"D-do the voice, Morty, I'm *burp* I'm almost there"

I thought they dropped the charges

- Oh I agree whole heartedly. But he isn’t going to prison over it is what I’m saying.
- Hopefully they can find someone who can keep the spirit of the show alive, then. I'd hate to see it go. It was such a unique show.
- very, very real
  
  And your proof that screenshots posted to twitter are def real and totally unfakeable is?….

“Awww geez…”

Aww geez, Big Tony, not in the ass again! Oh god, oh geez ooOoooOOOOO…

Edit: Big T: Quick 2 minutes, in and out!
Aw geez

'Rick and Morty' is recasting Justin Roiland for Season 7

Justin Roiland's term as the titular offbeat pairing of Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith is truly over, with the show officially on the hunt for a new replacement voice actor(opens in a new tab). The co-creator and star of Adult Swim phenom Rick and Morty was booted from the show earlier this year, following the public unveiling of felony domestic violence charges and a widespread denouncement of inappropriate and abusive behavior among cast and crew. On Jan. 24, the show announced Roiland's departure and reassured fans that the show would continue. The charges against Roiland have since been dismissed. <(at least this one has, good legal ass covering mashable lmao)

Gotta admit. When looking at the co creators of Rick and Morty I wouldn't have thought Roiland would be the problematic one.

Really? You are surprised that the guy who made "Doc and Mharti" is a pretty disturbed person?
From what I can tell Dan Harmon just has a lot of personal issues that sometimes eeks out in his attitude towards others. Even with his problems he never seemed like he'd be the kind to actually do something awful towards others and to do it intentionally
- A lot of comedians have dark issues and it's part of the reason they can make boundary pushing comedy.
Dan harmon made way more than Rick and Morty

Ah, geez, Butch, the hemorrhoids in my ass are flaming still

Rooland's voices he does aren't even unique imo. I'm positive there are plenty of other funny people who could cover any role he has played. Shit I can do all his famous characters and I'm an IT guy. This dude ain't special, he just had connections.

Roiland isn’t just the voices though. Replacing voices with copycats has never been the issue. Roilands writing and ideas is what makes the show. I’m not confident in the upcoming seasons at all. They’re off to a terrible start with the new voice actor imo, terrible choice.
- After reading up on Roiland and his past ventures. I'd be hesitant to say it was his writing that made the show. I'll have to catch up on R&M to really know. But I really don't feel like that dude is packing literary nukes in his pocket. Harmon was the one originally approached for R&M, Roiland has like Acceptable.tv as one of his only writing gigs besides R&M. I think the bulk of the talent came from elsewhere he is mostly a voice actor.
- Harmon is the much better writer. Rowlands writing has been less involved for years now. The worst episodes are Roilands input.
  
  With Harmon as sole writer the show is bound to hit a stride.
- I heard Roland hasn't written for Rick and Morty for many seasons now.

Edgelords here making me question my lemmy account. I really hope lemmy crawls out of this phase and becomes a place that normies can feel at home.

This is “memes.” Are you expecting Dostoevsky?
- Look at this little removed over here, correctly spelling the surname of 19th century Russian novelist Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky.
  
  What a NERD.
  
  /s
- Actually you make a great point. Memes should be treated FAR less seriously than, say, a news magazine. Let's remember which magazine we're in, folks
  
  Dicks out for Harambe, and all that
I don't want to sound like a "my way or the highway" guy, but the whole point of the Fediverse is that different instances have different rulesets and, by consequence, different users behaviors. There's nothing wrong in looking for a place that suits your needs.
For example, places like beehaw.org have stricter moderation rules and mild interactions, with less to no shitposting at all, so if that's what you're into might be good for you to take a look.
- I get it, but the fediverse is confusing. It’s actually difficult to only see local content, or to know what instance to be on for what content. I think there needs to be some quality of life features to make it clear on how to navigate, and filter etc.
I kind of agree with the sentiment from the other answers. In the last weeks I’ve seen quite a few comments made by users, threatening to leave the platform because of one thing or the other. I want to be clear that I think everyone should be welcome here, and should feel there is a place for them as well. However, I am under the impression that most of these people commenting this are not really generating content themselves.

I think it’s important to realize that lemmy is in a growing stage, with growing pains. The content is as good as we, the community, make it. If you feel disenfranchised, it is certainly your right to respectfully complain, but I think it would be even more valuable to create a community that reflects your needs, and to create content that will please you and people with interests aligned with yours.
- I would generate content, but I’m not good at memes! I like to comment more than post. Was on Reddit for 15 years and probably had less than a hundred posts.
I blocked the meme subs, which massively improves the experience.
- You're on a meme sub though?
Don't let the door hit you
Go back to Reddit.
- I agree.
  
  If someone is looking for the canned this-is-what-the-headline-said-so-it-is-the-truth-and-anything-that-challenges-that-is-edgy then go to one of the other multitude of social media sites that have been decimated by that exact mentality.
  
  For me, Lemmy is a place where ideas can be discussed, and not automatically downvoted into oblivion because it may challenge the conventional wisdom, and that's what Reddit used to be too.
  
  Edit: Just to be clear, this is to say nothing about the Justin Roiland debacle, just the sentiment of Lemmy.
