Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Edit: I realised that I spelled Pissingers name wrong in the title. Pity.

While I was putting my son to bed I had the beautiful thought that he won't have to grow up in a world with Henry Kissinger in it

Wish I could admit to something cooler but I was watching Harry Potter with kiddo (I've really tried...he's into it though through my ex tho).

I can happily say however that we paused the movie and proceeded to dance around the house at the joyous good news. He's recording it in his diary now!

Also;

The idea of a small child recording a war criminal's death in their diary is making me laugh 😆

[–] Ericthescruffy@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago

Lolol....He's a child and honestly has little context for any of it...he just knows he's asked me if there are any real life supervillains/sith lords in real life and I've told him "well....there is Henry Kissinger...."

[–] GreenTeaRedFlag@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

It's okay for your kid to like it, as long as they outgrow it at some point.

I was playing Minecraft and didn't believe my friend after he messaged me. Was certain he unlocked immortality.

I was editing a fantasy erotica story I wrote like three weeks ago.

Listening to the Guts theme on my phone, pacing around the room with Hexbear on one tab and an algorithm programming assignment on the other. High as fuck. I can feel the packwatches increasing on the daily and finally feel like I have a soul again. Good times

I was high in bed listening to krautrock.

Just getting out of a Taco Bell drive thru after work. The DJ at the local college metal show announced it then started playing Peace Sells by Megadeath.

Listening to the Clash, was damn poetry to see those notifications roll in with such a glorious soundtrack (Kingston Advice from Sandinista!)

Okay so I was laying in bed with my wife, browsing fucking /pol/. I wanted to see what the world's largest population of brainworms is saying nowadays. Mild psychic damage, and the result is that some anon on /pol/ informed me that Henry Kissinger died. I thought they were trolling.

[–] Orannis62@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

I was showing my gf Children of Men

Love that movie but fuck if this isn't the best palate cleanser from that bleakness

Sitting down after work with my cat. Let out a huge laugh at the news which scared her.

[–] anonochronomus@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

I frantically rode my bike to the corner store 5 minutes before it closed to grab a drink to celebrate, now I can listen to the Wailers and revel in a small victory that required nothing of me but the passing of time.

On the bus home from work, rattling by the public hospital.

At a restaurant for my friend’s birthday when my partner got the NYT alert. I may have double-fist-pumped and yelled “rest in piss” a bit too loud

Playing Horizon: Zero Dawn.

I was being texted by my undergrad assistant that rats didn’t get fed, it was honestly distracting
