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

Party leader doubling down on it:

Leave it to the libertarians to decry kids eating quinoa and sushi as extravagant while they feast on the finest imported American brainworms.

I don't wanna be a food nerd and/or weeb, but no meat is necessary for it to qualify as sushi. The only things required are vinegared rice, nori (dried seaweed), and maybe a third ingredient that's usually vegetables or seafood. The seafood doesn't even need to be raw, like smoked salmon and tempura shrimp are very common sushi ingredients. The main thing that makes it sushi is the rice.

True, I guess I'm referring more to sashimi. Sushi is kinda treated as a catch-all in American parlance, just like sake.

Fun fact: sake just means "booze" in Japanese. It is a catchall. Bud light is sake hahaha

Still? I'm Canadian and I think everyone post silent generation understood sushi and sashimi were different things by 2010. I'm vegan and eat a LOT of sushi.

I think so, but maybe I'm too old and out of touch now edgeworth-shrug

I also have been a cook forever and generally if I'm talking about food it's with people who know what's what. So there's that too. Could go either way

Oh yeah. That's fair
