How'd you argue against a person who says rich people are needed to provide jobs to the poor? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[โ€“] Okokimup@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

What are jobs? Are we talking about work that needs to be done, or are we requiring people to keep busy doing nothing to earn the right to stay alive?

What are you watching and what do you recommend this week? in c/television@piefed.social
[โ€“] Okokimup@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Just watched Wonder Man. Can be stressful at times, when you know something is horrible is going to happen, and you're just waiting for the hammer to drop. Ben Kingsley is fantastic. Very different from other Marvel properties.

Why are there no fossils of angels? in c/shittyasklemmy@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] Okokimup@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

They're mostly eyes, which don't fossilize well.

If you had to talk to a stranger, what would you want it to be about? (lemmy.world)
 

Many of us on platforms like this are introverts, or autistic, or have social anxiety, or for whatever reason, have trouble meeting new people or engaging with strangers. If someone wanted to engage you in conversation, what topic would you be happiest to talk about?

On my way to an election site (US 2024) I ran over a cardinal. I knew then it was gonna be bad.

What's an objectively terrible movie that you love anyway? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[โ€“] Okokimup@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Struggling with whether to up vote or down vote, because Repo is an amazing movie. Its definitely not for everyone, though, so I would give a recommendation without knowing the person's taste.

Planning a portrait of my grandma as a young woman. I've got a black and white photo that doesn't have much shadow to work with so i'm trying to figure out where to add some for contrast. I'm going to make it a colorful abstract and add some flowers near her collar.

How Would you improve this background? (lemmy.world)
 

My mom requested a valentines day style painting, and I love how the flamingos look, but I hate this background. Id love some suggestions on how to change it. That can mean adapting the current background in some way, or completely covering it and doing something new. I have no problem doing that.

Can anyone offer their ideas? Thanks in advance.

Christmas Self Portrait (lemmy.world)
 

Project was too ambitious for just starting out with oil pastels. Don't mind sharing a portrait of myself, given it looks nothing like me.

YSK to get a passport in the US, you need to have access to information about your parents and most recent ex-spouse (lemmy.world)
 

Why?

If you're in the US, you should know this because if you want to apply for a passport, you'll be required to provide information about your parents such as birth dates and places. If you're divorced, you will have to provide the same info along with marriage and divorce date, even if it was decades ago. So if you have access to that info, make sure you record it somewhere safe for Future use.

If you're not in the US, you should know because this information can be difficult for people to get if they never knew one or both parents, or have a bad/non-relationship with them. Or if they had a contentious divorce or an abusive partner. Which is another reason why just leaving the country can be difficult for people who are already marginalized.
