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!

Huge B5 fan, but I'm drawing a blank. Trump is like Clark, but what else am I missing?

[–] harmsy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I remember Clark's guys faked a video of Sheridan when he didn't give them what they wanted.

Babylon 5 is happening a lot lately and its honestly impressive how much JMS got right.

Let's just hope Cheetohead doesn't leave a note that says "Scorched Earth" on his desk.

Well, by 2029 (or 2027 if Democrats retake the House and Senate), we should be getting a video of Trump being arrested by the FBI in the Oval Office.
