Wild magic Sorcerer: I do not control the Lobsters (they just kind of showed up)

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Now I'm curious what word(s) are between "the speed" and "lobsters die".

Maybe "that the", perhaps?

[–] amoistgrandpa@lemm.ee 19 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The original quote is "I do not control the speed at which lobsters die". I'm loathe to link to Reddit, but you can find more similar memes here (and in that entire subreddit).

Is there a speedoflobsters community on lemmy, maybe under a different name, I do not know about?

[–] MHLoppy@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

There's !speedoflobsters@lemmy.world and !speedoflobsters@sh.itjust.works but both are small and/or fairly inactive

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Do they have contrasting moderation styles? If not, this seems like they could benefit from consolidation.

[–] MHLoppy@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

Well there's 11 posts between them so there's not much moderation style to look at, but yeah they could probably be consolidated (the latter seems to have an active mod vs the ~~latter's~~ former's dormant mod, so maybe that's the better choice)

edit: typo

Reject modernity embrace the speed at which lobsters die.
