Sounds weirdly specific but ok
RULES: 1. NSFW/CW/TW: ENTIRE GROUP. You may see bad things here. You probably will. BE PREPARED. If you find a post too offensive, report it to The Administration and consider blocking the member who posted it. Do not block The Administration. Any further use of warning on posts is at the discretion of the member posting. 2. NO QUESTION POSTS/AMAs/SELFIES HERE. Ask your weirdly specific questions/discourses/poll options to our spinoff group "@Sounds like a weirdly specific question but ok" or some other spinoff group in the “sounds like a weirdly specific… ” universe, or create your own group. 3. BE NICE & NO HATE SPEECH: While generally left-leaning in membership, this is primarily a humor group and has no explicit political affiliations. It will not necessarily be an echo chamber for any particular view (see Rule #3). Keep the politics out of it and the discourse at a minimum whenever possible. Posts, bait, and comments of a political nature will be deleted at the discretion of The Administration. HOWEVER being an blatant sexist, racist, alt-right nazi, MRA, or other such garbage in this group will still get you banned on sight. 4.DON'T BE A JERK: Disagreements are going to occur. Don't be a jerk. Consider walking away when possible. If you feel harassed/bullied or are bothered by someone not following the rules, tag The Administration and block the offending member(s) if need be. Tag the page or the mod team, or report the problematic posts/comments to the mods. 5. You may see good things here. Not every post is intended to be mocked/devalued for it's weirdly-specifiness. If you think your post may cause confusion, add context or be prepared to explain. You may see satire, and that is OK, as long as that satire is weirdly specific. 6. The Administration may delete frequent reposts, obvious bait, posts in explicit violation of Facebook rules, irrelevant stuff that are deemed not weirdly specific enough, or just really really bad. The Administration may decline posts, close commenting on threads (or dumpsterfires), or ban any member who spams, consistently breaks rules and also just because. 6. (invalid) T SHIRT TUESDAY (although we are quite bored of them) Please post your weirdly specific t-shirts, hoodies, and mugs on Tuesdays only. This way we don't get flooded with products, and the folks who enjoy them get a whole day of them! Weirdly specific question/survey/fact/poll/x posts, please go to the question group. 7. This is NOT: a selfie group, a serious support/advice group, a place to air your complaints or stir up drama regarding other groups, Ask Reddit, or a place to discuss your totally normal/boring personal habits. We do not care about your livestream, youtube channel, or music unless it is clearly weirdly specific.

Humor
i feel personally attacked by this relatable content
~~SAD PUPPERS 420 PRESENTS~~ ~a nice place 2 find humor in ur sadness~ - -this is a space for compassionate humor, relatable memes, and sharing experiences. while it largely revolves around our experiences with depression and mental illness, the mods believe that its main purpose is to lighten the load. posts that are too heavy or lacking required content warnings may not be approved --please add CWs (content warnings) as requested. please treat subjects like suicide, rape, trauma, etc. with special care and TW or CW accordingly. Do not mock content warnings or else you will be banned. --we want to avoid this group being an echo chamber of negative feelings about ourselves and our relationships, so it is important that there is an aspect of humor in the post if it is a personal account / OC. please respect collective emotional boundaries. --while we encourage people to relate about difficult experiences here, this is not and cannot be a support group. it is too large for vulnerable discussions on traumatic subjects. posts/comments like these may be deleted. the mods cannot guarantee the safety of the space, but work to make it as safe as we can. SOME POSTING STANDARDS --if you think your post would need a trigger warning, reconsider if this is the right place to post it. --triggered jokes or joke content warnings are bannable --do not attempt spicy discourse or concern trolling on trigger warnings and their effectiveness --we consider the phrase "crippling depression" to be ableist and discourage its use in original content & shared memes BAD / DISCOURAGED POSTS --journal-type oversharing of trauma or mundane events --related to the DSM, diagnosis or self-diagnosis --posts seeking help / in crisis --humorless self hatred --“guess i’ll die now” memes (often) --tag yourself and starter pack memes --tinder screenshots (with few exceptions) --anything featuring blood / gore --cutting references and imagery --overt suicide references --edgy posts or discourse about medication --general spicy discourse and hot takes (in posts & comments) --political memes and academic discourse --anything shared from Buzzfeed and affiliates (Adam Ellis, etc) - IF YOU ARE IN AN UNSAFE OR EMERGENCY SITUATION (IN THE UNITED STATES), PLEASE CALL THE NATIONAL SUICIDE HOTLINE AT 1-800-273-8255!!! IF YOU CANNOT CALL A PREVENTION LIFELINE OR ARE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY AND FEEL THAT YOU MAY BE A THREAT TO YOURSELF, HERE ARE INTERNATIONAL RESOURCES: - http://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/ - http://www.suicide.org/international-suicide-hotlines.html - http://www.crisischat.org - https://www.imalive.org/ - http://www.7cups.com - http://nightline.ac.uk - http://www.samaritans.org <3 for the love of puppers <3 sad pupper non-militarized funtime facilitation crew

