This is directed at nobody in particular. I know this is a rough time of year for a lot of people and just to remind everyone to think of the person on the other end of the line. We're almost through it, the light is coming back, the Holidays (TM) are over and we made it through another horribly fucked up year. On behalf of the hexbear mods we love you all and we want to keep this place being as cool as it is.
Also want to take the time to acknowledge some of our most consistently wholesome posters like @Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net and @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net I honestly don't know how yall keep it up and I salute you.
I could list many others but they are the two that first popped into my head and I wanted to get this post out there sooner than later.

it's corny but i sincerely consider those of you i see posting on here my comrades. i want something better for all of us.
Not corny. The right, especially Dems and Republicans in the States suffer from a sever case of individualism to the point that it's revered as part of our culture. It's gross. Seeing random strangers show communal values across the Internet to and with perfect strangers gives me hope. The fact that a lot of comrades here and on lemmygrad and in the lefty spaces on reddit have espoused and actively done organizing and agitating makes me even more hopeful.
I still have a prominent doomer gene in me but still lol.
Makes me think about folks back in the day mailing letters to each other all the time across the face of the planet. Just keeping up years of correspondence with people they never got to see face to face.
Supposedly some cities in like 19th century England had mail service three times a day, people were sending so many letters and notes back and forth. Truly, they were posters o7
