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:
- 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.
- 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.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- 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.
- 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.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

My first job application as a spotty teenager landed me a job. This developed a false impression of the job market for baby me (in my country it's perfectly legal to pay minors less than the minimum wage, thus an incentive to exploit children).
My second job, in my spotty mid-twenties, took me around 100-300 applications, and I only ended up getting the job due to some programme that let companies get cheaper onboarding through a government scheme.
I'm in my spotty mid-thirties (I might have bad skin), I've had success only applying for the occasional job that actually interests me, and putting my best foot forward (each application generally takes 3-5 hours preparation). I'm fortunate enough to not be desperate though (employed, just seeking something better).
Even with LLMs, I think most employers are savvy enough to tell if a person is genuinely interested.
Side note: Don't use em dashes. I love em dashes—but so does ChatGPT—it's one of the first things a recruiter will look for apparently.
what about fake em dashes (two en dashes --)
who am I kidding I just spam semicolons anyway
We get it you went to college 🙄
