No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Only rich people get free stuff in the states, anyone who actually needs it is a freeloader.
I was an orphan at the time, but when I was putting myself through college I had food stamps and it helped me a ton with keeping me fed. I was fortunate to have that program available to me at that time in my life. I also worked several jobs at the same time.
its because conservatives lack empathy. theres literally no other reason.
It's also the student loan racket.
Mostly because all of that is a highly-confusing tangle. Food stamps are hilariously limited in most states, same with Medicaid. Section 8/HUD will almost always make sure you wind up living in the most run-down tenement your town has, run by the shittiest landlord, who will almost always be looking for a reason to evict you - and that even assumes you don't have to wait literal years. The current wait time for Section 8 housing in my city is something like a year and a half.
food stamps is a bizarre trap in 2025
You can often get such assistance if you are poor. If you aren't, it's expected you or your parents will cover basic costs.
Luigi!
There's no reason why they can't if they qualify for them, afaik. If you have literally zero income and nobody is feeding you, you qualify.
I had to work full time in college, all my money went to rent and the cheapest food I could find. I didn't qualify for Medicaid, and I only qualified for $30 a month in food stamps. I also didn't qualify for section 8 housing. It was pretty shocking. That extra $30 a month genuinely helped though
that's a huge political question. of all time probably.
should we educate and train new warriors in how to not kill?
i guess it's not going so well.
It is actually the case around here.
The idea is derived from one of the basic human rights: education.
It means, everybody has the same right to education (not just the rich ones), and therefore it is society's task to make sure that nobody gets denied it just because the parents are poor.
College students can be eligible for SNAP & HUD.
No one's ever been advised of...
They do it like that in many european countries.
Fear of an educated proletariat
America is run by psychopaths. Who only want suffering for anyone in need. Just how this system has murdered its way to existence.
Because in capitalist America, you only get financial help if you don't need it.
