News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

When you take everything you read literally and as Very Serious Business, do you do it as a studied effort, or are you just like this?
Oh what, so now you were JUST KIDDING BRO.
Shut the fuck up.
So your idea of a rebuttal to "don't take everything literally" is to say "well if it's not black then it's white"? You're either literally a school-age child or a complete idiot, what is it about nuance that escapes you? How do you even have to think about it, why isn't it just coming naturally from common sense. Living your life must feel like the first 2 seconds after a blow to the head all the time.
It’s so weird how you could have just said “you know what bro, that makes sense.” and grown a bit from the experience, but instead you thought “yOU tAkE tHInGs too LiTeraL” was an appropriate response.
Fuck me if I’ll ever understand these types of people.
You missed the point, and you just keep reinforcing that you missed the point. You just keep doing it, it's like watching a man who doesn't realize his toupee is hanging off the back of his head. Am I really going to have to explain it to you? It would be like explaining why water is wet, it degrades everyone present. Do us both a favor: apply the context clue skills you didn't pay attention to in your third grade Language Arts class and piss off till you get it.
I know it's sometimes hard to decipher sarcasm from written word, but holy shit people took your joke insanely seriously.
Stay away from stand-up comedy, someone might discover you own a PlayStation as well.
FWIW, I chuckled. What a sad fucking story and what a sad fucking state that you're consoling humor went so unappreciated.
Or maybe sarcastically implying that a murder was a hate crime when we know literally nothing about the situation is a shit joke. Immediately screeching like a toddler after very mild pushback isn't a good look either.
I'm just not reading it as screeching, but what do I know? I misread tone all the time.
Either way, I'm morbidly curious what they're going to find about this. Stabbing murders tend to be incredibly personal, which could imply that this was done by someone close to her or someone wanted to delight in her suffering.
I'm no detective, just some random internet dude, but if not a hate crime, whoever murdered this poor lady certainly had some strong feelings about her.
Let the pearl-clutching begin!
