People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

From Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein. I wonder if the estate could sue for damages.

We still have extortion

The X makes it cool 😎

(I see the Futurama reference didn't work sorry)

It’s only because someone else took the letter X and made it objectively uncool. What a shithead.

True. I forgot about that. Mostly because fuck Twitter and that guy anyway.
