2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Tattoo ink from Amazon? Gross. Never buy anything from Amazon that goes on or in your body.

I dunno, my mercury pills still seem alright.

What's frightening is you're not in control of where a tattoo artist sources their ink. You can ask, but you won't really know. I've been eager to get additional tattoos but this freaks me out.

OK but... do you buy your own tattoo ink? Do you know that your tattoo artist didn't get theirs from Amazon?

If they’ve already been buying trusted brands on Amazon, I could see them also trying something new…
