Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

If someone gave him a brickin' early on in life, we wouldn't be here. Just enough to slow home down a little, nothing grave, take a few points off his IQ

He doesn't have a few IQ points to spare!

That’s how you split timelines, then before you know it, everyone’s fucking their aunt.

I think you need to spend less time on Pornhub.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

It was a DarK reference.

[–] Dressedlikeapenguin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not sure on the reference, but I'd risk it

Thanks! I need to go back to finish the series

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

100% worth it. And the moment you’re done, you’ll want to watch it again to try and untwist your mind. Best series in ages, imo.

This sounds very "Robert Evans"-y to me.

[–] Dressedlikeapenguin@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I did miss the attribution, my apologies. It is Robert Evans.

[–] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago

Haha, no worries. It just sounded like something he said awhile back or would say and I wasn't sure. It is nice though to see him popping up here though

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

On the other hand, baby Trump brains splattered over a crib sounds pretty sure fire. If only

[–] Dressedlikeapenguin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's too old testament for me. Specifically these instances. The author's "explanation" at the end is way off, but it is a good collection otherwise.

[–] Dressedlikeapenguin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It's nice finding another listener. All the Cool Zone Media peeps are great, too
