Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'm selling my extra pea gravel. I'll try and get an exception for export to ruzzia if necessary. Sure gravel can be used as bullets. But I find that level of indefence acceptable.
Each 1/4" gravel piece will cost just one ruble. And the uses are endless! For example, for several billion rubles you can defend one building! Did I mention that each gravel piece is personally signed by a very hot American woman who will be completely naked while signing it and she will gently touch the tip of her blossoms on every piece before kissing it and telling it a story. Usually she will arrange several thousand pieces around her to tell the story. Usually it's a reading of an accounting book though. But she will be totally naked.
We, at my backyard pile of gravel company hope that before we run out, there will be at least one ruzzian buried several feet under each one of our beautiful gray colored pieces.
The true value of this very special gravel comes in the field! As each soldier is dropped by those pesky Ukrainians, the location can be specially marked by placing a pieces over the perished. Incredibly, you can then place one in a special counting bag. So if you count 5 pieces later in that bag, that means you had 5 perished guys. And these marker counters last for years and years! No maintenance required! It's the perfect way of saying thank you. I got at least a cubic yard of this beautiful specimens. 50% off if we switch the model with a very naked mole rat. The rat does all the aforementioned things but in its own native way of communicating with little squeaks.
