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:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...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!

I wish the press would stop asking fucking celebrities questions about social issues. They do not represent society and never will.

I agree, but I find it amusing in this case since this guy pretty much owes his career to people in the 70s getting high and listening to Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

Typical Boomer/Conservative move. They enjoy something and then enjoy it even more by telling everyone else they’re not allowed to use it.

As much of a shit head as he is, I can separate the man from the music and jam that shit loud as fuck because good lord it's a banger.

You can't lock me in your penthouse, I'm going back to my town!

Unless they say the thing I like, then they are the best person ever!

(I jest here about people's hypocrisy, but I agree, I don't listen to artists because I necessarily sign off on every single dumb opinion they have or action they take. I pirate anyway, who cares.)
