People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
No international politcs
Be excellent to each other.
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.
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

Yeah of course they're going to fight because they have rules from no child left behind that say they must graduate children or they don't get money. But we're 20 years into that now and parents have to realize this or their children will suffer. It's a personal family problem now. We can advocate for better public schooling in government and help our kids individually at the same time. Don't just wait for the system to fix itself before your kids get fixed.
