People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- 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

MODERATORS
Not an avid listener, but The Scientist (2002, so... old) really sunk in for me when I heard it. His voice gets criticized but I think it fits in perfectly with that song's subject matter as an exploration of grief and unsuccessfully trying to confront trauma with reason and logic.
Haven't listened to anything newer that that, so ignorance is bliss over here!
If you've never seen the video, this is a rare example where it adds really valuable context to the song itself.
