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

It probably differs from area to area, but look up wildland volunteer groups. At least here we have state-level ones, county and city ones, private orgs, ones devoted to specific watersheds and ranger districts, and ones that specialise in different kinds of work/seasons. With mine it's protecting a specific ranger district so you can use the web portal to sign up for patrolling individual hikes in it or for group days where we might be picking invasive weeds or rebuilding a bridge or doing a guided hike with a geologist member. Most of us are some kind of natural scientist or at least devoted naturalist so it's super fun to experience nature with passionate experts.
