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

For those who haven't heard yet: a radio show booked an Australian "Gender Critical" :up-yours-woke-moralists: man to argue against trans rights. But people checked his Twitter likes and they were half GC and half... trans porn. : YEARS worth of it. So he cancelled his appearance and deleted his account ๐Ÿ˜‚ :thonk-trans:

I think that's the only line of dialogue that stuck with me from Automata. Basically calling the player a coomer.

Pretty sure it's meant to be "kill", but the quadruple asterisk is great in English cause it could also mean fuck. And as it turns out there's definitely overlap. :agony:

The point is that both work. I'm pretty sure it had that same ambiguity in Japanese too. And both are true.

It's definitely supposed to be ambiguous. 2B and 9S have a death and sex thing going on.

The whole Romeos and Juliets sequence is pretty memorable, if only because it comes out of nowhere.

Then it backhands you again later. :doomjak:
