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!

My wife and I recently moved to a smaller town in the Northeast from Colorado. It's been an adjustment, but honestly I've found some wonderful communities here supporting each other much more than I had out West.

This isn't to say that it's a hellhole out there. It's more that I wasn't expecting to find it here, which gave me a bit of a recheck to my thoughts on the state of things.

It also isn't perfect, but I'm not letting that bring down the hope it brought me.

Now back to being jaded 🙃
