It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

honestly, maybe im old as fuck, but a very short walk outside even in extreme heat feels great on my bones and is refreshing.

Honestly I'm a large guy, I totally get it. That's what skybridges and underground cities are for!

And many many more! Sure they can be a little sterile and many are public-private partnerships disgost but they can be a great tool in fighting some of the effects of climate change I think.

walking is boring af and takes far too long to get anywhere. fuck 15 minute cities give me a 1 minute city.
