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:
- 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.
- 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.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- 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.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

you never forget the moment someone spells it out for you. i used to work in local newspaper - and it was always a wild goose chase type of thing. You work fast because there is always some shit happening. Then i switched into marketing and started doing copywriting jobs. One day i finished the assignment in like an hour and the lead came to me and shared some wisdom "nah, you need to make some revisions and the revisions are SEND THIS SHIT FIVE HOURS LATER, HAVE SOME DIGNITY".
You can't destroy the rainforest. There's a careful balance to these things, no one benefits from it burning down long term
And more individually - if you can work fast, and you consistently save the day when the chips are down, you're a magician. They will value you, and excuse any weirdness, because that's just how magicians are
If you work fast consistently, you're a workhorse. They'll depend on you, but they won't value you. Your successes will be normal, providing less than maximum output will be failure, and for some reason they'll think you can be easily replaced
