Owning a picture of the Mona Lisa isn’t the same as owning the Mona Lisa :very-intelligent:

Imagine being an NFT loser and being traumatized by Star Trek because you think the characters die every time they get beamed up.

(Just to be clear, this isn’t directed at you. I’m building on your dunk.)

I think NFTs are dumb, but I also do think everyone dies when they’re beamed up.

yeah, those aren’t actually mutually exclusive. but I enjoy the idea that NFT people are essentially claiming to have effortlessly resolved one of the thorniest existential questions in philosophy by choosing an answer that makes them money today.

idk, its mentioned multiple times that you are half in one place and half in the other. if your consciousness exists in two points at the same time and can still interact with both parts, i dont think it kills you as it slowly transfers itself to one place.

I would 100% demand my lawyer seize it, unless I can let him keep it for the purpose of claiming he gets to keep a $8,000 lion jpeg, so to be fair I’ll balance it out in the divorce settlement by keeping $8,000 worth of useful shit.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
