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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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!

oh, I only saw the one post about it and no one had mentioned it was a porn bot. I thought it was just some stupid image elon had generated. I don't reward clickbaity headlines with clicks until I know theres something worthwhile in them.

Seems like a self defeating strategy, but you do you.

Anything that keeps hack journalists from getting paid is a winning strategy.
