I’ve been on an unintentional break from hexbear over the past 10 months since the redesign broke it on my phone and school started. But I have a new phone now, so what’s been happening? Are we finally blocked by everyone except lemmygrad? Any new struggle sessions? Fill me in!
u/Melina was contained and c/fakenews was purged.
Was it actually removed? I filtered both out months ago.
Next up, badposting?
This is definitely not true. Melina has used many different usernames. I have a pretty good idea what their current username is.
That Melinda is out there! She can’t be bargained with. She can’t be reasoned with. She doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And she absolutely will not stop—ever—until you are
!*
The name Melina was a reference to the character named Melina in Elden Ring by From Software, the same game studio produced Dark Souls. Melina once told me that they had other usernames in reference to Dark Souls as well.
We must have extreme vetting of all From Software fans.

Self_Hating_Moid got banned for repeatedly posting weird racial essentialism shit
And then made an alt that they admitted was an alt, but somehow didn’t get banned for that.
somehow didn’t get banned for that.
they did actually.
Oh neat! I remember reporting their comment where they admitted it was an alt and nothing had come of it days later, so I was pretty miffed.
oh yeah that was super fuckin cringe.
The defederations tapered off. We had a really funny tension with dbzer0 a few months ago, where instead of defederating, we banned just their admins, and nothing further happened.
The special relationship with Lemmygrad is as strong as ever.
BMF was banned for doing a very superficial sectarianism. It had happened a dozen times before but this time they haven’t been spotted since.
DayOfDoom, one of our most entertaining posters, turned out to not be doing a bit and was really that perturbed to the core, and got banned for it.
There was a micro struggle session about olibe oiol, and something bigger about… I forget what.
We took site surveys and 104% of us are queer as fuck.
We’ve had a lot of “posting X every day until I don’t” streaks, plenty of megathreads of all shades.
The site has been utterly overrun by beanis, and there’s no going back.
The olive oil struggle session was so funny. More theory came up on that than most posts on the site
Oil ah kin say is, you is mah goil. :popeye:
wait, i missed this, what was this about?
buckle your seatbelt and search for “smoke point”
I still can’t believe there was an argument over fucking olive oil.
Like the indoor cats vs outdoor cats and stacking rocks were pretty incredulous, but come on how do you end up on the wrong side of the olive oil argument and still double down when proven wrong.
Not trying to restart a struggle session, but I completely missed the stacking rocks argument. Can someone give me a quick rundown on why it’s good/bad?
Damn, that thread is half a graveyard
Thank you comrade
I’ll still never forgive the morons who insist on stacking rocks after I demonstrated the many ways it is objectively bad for the environment. Like I thought I was making a friendly PSA to help give a quick tip on how to help people who didn’t know they were disturbing fragile ecosystems
Can I stack rocks if it’s the chunks of asphalt and concrete from decaying infrastructure, or is that forbidden as well?
Yes you should stack those actually
You know what you need to do to stack rocks, or have an outdoor cat, or go shooting a Tsesarevich?
You have to go out.
or go shooting a Tsesarevich?
Oh yeah I forgot about that one
I would say making any physical contact with grass is bad. People should be confined to the arcology until we digitize our minds into a single hivemind and become transhuman.

You should make as much contact as possible with nonnative grasses in order to eliminate them from the environment.
Cause it obviously wasn’t that simple.
It is obviously that simple. No need to rehash this. The science is that stacking rocks is bad. I made the post because the science is that stacking rocks is bad. The national parks ask people not to stack rocks. Every scientist who works in the field knows stacking rocks is bad.
To argue it isn’t that simple is straight up climate change denialism levels of ignoring science.
I’m certainly not rehashing or arguing either way. But if it was ‘obviously that simple’, it wouldn’t have made for a silly struggle session.
It was obviously that simple, that’s why it made for a ridiculous struggle session
wait i missed the olive oil one, is there a link somewhere
Death to America
uncannily fast reply but thank you for your service :07
Death to America
Damn, I should get a medal for being present for that one.
lmao that one was also my fault
I mean I was the one who brought up Mao, I can’t say I’m not proud of it lol
Forgot the one thing that has not tapered off much to the amusement of the rest of the sane fediverse: lemmy.world still cannot stop making hundred comment threads about how mean and bad the hexbear is and pretending to be ignorant of what we actually think despite every single time someone from another instance that’s still federated there painstakingly explaining exactly what our party lines so to speak tend to be.
Also the Aaron Bushnell struggle session
Wherein some (probably mostly white folks) did performative slander on their character (“muh they’re still a troop”) meanwhile the PFLP literally posted a statement honoring and recognizing Aaron as a martyr.
Oh yeah and then you missed that time I pulled the uno reverse card on the little shit that kept trying to get me evicted https://hexbear.net/post/1732105
şehidin LEMMYruz, the martyrs live forever
DayOfDoom, one of our most entertaining posters, turned out to not be doing a bit and was really that perturbed to the core, and got banned for it.
uhhh, context? I did not realise it wasn’t a bit
I often wonder if we are linked because of how often you end up having posted the exact same thing I’m thinking about.
We tried to do a communism but we were 1 user short

we’ll get em next time
Buncha Redditors exodused here. I’m Redditors.
Hexbear has helped me be off TikTok and reddit for likea whole week now and my world feels so nice and peaceful
People were disturbed by a downwards trend in non-news-thread effort posting so a public works project was enacted that resulted in the creation of c/badposting
Badposting exists, yet I still see bad posts outside of it. Curious.
I’ve been forced to touch less grass and my shitposting ratio has increased
Some wreckers and trolls have came and went but mostly I am too late to say mean things so I am sad about that but the dunks are still entertaining
Biden is still trying to lose to prove his love to his high-school sweetheart, Israel
I came back after touching grass for about two years.
Also trans’d my gender
Emojis and the dunk tank got a rule about “no nobodies” or something. Some drama about posting fake news and bad posts.
Silly strugglesessions about who was more bourgeoise and the like.Pretty sure you just had to delete the cookies on your phone browser to fix the bug.
Suicide bombing is badass
All the mods signed a joint letter declaring themselves liberal. Everyone (but me) supported it
Please go to my profile and review all comments and posts made since your last activity on the site. This will be your only warning
Mods formed a mixed bio-mechanical hive consciousness and internal to THEIR instantaneous thought-space THEY mock and share all of our sign-up entries, particularly the discussion section where we say why we signed up.
If we don’t use THEIR all-caps pronouns in total deference to THEIR all-knowing woke superiority to us posters, we get banned and our entry paragraph gets pinned to the front page.
