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 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.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Pro-tip: pause the film when you do that.

Pri-tip: We have rewind now.

Alternatively: rewind back to the point where you stopped paying attention.

Way easier said than done.

 

Go back: "not far enough"

Go back further: "I remember this"

"Wait no whats going on? I missed something"

Goes back again: "definitely saw this, should probably fast forward some"

"Shit too far."

"If only I hadn't lost all my fingers in that industrial accident! Blast! Uh...too far."

It bothers me so much when people get distracted but don't pause the movie. Sometimes they go to the bathroom and tell me not to pause it and I don't care, I'm pausing it anyway! They're going to watch it all whether they want to or not.

I don't need to do that. My partner can tell me what happened each minute, their screen names, the actors, and why things have happened. She's amazing, but not everyone has a screen savant like I have.
