Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

I just saw this tik-tok that proposed that when Carmen hit the asteroid, it sent the asteroid on a new trajectory.

And that was the asteroid that started the war between humanity and the bugs - that the military spun it into a story to get humanity invested in the war.

Now, it's been forever since I've seen the movie, but I vaguely remember the war already going on by the time they were in the academy, so I don't think this could possibly be true, but I love fan theories like this.
