    They say that Hexbear only has enough keyboards for half of its posters, so they send people into threads in pairs, and when the first poster is banned, the second picks up his keyboard and continues posting bugs-stalin

    It was back on reddit, during the US election. When Trump seemed to be pulling ahead and r/neoliberal was in doomer mode I went and posted a picture of Lenin titled "Where did that bring you? Back to me."

    Predictably I got banned, but I did double dip and post the screenshot to chapo.

    I was homeless at the time and it really brightened my day

    Literally every single removed post for revealing the boundaries of speech on the website. Showing you all what's safe to say and what's not. I'm effectively a minesweeper dying over and over so that you may flourish safely on this website. You're welcome.

    I'm a posting anti-natalist. I'm deeply ashamed of every single time I forced a bad comment to exist. I sincerely hope I'll never succumb to making another comment.

    There was a post about the highest point in Iowa and I said "it's all downhill from here" and it only got a few upvotes. My genius went unappreciated sadness

    Then there was the time I commented on reddit about how Nazis and transphobes deserved to be cyberbullied, and the reddit-logo admins deleted my comment and gave me a warning for it, which automatically turned it into a based comment.

    All of them. Every bit I've ever posted or will ever post is perfect just the way it is, and nobody will tell me otherwise.

    I made a joke about having diarrhea for two weeks and it got deleted by the mods.

    To post hard enough to take friendly fire is a mood.

    Years ago their was a stupid reddit sub where people would staple bread to trees... So quirky amirite? Anyway, I see this sub pop up in /all, some dingus posts "communist bread" and it's just a tree... lol le starvation, 100 godzillian ded ensues.

    I just said something like 'yeah, under communism the bread is distributed and someone ate it instead of wasting food by doing something so stupid as stapling it to a tree.'. Ratioed the post and all the comments.

    Another time I called some cracker what he was and he started to seethe hard and posted his rage. So I start spam replying "chicken in a biscuit", "Ritz", "Club", "Saltine", etc. ad nauseum, 🍘 emojis too. Got an admin suspension for that one. Replied and told them to eat my ass. They didn't care apparently and my suspension expired at the set time. Might log back on some day and go nuclear with cracker posting.

        I always encourage anyone who has the desire, time, and/or motivation to work on sketching/doodling! As someone who is trying to pursue art semi professionally I’m not that good lol, but what skill I have has been built through almost pure time and repetition more than anything. In the wise words of a cartoon dog, "Sucking at something is the first step towards being sorta good at something."
