Ethan Klein is crashing out on instagram about Hasan instead of enjoying his 40th birthday ๐Ÿ’€ in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

granted my only exposure to this clown is via the Hasan and Sam Seder "debates" but I genuinely can not understand how this guy has fans. did he used to be a completely different person or something?

chuds mispronouncing Iran is so funny because it's not even consistent. they call the country "EYE RAN" but then they call Iranians "uh-rain-ians". mfer you just changed both syllables and it's still wrong

well you wouldn't want to burn your tongue on a hot pair of dice, now would you?

THEY KNOW! THEY FEAR! in c/main@hexbear.net

most of them have, for example, never actually met a transgender person, and most likely never will

they very well may have, but that person is in the closet because it's unsafe to be openly trans, especially in very conservative places

Any recommendations for neutral headphones around 100 bucks? in c/technology@hexbear.net
[โ€“] ephemeral@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

came here to say this, pretty much exactly what OP is asking for. it's a product that's been on the market unchanged since 1991 because it's industry standard

the only drawback is that the cord is not detachable, and there is only a coiled option. some people even make detachable cable mods and sell them. I don't know why Sony doesn't do this themselves, or at least offer a straight cable version

my take on the Commiefornia flag in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

hmm is that a video game reference? well you should know that all gaming is illegal in the CSR, so enjoy your stay at Alcatraz

my take on the Commiefornia flag (hexbear.net)
 

- originally I had the text read "Commiefornia" or "Commiefornia Republic" but that's too meme-y; I wanted an unironic take on what the flag of a hypothetical communist state of California would look like

- changed the white to gold because it's the golden state, also communism (duh)

- I just copied the red and gold hues from China's flag because they look good together, but that might be too derivative

- The hammer and sickle is more akin to the Soviet version, I just grabbed an svg from the internet

- changed the bear's dark brown to black and the light brown to a different dark brown. looks sicker that way. also made the text black

- simplified the grass patch to be one solid color because it's cleaner

as a bonus here's my original hand-drawn "Commiefornia" sketch. I was too lazy to detail the bear but I liked it enough to create the vector version seen above

Hey look, it's Contrapoints' car. (cw visual allusion to Confederate flag) in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

this has to be a prank right? I find it hard to imagine anyone putting this on their own car, even as a bit. the S being a dollar sign (in comic sans no less) is actually pretty funny

Anyone else have really fucked up dreams but don't GET fucked up by them? in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net
[โ€“] ephemeral@hexbear.net 3 points 4 days ago

I just had a zombie outbreak dream that took place on a train but it was kinda chill because I wasn't actually present, it was like watching a movie but in immersive 3D.

but I've also had some incredibly terrifying and visceral dreams where I was trying to survive a mass shooting, those ones fucked me up bad. that and the one where I was trapped in a hedge maze with a bear. fuck that

back on hexbear and just got a dang job (hexbear.net)
 

hi comrades I've been on this site with various accounts since it was a subreddit and I've just returned after deleting my last account a few months back

some time ago I posted about being unemployed for a long time and lacking the motivation to find work and just generally being alienated and having no direction in life. a lot of kind people had great advice, and shout out to the person in particular who suggested postal work, whoever you are! that planted the seed in my brain and the more I thought about it, the more sense it made to me. and now I've just received a job offer to become a mail carrier! I will be out in the real world, serving the public, getting exercise, and most importantly, not having to work for porky

it will be a difficult road ahead, this is a radical change in lifestyle but that's exactly what I needed and I'm looking forward to accepting the challenge

PS any advice from other postal worker comrades is very much welcome, as this line of work is very much new to me!
