People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- 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 (see rule 6)

I'm GenZ but the millennial has a point
I am millennial, and I prefer to edit. That said, I feel like people are less likely to notice the edit than they are an additional message.
Also creates the occasional “I could swear that said something different when I first read it…”
I’ve taken to editing my messages to strike through removals and [edit: italicize] additions/corrections, if I think it could cause confusion.
I like this kind of editing better than the normal type. Feels more fair
