I have a couple years-long discontinued flavors I still miss to this day. After looking at the site just now, one of them (Makin’ Whoopie Pie) is in a couple buried references of trivia questions they’ve asked, and the other (Maple Blonde Brownie) is entirely absent. I wonder why they aren’t listed in the “graveyard”.

The forums on the metal archives are still active and a good resource for various different things concerning extreme metal. Bits of news, discussion, and some out of left field recommendations that I don’t find other places.

Last I saw it isn’t actually clear whether or not Fadades is parody or legitimate. Very clear in any either case that Fadades is great.

Especially within a genre like black metal where bands will make contra-conventional artistic decisions by way of course as it is, stumbling upon a vibe like this out of honest artistic expression vs. deriving it with a manifest ambiguity where the tongue seems to sprout from the cheek almost hardly matters. However Fadades came to be, it’s a monument to whatever it actually is.

The fandom in the Godzilla sub was super active on Reddit. Not much going on here really. Some chatter recently from the buzz Minus One has been getting, but I miss the daily active discussions and dumb memes from people actually plugged in to the community.

So glad this movie is doing well. I hope this puts an exclamation point on the sentiment that a global audience wants to see Japanese Godzilla films that Toho will keep in mind. This article states how much more Minus One is grossing over Shin Godzilla, but the Shin Godzilla screenings (in my region anyway) were so limited that this is anything but a surprise.

Minus One is great. I encourage everyone to see it. I’m hoping to catch it again while it’s still on the big screen. Goji fans rejoice!

Tristania - World of Glass, and if you like that check out the two albums before it as well.

Kinda neat, but pretty janky. Can’t get it to open up in street view.

Just tried using Google Earth to check for any Taco Bell locations to confirm this. How convenient that it wouldn’t let me look anywhere close to Mars. They’re keeping something from us!

My impression of squabbles after a while was more “feigned whimsy reddit”. The people who loved the quirky snu aspect of reddit found their way there. “Oh look, he’s wearing a box on his head with a face hole cut out! Ha ha!” - “He’s holding a plate with a piece of birthday cake in one hand and a saxophone in the other! What a whacky character!!!” - “He’s piloting a rocket ship! Space is amAAAAAzing!!!”

The dev seemed like he was impressively dedicated to improving the platform, but I didn’t jive with what I perceived at the time to be the emerging culture there. Nothing offensive about it, but that’s not at all what I’m looking for really. I haven’t been there any type of regularly for a couple weeks, so not sure if that’s still a thing.

Also, I don’t pay strict attention to what instances they’re coming from, but I’ve blocked many communities throughout the fediverse that spam memes like they’re running out of time or something. I don’t think squabbles exclusively lays claim to that type of behavior.

Just my opinion.
