Ngl, Mastodon is closer to feeling like Lemmy than Twitter. I know it's heresy to say here, but Bluesky is probably the closest feeling to old Twitter, including the random 3am hole pics on "What's Hot" lol. I scroll there, but I don't post bc I find talking on Lemmy a nicer experience tbh.
I also find it interesting that you find IG Reels a better algo for you than Tiktok, because most people say their Reels algo is a MESS. You must have curated your follows and likes pretty well.
This was 🔥
Also to any dudes here: I just want you to know every woman at the l party I was at was going feral for Kendrick's bell bottom jeans. Something to think about.
Mr Beast drama has been a big part of my entertainment as well.
This shit was/is RIDICULOUS. I dropped off of it because life got busy but man...Youtubers were a mistake...
What pop culture communities are you a part of? I would also like to subscribe.
I feel that. I find it funny that the retro gaming communities here are more active than the regular ones lol, unless a big gaming company does something shitty (as they are always doing).
I once thought about making a post about how funny it is that Godzilla, the embodiment of the horrors of nuclear war, and Hatsune Miku are now in a game doing the griddy together. But then I realised I didn't want to get absolutely roasted for playing Fortnite with my friends every now and then.
All the power to you! I think I also like it here for similar reasons as you. I can get a lot of advice and perspectives from people older than me without being called a slur.
For example: I learned about Iran-Contra from someone who was actually living during it and explained to me why exactly it was seen as Carter's failure, when I have the power of hindsight and history and can see how it was clearly manufactured. At no point was I called a bleeding heart or libtard during that explanation, even though the person made it clear they voted for Reagan. It was nice!
Subscribed, thanks! I searched NBA on the global community search and got nothing, I wonder if it just wasn't federated on my instance yet.
I wish I was there losing my mind with the rest of you last week
OP, this is a pop culture reference. Your lemmy account will now be revoked. 🔫 Hand it over
Would you be interested in my 4 000 word thinkpiece on how Kamala Harris' campaign co-opting Charli XCX's Brat Summer is a perfect encapsulation of the how the neoliberal mechanisms in the United States try to use cultural capital to mask their regressive politics? Trump appearing on Joe Rogan, and George Bush's "drinking a beer with the little guy" will also make appearances.
YES LETS GO! Subscribed. That place better be popping off in May.
Hahaha yeah Funko Pop collectors are so weird right hahahaha
