By no means a comprehensive list (there's so many of you I want to put in here but I can't think of your name :agony-soviet:) and in no particular order I love y'all :Care-Comrade:
There are so many folks who I see on this site who when I read their name I recognize them like I would a classmate or neighbor. I may not know any one of you super well, but I appreciate and root for you and every time I see y'all it makes me smile

I could keep going but I've got to stop sometime. I'm sure there's tons of other folks who's usernames I can never remember or who I assumed I've already put down, this is one hellova community :comfy:
only for stuff like this, items in terraria, and science factoids, plus I looked through my messages for folks I couldn't remember the names of
Me too, I'm feeling really confident that lots of folks will be unbanned within a week or so, already a few have been and most of the mods/admins are taking their grillpill break. Things are looking up for our little hexbear.net :sicko-crowd:
oh wtf i only made it to the fourth list? this is some bullshit.
Honestly thank you so much, this made me feel really good inside, and I hope you know the feeling is absolutely mutual, you're one of those @s that I see and just think hey I know them, they're cool
hell yeah! Hearing that makes me feel good too :comfy:
back at you :Care-Comrade:
:stalin-heart: Quill love you too and think you cool and have fun talking with you.
No one sees his work for the commmunity cause its in the secret ND mod chat but ness is an absolute king
Same to @Infamousblt @SpookyVanguard64 @context @Fakename_Bill :Care-Comrade:
Aww thanks comrade, your posts make me happy too. :comfy:
I'm sure things will settle down on Hexbear soon enough. Sometimes people just need time to heal.

No question :)
Brooke's consistency with her trans appreciation posts is one of the best things about this site. If I go a day without seeing one I worry about her.
Quill you are an extremely high quality poster, one might even say...
You are the one true leftist
:Care-Comrade: :Care-Comrade: :Care-Comrade: :floppy-parrot: :floppy-parrot: :floppy-parrot:
Qomrade Quill is best Qomrade
oh no I could never do that, the self doubt would eat me alive :this-is-fine:
Oh I just realized! you're one of the folks I meant to put on the list too! You have a difficult to search for name if you don't quite remember it lol
Love you comrade :cat-trans:
all I do is long form rant about shit and struggle to stay on topic
Naw, staying on topic is for losers anyway 😎
:solidarity: I love seeing you and your posts as well.
:headpat: for all
:Care-Comrade:
There are so many folks who I see on this site who when I read their name I recognize them like I would a classmate or neighbor. I may not know any one of you super well, but I appreciate and root for you and every time I see y’all it makes me smile
This is the mood! This is why I love and root for this place, it's legitimately a community and feels like one. Really well said :af-heart:
:stalin-heart: :party-blob: Aww. Thank you Quill! You're an awesome poster!
❤️
I've never seen one of your posts that didn't make me happier.
You must have missed my Kissinger post then :sicko-zoomer:
:heart-sickle:
BrookeBaybee is a relentless font of positivity through all the tough times of this site, and always makes me smile when I see the daily trans love thread :comfy:
So many users on here post incredibly thoughtful, insightful, and informative shit - some seriously smart and well-read fuckers on here and you're great
And so many great shitposters posting the highest-quality slop - your efforts are just as important in maintaining this site as a fun place to be, o7
Special shoutout to the comrades who wade through the hell of tw*tter for our funny screenshots to dunk on, your sacrifices are not unappreciated
@QuillQuote, who never stops advocating for their comrades
@WhyEssEff who pushed my emojis through as a favor. Sad she's gone, and feel kind of bad that I chided her during the recent Veganopocalyse
@Alaskaball who helped me shitpost c/literature into being
@TransComrade69 who combats liberalism with hir every breath and still hasn't quit this site somehow
@ScreamoBMO for consistently being a calm voice of reason
@Dirt_Owl for being constantly wonderful poster
@HornyPosadist who puts themselves out there all the time
@BrookeBaybee who is just a beacon of positivity
@Rem for being both extremely horny and extremely wholesome
@Enver_Hoxha for being the greatest poster in the site's history. Just want her back :deeper-sadness:
@quartz242 for being a wonderful GM, really meant a lot
Lot's of others, but I can't type all night damnit
:this: :red-fist: Solidarity forever o7
I appreciate how you call things like you see em, can always count on you to call bullshit :fidel-salute-big:
@SorosFootSoldier Is just a swell person all around.
@QuillQuote is doing a great job in c/neurodiverse too.
And it should go without saying that @BrookeBaybee is always working hard to make everyone feel welcome and it's very appreciated :meow-hug:
Yea SorosFootSoldier is always on the new frontlines and quillquote has some banging comments
agreed, i just wrote my own about SorosFootSoldier before seeing this one. Very good person
The chape reading this.
No, really, y'all are a great bunch of people that makes me laugh and teach me shit :heart-sickle:
Let's name some:
@SorosFootSoldier @emizeko, @Cherufe, @Nakoichi, @czechvault @Civility @redthebaron
@aaaaaaadjsf @Posadas @ScreamoBMO @star_wraith @thelastaxolotl @QuillQuote @Ram_The_Manparts @PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS @Dirt_Owl @CarlTheRedditor @wtypstanaccount04 @HornyPosadistAnd the list goes on and on but the computer with the whole database of users and notes about them is in the office.
