This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Because...?

It's waking

It's cycling

It's cheap

It doesn't destroy the environment

What part of this....?

I missed that part. So that no, but the rest sounds like an actual place for human beings
