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 /c/slop

  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

Hexbear is one of my fav instances partially because pictures of meat get nsfw tags and graphics of sex positions do not

look, you can always report them for not having a nsfw tag - my comment was actually in response to an earlier one. I'm just not gonna outright remove non-NSFW tagged posts that are just drawings of a sex position or whatnot because I don't think they're usually egregious. Obviously like a screenshot of some actual porn, fetish content, or sexual violence/abuse is a different case.

FWIW, Meat/non-vegan stuff are required to have a CW at the very least because those kind of subjects/posts fall under the site's CoC for CW/NSFW tagging whereas 'nudity' or 'sex' isn't - which is why you'll notice posts like these largely going untagged whereas a picture of a cake someone made with eggs will probably have one from the get-go.

From the CoC:

Content Warnings

A content warning must be placed at the beginning of a post title or directly before the following topics or depictions:

- Self-Harm including medically assisted procedures
- Suicide/Suicidal Ideation
- Violence towards humans or animals including corpses or gore. This includes animal corpses used as food, animal products, and animal abuse.
- Traumatic societal harms such as Transphobia, Sexism, Gender Oppression, Fatphobia, Lookism, Sanism, Ableism, Racism, Ageism and other bigotry.
- Weight, Eating Disorders, Calories, Ableist Slurs, Abortion, Sexual Assault, Sexual Violence, Police Brutality, Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide, etc.
- Epilepsy and Flashing Lights

So definitely report any post that touches on any of those topics and isn't CW or tagged NSFW. But also feel free to just report posts like this one if you feel it needs a NSFW tag/CW; I always try at the very least to just make a comment asking the OP to edit it and ofc will remove any posts that are really egregious & the OP hasn't responded.

Just to be clear, I wasn’t being sarcastic - I really do like that about hexbear, and I think your policy on that is really sensible.

Thanks for keeping an eye on this stuff, and for the detailed response :)
