This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that the U.S. city of New Bern has removed the penis from its coat of arms.

God, Americans are such sad people.

Yeah yeah, not all of them, but prettyuch all of those with money or power

So progressive of New Bern, a transgender bear as a mascot.

Oh man - if I start spreading this around town it could be a good way to get them to put the penis back on.

Wait, they kept the coat of arms this entire time?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

"Fix" is a euphemism for "neuter."
