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 a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Dr. Perky is Food Lion's own-brand Dr Pepper knockoff. Knock-off cereal and soda names are the best. Prongles were real, but apparently more of a gag product co-packed by a board game company.

Right? "This bitch reeks of fiscal responsibility and informed procurement" is a wild take.

OP even paid for X premium pro+ or whatever

That's the reddest flag

I couldn't date someone that gives money to the richest piece of shit in the world just to have a blue icon nearby his username

Not all off-brands and discount stuff is good, but trying some and finding which one is, is the price for saving money. And besides, people can't act like a fucking Coca-Cola sommelier, coke pepsi discount or whatever, it's basically all the same.

Dr. Pepper is pretty different, though. Definitely leaves more room to fuck up than standard cola.
