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!

As a Michigander I declare Illinois is now South Michigan

As a fellow statesman, I would like to propose that we ready ourselves for war. Surely we can take Illinois of all places, right? Maybe we can get a Lower peninsula to go with our upper, seems like that's what happens when we get really pissed up here.
