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.”

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!

The one redeeming aspect of how Putin constantly makes enemies is that he'll never ever get to truly relax again.

Humans aren't capable of keeping track of the number of people he's harmed badly enough that they may someday do him violence.

He can never let his guard down, and will never be able to trust anyone.

If that man somehow dies peacefully, I'll buy a lottery ticket the same day, because that would be a whale of a black swan event.

He'll fall out a window like everyone else. It's the only natural cause of death in Russia

But not exactly neutral, at least in Russia it seems... ;-)

Russian gravity does seem unusually politically motivated...
