World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Well that's too bad.
Anyways.. Anyone have a suggestions what to have for dinner?
Palestinians have amazing gastronomy. learn to cook some of their stuff. I make about 20kg of pittas and hummus every week for a mutual aid and costs me about 8$ per week. their food is amazing and cheap as fuck.
Excellent suggestion. I've been meaning to try something new. Thai and Italian is starting to get boring after 20 years.
not gatekeeping, just advice, get the best olive oil you can, ideally from a shop you can taste it. And good zaatar is hard to find, avoid any from Walmart spice rack, chances are they replaced the actual zaatar herb (Hyssop in English) with oregano. Most of their food are cheap ingredients so those two key ingredients are important.
if you try Palestinian cooking with low quality oil and oregano instead of zaatar you'll get something that tastes nothing like it's meant to taste that.
Good advice. :)
Luckily its easy for me to avoid Walmart, I think the closest one is several thousand kilometers away. :D And I'm already a snob about olive oil so I got that one covered as well :) IIRC, theres a middle-east specialized spice/food shop fairly near me, I'll go check their selection.
I'm going for bagels
Bagels, for dinner? Isn't bagel like a thing you eat with your afternoon coffee, like a donut? I'm fairly ignorant about bagels lol
USians use bagels for sandwiches, idk why.
Don't let big bagel dictate when you eat them
I think I have never even seen a bagel. Big bagel is very inactive where I live.
You’re missing out. A good freshly made bagel is extremely tasty!
I dont doubt that. I just checked it out and its called (sort of) "water circle" in my language lol
That's awesome; I like the descriptor! They are made by boiling the dough briefly then baking
I might have to use that from now on. What's your language if you wouldn't mind sharing?
Finnish :)

It's basically bread with a hole in the middle, like a donut. Yummy, but nothing spectacular.
Breakfast bagels are pretty good, fried egg, bacon, and a slice of Swiss
I hope the Swiss was consenting to you slicing them up
Evidently if you put an egg, butter and a slice of american cheese in ramen, its magical tasting or something. Sounds like trash to me but worth a try. Unfortunately this is a NYT recipe and you end up going to archive.ph 3 times to read it (eff you, NYT). but its the most american thing ever.

Falafel Gyro.
Halal, of course.
