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.”

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!

I agree, but please consider the Streisand Effect here…

I don't know if we should be throwing dildos at Barbara Streisand either though... 🤔

Maybe that’s what she wants. Don’t yuck her yums.

Well, I'm not the best judge of this sort of thing as I am a fucking degenerate.

I sure as fuck didn't know this was happening until this article

This is in retaliation for these women demanding more revenue sharing.

It’s amazing, the same people who had melt downs about “protecting women’s sports” from trans women like Lia Thomas are the same people probably doing this shit. Certainly the same people making shitty comments on Facebook.

This does seem in poor taste by Polymarket, it looks like things to bet on are suggested by users but actually put on the site by the company itself. They should probably have a rule against bets that incentivize breaking the law this directly.

Let's throw spunk-filled condoms at NBA games.
Finding donors won't be an issue.

I think they'd stop the game over something like that. And would be technically... foul.

That would be a biohazard. The dildos are a hate crime.

What about fleshlights at NBA games?
