For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

At work I created a simple spreadsheet to help with a task where you have to add two values in a row together and then subtract a third and then round up to the next multiple of eight. All of these are whole numbers, most of which are less than thirty. A substantial number of the people I work with clearly struggle with it and I'm constantly finding mistakes from when they use it stemming from bad arithmetic.
Realizing this was actually what made me give up on organizing here more than anything else. If Americans can't do first grade level arithmetic no wonder they're so clueless as to how badly they're getting screwed over.
