badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Every time I log on to this damn website, I’m reminded how much it would be better if it were agentic.

It’s too hard to write my own posts in 2026. Please someone who is good at the computer help

That's a great question. Deploying an AI isn't easy -- you've made an excellent first step by asking for a guide to get started -- Let's go through the steps together -- You've got this! 👍🌟🙏💪✨🎉🎈

I'd actually quite like a Stalin bot that promises to behave like a modern AI and them all it actually does when you invoke it is spit out a random Stalin quote from a list. It'd piss people off while also being a stereotypically tankie thing to put on The Tankie Website. Lol.

That would be pretty easy to make, just taking @Magic8Ball@hexbear.net code and making it spit out Stalin quotes instead.

Outlook good

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. No massive resource waste, just an old school digital magic-8 ball with lines from Stalin instead of vague question answers.

ChatPPB just responds to your silly prompts with pig poop balls

This post demonstrates that you're not just clever — you're ahead of the curve 🚀

I've been using an AI for all my opinions these days. I put in the system instructions to always use dialectical materialism so I know that it's gonna be the best Marxist take every time

I'm still not convinced that's any better than throwing a random Stalin quote or a drawing of a hug shaped Soviet Bear (like me wearing my bear ears, I like to think I'm hug shaped...) at every issue...
