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

Surprisingly I think his latest three kids have a Punjabi grandfather on their mother's side (assuming he used her eggs, there's some discussion about whether he did or didn't)

HEY MUSK WHATS THE NUMBER ONE REASON MILLENNIALS AND ZOOMERS AREN'T HAVING KIDS.

I'LL SPELL IT OUT FOR YOUR DUMBASS: TAKING ALL THE MONEY FROM SOCIAL WELLFARE AND GIVING IT TO YOU FOR YOUR UGLY TRUCK

It's become my solemn duty to point and laugh every time I see a Cybertruck

There are too many here, but I still do it

Laughter is the best medicine

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unless you actually need medicine

Then medicine is the best medicine

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

True. I guess the true order is Medicine is the best medicine. Probably followed by weed. Followed by laughter. Followed by hanging out with a dog. Followed by one of those forearm sized burritos from a taco truck.

This makes sense

I got sent home with acetaminophen and ibuprofen when I got my gallbladder removed

Thank God I had a bunch of edibles or I would have been in some serious pain

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Those medicines really work best when combined with a whole routine that sometimes after a surgery you are just too tired to keep after rigorously. A strategic edible deployment can be a godsend to fill in that gap.

No no by being more cruel to the working class and especially to feeemales they will accept peasant wife status and become broodmares yet! up-yours-woke-moralists

Don't forget all the money taken from a just and sustainable energy transition and given to him for his giant exploding rocket!

Elon posting a meme about parents who mistreat their children

I can’t believe people will let a guy who disowned his kid over being trans (in no small part for teh lulz to get le interwebz approval) is the one lecturing people about kids.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

huh, I thought she disowned him (emancipated I think is the legal term)

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

She disowned him in part because he had a histrionic public meltdown when she came out, which included deadnaming her and saying "my son is dead."

Elons mum replying to a post by Elon about mistreating children wonder-who-thats-for

Is Elon trying to appeal to the generationalism redditors again? Doesn't he realize they've all decided he's not wholesome chungus le epic billionaire anymore?

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

You know when a car has a fucked up tire and it's wobbling and sometimes it wobbles too much and you'll think it's about to fly off but then it wobbles back on track and the crisis is averted for 2 minutes so you start to ignore the root of the problem again?

That tire is Elons brain wobbling on and off track trying to make it work and the last bolt with any threading left is rich guy drugs.

That's why Elon Musk's supported candidate vows to undo all of the neoliberal era's gutting of social services and to return taxation levels to what they were under FDR.

Where do you think he imagines he is in this picture?

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

Clearly he's a sigma male who exists outside the hierarchy

Some King Solomon-like arrangement of broodmares all around some bazinga throne.
