It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
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 ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Excuse me, strawwhat?
The good thing about British English is that there's never going to be any confusion about "paedo" as in "paedophile" and "pedo" as in "torpedo", at least in writing.
The loss of ae was a disaster for languages
I didn't even consider that really, yet another cultural L for TERF Island that everyone will think of pedophile before torpedo when they see that combination of letters.
Aye but there's always a mixup when software developers need a nonce
That term does makes me feel a bit weird about referring to "nonce words"
great way to down a drink - cw: reddit but actually a pretty decent video showing the concept
That’s… next level alcoholism.
fun fact: i learnt this trick at age 13. britain is great like that
what a strange thing to want a great technique for... why?
because alcoholism is british culture
you mean european culture, but yeah.
still, there's no need to chug drinks to achieve alcoholism.
if i dont drink straight spirits i cant be an alcoholic guvna
and other fairy tales we tells ourselves :)
