Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
Donate the money to the food bank instead. They get much better deals then you will ever.
Yessss. In my area the food bank is basically powered by corporations donating their imminently-expiring food, rotating out the entire store. Whole Foods, Chick Fil A, WalMart, pallets and pallets of food, enough to keep a literal warehouse filled.
Gallons of restaurant soup in frozen bags straight from their supplier. 13 Dr. Peppers per person. Fuck it have 3 pounds of celery. An entire grocery bag filled with random donuts from the bakery lmao
Individuals helping is good. But in comparison, money can fund the cold storage warehouse. The reefer trucks that carry it around to distribution centers. The wages all those workers are paid. The advocacy and advertising and outreach. Money!
