Spent a morning out on the town on my day off, and everyone is just fucking buried in their phones 24/7. This realization was so absurd to me

Of course I’m not exempt from this shit, but no wonder people are having so much trouble making friends and creating meaningful relationships in this day and age. So fucking bleak

    I think so too, and judging by the "no veggies at dinner, no bedtimes" outbursts that blow up around here sometimes, Hexbear isn't immune to it either.

      Do people on Hexbear post that stuff unironically? I think I've only seen it dunked on.

        Not in those exact words, no, but one example I can immediately think of was the cairn struggle session where some contrarians said they'd be pleased to stack rocks (at the expense of local environments and their ecosystems) just to stick it to the "scolds" was in the same spirit, just spiteful petty bullshit for freedom's sake. joker-amerikkklap

        The "homework is slavery" struggle session was particularly embaressing.
