movies@piefed.social•What is the most mature G-rated movie you've ever seen?English
2·4 days agoIt’s mostly rated TV-PG. The equivalent in TV you a ‘G’ trying is TV-G or TV-Y.

14·4 days agoThat’s objectively not true. Studios could choose to have a movie rated or not. Many are just “un-rated”.
Many were rated as G because post-Hayes Code but pre-MPAA ratings, most would have earned a G anyway

17·4 days agoFor a G-rated movie? Imagine watching that as a 5 year old.
But it’s not just that scene. In general, the movie is fairly dark, the story is fairly complicated, and it’s very slowly paced.
I’d still put it in the list of ‘mature’ even if I’m not arguing it should be rated R or anything. It is obviously rated G after all

431·4 days agoStar Trek the Motion Picture pretty gnarly transporter death with screaming, very slow ‘think piece’ pace and subject matter
2001 A Space Odyssey Mind bending, bizarre, slow. Mature subject matter and homicidal computers
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) Acid trip of a movie with some bizarre things that have to have killed some kids

OpenChristian@lemmy.ca•How many churches have you been to?English
4·13 days agoThat I can remember? And regularly attended? At least 10. All protestant, but mix of evangelical, non-denominational, and now, mainline.
Mostly because I’ve moved around to different cities a fair amount in my life, but I’ve also switched churches without moving while my theological understanding has shifted.
If you count churches I’ve just visited and not regularly attended? At least another 10-12. Maybe 15.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do we have alcohol advertisements. We don't allow cigarettes to advertise
16·13 days agoNot sure where you live, but I think basically every state in the USA has an extra tax on alcohol.
Look up “sin tax”
I think it was just north of Portland, OR. I don’t remember for sure. It was on the train from Oakland to Seattle.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL steak Canadian was not invented in Canada and almost no one in Canada knows what it is.English

(I’m from the USA. FWIW)

Hockey@lemmy.ca•How the PWHL is trying to discourage teams from tanking
1·18 days agoI guess that’s the rush is a really bad team who can’t win anything at all. I could see it being horrible for baseball or some league that really struggles with parity and no salary cap, etc.
But NHL and PWHL don’t seem to have that kind of problem as much. I guess it does risk someone falling to the basement and not being able to climb out, though.

6·19 days agoI love this idea. Wish other leagues would implement it.
“Stop posting in relevant communities”
Sincerely just trying to help post content to otherwise largely dead communities that often struggle to have a few posts in a week much less a day.
Also, I’m not getting down-voted on the whole. Apparently lots of people are enjoying the content.
Nice.
I think this one in Toronto was actually under construction, so it’s not always like this.
I got yelled at for making original posts in multiple communities, now I get yelled at for cross posts. I’m just posting relevant content to relevant groups.
I thought the cross post was supposed to solve for it and your client only showS one post if you’re subbed to multiple communities that it’s cross posted to, no? I only see it once in my feeds.

1·25 days agoNo, it’s construction scaffolding. I think it’s on a building near the Hockey Hall of Fame on Yonge Street. Not sure which

1·26 days agoOh, ha. I get it now. Out of context jump. I did read the book and see the movie. On other threads people keep asking me where it was taken so thought you were too.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I actually find a job that isn't retail?
3·26 days agoWhat are your interests and skills? Like someone else said, who you know matters more than anything else, but depending on what your interests and skills are, you can go out of your way to connect with people in that space.
And get used to finding ways of talking about yourself as a good fit for that kind of job. Brag on yourself.
Also, volunteering is a great way to build up a resume of skills in areas where you have no prior experience. There are jobs at food banks, homeless shelters, etc., but there are also often places like art museums and zoos that need volunteers. Basically, any non-profit you can think of probably runs largely on volunteers. Sometimes it’s in a warehouse or doing trash cleanup, but often they’re in office tasks like filing, misc office work, answering customer service emails, etc., that would be a great stepping stone to getting paid to do those things somewhere.














No, that was the first version in a previous snapshot. Even the new ones in this post are not in a real release, just a preview snapshot. Still a work in progress
