Staying with her even though she was abusive. Having kids with her. Then finally getting up the courage to get myself out but not being able to take the kids with me.

Clue. One of Tim Curry’s finest performances. Madeline Kahn’s, too.

It has a 49% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, so about half of people seem to agree with you.

As a stand-alone film, it is probably fine. As an entry in the Ghostbusters franchise, I did not enjoy the film.

Independence Day. Just run away, alien dudes! The xenophobia isn’t worth it!

There’s a subreddit called “Watch it for the plot,” but the plot refers to the woman’s … huge tracts of land.

Woody Allen? Are you on Lemmy now?

Wow. A 30 year old AIDS joke? On my Lemmy?

Technically, this is the summary of the original trilogy, too. He finally calms down at the end of RotJ

That was funnier than it should have been

Wanna buy some NFTs instead? Pleeeeeease?

That’s still over £850/$1090 per month. Nothing to sneeze at.

No, the Belgians.

Did you say Vader is on the other side of that door? I’m gonna hurl.

I think it’s interesting that Prince Harry was allowed to serve on the front lines in Afghanistan. Granted, he was a volunteer and not a conscript, but the fact that the queen even allowed it was surprising. When I heard he was joining up, I expected that he would be in some cushy back office, away from the fighting.

I have a few different accounts. One on lemmy.world, but that’s been down so much, I decided I needed a backup, and quite frankly, the fact that there’s an entire Trek instance made my choice of a backup a no-brainer.

I truly wish I’d known this when I was 21. Got married super young and went through 20 years (4 years of dating, 16 of marriage) of hell.

Seriously, young people. Trust your gut.
