If they’ve managed to make a decent live action adaptation of any Japanese media I’m impressed for them. Cowboy Bebop, the Resident Evil tv series come to mind as their mos trecent failings. I think One Pieces kind of cartooniness is something that can be adapted in live action so its good to see them actually do it.

These are very short and small bears. They stand upright an average of 5ft tall, which amongst bears is short enough. Keep in mind even a black bear, another considred small bear, can reach up to over 6ft, 1.82m, tall. Grizzlies and Polar Bears are well over the 8ft, 2.43m, range standing upright. The weight differences are also massive. Their relative size similar peer in the Black Bear is anywhere from 60kg 5o 300kg, or 132-661 pounds. Meanwhile a sunbear is around 27-63kg, 59-143lbs.

With such a lithe bear it creates this oddly human look to them when they stand upright.

He’s talking about Lemmy of Motorhead who is one of the reasons Lemmy is called Lemmy.

Honestly from the memorabilia I just think that was Lemmy’s passion, I was never a big motorhead fan but I’ve seen more than enough instances of his political thoughts to not really look down on him for his collection. He was a dude really passionate about that part of history and loved collecting stuff from it because he thought that the Nazis “looked mean”. By that he meant cool. He got rich and instantly started trying to pick stuff up.

I suppose you could say his collection and widespread appreciation for the aesthetic was a bit tone-deaf and strange but I never thought you could look at his work and his life and call him a Nazi. He clearly wasn’t racist giving his romantic history and had a few interviews where he talked about his disdain for racism.

Fun fact Lemmy actually owned a german tank destroyer called the Hetzer, or the Jagdpanzer 38. His collection was extreme to be honest. He had artifacts from all the axis countries in Europe iirc. I often, when I was younger, wished I was so rich I could collection historical artifacts from ww2 like that. I was wanted a King Tiger, a Pershing and an IS-3, never actually saw service in WW2 in combat but was in the Soviet victory parade. I liked big tanks. Sadly I don’t think I’ll ever get any of those.

I use Kbin over Lemmy for the record.

Kbin already is, it was very much a side project by Ernest that was no where near as mature as Lemmy. As it stands it is growing extremely fast, proportionally it is way more active and grows faster than Lemmy itself. Kbin.social iirc is neck and neck with Lemmy World.

I am fully willing to admit half the reason it’s so popular on the news is the novelty of it. A submarine goes missing, possibly sunk, near the Titanic? The truth is the accidents iwth immigrants and migrants happen so often that most of the media doesn’t really care about it so much any more. But it used to, I remember seeing stuff about bodies washing up on the shores of Italy. When it was novel is was more popular and ‘sold’ well so it was reported on. i guarantee you if subs went missing anywhere near as often in the future you would not see as much about it. That’s just how the media works these days, it’s unfortunate.

Billionaires or not I don’t envy them and if they can be saved I hope they will be. Especially the young guy there with his father.
