No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I live in a shitty neighborhood with minimal options for kids and a lot of litter. First thing I'm doing is opening a nonprofit, daycare for kids ages 7-14. We'll focus on gaming, tabletop, and casual activity as well as local activism and civil service. We'll also teach cyber responsibility and privacy, kids are going to be on the internet more than any of us were growing up and someone needs to stop them from falling into the pipelines we did.
That would be awesome. I don't know where you live, but in the US, with everything being so car-centric, there are few activities that are accessible to kids without money and begging parents for a ride.
Talked to someone close to me about the internet thing for 2-3 hours just the other day. We can't legislate something like this, it has to be taught.
Great answer. I hope you win the lotto and can do this while living a comfortable life!
Yeah, here in south central Kansas it's particularly bad. I have 3 card shops in the area but they're all 40+min walks with the way traffic works here and our neighborhood is historically a slum. Apparently there used to be a nice park around the corner but the city took it away due to vandalism so there's a whole named park that's just an unpainted basketball court.
I've been here for almost a year and we only just found out that two of my son's class mates are our neighbors. There's just no good way for kids to leave the house here.
