For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
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 bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target federated instances' admins or moderators.

Here's my, I think far more sensible, view on mobility aids and disability aids in general - if it helps you, then use it. If a walking stick helps you walk more without pain, if anything meant to hold you up does its job, if any accessibility tool is useful enough to be worth its drawbacks, then use that thing and don't feel bad. If it helps you, then it's for you.
