a fellow Nausicaa appreciator! It’s hard to find people that have even seen it tbh.

the two on the bottom right are very Shadow of the Colossus

what does trump have to do with a crime in Colombia?

ironic considering this shitty doodle was AI generated, counteracting any hypothetical flowers they’re supposedly planting. the original os on the company’s instagram.

The craftsmanship is definitely something to behold, also helps that it looks clean and well maintained compared to any underpass here in the states.

It’s mostly the design of the fucking things, I’m sure they’d be more acceptable of they were at least appealing.

(I’m going to be extremely hypocritical here as I do this with my Amiibo) but the culture or keeping it in the boxes never really made sense to me in regards to Funko. What purpose does it really serve when there’s a lot of Funko that have little to no value boxed or not? Part of me thinks it’s because they’re easier to store in the boxes and because you don’t actively play or use them (like you would with Amiibo.) But what gets me is the # of Funko collectors that open their figures is microscopic compared to the people who have entire walls lined with boxes of the things.

Another brand I see them compared to often is Nendoroids, which are less TV and movie characters and more anime and video game figures. But very few people keep those boxed, because they’re pose-able, therefore more owners purchase them with the intention of displaying them in a variety of poses as opposed to keeping the boxes for anything other than storing the accessories.

Post what you want, comment on everything, make your own community, etc etc etc

I see this all the time like some kind of catch-all for complaints about how effectively dead this platform is.

Not everyone is cutout to pioneer any kind of community, let’s just assume that OP takes this advice to heart, if their interest/hobby is niche enough, what’s even the likelihood of someone else tumbling upon it? Let alone contributing. Maybe this hypothetical other person wants to contribute but they see that it’s only one other person posting anything and they figure, “what’s the point?” Maybe they don’t agree with OP’s opinions and would rather find another “community” where their opinions won’t be contested even if it doesn’t exist. There are a myriad of reasons why, this is going to happen with every channel, fandom, interest group, etc. it’s a natural part of the process. The problem lies in the simple fact that there’s fucking no one here, there are enough bodies to come and stay and go and continue the cycle until a community is established.

Yes, there are plenty of channels or w/e they’re called here, but most of them are effectively islands in a sea of shit you don’t care about (or bots.) They’re not managed, and there’s nothing going on in them. Why is it up to you the user to stop what you’re doing and make something out of nothing? When there are already communities that do exist on other platforms, even if said platforms are trash like Reddit or Xitter are. The majority of users in large communities are lurkers, they might not actively contribute, but they do share content with their own friends or interest groups and that is what’s more likely to bring people in, those people might be people that do end up contributing, or they might be more lurkers. But it feeds into the growth of the community either way.

Most of Lemmy doesn’t have any of that though, because there’s no one here.

especially considering Coca Cola is one of the richest companies on the planet, they could afford literally whatever artist they want, and yet they choose AI slop, because it’s “cheaper.”

it should just be, big button for power on and off, and another button for mode/cycle.

For a single piece sure.

I presume the idea here is that you have access to their full library. Personally, I fail to see why I would change my wallpaper enough to warrant even a free app to change it, let alone 50 bucks.

well no wonder you have to shit, why are you ordering burritos at Taco Bell?

The title is confusing, Bert’s the one that can’t sleep because Ernie is talking.

-Core is the new term for just aesthetics, and I think that’s much more fitting over punk. Though in the case of steampunk, it’s one of the oldest -punks so getting people to swap over to steamcore or something would probably be met with a lot of opposition.

My reaction as well, I’ve only known him through his statue.

Shit writes itself.

I don’t think they know what gluten is.

It’s a 5 dollar game (being generous) that was already overpriced at $6. I get wanting more money, but your product isn’t worth the price increase to begin with.

Batman probably can learn all he needs to about the parents by talking to their children. Anything else about them he probably doesn’t need to be in their presence to learn about. His status as an orphan also probably makes it a lot easier to relate to the kids rather than the parents.
