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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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!

@mysteriousquote 100%

I grew up in the desert in Cali near an airport. I'm not like a plane expert but I'm certainly just comfortable around them and what they look like in the sky. The idea that the trailing clouds would terrify someone just tickles me pink.

I agree with you and have very little to contribute to this conversation, but "tickles me pink" makes me think of my mother, whom I miss dearly. Sincerely, thank you for reminding me of some of the conversations I shared with her.
