omg 😍 the delicate petals, their layout, their brilliant color versus the throat and stamens and pistil - this is one of the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen!

Thank you for posting, this is truly, truly amazing!

It can be used as a synonym for both sturdy and fat, depending on context.

"Sizes 38-60" probably denotes waist or hip measurement

Modern sizing for ladies' dresses and pants (00 - 20s) is not a direct measurement

Somehow a space ended up in your link for me on Connect - going to try making one here

 

Comments where I'm tagged instead of directly replied to aren't showing up in my inbox.

These screenshots are from my the_itsb@hexbear.net account, but I'm using this one to report since this instance isn't federated with Hexbear.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help figure it out! Thanks again for Connect.

I genuinely don't understand why this person is complaining about wild leftist posting when midwest.social is also an explicitly leftist server. Maybe I'll come to eat my words, but I really don't think you guys are that out of pocket, and there's usually just as much effort-posting as PPBs. I just don't see the problem.

Edit: the_itsb@hexbear.net has been created - that instance is hopping, I will not miss the party πŸ₯³

May your relationship with alcohol remain as healthy as your posting, which is fit as fuck.

Ikr, I got to that last sentence and was impressed! Especially after the preceding paragraph. Great stuff.

Where does MLK fit in there? He may not have literally used lib as a slur, but he wasn't shy about seeing them as an impediment to progress.

Were you a redditor? If so, you might remember r/chapotraphouse getting banned - they had been quarantined for quite a while before that, so they were ready to migrate when the ban came down. Idk if Hexbear is the first/only place they went or just where most ended up, but it's definitely the same vibe as the subreddit, with a little bit of discord thrown in with the emotes.

I will admit to being not the most observant person - especially as I'm in the process of switching medical providers right now, so I'm between ADHD prescriptions and definitely not as with it as I could be! - but when I poked my head in over there, I saw fellow anarchists posting, so I had consequently dismissed people saying they were churning out "CCP talking points." It mostly seems to me they churn out bullying - for everyone to the right of Bernie Sanders (which I mostly approve of, or at least find amusing). And Pig Poop Balls, of course. What did I miss?

I'm sorry about the parental alienation you and your children have suffered, that's terrible for everyone.

Not even my own father cares. He happily continues to see his grandkids because he doesn't want to "take sides."

I'm confused why you wouldn't want him to see them. Isn't in your best interest to have people who love you and think you're a good dad in your kids' lives? Somebody to counter the alienating narrative in whatever ways they can?
