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:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...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!

It's simple.

The perfect and unattainable solution is the preferred one, despite nobody even being able to agree on what it is, let alone acknowledge that it's impossible.

But it's still the perfect solution, so anything else is admitting fault, failure, and trying to move forward in reality.

And nobody wants to acknowledge that they live in reality.