The Solo Female Traveler Network
We empower women through travel. www.sofetravel.com I am Amanda, and I started this group after 4 years on the solo road. After having all my belongings stolen from my hostel room in Mexico, I knew that there were plenty of kind people nearby who would help me out, but I had no way to connect with them. So, I sat on that hostel couch determined to find a way so that no other woman would have to feel as vulnerable as I did in that moment. We have now become the largest online community for solo female travelers and have an incredible team of mods to help keep this space positive and travel focused. With your help, we aim to keep this a space for all female travelers to be able to come for not just travel advice, but also to understand cultural differences, get support for homesickness, show off the amazing photos from your last trip, tell stories, and celebrate wins with women who get it. I hope this group will be encouragement to empower and support each other online, on the road, and always. ⭐️⭐️Go to our website for Meetup Tours, articles, more about us, and our virtual events with travel experts. www.sofetravel.com⭐️⭐️ HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF THIS COMMUNITY👯‍♀️ 👉 Like any community, you get out what you put in. Offer great advice, support, and non-judgement, and you will get it back. 👉🏻See something that goes against the rules? Report it to admin! It is ALL of our responsibility to keep this a positive space. 👉🏼Read the guidelines (or rules), because some are not so obvious. 👉🏽Don't take things personally. This is a pretty good rule for life, but also for this space. 👉🏾Keep it focused. We are all about solo travel and support for women on the road. Use the many online resources out there and come to us for community. 👉🏿We have quite a few subgroups that focus on: digital nomads, travel meetups, free accommodation, over 40, and more. Check them out!

Concordia University Used Books
***PLEASE READ // IMPORTANT NOTICE // BEWARE OF SCAMMERS*** Hi, this group is for all STUDENTS from Concordia University in Montreal to sell/buy used BOOKS for their courses. All posts unrelated to the sales of books and/or course materials will not be tolerated. Those posts will be removed immediately and the OP may be removed and banned from the group. Please invite other students as the more people in the group the larger the variety of textbooks available. To buy/sell books from other students please also check out the following apps/websites/sources: StudEtree: https://m.facebook.com/studetree Swap My Books: http://www.swapmybooks.ca SellBooks: www.sellbooks.today HELPFUL RESOURCES FOR DIFFERENT SUBJECTS: Math: www.mathsplain.com, khanacademy As far as I know, these are students initiatives, so do your own research when you visit their apps/websites. !!!DISCLAIMERS!!!: *This group is NOT a Representative of the Concordia University Administration. But just a student run service for fellow schoolmates. !! ** Any transaction between members must be respected. *** Any kind financial loss will be your responsibilities. ****Please be careful of PDF sales and online deals. Unless you get the goods, avoid e-transfers. We are not responsible for fraudulent activities. ~A PIECE OF ADVICE~ A few people got scammed over the sales of e-books. The sellers' profile have been blocked, but this does not prevent them from creating a new fake account and reintegrating the group. Always do a background check on your sellers, such as their Facebook profile creation date (the more recent, the fishier it is), the activity on their account (no activity is a red flag), and search the group for posts that might have their names and check the comments. If their profile information is highly limited, we suggest you don't take a chance and look for another book source instead. Avoid e-transfers, because your banks won't cover for the transactions. Make sure there are ways to track information and that you have some sort of guarantee (e.g. Paypal has policies for refunds). With this said, have a happy book buying/selling/swapping!

