A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

So... Everyone in the class knows that one kid.

Holy misleading statistics, Batman.

That's a ridiculously misleading way to represent the data. It should be 1 in 5 knows someone who has a romantic AI relationship, or has one themselves.
