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!

This reference may or may not be before your time .. forgive me, I've seen this before.

Think of it as "Eternal September" and you'll be able to take it in your stride .. brace yourself, this is going to happen more and more, at least for a while.

To be fair, I'm only noticing because I've switched to Voyager and it shows which accounts are newer, but there's a ton! My instinct is to think troll farms. But, I'll be happy to live in an eternal September.
