Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I'm less concerned about dumping the dead bear in Central Park than I am with the decision making to even have a dead bear to dump.

His friend hit it with her car, and he decided he wanted to take the body home and cut it up for meat.

The decision to get out of your car and start fuckin' with the dead bear cub's body, just assuming that it has no family in the area, seems to me like honestly the most serious mistake of the entire bad idea adventure.

Okay but to me that falls apart when it’s followed up with ‘oh I have a flight to catch I better just dump it in central fucking park’

If you knew there were plans you can’t miss, you definitely don’t have time to dress and butcher a bear.

Guy’s friends we’re all drunk but he super defininitely wasn’t? Was one of the drunk friends driving?

Are we sure his "friend" isn't just him?

[–] PythagreousTitties@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

His worm friend.

[–] clgoh@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

Possibly getting brain worms might be the worst part.

Im flabbergasted about needing to put a bicycle next to it for some reason. They added that to their "plan".

These people were also full grown 60 year old adults.

Bicycles: notorious bear killers.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

The whole thing is a remarkable string of bad decisions. I'm a little impressed.

One of his hobbies when he was younger was hanging out with his hawk (who may or may not have been trained to kill cops) next to a pit full of rotting cow carcasses. It blows my mind that anyone would consider someone this unhinged a viable candidate for president.
