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

I've had jobs where I'm not able to talk about specifics but they're still plenty of good stories you can tell.

I was in the Air Force with a secret clearance, working on radar systems. There's some stuff i can't talk about for legal reasons, then there's stuff i don't talk about because it would make me look dumb. Like that time i worked on the circuit breaker panel without cutting input power. Or that time we forgot to open the vents before powering up the thing.
