This gives me all sorts of nostalgia for when I first found reddit. That was like twelve years ago.

And it's fucking awesome. I really have been enjoying this here Lemmy life around pirates and opossums.

[–] SpaceNoodle 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I've got some bad news for you re: pirates

[–] deus 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you mean the lemmy.world defederation that's hardly bad news. The community is still there, you just need another account in another instance to see it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Also maybe a pirate community is better off sailing away on the high seas than being in the thick of some lemmy drama?

That said, isn't it the most subbed community 😁?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel at home here, no hard border in sight and lots of really good persons.

Also I hadn't seen even a small flame war since like 2018 or something!

🤤☺️

[–] CertifiedBlackGuy 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Flame war, you say?

cracks knuckles

Episodes 1 and 2 were better than 4 and 5.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pffft amateur.....

Jar Jar Binks was a great character.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

jarjar

Damn straight, he was.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy yes.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

opossums are our friends

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Fuck yeah opossums. Opossums are like goblins or gremlins except real. I had one on the fence the other night, I wish I'd been fast enough to get a video of it tripping and almost falling off the fence.

Just how many 303 and 720 are on here?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this comment made the green chile fall out of my gluten free breakfast burrito

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Friendly faces everywhere. People shouting, "Howdy, neighbor!"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can see the people’s republic of Boulder from my house

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'm out here in 970. Not too far.

[–] Thteven 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do I count if it was 25 years ago?

[–] Retrograde 3 points 1 year ago

Depends if you kept your phone number :) I've had my 303 for like 25 years now, never letting that shit go

[–] spiffy_spaceman 3 points 1 year ago

There's a Boulder instance?! Why was I not informed?

[–] atomicorange 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Mostly_Gristle 3 points 1 year ago

Literally dozens!

[–] gnomesaiyan 11 points 1 year ago

This is the way.

[–] BreadOven 8 points 1 year ago

Don't forget the raccoons.

Always weird seeing random boulder stuff as a boulderite. Good to know there's a presence on Lemmy now!

[–] frokie 3 points 1 year ago

Boulderite here too! Can someone actually link the comm?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Now I'm not trying to beg or anything, but there's always musicwithamessage which I would LOVE for others to post to. 😁

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[email protected] for the relative link from Lemmy 💖

Is that boulder as in the place or boulder as in the subspace of climbing low to the ground without a rope?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's The_Boulder for enthusiasts of the Avatar character.

[–] SpaceNoodle 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Avatar: The Shape of Water, or the prequel?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The animated series that feels nothing like the movies for some reason.

[–] SpaceNoodle 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't that the show with the lightsabers?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No it's a show with that ring.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh right, and the blue phone booth that’s bigger on the inside?

[–] frokie 2 points 1 year ago

No, you’re thinking of Inspector Spacetime. We’re talking about the show with the blue people in the far off planet humans invade for their vibranium.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Boulder, as in Harlequin's Gardens. If you're looking to use your crash pad I'd imagine that's in /c/bouldering, if it exists yet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

{found this post in new after i scrolled for a while}

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Needs a list of the communities as I'm too lazy to type it in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It was really cool to see that one of the communities i really liked on reddit (flashlights) was already existed on lemmy when i joined.
