I’ve been on an unintentional break from hexbear over the past 10 months since the redesign broke it on my phone and school started. But I have a new phone now, so what’s been happening? Are we finally blocked by everyone except lemmygrad? Any new struggle sessions? Fill me in!

The olive oil struggle session was so funny. More theory came up on that than most posts on the site

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I still can't believe there was an argument over fucking olive oil.

Like the indoor cats vs outdoor cats and stacking rocks were pretty incredulous, but come on how do you end up on the wrong side of the olive oil argument and still double down when proven wrong.

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 23 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I’ll still never forgive the morons who insist on stacking rocks after I demonstrated the many ways it is objectively bad for the environment. Like I thought I was making a friendly PSA to help give a quick tip on how to help people who didn’t know they were disturbing fragile ecosystems

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 19 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Can I stack rocks if it's the chunks of asphalt and concrete from decaying infrastructure, or is that forbidden as well?

[–] liberaldeathsquads@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (3 children)

I would say making any physical contact with grass is bad. People should be confined to the arcology until we digitize our minds into a single hivemind and become transhuman.

Hexbear: not touching grass is praxis

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago

You should make as much contact as possible with nonnative grasses in order to eliminate them from the environment.

You know what you need to do to stack rocks, or have an outdoor cat, or go shooting a Tsesarevich?

You have to go out.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago

or go shooting a Tsesarevich?

Oh yeah I forgot about that one

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

Yes you should stack those actually

[–] sgtlion@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Cause it obviously wasn't that simple.

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It is obviously that simple. No need to rehash this. The science is that stacking rocks is bad. I made the post because the science is that stacking rocks is bad. The national parks ask people not to stack rocks. Every scientist who works in the field knows stacking rocks is bad.

To argue it isn’t that simple is straight up climate change denialism levels of ignoring science.

[–] sgtlion@hexbear.net 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

I'm certainly not rehashing or arguing either way. But if it was 'obviously that simple', it wouldn't have made for a silly struggle session.

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 3 points 5 months ago

It was obviously that simple, that’s why it made for a ridiculous struggle session

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Not trying to restart a struggle session, but I completely missed the stacking rocks argument. Can someone give me a quick rundown on why it's good/bad?

Damn, I should get a medal for being present for that one.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

lmao that one was also my fault

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 14 points 5 months ago

I mean I was the one who brought up Mao, I can't say I'm not proud of it lol

[–] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago (2 children)

[–] emizeko@hexbear.net 7 points 5 months ago
