@AnthonyJK I'm from the same area. I didnt measure mine, but my sister and others have shown rulers with about 8-9 inches.

I live in Louisiana. And I just experienced 9 inches of snow. And I had the day off. And I have gone buck wild making snow ppl. These are the first I have ever made. I am so proud of my dudes.

I cant mention enough how rare snow is in my area. And this much snow is really rare. And most of the times it has snowed in the last 30 years, I couldnt play. But I reeaally got to today. And I had so much fun. I am so glad.

@NYCKNP That would be a cool idea

@NYCKNP I havnt even watched Super, and I can tell that there is little way for them to be one after the other. And just the previews of Daima make that look less likely.

I got annoyed with the drab-ness of GT, so I have no protective feelings to it. But some ppl sure do like it. I dont want to take it from them. But, this pretending shows maybe, prob, could be in the same timeline feels silly, and taxing to all involved.

#WarOfTheRohirrim is a great #movie. Very true to the visuals of the trilogy. And also very focused on its story.

When a call of the Rohan nobles comes together. A ill fated challenge goes wrong. Which tears a family, troubles a people, and causes the death and suffering of many.

Great fights, fantastic backgrounds, voice acting that is in line w/ the trilogy. The pacing is slow, but pays off in the end. Well told story.

#Belle is a freaking beautiful #movie.

Suzu lost her mother at an early age. And it is still affecting her like. But in the digital society, U, she is Belle. And there, secretly, she has a voice that amazes the whole net.

This #film moves at a quick pace, but I felt like I could follow. The U visuals are soo cool. Down to the bg chars.

But by and large, this is a vveerryy enjoyable movie. More in the thread.

@youronlyone I dont want to shun the ppl on Threads. But I also dont want to play the game of "either you give us a way to you, or you're a bad person for being rude to our users."

@youronlyone @hello I should have worded that better.

I meant would Threads/Meta the company be able to data mine me if a Threads account follows or engadges with my posts.

Of course the company has the resources & motivation to make an apperatus to do that. There is also the question if legally they can do that (not that that nessicarily stops them). There are GDPR considerations. But also, I'm guessing the Threads user has an agreement w/ them, but I dont, and it's my data.

@hello So, does anyone know if a Threads person following &/or engadging with me means they can or will datamine me?

Trying to decide if i want to blanket ban Threads accouts.

@NYCKNP I have been thinking this would be a good idea. I miss being able to watch stuff at the same time with ppl.

Here's hoping we can get CN back, not as a rerun place. But, how likely that is under Zazlov, not likely.

@NYCKNP I'm glad everything waited until now. I didnt see any commercials until today. Which ok. At least we are keeping the very different holidays at that barrier.

@silver_huskey Paaaace yourself.

@silver_huskey Prob, yes. An episode is a bit of a heavy meal.

@NYCKNP Ahh. 😲 Wow. End of an era.

Thanks for the info. I wasnt minding the anime area very well. And this seemed significant.

@NYCKNP Ohh, so now it will be "(blank) anime was dubbed by crunchy roll"?

@NYCKNP So is Funimation- the production company for dubing- still around?

@NYCKNP 💢 It's not as if the ads there now are not repetitive and annoying enough.

@feditips
I know you not the dev, but to say in general: I hate that one would have to dig to get to the local timeline on the app.

It's the TL i keep up with the most, and didnt like having to sift throu that each time.

@feditips My worry with a badge is that it could be something a donor lords over others (even just verbally). Or a boon that admins could coerce from donors for more. [And these are kind of "assuming the worst" cases].

But, if the badge could be obtained with even the lowest possible donation, that could mitigate that, significantly. Less so if there are tiers of donations.
