Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Because standing still and smiling for sterile, posed photos for 5 minutes is fucking annoying, especially when people become irritated because you won’t or can’t smile big enough or look happy enough for their precious photos.
I don’t give a fuck about the fake generational wars or whatever. But millennials and everyone older seem to be whipped into wanting everything to look so perfect. And for the record, I am a zoomer and none of my friends or colleagues are interested in these big group photos outside of a couple during an even, and usually they have no problems with it being imperfect. Everyone else is obsessed.
A few photos make sense, but how does anyone feel any sort of emotion from a dozen of these fake ass photos? I would be completely okay if you candidly took photos of me falling asleep on the couch or looking silly while biting a piece of food because there’s at least some authenticity there.
