1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Late 90s early 2000s Japanese mixed martial arts and kickboxing. Pride, pancrase, k1. People still talk about the UFC today, i just think "you don't even know..."
Tolkien Lore. And WWI.
Are you familliar with the imgurian Ngugi? I could read that stuff for hours on end.
... not the same as proper discussions with likeminded people, but still super interesting IMHO.

Well don't keep us waiting, tell some!
Tolkien Lore Quick Fact:
Technically speaking Aragorn married his first cousin 65+ times removed.
WWI Quick Fact:
While thought of as a defensive struggle that lead to stalemates, generals at the time weren’t necessarily wrong to keep up the attack. Both sides were able to capture ground. Including enemy trenches. The issue was that neither side could bring reinforcements or supplies up to support those breakthroughs and keep the offensive going faster than the defenders could.
Okay, now I must ask - do you have more Tolkien Lore incest facts to share? Because I certainly didn't expect that one!

Major League Baseball history. Old time teams, players and stats, the broader historical context with its' events, attitudes and quirks... the whole thing.
Digital mixers. I know a lot of people who use them and know them but very few know how they work internally which is fascinating and interesting and the only people who do are under NDA's
