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

Bit idea: start prefixing every major historical event with "the first". e.g. "The first 9/11" "the first capitol insurrection" "the first COVID pandemic." That way history books will be ready when they happen again.

The first 9/11 was in Chile.

I get this feeling a lot when I read about a historical event. I want to tell everyone about it.

You guys would not believe happened to King Edward V of England.
