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.

  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 an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.

If nobody ever questioned anything, nothing would ever change. Be the change you want to see, and stop shitting on people for actually standing up for something.

I love that you're offended because of my comment about me not having job opportunities.
Social media in a nutshell, tbh.

Maybe not everything is about you, hmmm?

Do you ask any questions during an interview?

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 0 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

No, I've never interviewed for a job that i was willing to not get.

You know, little opportunity and all.

Calling something out ≠ offense.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 0 points 1 day ago

I don't have many job opportunities so this doesn't really apply to me lol

STOP SHITTING ON PEOPLE

That's much better, you're right.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I don't think they're shitting on anyone, just acknowledging that this is a very good way to not get a job

[–] ToTheGraveMyLove@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

And if everyone maintains that mentality, then nothing will ever change.

[–] ieGod@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Whether that's true or not, there was no shitting to be found.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

To be clear, that "mentality" is not wanting to die starving on the streets

[–] ToTheGraveMyLove@sh.itjust.works 1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

No, that mentality is subservience.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works -2 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

Sure. I'll be a good little subservient peon, in my warm house with my food, and you can starve outside in the cold because you made yourself unhirable in protest against a system you would literally rather die than engage with

[–] ToTheGraveMyLove@sh.itjust.works 2 points 23 hours ago

Boot isn't food m8.

Because it makes a prospective employee look petulant and disagreeable

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 23 hours ago

I don't see that at all. Any employer who reacts negatively to a simple question like that would be sus. Why would anybody want to work at a place that saw feedback as a threat?
