Hell yeah comrade I hope you can fully dive in and make it work

I think people often overestimate how hard it will be to do a thing because they know that the first time or the first step is super hard. We all know that. So they think oh shit it's so hard to do this thing there's no reason to start theres no way I could continue. But it gets easier, whatever it is. You get that momentum and you can let it carry you but you do have to start first!

I went for a few things this year but the biggest one was a co buying thing, like buying a house with comrades and living with them. I've been working on a post about it and how to do it and why you should and how it is definitely more possible than you think but the post is very long and I keep not finishing it. Someday. Maybe that dumb post is the thing I should go for it.

But I went for it and I learned a fucking ton and it worked out. I'm glad I did.

 

Know that person you saw and you were like damn they are kinda weird but they're owning that so hard they're so cool?

You could be that person if you just go for it. I don't care what it is either. It could be doing some art, or helping at a food bank, or asking your doctor about a new medication, or buying a guitar, or wearing a bowtie, or trying a new recipe, or asking your cool co workers to go grab lunch sometime, or like literally whatever the fuck you want. If it's at all safe and possible for you to do it you should just go for it.

If it's not possible or safe to go for it alone that's fine find people who wanna go for it with you and do it with them. That's what community is. You can be a part of it whatever that looks like for you.

Going for it is how we learn and grow and be better. You're gonna mess up along the way but that's cool learn from it. If you can learn and grow and be better by doing whatever thing speaks to you to go do, then you'll be in a better position to help others do the same.

And then they can do the same for others.

And those people can do the same for even more.

Before you know it the world is just full of cool fucking people being awesome and that's how we build community. This isn't some stupid individualistic nonsense about actualizing yourself and live pray love or whatever. This is you going for it and just getting over whatever is stopping you from being who you genuinely want to be, and being part of communities that do it together with you. Community isn't formed by just sitting around hoping it into existence it's formed by doing the things you want to do and doing it with others, and you can't do that if you haven't taken the first step and just going for it.

Workers do more than just work we live our lives. Go live it. Go for it. It means more than you think.

Anyway what's something you went for this year and how'd it go. What's something you still wanna go for this year, you got lots of time left. Maybe we can work together to inspire each other to be better together. Let's try it.

As a bit though.

This is your first attempt? It looks amazing even if it was your 1000th attempt

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 12 points 14 hours ago

He really skibidied that rizz in this one

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 9 points 14 hours ago

I can just catch my poop for free and look at it why would I need this

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 5 points 14 hours ago

That is classic cat behavior

 

I'm not going to either. You can't make me. I can't even imagine what it sounds like and I won't try.

 

But are you ready for misanwet? That's right we're done with dry old crusty misan and instead we're leaning into fresh new wet misan!

 

Do it. Why aren't you doing it. You don't even have to say which is which I just wanna see some heckin emoji usage on Hexchat dot chaposite today

 

DO IT. THIS IS AN AUTHORITARIAN REDFASH TANKIE ORDER YOU MUST COMPLY.

 

yea

 

I don't know why I'm surprised they don't but I really expected that maybe this time they would care even a tiny bit.

Like they kinda sorta cared a little bit about healthcare for a minute and that blew over, and then they kinda sorta cared about minority rights for longer than I expected so that was cool but these issues are actually kind of historically complex and difficult to solve so I wasn't too surprised when libs just... fucking forgot. Climate change, me too, student loan debt...all sorta kinda complex in certain ways.

But genocide is so simple. It's probably the least complicated issue that libs have ever had to confront. Bombs go out children go boom it cannot be less complicated.

And yet here we are with libs across America hand wringing about how well it's maybe not genocide and maybe it's somehow complicated and maybe we should talk about it after we defeat Trump who we're SURE will do this complicated thing we can't quite understand worse somehow.

I guess if genocide staring libs in the actual face isn't enough to get them to care a tiny itty bitty bit about maybe trying to do something good for once...is there anything that possibly could? I can't imagine much worse of a thing than literal genocide. Maybe libs are just wholly incapable of using their brains or their hearts in any capacity at all.

And if that's the case is there any hope at all? I know there is but man this moment watching this election and everyone cheering wholeheartedly for as much genocide as they possibly can might be one of the most hopeless I've ever felt

 

Bottom text.

I love turn based RPGs so what's good, what should I be getting, what's one of those games that's on such a good sale I'd be a fool to pass it up?

 

Cloud was a very funny marketing buzzword that started with a real meaning and then devolved into "connects to the Internet." Cloud based things didn't even have to do anything with the Internet for marketing wonks to pretend like being connected to the cloud meant something. Great innovation folks just throw a wifi receiver in it and call it "The Cloud" we did it wow such innovation.

AI is rapidly descending into the same thing. There was a time when "AI" was being used to refer to actual machine learning algorithms that were good enough to fool the layperson into thinking they were smart. Nowadays the word AI just means "can compute something." Does it accept an input and make a decision on that input? Call it AI! My calculator is an AI! An ebook is AI enabled because it automatically changes the page based on how long I spent on the last page! My fridge has AI because it tells me when I accidentally left it open! Wow we just put extremely basic algorithms into everything and now it's AI! We did it we revolutionized technology forever!

Anyway now it's time for the prolific posters of Hexbear to flex your Nostradamus muscles. What's the next Big Dumb Tech Marketing Buzzword going to be and why? Lay it on us.

 

On the flip side I appreciate all the free expensive alcohol I get.

 

We as leftists should be taking the moral high ground and that means we shouldn't be cursing. We should be using kinder gentler language. Therefore I propose no more shitposting. Instead we call it Buttposting. It gets the same intent across but it won't offend the sensibilities of most church ladies, a demographic I think we really need to try to capture.

Open to other suggestions too what else should we call Buttposting

 

These dudes think they're the "good guys" from that fantasy land where "good guys with guns stop bad guys with guns" BUT THEY KEEP FUCKING MISSING. How are you, a "good guy", supposed to stop a bad guy if you can't even hit anything.

Absolutely loser mentality from start to finish and these folks are proof.
