We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post 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.
Posts and comments 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 non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally 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.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
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.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

We are all of us plague!
while this post is popular, i want to mention i dropped a new ep of my travel podcast today: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/yes-you-can--65239344
A large group of crows is called a "murder". A smaller group of crows is called an "attempted murder".
Avoid Reddit, like the plague
ooh, sharp.
good one.
Funny, thats what I call conservatives - A Plague of MAGAs.
a group of ravens is called an unkindess.
A group of crows is called a murder
Communities shouldnt be called sublemmies, they should be called plagues
this is where I'm at.
lemmy communities are plagues.
How soon can we incorporate this into our outreach and messaging?
I think this is the genesis.
who doesn't like a good plague these days?
"You asked for a plague when you said no to vaccines, now here we are!"
A plague upon the mainstream social media?
So on the biblical apocalypse bingo card we've got: War, Famine, Fire storms in California, The Antichrist followers will wear their sign on their head, Empathy is considered a sin, And now we find out the covid-19 wasn't the "plague" it was all the lemmies
join my lemmy instance https://plague.social/
that's got to happen sooner or later. plague instances spreading like the plague.
Is there only one plague or is it many smaller plagues joined together?
I think technically that's the same thing.
A plague of plagues is a plague?
that sounds like a plague to me.
Me logging into Lemmy:
Ah hello Mr The Plague
Lemmings are typically solitary animals
I feel seen
haha, I really liked that part of the description!
Join the plague
BE the plague
I am the plague
Not yet.
that's the phrase, certainly. you've nailed it.
Now I wanna see a plague of lemmy.
A plague of posts please
Now the track listing for the Van der Graaf Generator album Pawn Hearts makes more inter-connective sense with “Lemmings” and “A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers”, the latter of which briefly references the former in the lyrics.
