  • Man hexbear is such a shit show. When chapotraphouse was a sub I was on there near 24/7 for like 2 years, and it was the best online experience I’ve ever had. Then they migrated over to hexbear and it’s like only the worst, most self righteous people from the community moved over. I’m literally the most left person I personally know by a wide margin, and I got called a reactionary and told to kill myself and then a mod agreed with them and banned me for a week over a blatantly pro trans comment that apparently wasn’t pro trans in the right way. Like it literally said “trans people should be able to do whatever the fuck they want with their body, I don’t care, it doesn’t effect me” and like 5 people were like “you ‘don’t care’ about trans people? Do the world a favor and fucking kill yourself, you’re literally butchering trans comrades with your comment”


  • Man, I have envisioned something like this so many times. Personally, I think communal living but with everyone having at least a room that’s entirely their own is the way to go. Ideally I’d imagine your personal room being somewhere between a bedroom and a living room, in terms of size. Big enough that you could have a few people over and retreat to your space away from the rest of your “community” comfortably. But I don’t need my own kitchen or bathroom to be honest. I live in a 1 bedroom apartment and I often think about how much if the space is wasted most of the time. I use my kitchen for maybe an hour per day. 10 single apartments could share 3 kitchens without running into issues. Even if people tend to cook at approximately the same time, if anything that would probably make parts of cooking easier (though to be fair it’d also make parts harder). 1 person can stir while the other cuts vegetables, cook 2 servings of rice once instead of each cooking their own serving and washing their own pots/rice cooker/utensils. I often end up throwing away food because as a single person it goes bad before I can use it all. I’d love to have someone use this half a bag of cheese I needed for pizzas that’s gonna go bad before I get to it.
