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.

Gross. I would be dissapointed if that was my son
Well you'd have to find something to be proud of, and if this is his greatest accomplishment then pickings must be slim indeed...
Assuming he's a kid, that's a bit of a shitty take. Mom likely understands about half of what's going on and just proud he did something that's not watching brain rot YouTube.
If it was indeed a take, maybe. What I wrote is known as a "joke". At least, that's what I call it when I say or write something that I don't necessarily think is true, but I do think is funny to write or say.
As far as the actual act of prompting a "novel" out of an LLM and self publishing on Amazon goes, it's mostly harmless and I'm not mad. He could be doing much worse things with access to an AI model.
