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.

I have done this before but I was sure to make a hand motion imitating lifting and raised eyebrows first, and wait for a nod. No matter how much someone's struggling I'm not going to assume their ok with me touching their stuff or putting my hand near their kid. We goblins can't be too careful.
In nyc it's such a part of the culture that people just stand in front of the staircase with their luggage or stroller and wait for someone to help carry it up or down. If they're standing there, they want help.
Same here.
No matter what, one can't just assume the other person wants it or even will be alright with it - it's not up to me to decide what's best for others hence I offer my help, not impose anything on anybody.
If they don't want it (which happens at times), fair enough.
wise move. https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/23/us/mahendra-patel-caroline-miller-walmart-kidnapping-claim-hdy
Southerners are the worst of all worlds, from what I've heard.
Well that’s fucking depressing
