I have the same, always need to double gesture to exit an image...

There's nothing left to blast in ol' Mitch, he's already been running on fumes for way too long.

My GF asked me to come to it ends with us with her. I didn't see any trailer or read anything about it so I assumed it was a romcom or something, boy was I wrong...

The plot was quite gripping though and Blake Lively and the cast were really good in it. I'd definitely recommend watching it but keep in mind that it's a pretty intense movie with lots of dark content in it.

Speaking as a Dutch person, ebikes are a very nice solution for a lot of your shorter trips. I personally don't have one (I mostly take public transport to work and besides that my regular bike suffices) but I can see that ebikes are becoming more and more regular around here. It'd be cool to also see them more abroad in other countries.

As an outsider I honestly just don't get what people see in this idiot. How can you take someone that talk like that seriously? He sounds like a nutter that is promising crazy stuff that would literally mean the end of the USA as we know it.

If he'd get his way with this and the other project 2025 stuff it'd honestly be the end of America I think.

I wonder how the Trump fanboys are going to spin this advantagous decision as if the government is out to get him.

I'm still happy that I went through the effort to delete all my old posts when I left Reddit a while back. I periodically check if they've restored them and luckily it hasn't happened so far. I do miss some of the bigger communities but overall I'm having a good time on Lemmy.

As someone who also struggled with this I'd say that just a simple "hi" will most likely already do. The one person I matched with on a dating platform (my current partner) said I was the only one that just simply said hi instead of trying some cheesy pickup line (or immediately talking about sex).

As mentioned above, I struggled with joining an online dating platform for a long time and when I did it took me a month of active swiping before I finally got a match. I was really nervous but I acted a bit more confident than I was (at first at least, before opening up later during our first date) and we've now been together for over 5 years.

That's what they did in my country when a bunch of the big banks almost keeled over in 2008/2009. They were temporarily (partly) owned by the state and eventually bought back their rights to operate as a separate business when things were going better again.

Alright I'll bite, give me some examples of good shows with multiple layers of storytelling, interesting characters and engaging story telling that were made in the last five years. And as I've said in another comment, I know there's still some good ones out there (The Boys, Gen V, Blue eye samurai, Better call Saul, After life), my point is that it feels like there's less of these while the total amount of shows has only increased over time.

There are still some good shows left but it definitely feels like more of a challenge to find them then before. I haven't watched regular TV shows in ages because most of it is crap nowadays. The last one I can vividly remember watching whenever it came out was Castle and I even quit watching that after 1 or 2 seasons.

There's almost no original story telling in shows anymore, it all just feels the same. The only standout shows I can remember watching last year were Blue eye samurai and the Boys. Everything else is just a bit of a blur.
