No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

As a Canadian, the US.
I live on the border. I've crossed hundreds of times. I will not enter a fascist country who threatens my own country's sovereignty.
I would be willing to visit again if the American people were to make some real changes. And simply ditching Trump won't do it to fix the systemic problems in the country.
But it doesn't look like they're willing to do so.
I agree. Trump's comments about Canada were beyond the pale. They were effectively a declaration of war in my assessment, and even if it is only ever a trade war and an economic war and an information war and a ideological war, and even if it never escalates to territorial seizure or armed conflict (and I'm not convinced those things aren't in the pipeline) I am treating them like a hostile nation from this point forward until Trump and his allies are not just removed from power, but either punished or meaningful change is implemented to prevent someone like them from taking control of the country again.
I live in one of the safest countries in the world, and I put extreme value on that safety. Threats to our safety from our neighbor are going to be treated with the utmost seriousness, and we will defend ourselves. Elbows up.
Same here, I'm done with the US. I would not have visited Nazi Germany either. The country is descending into civil war and it's only going to get worse.
Don't blame you one bit.
I'll still be coming up to visit y'all in the North. Hope ya don't mind. I'm very anti Cheeto Chimp.
Lots more US plates than usual up in my touristy neck of the woods here. We kind of just assume USA plate + in Canada = probably not one of those dumbasses, at least where I am pretty far from any borders
I'm looking for great beer in Montreal @ Messorem.... IDGAF about the rest.
Although, I have a trip to Nova Scotia on my short list. My GF has a family connection that she wants to investigate.
Nova Scotia is awesome. I'm born and bred but I've been away for 15 years. Just returned home and I appreciate it now
I visited in '85. Don't remember much. My GF & I are looking into a road trip up from the Boston area.
I'll be making a Big road map of brewery stops.
