The gap in understanding was really something to behold, like being Dracula and every once in a while some villager shows up with a wooden crucifix and some prayed-over creek water, thinking they're gonna be the one to banish the monster.

Actually you tankies are more like voldemort and I'm the legendary guy with the scar who's here to maintain the status quo

We know that JK Rowling didn’t originally intend Harry to be a cop because if she had she would have named him Thumble Wifebeater

Honestly I almost feel like we should loosen the mod policy to let some back in. It was a good bonding exercise for us, I felt like we all got along better when we had Libs to dunk on.

You can just go outside of hexbear to lemmy dot ml and get the same thing.

  1. I'm very non-confrontational IRL

  2. There's actual consequences for this behavior IRL, like losing friends, jobs, getting the cops called on you

when I first started on lemmy.ml I received a ban from a federated instance for being a "hexbear alt and troll", that's how I realized I might fit in here

I've said this since forever. People talk about hexbear pre-federation as if it was a good place. It was stale, full of people arguing over rocks and when they weren't doing that they were posting about how much better a site this is than Reddit.

I liked the bit I had going during election season where I just linked them the last person I argued with, since they all said the same. Ended having a link-chain of 8 or so.