♥ LIGHTWORKERS of THE WORLD ♥
LIGHTWORKERS POSTING GUIDELINES The purpose of Lightworkers of the World is to accelerate the evolution of humanity by raising vibration of self and others. We are a group where members can read educational and uplifting material, participate in discussions, and give/receive support, love, advice and healing. We reserve the right to delete any posts that we feel are inappropriate for this group. PLAY NICE: We will not tolerate abusive or harassing comments. If you cannot present your ideas politely you may be removed from the group. Name-calling is NOT acceptable. LIVE FEEDS: Members may NOT post active live feeds in this group. PERSONAL POSTS: Lightworkers of the World is a community. You are welcome to post questions, ask for healing, support or advice, or simply introduce yourself to the group. Please note that posting of another person’s picture requires their permission. SELFIES: We believe that providing positive feedback can help boost the spirit of those who are struggling or seeking motivation. We also believe the best growth comes when the poster interacts with those giving feedback. Posts with a picture that only says ‘What do you see’ will be deleted’. If you truly want feedback, tell us a bit about yourself, your desires and your challenges first. From there we will be happy to respond. ADVERTISING: We are not here to be a target market. If a post asks for money or donations it will be deleted. We do not allow advertising of products or services. We will allow promotion of groups and pages related to Lightwork along with sharing of educational material. We anticipate that members who promote are also active participants in the community. SOLICITATION: We do not allow solicitation of clients. We will delete posts that offer healing or readings that require members to send private messages to proceed. PICKING POSTS: Posts that encourage people to ‘pick for a reading’, such as pick a tarot card, pick a crystal, etc. are limited to MONDAY ONLY. On Tuesday we will turn off comments for these posts so they gracefully fade away. OBVIOUS DELETIONS: Pornography, graphic violence, animal abuse and messages invoking hatred or anger do not belong on this page. POLITICAL POSTS: We will delete any posts that state a position either for or against a political candidate. We are non-political and take a neutral position. RELIGIOUS POSTS: Lightwork transcends. We do not accept posts that sell a religious viewpoint or imply others are deficient for following a different path. TIMEWASTERS: We will delete posts that provide no value while attracting comments, such as math puzzles, games, or posts that ask for ‘Yes’ or ‘Amen’ or other repetitive answers. CLICKBAIT POSTS: Even if the information is valid, we are not here to train people about health issues, proper diet, exercise routines or celebrity news. EVALUATION OF VALIDITY: We cannot attest to the value of any services of any members. Let the buyer beware.

MSA CONCORDIA
MSA Concordia Founded in the early 70’s, the Muslim Students’ Association (MSA) of Concordia University is one of the largest and most active student association under the CSU umbrella. MSA strives to provide high quality services to students on a daily basis at both the Sir George Williams and Loyola campuses. Over and above serving the needs of Muslim students, the MSA continuously holds events and lectures that cater to the interests of all students. MSA Concordia works to base its reputation on communication within the University and community at large. By providing religious material in many languages and highlighting the ethnic diversity found within our members and executives, we are a truly unique club on campus. The association is supported by volunteers that consistently and tirelessly give several hours each week to enhance student life. With daily prayer and Friday prayer services at both campuses, lectures, study circles and events related to Ramadan, a countless number of students benefit from MSA activities at any given time. By working to provide stable resources for students and maintaining ties with many organizations inside and outside of university perimeters, the MSA strives to deliver diverse events and opportunities for the Muslim student body and community. The great variety and number of activities presented by the MSA, along with the great number of volunteers that this requires, makes the MSA a valuable part of the Concordia University student experience. The CSU executive and councilors are invited to get to know the MSA better and take advantage of its many services and events.

Montreal Gay Village
Montreal's Gay Village (The Village, French, Le Village gai or simply Le Village) is located on Saint Catherine Street East, centred on Beaudry metro station, and on Amherst Street in the Ville-Marie borough of the city. The Village runs approximately from St-Hubert Street to De Lorimier Street on Saint Catherine Street, and between Sherbrooke Street and René Lévesque Boulevard on Amherst Street, a distance of nearly two kilometres, making it the largest in North America in terms of scope of the complete area. Formerly a poor working-class neighbourhood, part of the Centre-Sud area of the city, the area was occupied by the gay and lesbian community after the huge expulsion of many gay businesses from an area closer to Saint Lawrence Boulevard (or "The Main" as the locals call it). The area has been considerably gentrified, due in part to recent investment from the various levels of all governments. Indeed, despite repression as late as the early 1990s, recent government support of "Le Village" has been significant. All three levels of government are aggressively promoting the Village, and with the accepting climate of Quebec, and gay life in Montreal as a tourist attraction. In recognition of the Village's importance to the city, Montreal's Ville-Marie borough that includes the Village recently hung a rainbow flag in its council chambers, and recently redecorated the entrance to the Beaudry Metro station found in the heart of the Gay Village with rainbow pillars. The Village is specifically marked on official city maps as "Le Village".

