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.

Before I got my glasses the stars looked big and well star shaped, with lots of little spikes, I was utterly disappointed when I got my glasses, looked at the night sky and they're just dots, boring ass dots.

Go out into nature, far far from civilization and light pollution. It's a very different picture.

Oh I had the same experience with my friend's hair. I used to like being behind her in line because her hair was like a flowing, floaty cloud. When I first wore glasses, I could see each hair and it became like a tangle of wires.

You should try looking up at the stars with night vision some day. It's spectacular.

...Or so I've heard. I'm one of the poors that can't afford unfilmed gen III white phosphor tubes.

Just mine your own phosphor at home
