for past frustrations

they're not past frustrations. look around. In fact, look at yourself, with your "I already know what hexbears think and why without ever talking to them" dismissal. That is frustrating, right now in the present, because you don't know what you don't know. Hexbears are well-read and have detailed, serious takes, which they generally do not post outside their own instance because no one gives a shit and no one will read them. You actually can't just understand them at a glance based on vibes and some people you knew once. And it's obviously arrogant to think you can. And that arrogance is fucking frustrating, especially since you don't even realize you're being arrogant and you're bewildered that people react poorly to it.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