Parent Life Network, Canada
A place for Canadian parents to connect - ask questions, share advice, and find resources to help make your parenting journey more awesome. This is a discussion group for all kinds of parents and caregivers, all across Canada. If your question is more locally-relevant (eg. “Where can I get a birthday cake in Guelph?”), a local parenting group may be able to better help you. The same goes for buying and selling baby items. 1. PROMOTION: Promotion on the PLN page and group (of members’ businesses, services, blogs, etc.) is reserved for partners of the Parent Life Network. In some situations, the Parent Life Network may make an affiliate commission on sales made from links you click on in our posts. Unauthorized promotional posts of any kind will be removed. If you have access to a large follower base and would like to cross-promote with us, please send us a message on the PLN page or email alanna@parentlifenetwork.com. We’re always looking for new contest sponsors, experts, and bloggers to work with! 2. RESPECT: We will remove posts or members that misuse the group in any way, and close threads that start to go off the rails (an Admin will post “Thread Closed - further comments will be deleted”). We encourage helpful, insightful, supportive discussion, and differences of opinion can be a great opportunity for growth, but consider how others will interpret your tone. We have no tolerance for trying to make others feel bad. Please tag or message an Admin (Alanna Schiffer and Jessi McAlpine are your first points of contact) if a thread needs our attention. 3. PHOTOS AND QUESTIONABLE CONTENT: Consult your doctor if you're concerned about your child's health, and consider this group a place to turn for additional support from other parents. If you must post a photo to illustrate a concern, please add it as a comment to your main post. To avoid having your post deleted, please see the group's pinned post for a more detailed Checklist of Non-Permitted Posts. 4. GAMES: Guessing games and Photo-posting games (“Does Baby Look Like Mom or Dad?”, “How Far Along Am I?”, “Carrying A Boy Or A Girl?”) can be fun, but with such a large group, they quickly become overwhelming. In the past we’ve tried to create albums for these posts, but they still seem to result in a flood of pictures on everyone’s feed. Unfortunately, these posts will be deleted. 5. Have fun!

4x4 set-up🇨🇦
Page pour les trippeux de 4x4, peu importe le modèle, la marque, la région ou le club. Nous les réunissons tous ici : photos, vidéos, concours, événements, vente ou échanges. Aucune photo n'ayant pas rapport au 4x4 ne sera tolérée, si vous avez autre chose qu'un 4x4 à échanger contre un 4x4 faites l'annonce et mettez la photo et description de votre item en commentaire. Nous ne sommes pas une page de vtt, les vtt ne sont pas toléré sur la page. Pour garder le cap vu que la page prend de l’expansion à vue d’œil, nous devons resserrer les règles envers certains types de 4x4 qui s'éloigne de plus en plus de la vocation de la page. Les VUS ‘’classiques’’ (qui sont plus couramment utilisés pour des projets hors-route) resteront toujours bienvenus comme les tracker, samourai, les fullsizes américains (tahoe, suburban, blazer, bronco, ramcharger et même les vieux durangos), etc. Cependant, dû à la grande diversité de pages de petites annonces disponibles sur facebook, nous voulons garder le focus de notre groupe sur les véhicules à vocation plus hors-route. Les VUS de type urbain (plus récents) seront dorénavant revus et si un admin détermine que l’annonce en question n’a pas de liens avec le hors-route, elle sera supprimée de la page. Voici quelques exemples; rav4, crv, compass, escape, durango (nouvelle génération), traverse, highliner, x3, tiguan, forester, sportage, etc. Les ventes et recherches de bazous seront aussi plus surveillées. Même approche en ce qui concerne les pneus et accessoires. Ex : les pneus à double vocation (all terrain) seront acceptés mais pas les pneus pour la route uniquement… Nous tenons à réitérer que ces mesures ne sont que pour le bien du groupe. Nous voulons offrir à nos membres une page dédiée à notre passion, les 4x4, et non juste une autre page de petites annonces sans règles et structure. Pour la vente, veuillez svp détailler un minimum vos annonces. Tout le monde veut savoir au minimum : -Un lieu, ville, ou région. -l'année -le kilométrage -et plusieurs aiment savoir le prix, bien que ce ne soit pas obligatoire… Merci et bienvenue dans le groupe! Au plaisir de se croiser sur la trail !
