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.

This is meaningless if it drives back on the same roads. "You can drive for 30 hours on a roundabout in Blackburn, Lancashire without ever leaving the roundabout in Blackburn, Lancashire"

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 55 points 2 years ago

Yeah I can drive for 30 hours and still be in my hometown, in fact, I can spend my entire life there. Crazy

[–] guriinii@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

I shudder at the thought of 30 hours in Blackburn.

No chance with all those holes though

Fake news

(I would get dizzy and need to stop after maybe an hour)

No you'll be reyt, it's the big roundabout near the M65 with the Maccy's and new KFC. Traffic lights are a nightmare on it so you'll spend half the time sat still

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago

If it’s got traffic lights it’s not a round about.

It’s just a sparkling intersection.

[–] akilou@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

False. You'd have to stop and get gas thereby necessitating that you leave the roundabout in Blackburn

[–] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

If airplanes can refuel mid flight, then so the fuck can I mid roundabout.

Well, it's a weird state carved out of two peninsulas and there's only the one bridge.
