they're interested in participating. If you have the means, you can also mention that you'll be streaming the movie on the official Discord server for those that don't have access to the movie.

  2. Create the live thread 30-60 minutes before the watch party starts. If you're going to be streaming on Discord, be sure to include the link to the server invite as well for anyone that wants to join in at the last minute.

  3. At the designated time, everyone presses play, and discusses the movie in the live thread.

Live threads for sporting events and TV shows are pretty common, but I don't think I've seen it applied to movies before. The concepts are simple:

  1. Create an announcement post 6-12 hours before you want to host a watch party. This gives people time to find a copy of the movie, if they're interested in participating. If you have the means, you can also mention that you'll be streaming the movie on the Discord server for those that don't have access to the movie.

  2. Create the live thread an hour before the watch party starts. If you're going to be streaming on Discord, be sure to include the link to the server invite as well for anyone that wants to join in at the last minute.

  3. At the designated time, everyone presses play, and discusses the movie in the live thread.
