The prodigal daughter has returned. Last time you were here, you made me read theory, self-crit, and shot me with the gender gun and turned me nonbinary

It was the cries of wayward Hexbearians that I transed that helped me find my way back, lmao.

Thanks for having me back! Congratulations on transing your gender, comrade! It's really nice to see so many oldheads still here 😭

I very easily hold a record for most eggs cracked. Holy fuck, lmao.

Great! I was hardly a name around here when you left but I got a hamster and posted him a bunch. He passed and then I became a trans girl! biggs

Wow is that Boruto's mom's husband as a kid? Cool concept, they should make a prequel for Boruto

Pretty good. I used to think you were a bit grating and overbearing with your whole "banning transphobes and yelling at people they have to educate themselves about transness" thing, and then I recently went back and looked at old strugglesessions and suddenly i-get-it

Apart from that I'm personally doing better than ever. I've got the best apartment I've ever had, I'm exercising regularly and I live right next to a deluxe fancy bakery that doesn't lock its' dumpster, so I've got sourdough bread and cinnamon buns out the wazoo.

[–] Stalins6thResignation@hexbear.net 32 points 2 months ago (4 children)

I definitely was very overbearing but not without good reason. Constant manic episodes and the crushing weight of the momentum at which things were moving absolutely did not help that either. But now I'm medicated and the community is very pro-trans from what I've been seeing, so unless everyone suddenly becomes a massive shitlib overnight, I'd like to go back to the community organizing I did at the start of Hexbear - without the massive resentment for and anger towards the community.

Dumpster bread is one helluva vibe tho πŸ₯΅

Your decisions at the beginning really helped shape this site's culture into what it is now in the best possible way. Like Stalin, after your departure a pile of rubbish was heaped on your grave, but the wind of History sooner or later swept it away without mercy.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Banning transphobes is based as hell actually, instantly makes this one of the only good places on the internet.

[–] thethirdgracchi@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

That day was honestly so glorious. Still one of my favourite memories of this site. Waking up, seeing that anybody who upvoted transphobic shit got the boot, my goodness what a purge. So beautiful.

[–] REgon@hexbear.net 17 points 2 months ago

I really do mean that I get it now though. Having re-read some of those thread (and for anyone curious I made a compilation post) made me realise what I didn't see back then, because I used to stay out of all those discussions. People were frustratingly obtuse, and that's being generous. I definitely would have done the same, had I been in your spot. I can relate to being medicated and then looking back at previous behaviour too though, it's... it's an experience for sure.
Looking forward to experiencing your community organising.

Oh it's not just dumpster bread. They make this weird caramelized double croissant-thing. It's like crack cocaine. I'm giving out so many baked goods, partially because of course I do, but mainly to avoid clogging my arteries.

i became trans in the time since you left, thank you for fostering the community that helped me realise it and to then get on hrt

We're still working on the cracker purge, it's simply impossible to overestimate how much we value your help for this next endeavor.

Not gonna dox myself beyond just saying I served with you back in the day and I’m no longer cis. Also no longer an anarchist, not that that matters. Hope you’re doing good. I’m doing better than ever, thankfully.
