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.

I mean DO have cousins whose aunt KEEPS BRAGGING ABOUT THEIR VACATIONS...
And when my family was in NYC (like when I was 8 - 12) they were busy so they left their kid (who's named RAYMOND) with us, and he fucking started bullying me... fucking ABCs (American-Born Chinese) so arrogrant cuz they got birthright citizenship and spoke better
And recently, they just bragged about this Raymond apparantly "making millions of dollars from a bussiness trip abroad".
I'm just like... cool good for you, lucky you got privilage.
They grew up with Wii and Nintendos
My other cousins, all those who were all born in the US, every one of then had a bunch of toys and video game consoles growing up... I never had an actual video game console growing up. My family is broke as hell.
So its just jealousy, envy... but still, I'm not gonna beg them for money, its a face thing.
Which is why my mom is so disappointed in me, we're probably the "poorest" in my extended family...
One of the Aunts actually got my family to the US so I am thankful for that... (the mom of that Raymond kid, that kid who bullied me when my parents wete babysitting him, I say "babysitting" but he was a year older than me actually)
I mean I have no relationship with any of my cousins, they didn't even wanna talk to be because I was "Fresh Off the Boat"... so we just kinda never really talked...
I don't care about them... I'm more worried about whether or not I get my half of my parents stuff, those cousins are irrelevent to me, I mean good for them, they had more privilege than I ever did.
But then again, they probably had more pressure and expectations... so IDK if they actually have happier lives... I heard they were forced to do tutoring and stuff. Their dad is a college professor and I think their family own a lot of realestate and they have stocks and get news cars so often, like a new flagship phone every year... vacations every year...
And my paternal grandparents keeps asking money from their children... its always so awkward... my mom told dad to "make sure to give it when everyone else is in the room" so there are witnesses and they wont say their son (aka: my dad) was being "unfilial"...
Edit: Okay my comment was full of typos lol
