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

Instead of a worm controlling her brain its a shroom. Sadly the shroom is also massive transphobe.

Of course the mold is transphobic, the only gender it agrees with is Mold

She's so unbelievably wealthy and yet black mold. She could tear down and rebuild her house how many times and not feel it financially? I don't think it's the black mold making her a transphobe. I do think she's so transphobic she literally cares about nothing else including dying from spores

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's like an early 19th century mansion on the outside so what I think is really funny is the idea that she just had it renovated on the inside with no thoughts given as to how any of the systems of her house like heat-exchange or humidity control work or worked and now it's just moldy.

It's such a common thing with renovated old houses that they get moldy because you put in all the fancy new-schmangled insulation and such but they were built to standards of the day, i.e. leaking air like fuck. And with that amount of money it'd be so ridicolously easy to get someone who knows what they're doing to do it, but instead she opted for the McMansion-Conversion

16th century so has gone through a few renovations, as a historic building there are some pictures of renovations, blueprints, and archeological surveys publically available

Honestly if we could get more of a glimpse into her and Glinner's living situations, it would probably be the most compelling public evidence to date that transphobia actually melts your brain. You just know wherever Linehan's living these days is like a serial killer's nest.

I love how he just unironically lost his mind altogether. Wild how the transphobe brainworm ate all his grey matter and grabbed hold of the controls in there.

idk you'd have to find it on here, your search query guesses would be as good as mine

these are the black molds but where are the futures

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I'm very confused by this. She's a billionaire, it's actually unthinkable that there would be that much mold on her walls. That's just like, literally impossible. Even if she doesn't notice it, one of the people she pays to clean/cook/whatever surely would. But if this is an unedited photo (actually, hold on, maybe it's an edited photo, that might be the explanation), then I'm struggling to see what else that could be except mold. It doesn't look like weird wallpaper, it's far too uneven for that.

I think I'm going to believe the photo is edited to make it look like she has mold on her walls, at least until I see a video or some more photos from slightly different angles or whatever.

Edit: Oh. A picosecond of googling has shown me this is actually her twitter profile pic? She uploaded this herself? Well there's my theory out the window! She wouldn't edit mold into her own photo, that doesn't make sense. So very possibly indeed a full on billionaire has tons of mold on her walls? That makes no sense! That actively makes negative sense! I don't understand!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It makes sense when you realize that the ruling class are just about as deeply mentally and emotionally unwell as the rest of western society

Same reason why so many rich celebrities get DUIs when they should logically have someone to drive them

Maybe it's just like the cheese thing.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Please explain the cheese thing

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Some cheese is made deliberately using molds.

Black mold wouldn't do that. It causes pulmonary issues but not psychological ones: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12016-017-8601-z
