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

Christ... Thanks Biden for your version of "thoughts and prayers."
Just as fucking worthless as the typical Republican response to our suffering.
One thing is a platitudinous phatic expression and the other is legitimate mental health advice.
Like seriously, how do you think "Be there for each other, don't be afraid to reach out to others, and remember that you're not alone" is vapid advice?
Because the problems people are having are not purely emotional family stuff that can be hugged out. It's shit that we need the government to actually act on, not just give us some bullshit feel good reply about sunshine and rainbows.
And has he taken action on problems that people are facing? Is he never allowed to talk about anything other than what's on your secret list of valid topics?
