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 [email protected]

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

when you first ask your prospective girlfriend how much she costs a month, she might say ~~"wtf are you talking about weirdo"~~ ~~"why are you talking like i'm a sex worker"~~ "i don't cost anything haha", but believing this female lie often the beginner ~~sexpat's~~ expat flaneur's first mistake! the real cost will soon become apparent. here are some hidden costs: copyright free music starts playing

  • number one: dinner dates

    • your girlfriend might not be happy to cook for for you immediately after you start dating. in oriental culture, a male often displays his value by purchasing food and drinks at overpriced restaurants. understanding this key mechanic can make or break you as a beginner NeoRomancer. taking her to mcdonalds, or insisting on splitting the bill based on your comparative Sexual Market Values, can result in her displaying IABs (intercourse-avoidant behaviours).
  • number two: shopping
