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!

So many places, even in japan, are dying to get some tourist 💵 attention and these guys just dont give a fuck. So weird, just start a takoyaki stand near the photo spot and rack in the cash. Eventually the fad will die anyway
It‘s a sure way to throw your actual profession down the gutter for what might be a short hype. The mass tourism we see globally today completely dwarfs everything anyone ever anticipated and it sure as hell isn‘t sustainable just by it‘s nature to cannibalize itself.