See? I told you you were awesome! may well be the most wholesome comment on the site :stalin-heart:
we all are except for @RNAi
We were programmed to amuse them and respond to their posts
I’m legit concerned that @RNAi might be the most AI out of all of us tbh.
I just... how does he post so good
I see his posts and think to myself "Maybe someday :sicko-wistful:"
:heart-sickle:
The key is the amount, and never posting OCs because nobody laughs and that hurts your feelings
I rlly tend to like most comments i see by @PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS and i think ur cool even tho i still dont know who foucault is 😞
Post modern philosopher. For sure someone worth reading. Like all post modernism I will say, they think they outsmarted Marx by just describing capitalism in its current state more while doing fuck all for modern solutions. Some had their writings boosted by the CIA cause it was left wing but not explicitly communist and often critical of communism. Basically the guys who influenced The Matrix. I'd read em but don't base your philosophy around them, it's a dead end. Good description, but nihilistic French and German people, so insufferable in a lot of ways too.
quartz i also appreciate you even if i can sometimes see 0 of your messages in modchat
I often typo and rather than fix it I just type the correct word with * next to it, also I will sometimes
type
a
sentence
like
this
its kind of annoying tbh
@wtypstanaccount04 is funny and way smarter than me about trains
I really appreciate how much love and effort @BrookeBaybee @notthenameiwant @DasKarlBarx put into cultivating their communities. Love y'all :stalin-heart:
From the top of my head:
@crime and @minilogue for helping me figure out that I probably have ADHD. Single best life advice I got in the past 5 years.
@TransComrade69 for helping create a positive atmosphere for marginalized comrades on the site. Someone described a meme about ze being atlas carrying this site on hir shoulders and they're not wrong.
@the_river_cass for giving me the courage to speak out when I see bigotry/reactionary takes on the site. She is sorely missed.
@itsPina for defending me against reactionary behavior.
@sailorfish for her effort posts on the books she's reading. Really broadened my reading list after her recommendations but I still don't know the secret to how she reads so fast while being productive lol.
@QuillQuote for being a great moderator and advocate for ND comrades. And being an all around good person.
@thelastaxolotl For his concise but informative megathread posts. His effort on keeping up the quality of posts day in and day out is commendable and as a result became my favorite part of the site.
@Fakename_Bill for always looking out for the good of the site and keeping everyone accountable.
@rozako for her great posts on the Roma and the perspective she brings to the discourse.
@BrookeBaybee for her relentless efforts to spread positivity and bloomer energy on the site.
@Wmill for the puns and the uncle energy they bring to the site.
@Alf for self downvoting.
@carlin for their awesome posts on fatphobia and masculinity.
There's more I'm missing which I'll try to add later but know that I love every single one of ya :heart-sickle:
This deserves more upbears and you deserve more upbears but can only give one
Shout out to the lurkers and the users whose names aren’t familiar. Shout out to those who comment occasionally but do not post.
Shout out to the haters and the losers.
Shout out to @rozako for the like 4 tabs I have open that I want to read.
Shout out to my friend John Kerry, who is working with business leaders all over the world to make incremental, inoffensive progress in fighting climate change, and taking the time to post here with such a busy schedule
thank you neera tanden !!!!! i’m such a big fan <3 lol jk but thank you seriously <3
Shout out to those who comment occasionally but do not post.
:red-fist: :im-doing-my-part:
Retail and complacency is shit, i was a fast food worker when I was younger and have to say working under a shitty manager made it so much worse, I lived in bigger cities so were never a lack of jobs there so had the privledge of bouncing between them
It's been a long time so I don't know how the corporate culture is these days, but a friend of mine worked at Home Depot for years and had a relatively good experience. There's also Aldi of course, they're supposed to be WAY better than most retail.
Hm, crap, that does seem like a lot. I've heard good things about working there, but I don't personally know anyone who does, so your friend probably has a more accurate view of how things really are. Maybe have a conversation with them on the pros and cons? I worked at Kohl's too, so you have all my sympathy. At least at Aldi, when you're stocking shelves you just put the box out without having to unload and arrange everything. A friend worked at Starbucks a few years ago and liked it OK (and from what I've heard, they have good benefits), so you might want to look into that. I think she sometimes had trouble getting hours though--this may have more to do with the location though, it's not a busy shop.
I'm not good at focusing on any one person but I really do love everyone here, I log on every day and see so many awesome posts, both great writeups about things like the coffee industry or the megathreads which always have some high quality post related to the date or just the leftist cause in general, or the shitposts we all know and love, or the dunk tank which always has the wildest takes and dunks and self owns. I honestly love this site so much and it's moderators who keep the wreckers out, and posters providing us with our constant slop and even the lurkers who upbear good posts.
Everyone here is amazing :af-heart: :heart-sickle: :ancom-heart:
Your love posts are always solid. They the one constant in our tumultuous time on hexbear. Very inspiring.
