Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Time to learn what you're consigning us to over your mostly trivial shit. Don't buy it before you try it!

I've heard you have to think like a criminal to catch one, but i have not heard let a criminal run your goverment to stop crime. but it really makes sense if you don't think about it, making nothing illegal would mean no more crime.

Nah, they'd focus on the important crimes, like pot smoking and abortions.

Or being the wrong color, loving the wrong person or reading the wrong books

Over all I hope our electoral college of people who we don't even know can vote for a good president for us. You know a Republic, lol. I hate kings, but random assholes chosen by random assholes are A-OK.
