If you want to be free to post bigotry as long as you use polite-sounding language and write long posts, Reddit and HN will be glad to have you.

It's not alt accounts; you just wandered into the wrong bar to go picking fights with communists and trans people.

Tulip poplar. Such a good tree. Grows fast and big, makes a soft but fine-grained hardwood.

I love the Eastern Hemlock, Tsuga canadensis. It's an important part of Appalachian forests, and is threatened by climate change and an invasive insect.

One Hungarian source I read said that the Ukrainian defense ministry has said they are afraid the POWs will "be used for Russian propaganda", which is to say, they will tell the truth about being forced into the army and given poor support.

I hope Orban steps on a Lego, but I bet these guys are really grateful to be in Hungary right now.

I totally realize most people are going to disagree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing the sub for a joke wasn’t a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how the sub is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support without warning was not okay.

You can say I’m being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love the sub and I love this community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and this sub is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn’t a good feeling to find the sub closed for the sake of irony. Maybe that’s laughable or pathetic. But for me, it’s true.
