A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.

Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.

RULES:

  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I hope this is a fictitious example and he's not actually paying almost $20 for a cookie.

But I've talked to enough Californians to know how much some people are willing to pay for things.

There's a lot of things lately that I realized that I don't really care for now that they are expensive anyway. I haven't paid for XBox Game Pass since it went up. I'm not missing it. I haven't had Neflix or Spotify in 2 years. I don't miss it. Losing Amazon Prime saved me a ton of cash and made me realize I was buying crap I didn't need. I haven't had McDonald's, Chipotle, or Jimmy John's in a long time. Don't miss it.

"oh no, cost of production went up 30 cents. Better pump prices by 5 dollars and blame inflation"

Not even inflation just an experiment
