Friendly reminder that we are all comrades here and we should act better on that (myself included).

I'm fairly new here, but you guys are super cool and the site has been a good outlet for me recently. Whether it's shitposting or honest conversation, it's great to being around like-minded people who can find humor in the things that most people would question my sanity over and value in the ideals that most people do question my sanity over.

For the last couple weeks of 2023, hexbear has been one of the first places I navigate to when I start my morning doom scroll, and hopefully 2024 is more of the same.

If you're mad or have been feeling on edge lately, just remember:

An absurdly hilarious election season is now less than 12 months away. Yes, we shit on electoralism, but boy oh boy do we love the slop and the truck is just pulling up to our gate.

We may have sharpened our iron recently against each other. We may have acted a little skittish. But the new dawn approaches rapidly. We are ready to enjoy it.

If you haven't been appreciating your comrades, or haven't been feeling appreciated, just know that you are about to be flooded with appreciation and content to appreciate.

[end of cringepost]

I will deep fry my enemies, adversaries, and foes.

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.

Never stop posting and never stop caring. These are the pillars of hexbear.

Well, those and

"I never thought I'd post side-by-side with a Posadist."

"How about side-by-side with a comrade?"

"Aye. I could do that."

love yourself and everyone around you

@Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net Hope you have a good acceptance speech prepared for the highest honor this lovely disfunctional family can bestow.

Never stop posting you beautiful bastards.

I keep being amazed at how compassionate, how intelligent, how accepting, how well-informed and how funny all of my Hexbear comrades are. You are all truly awesome and amazing and you all make Hexbear the nicest community I've ever experienced on the internet.

I don't know what I've done and I blame you for it

This place has been a really welcoming online space. I am really glad to have found everyone here.

This is a friendly reminder that I love you all and you have all made my life slightly better for existing.

Anybody who posts here regularly and has been here for awhile should be assumed to be in good faith and not someone you should be calling stupid or trying to other. Were at different stages in our journey in different areas and that should be respected. Slapfighting reddit/facebook style is reactionary we can come to understandings.

That being said its also okay to find yourself in that territory, try to get out asap bcos everyone here is good people

This is one of the last spaces I hang out in that feels like the internet did when I was younger.

Uhh let me say cheers

this place rules, i didn't really post after r/cth went to chapo dot chat because im app-pilled and could never get the mobile web app to cooperate. When i heard hexbear was working towards api parity after the reddit exodus i signed back in and resumed my posting praxis. I'm sorry i stopped posting, but I'm back baybee awoopoooo

i have a terrible habit of only posting when i'm at peak pique so consider this my formal apology for being a huge bitch all the time

i'll try to treat you all better in the future

Would like to take this opportunity to say: in my three months here so far I have not had a single argument or bitching session. By contrast it took me less than a month on tumblr to be involved in various internet bloodbaths; hexbear is a paradise by comparison

i will act worse, so we can establish a baseline of good behavior.

We have to remember the hexbear motto. PPB : polite, precise, brief

I wanted to fight but okay if I have to

1. Create a throwaway reddit account

2. Troll liberals.

3. Logout and delete the post from browser history.

I consider this website to be my found family of funny internet communists. We have our ups, our downs, and the really far downs, but I couldn't imagine what life would be like without you libs. Love all of you

Hi, I'm nobody in particular. This threat will not stand.

aww.

Did I miss a struggle session or something?

How dare you be nice to me.

I promise to be nicer to Sean Hannity this year

(not really)

I don't have the energy to post a lot but I'm here every day and this is easily my favorite place on the internet. Maybe it's terminally-online but this place is special to me and I love you all

Also keep being weird (I am weird too lol)

Ya'll changed my life in the best ways, and have connected me to more marxist culture and theory than i thought possible

although we fight here, i have never felt more accepted for who i am than on hexbear and lemmygrad

thank mr anarchist for good praxis and content

I wholeheartedly approve this message.

I appreciate all of you on here and the work so many have done to build this community. The humor, commentary on current events, and niche posts on hobbies that grab my interest are always something to look forward to. I also appreciate the support we give one another, especially when it helps lift the spirits of some of our comrades when they are feeling down. It's just good for people to feel appreciated and belong like that. 💛

This iteration of my presence here is going to be less argumentative about unimportant things. Nobody needs to get in cheap dunks on the internet

Good post

right back atcha slugger

(edit: i mean all the nice and lovely compliment things)

Sorry, I don't want to be mean.

I hope that 2024 brings good posts and cathartic discussions in good faith and proletarian revelry.

Good post

not much to add other than what I've said in previous snuggle threads like this, I find it helps me to be a more pleasant poster (if not person) if I actively try to balance out every shit post with something sincere

This place has been good for me. Sometimes I can be pretty bitchy and incoherent. Not being able to get meds anymore, and a time on incorrect meds has really done a number on me. is the only place that I'm not a target for being schizophrenic. Thank you guys for tolerating the incoherent posting, because this website is pretty much the only place I have to go when I'm starting to get psychotic activity.

I really like this place and it has been a source of comfort for me, and I appreciate everyone whose let me talk about things like when I'm having issues with my dad, or when my mom died last year, and gave me emotional support or advice and stuff

I can get heated and passionate because I care. I want by comrades to do better, but yeah... I should do better too.

been here since the start. seen some shit, missed some shit too. love posting here cuz I can just freely be my silly ND self with reckless abandon.

i notice a lot of regulars but i tend to associate posting with pfps these days for one reason or another. i just know that some people here are brimming with love so radiant that it's impossible to not see them. that's every poster. i dont give a fuck if you dont see it in yourself while reading. it's true.

I've enjoyed this site over the years under different user names, but I've felt welcomed every time.

It's funny because at first, I thought if I made a new account and posted as normal, referencing in-jokes and stuff, that I would be seen as suspicious, or even a wrecker if I brought up genuine concerns I had.

But every time, I'm met with genuine openness and the benefit of the doubt and that means a lot.

One Love comrade <3

I have bronchitis from long covid. I'm fucking covid negative but my lungs are still dying. apparently I'm going to get pneumonia if I don't get the mucus out of my lungs. oh and I have asthma again for the first time in 20 years. this country's covid response is literally going to be the death of me. there's literally no virus in my body - but my lungs are trying to die anyway.

The Chinese "r" sound will be the death of me
