The Dredge Tank. For posting all the low tier reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else. Got some bullshit from Reddit with 2 upvotes and want to share, post it here.

This community was created with the purpose that Rule 8 fans will just block it.

The rules are literally The Dunk Tank's rules, just without rule 8.

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.

How much time do they think we spend fucking around with pronouns?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Projection. They assume that everyone else obsesses about pronouns as much as they do.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How an actual pronoun interaction goes: "you go by she/her?" "Yeah, or they/them." "Okay cool."

Time spent: 5.2 seconds

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Time that interaction spent loving rent free in this guy's head: undefined

I think chuds work themselves tired about pronouns because it's that unbearable for them to hear a preference, accept it, and just use it.

Chuds work themselves tired because "they them planets"

I work myself tired because ADHD storm

How do those suits handle? It would be impressive if the engineers at SpaceX managed to make a comfortable, maneuverable suit that works for a while and is that slim.

If they're like most Le Epic X In Logo products, probably style over substance and primarily intended to look futuristic over being practical and safe. I don't know for certain, but chances are that stripping away all the failsafes and fallback protections of old NASA spacesuits may be costly someday.

Nonetheless, a hybrid EVA/IVA suit would be helpful

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

I'd rather not have the clownfoolery executive meddling and hubris-laden decisions that made the ZYBERTRUKKK what it is happen anywhere near a life-or-death system such as a spacesuit. If I was in charge of hanging out government contracts, I'd look elsewhere no matter how snazzy the external appearance.

Hate to break it to you, Musk, but the public sector had space suits... In the fucking 50s...

That's 70 years ago

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

But these ones look more bazinga and have a lot less safety features!

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

while you studied the pronouns, I mastered the bazinga

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You can rawdog space for a few minutes right?

This reminds me of some fash saying "this is why you queers will lose, because you're all too busy painting your nails."

And it's like, bro, how much time do you think that takes? blocky-wat

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

On the lighter side of the Drej Tank, while bazinga billionaires were busy jerking themselves off doing shit that was done with a tiny sliver of the computing power half a century ago, the Drej mothership breached the Global Defense System. Congratulations!

Please remind me, who funds E-L-O-N-S "private" endeavors again?

Shuttles that leak piss. Cars that don't work in the cold and catch on hard to extinguish fire. A Truck that crashes on its own and cuts your fingers off. Destroying Twitter.

I was more going for that he's receiving billions from the US government and has contracts with various government agencies, while calling it "private sector". But this works too.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

Bruv the only one obsessed with pronouns is you. Mandem be under the covers with a flashlight telling spooky stories of pronouns.

Wait did melon into space or something

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

As always, no.

His underpaid, overworked, and undercredited workers did something, even if that something's a repeat of the 1950s, now with more bazinga and more profits.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He's at the very least smart enough to not get onboard his own space crap.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

At least NASA isn't busy with blue hair! That'd especially be very unproductive of them!
