Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Sucks that the athlete is getting all the blame when the event organizers are the ones who had the most responsibility to prevent this. They should've disqualified her as soon as they saw the feces running down her leg. It retrospect it's easy for her to see that this was gross and inappropriate, but during the heat of the competition the burden should've been on someone from Hyrox to pull her aside and tell her she is disqualified because she's causing a safety hazard for the other competitors.
