So last week I broke my wrist. I naively thought work would cover my wages because I am full-time, have full benefits, and work for a fortune whatever company. It's a fucking grocery store.

Turns out I have to submit a form to get paid. No one told me this, so I did not get paid today. I was going to be late on rent because I don't make enough, but now I don't think I can make rent at all. I'm so close to just getting in contact with some travelers I know and checking out. I gave it a go right? But I don't want to. I want to live a quiet life with a little apartment, no kids. Just let me have a studio and a fulfilling job.

I take a lot of pride in my work. It's simple. I'm a produce clerk. But I work for a big company, and they do as they do. Nothing is good enough. Nothing we do is good enough. So my pride is gone. I come in, work, go home. I do not care. I wanted to be management. No way in hell.

I'm exhausted, comrades. I don't know what to do.

I'm proud of you! I think I am very socially awkward but after I ended my last toxic relationship people have been coming out of the woodwork and people actually like me! It has gotten to be a bit much to be honest.

Best of luck, comrade.

Pride Gear? (hexbear.net)
 

This may be the wrong comm. Sorry if it is.

I recently misplaced my pride lanyard, along with my keys. The keys have been replaced. I'd like to buy something pansexual-themed, as that is how I identify. Does anyone have any good sources for such things? I found a seller on Etsy that sold chainmaille pieces (I used to make them), but my order was cancelled. I assume the shop is defunct. A lanyard isn't necessary, but something subtle that I can wear at a major grocery chain would be good. We're allowed a little personal expression.

Shipping in the US is a requirement.

Thank you all for your suggestions! If I remember, I'll let you know what we pick.

I suppose I mean anything 80s and older.

 

I've got a friend coming over in a couple days and we decided we were in the mood to watch some old fashioned sci-fi. Or, something newer would work as well. I'd like to find something with a leftist bent, but I'm unsure where to start, or what's out there. I've never been a big movie buff.

Suggestions?

It seems a lot of people I know are going through it right now. I have no way of knowing what you go through, as my situation is vastly different. I'm in no position to help and don't know where you are exactly (nor do I need to) but I'm in central Florida. Feel free to reach out if you ever want to talk.

Haven't read the comments, but the biggest problem I had was inability to orgasm, with both an SSRI and an SNRI. I could do it sometimes myself if I was alone, but the fact that I couldn't at all during sex was hurting my relationship at the time. Other than that, they did the job. I may be about to have to go back on something as my mental health has been concerning of late as well.

 

Just need a little help between checks. I could use some not-ramen, and I need some hair ties.

Thank you all! It's raise season so with any luck I'll have to post here less!

You've gotten upbears but I wanted to specifically say this was a good one. I chuckled.

[–] isame@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago

No shit! Between food and rent I can barely make it.

Surely they signed an extremist non-compete.

Well that seems... not ideal.

Apparently he had his gun drawn so he could use the attached flashlight. I'm not a gun person but doesn't that mean the safety wasn't engaged? Why would you disengage the safety if you're just using the flashlight? Anyway that wall was a terrorist.

Woo! High score! We're number one!

Excuse me while I quietly cry in the corner.

At one point in my life I was doing a lot of intravenous oxycodone et al. I loved pushing my limits and was very good at it, apparently. At one point, and this wouldn't be the last time but was probably the first, I put about 130mg of oxycodone into one needle. I remember getting tunnel vision and a rushing sound in my ears. I woke up several hours later. A few months later I decided to look into those symptoms. Basically early onset overdose. Those were interesting times for me.

 

Won't say where. But I saw one of you fuckers in public today. Trenchcoat with hammer and sickle patches, free Palestine shirt, long hair and shit kickers.

I was preoccupied, but hi comrade!

The N Word (hexbear.net)

Good attention grabber huh? Don't worry, I don't use it and I'm not trying to say I should.

I recently hung out with my neighbors. They really wanted to smoke me out. I'm 32 living in what is essentially off campus student apartments. 4 bed 4 bath, etc.

They're all Hispanic in this apartment (above me). 2 are from South America - I forget which country - and 2 are from South Florida.

They throw around the N word, never pejoratively. As the only white guy in the room I'm not saying shit.

Question is, is this okay? As a white guy idk.

One of them also said the f slur for gay people and immediately apologized - 'sorry if that offended you '. That one I did tell him he knew it was wrong because he apologized immediately. I have a love always wins bracelet and a rainbow lanyard, very visible.

I'm 10+ years older than these kids. I'm honestly trying to figure out if this is baked-in or if they're just dumb kids and maybe I can be a positive influence. If it's baked-in then I'll just peace out. I don't know the culture and don't want to judge from an uninformed perspective.

 

I don't mean to unnecessarily gender this discussion. Gender here doesn't matter. But I'm going to use gendered words as they fit the context. I want everyone's opinion.

My dad died from bronchial cancer two days before my 12th birthday. I had to learn how to be a 'man' from my ill mother.

What I want to know is, if you had to import some wisdom to preteen me, about the fundamentals of life, what would it be?

I've barely learned to shave (and prefer a beard anyway). What can you teach me Hexbear?

I'm 32 by the way. I'm just curious.

 

I like video. I can't help that I'm from the YouTube generation. Please suggest good commie YouTubers.

Theory, news, etcetera.

 

I'm a baby leftist and still learning. You keep using this phrase. I'm sure I live in it but I'd like to know what Hexbears define as the imperial core.
