Oh god lol. I haven't told anyone I know in real life about this website.

    I just tell people who see me on my phone with the Lemmy UI open that "I'm chatting with people on the internet", and leave it at that lol. I think most people I know have already figured out that I'm some sort of godless socialist, or something along those lines, from my opinions on domestic and international affairs. I don't talk about it often, but when I do I lay it out pretty plainly.

    yes, even my son has heard of Hexbear

    Bwaaa

    Your son knows about this place? Is he old enough to fully understand that we're some sort of esoteric political forum, or something like that?

    he's a senior in high school, which makes me officially Old

    he knows this is the commie hangout where I find memes and great trans resources and news to be mad at

    Torn between badposting for that user who told their therapist about hb and good posting for when your spouse joins

    it was tales of the misogyny struggle session plus having a long and through answer to someone's diy question that finally got him to make an account

    That's exciting. We joke about this place being cringe, but honestly it's one of the healthier communities online.

    Does your spouse know your account or will you delete this post to hide the evidence?

    realistically, his activity level will probably be much more like your partner's than mine. he's way too obsessed with his tractor groups and nobody here cares about tractors like that because why should they 😂

    there are enough people here who like tinkering on things and like vintage machinery, though, that I think he will find some friends. ❤️ plus he's a musician and there are a few of those here, too! 😉 he will want to hear your music and chat about your historical influences and who you're listening to now.

    i dodged out of explaining to my girlfriend what hexbear is for now, but seems like I'll have to reckon with this sooner than I'd hope for

    whispers of the machine is a pretty good game if you're into that sort of thing
