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

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

How does he square this with the dbacks tradition of ritualistically sacrificing a bird to get into the world series?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

No the guaranteed way to get into the world series is to eliminate the Brewers in the playoffs.

Ephesians 2:11

And lo, the Lord sayeth that ye shall take a wooden club and strike an orb such that it goes into the sky and smashes the window of Mr. Freiburger down the street

How do you pronounce "Pfaadt"?

I had to watch a couple videos to figure it out but it's F-ahh-t

Exactly like you would imagine someone from Boston pronouncing fart.

There does seem to be some idea here that there is a contradiction between religion and baseball which seems more than a little strange

those are two aspects of his life he's a human being not a baseball machine

Gotta disagree. Nice baseball man exists to throw baseball and make team win.

He shouldn't have a religion unless its my religion. He shouldn't have an ethnicity or culture unless its my religion or culture. He shouldn't be allowed to speak unless he's saying what I agree with.

And he better fucking win, or I will make bomb threats on his family.

"Truly I say to you, the swing starts from the hips. Do not hit the ball, but through the ball", Jesus said to his disciples.

Even God doesn’t like the Astros

EDIT: Wrong league. Okay, God doesn’t like the Astros or Phillies, that checks out

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago
  1. You can straight up go fuck yourself

  2. God hasn't abandoned the Astros. It is the dirty refs who have abandoned the Astros. God has clearly turned his sight from the once-blessed sport of baseball, now that the Dallas Rangers are advancing to the Series.
