No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I stopped looking at the news for eleven seconds, what fresh hell did I miss?

Just doing the math. Hypothetically speaking, nothing is stopping the next Democrat President from appointing George Soros to the head of DOGE.

All jokes aside

DOGE isn't a thing except in the diseased brain of Elonia Mush. It's not a federal entity of any kind.

Elonia

Please don't do this. Insulting a man by calling him a woman is just more misogyny and doesn't help anyone.

I get what you're saying, but gatekeeping bullying tactics is weird ngl

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I read it more as a lovers thing, like melonia, without the m. And trump and Elon as lovers seems about right, but it's one of those scary trailer relationships. Like, who's addiction will make who kill the other first? It would truly be some of the sickest dark fiction on HBO. Sadly it's on bbc, ap, NYT, WSJ, etc. etc.

It's a reference. Cease the pearl clutching.

Calling him a woman does nothing to insult women. Stop pearl clutching. It's an insult to the mans ego because of HIS beliefs, not ours. Buncha professional victims you lot are.

And George Soros being some kind of secret mastermind is also a right wing fever dream. Democrats wouldn't have any interest in doing such a thing

The funny thing is that so is the idea of Melon Husk being some kind of mastermind.

I am interested now! I want to see the democrats attempt to get away with this shit. I want to hear, not see, my grandmother raised from the dead to clutch her pearls if she even caught wind of such a thing.

I think you might kill every MAGA in one fell swoop from the collective gasp that depleted enough oxygen in their general vicinity so that they all died of suffocation.

Zima blue? That you? I too long for the endless hours traversing swimming pools with my purpose so defined, and my life full of meaning.

I think the point was more to make the Nazis mad?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

With the Supreme Court giving presidents immunity for "official actions" if you became president nothings really stopping you from just executing people you don't like. Installing someone like Musky? Sure, why the fuck not.

Well...let me ask you this: how attached are you to your current hairstyle?
