I don't mind the general hexbear ideology in itself. Sure. You do you.

But, damn, I see more than a few of its members just being obnoxious.

I wanted to raise my son with the understanding and patience that I was never afforded as a kid.

He is kind, loving, thoughtful, curious, smart, creative, and so much fun! Seriously, everyone loves him.

I defend him. I ask him questions. I encourage him to think about the things around him. I apologize to him when I'm wrong. I engage in things he enjoys (even if I don't). I take time to listen to him.

A big thing I've noticed is that people (typically other men) will define male worth by their relationships with women ("no gf", "kissless virgin", etc.). Maybe it's supposed to be a joke, but it really has evolved past that and engrained itself as a rotton seed in the minds of young men. Why do y'all think the rise of incels and aggressive, posturing adult men is much more prominent now?

Change up shitty masculine "values" and normalize kind, thoughtful, and caring men. Strive to also become one yourself and lead by example.

"But they're pro-LGBT!!"

Okay. But: have you seen everything else they post..?

They can have their space. Fine. But I haven't seen a lotta users from there acting particularly civil out in other instances.

I think this place might be too small for catch-all posts.

Just feel free to post a thread asking questions specifically about what you're looking to learn/accomplish. I'm sure folks would be happy to answer!

Seconding Subnautica.

It was one of the few games I've played where I felt sad finishing it.

The sequel does not have the same vibe, though, so be aware of that. It's an okay game, but it definitely misses the vibe the original.

I sure am addicted to being able to function normally every day.

I mean, sure, but..

I've now seen one person complain about it.

I only used 3rd party apps to navigate, so it was never an issue.

Sounds like Reddit's solution for a barking dog is to run it over with a steamroller.

I've never seen this be an issue for anyone.

You're able to fuck around and get into shenanigans with taunts and stuff. It's not all just competitive, so I think that giving the option to goof around is great!

Since the game doesnt take itself too seriously, it lends the opportunity to play however you want. It's neat!

The art-style and character designs has also aged super well, too.

There's a lotta tech-folk on Lemmy. It's really nice when people are eager to lend you their knowledge instead of berating you for not knowing!

I help with a Discord server.

People don't fucking read. 🫠
