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

"I wasn't clicking at you I said: Hi I hope you're doing well, do you want some beer? In your language!"
Which reminds me of a situation I was in... I don't like to assume people don't speak English based on their appearance so when I was working as a technician I was at a place I'm unfamiliar with and saw a group of people and heard them speaking Spanish, but I started with English.
"Hi! Do you know where the bathroom is?"
"No, no Ingles, no Ingles."
"Ok, donde estas el bano?"
"No Ingles, no Ingles..."
....but I'm speaking your language now! Lol
Yeah, but if the accent isn't right, it doesn't trigger your brain to realize it understands the words its hearing.
Where are you, the bathroom?
Todo el mundo pregunta dónde está el baño, nadie pregunta cómo está el baño.
Por qué es el baño?
Me amo
