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 federated instances' admins or moderators.

Unrelated, I also hate fake phonetic transcription. It's [fɹ̥ɛnd̥] on Wiktionary. [frend] would be pronounced with a rolled (trilled) r like in Spanish. The /e/ is closer to the ay of may
Yeah, this says nothing about how to pronounce it unless you already speak English and know how those letters are pronounced, which defeats the whole purpose.
It's just how you're supposed to read "friend dot com"
Frrrrrrrrrryyynd
Probably AI generated the transcription, if not the entire ad
Love spotting a fellow IPA-familiar nerd in the wild
I'm not super across all of it but I learnt enough at uni to know bs when I see it, and I see it everywhere
