The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...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!

Oddly enough, years ago I had an eye doctor named Robert E. Lee, and he was a black guy. Seemed like a really nice fella.

There are two states celebrating that eye doctor this Monday, he must have been super nice.
