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:
- 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!

Why not have a cut off age?
Asking people with power to give up that power willingly almost never works, unfortunately.
Not asking, making it the rule
Great thinking!
I'll just check exactly who makes the rules, one second...
Man, you won't believe this, but the old hags that would have their careers end are the same ones in charge of systemic changes.
Who would have thought.
But that's the problem - they make the rules and they're not going to make up rules to their own detriment.
Have we tried insisting firmly? Asking rhetorically because no we haven't
That would put everyone voting for it out of a job.
We were going to implement one... but then we all got dementia.
