On this week this niche leftist forum was first launched (its was the 24th or 25th i think) Formed from the Chapotraphouse subreddit remnants that survived the reddit ban over the calls of violence against confederate slave owners, the first admins decided to use Lemmy as its base. Originally called Chapo.chat (ChaCha) Hexbear has grown into one of the biggest instances in the lemmyverse.
In this last 5 years hexbear has survived many diffent events from numerous struggle sessions, mod clique-users conflicts, wrecker incursions from other instances and sites, this image 
, a decent amount of fedidrama with other instances and the domain crisis, we still thrive with over 5 million comments and 375k posts.
I still continue my dictatorial rule over the general megathread for now over 4 years now, this time locked in the chapo comm so it can be more easily moderated, c/indigenous has now grown to 750 subs which im very happy plus now i take care of the empoc mega which has been pretty chill so far.
I still really enjoy the fedidrama, it fun to see all the fedilibs always thinking about hexbear despide the fact that they are on defederated instances and they can ust ignore us, we live rent free on their minds

Call me dr eggman the way I’m fucking YOKED

The bottle of vanilla at my work claims in its label to have 300 FLAVOR NOTES. First off, too fucking many. Too many notes. That is fretless flavor. I cant even think of 300 flavors as a longtime cook, and for vanilla extract that’s 299 too many. If your vanilla tastes like 300 things, you fucked it up. That’s not something to brag about. That absurdity notwithstanding, I just hate the pretentiousness of saying ‘flavor notes’ or worse ‘flavor profile’. Its cop talk for fucking ‘flavor’. Just say flavor, the extra words are useless

Feels bad, feels very bad. I once again have to walk on egg shells when discussing politics around my friends because most of them are in “defend democrats at all costs” mode
Not great
USian socialists need to work “deep state” into their vocabulary. Its not to hard and applicable to most things as a replacement for capitalism, and there are known ghouls that can be used as representation. And with the Epstein shit going down, the public is pretty conspiratorially minded, maybe rightfully so.
I’ve seen PYM using what might be considered “aggressive” tactics, for instance protesting at the home of an executive from Boston Consulting Group(BCG).
Appetite for revolutionary activities seems to be rising, while most things are shit it still gives me some hope
In all honesty I think all vaush, h3h3, and contrapoints discourse should be banned from this site. Pls🤞. I don’t want this place to be like r/thedeprogram
That V*ush thread where a depressed person had to deal with thst creep did remind me of a dude i used to work wirh who was on his way out when I was on mt way in to my current gig amd we had a solid comedy back and forth. Around a month after I started my best friend OD’d and I took a couple days off and when I told this guy about it he to me lol.t blank he was gonna try to be even more annoying to me this week so id have something else to thi k about and hed would constantly fake me out about work stuff or just be a silly jerk and it was one of the nicest things anyone has done for me. He k me exactly what he needed to do at that time cl sideline g our relationship as co-workers who got into a good joking around thing. I have no idea where thst guy is now but on thar day he did the exactly correct thing for me
Resident alien is good thanks for people who recommended it
My lib dad is texting me AI slop YouTube videos of Trump. Please make it stop.
I definitely put waaaay too much onion in this chili i’m making. I threw in a fist sized glob of heavily caramelized onions and then i realized “wait that’s half of an entire bag of onions”
oh shiiit 5 years? Kinda of wild to think about
They gave Reed Richards the same moral dillema as Joel Miller (your child or the world) lol Pedro Pascal is only allowed to play one guy.
