dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Yeah it's Russian disinformation that I go to the grocery store and cabbage literally costs $8 randomly. This is what comes of your JIT economics.

  1. No storage to level prices, leading to something of a rolling brownout on groceries.

  2. It gives companies way more leverage when they can arbitrarily withhold stock to control prices, something EVERY COMPANY DOES AND ADMITS TO.

Huh? You want this cabbage? No no no, it’s 30 seconds past due. It spent several days if not weeks being perfectly edible in a shipping container and will continue to be edible for at least a few more days, but we have to incinerate it.
