Objective, factual news you can rely on. Or at least as close to it as you can get in this day and age.

Rules

No name-calling, trolling, ad-homs, personal attacks, strawmanning, or disrespectful or abusive behavior toward any other member. Egregious use of logical fallacies will be considered trolling and dealt with accordingly.

This should go without saying, but any homophobia, transphobia, racism/sexism/any kind of -ism is not allowed. “It’s just a joke” is not an excuse. Any sort of needling to try to convince the mods or anyone else to accept such behavior is not acceptable either.

Please respect our community and don’t use it to post spam, porn, gore, or any other disruptive content.

Posts can only be links to reputable news sources. Sources that are or at least try to be objective are the only ones allowed. Propaganda rags like Breitbart and RT are not allowed.

The only exception to this rule are meta posts discussing serious issues with the sub itself, and for those:

Any meta threads or discussions, suggestions, etc. needs to be tagged with [Meta] in the title, that way it’ll be easier for mods to find. If you have any issues with another member or what-have-you, please message a mod.

Please for the love of all that is holy, don't argue with mods in the comments. If you have an issue, take it to DMs.

Rules subject to change based on need.

"Last night we said farewell to Paul Reubens, an iconic American actor, comedian, writer and producer whose beloved character Pee-wee Herman delighted generations of children and adults with his positivity, whimsy and belief in the importance of kindness," according to a statement posted to his Facebook.

"Paul bravely and privately fought cancer for years with his trademark tenacity and wit. A gifted and prolific talent, he will forever live in the comedy pantheon and in our hearts as a treasured friend and man of remarkable character and generosity of spirit."

Controversy aside, this man was a huge part of my childhood and added a lot of happiness to the world. RIP
