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.

Surprisingly, I haven't died early. I just celebrated six decades of life last week. I guess if I pass in the next couple of years that might still be considered early.
I think you'd be surprised at the number of people who's lives i have enriched over those years. I certainly am.
Sorry, gonna have to disagree. I have no right to tell others how to live, whether directly or indirectly. Voting for individuals is indirect, voting for ballot measures is direct.
I have no right to tell you if you can own a gun or not.
I have no right to tell you if you can or cannot have an abortion.
I have no right to tell you if you can or cannot ingest a substance that alters your reality.
I have no right to tell you if you can or can't smoke in public.
I have no right to tell you if you can or can't buy alcoholic beverages before 1300 on Sunday.
I have no right to tell you if you can or can't use paper or plastic bags at the grocery.
I have no right to tell you if you can or can't sell drinks with paper or plastic straws.
That list can go on and on.
There are some who may believe "it's all we've got so I'm going to participate." I am not one of those people.
As to the hyper-indivualistic, I understand why you might say that. It's not entirely true. I do believe that the individual is the smallest minority, but I also fully believe in voluntary community.
