I agree with everything except limiting the amount requested. That seems arbitrary and would make the comm useless to people who need more than $100 (or whatever limit we would set), as emergencies often are more costly than that especially in the current economy. Imo the other requested changes would greatly improve the experience for both requestors and donators without setting a hard cap on how much someone can ask for.

This was in a Transformers comic? Maybe those writers have the sauce after all

Linkedin is pure business ghoul bullshit with no redeeming qualities but you're forced to have one for "networking" so I'd say that's the worst one.

Ah shit does that include Jojo's Colored Adventure? I never got around to reading part 8

Thank you for the insight, I think I understand the sentiment now. I'm just really tired of [largely white] people lionizing the USSR while ignoring the other incredible socialist projects that still exist to this day

it does at least ensure the comm name is just as unfunny as the average post

nothing is gonna substitute ussr. workers of the world have been orphaned in 1991

Nah this is erasure of all current AES states (China, cuba, vietnam). The soviet union was not the be-all-end-all of socialism

The worst people you know's sole desire in life is to be obscenely rich

This game has only been out for 6 months michael-laugh

I tried it a few months back and it was fine? I guess? F2P CoD with hero shooter bullshit tacked on, absolutely 0 original ideas or changes to the gameplay formula, also with terrible netcode and widespread hit reg issues that Ubisoft never even attempted to fix rip-bozo

 

Hello comrades, it's time for our first discussion thread for The Will to Change! Please share your thoughts below on the first two sections of the book. There's quite a lot to talk about between hooks' discussion of masculinity discourse within feminist circles, the ways both men and women uphold patriarchy, and the near universal experience of men being forced to suppress their rich emotional worlds from a young age. I'll be posting my thoughts in a little bit after I'm done with work.

If you haven't read the book yet but would like to, its available free on the Internet Archive in text form, as well as an audiobook on Youtube with content warnings at the start of each chapter, courtesy of the Anarchist Audio Library, and as an audiobook on our very own TankieTube! (note: the YT version is missing the Preface but the Tankietube version has it) Let me know if you'd like to be added to the ping list!

Our next discussion will be on Chapters 2 (Understanding Patriarchy) and 3 (Being a Boy), beginning on 12/4.

Thanks to everyone who is or will be participating, I'm really looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts! feminism

(reposting a modified version of @Breath_Of_The_Snake@hexbear.net's post here from several months back when the comm was initially reopened)

Please chime in with the type of content and discussion you would like to see here.

If you’re interested in helping out with posting or moderating, please actively report posts that even remotely seem rule-breaking, and/or send one of the admins a mod application if you're interested in modding. While there is value in calling out comments and trying to teach people, leaving anything egregious up for too long could promote people blocking the comm even if they might otherwise want to see the “good” posts and/or learning opportunities.

Another question is whether this should become a local-only comm, let us know your thoughts below.

In the coming days we'll formally announce a book club reading The Will to Change by bell hooks, and we expect that masc users will participate and engage with the material, just like with cis users in the battle against transphobia early in our history. As socialists we have a responsibility to read theory and actively work to remove our brainworms to be better comrades.

Please comment with any suggestions or concerns you have. Cheers hexbear-pride feminism

edit: please read The Gender Accelerationist Manifesto as a primer for the tone we're going for in this comm

As a huge fan of Vampire Survivors and having played a LOT of the copycat games that spawned in its wake, I'm confident in saying that Halls of Torment is the best of the lot by far and even better than VS. Sick ass retro Diablo-like aesthetic that absolutely DRIPS with atmosphere and texture and personality, quest-based meta progression that's way more interesting than just "spend 1000 gold for +5% permanent damage!", 500+ challenges/achievements to complete, characters that are actually distinct and require very different playstyles, there's GEAR you can collect and equip like an ARPG, and one of the characters has a doggo-matapacos who goes around biting the dicks off of demons.

If you have any interest in the Survivors genre or roguelikes in general I'd strongly recommend at least playing the demo or dropping $5 on the full game (god I love that VS set the trend of making these games dirt ass cheap). I started playing back when it first launched in EA and was immediately hooked and its only gotten way better since.

Wanna browse some dope creative art with a specific theme? Nah enjoy this unnaturally smooth looking zero effort fucking garbage made by a guy named ChillmasterArtgod69 who calls himself an "AI artist" in his profile kiryu-pain

 

Incredible stuff, how can you read this and even remotely believe it instead of pissing yourself laughing? "in bad country, criticism from the head of state towards the former head of state forces people to off themselves" gimme a fuckin break dude. On top of that the broken citation is a random BBC Radio report from 2009 che-smile

Check out this dork shit lol

 

I absolutely love the first 2 movies and have been routinely disappointed by everything after them, Zero seems to be getting good reviews but I'm curious what the hexfolk think
