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.

walked into a beer bar

This guy walked into a steel bar one time and has felt the need to clarify ever since

In their defense, they provided some specific details that help to paint a very clear picture of the scene. You get very different rumors at "a beer bar in the pnw" vs. "wine bar in California" vs. "martini bar in Toronto" vs. "dive bar in Chicago" (that one also has the entrance to the Thieves Guild)

That latter kind in Minneapolis is especially niche as the foyer is a two-part locked and obfuscated affair that only allows a single entrant at a time. While the rest of the group waits in the initial enclosure, each individual in turn is allowed to progress into the second section, and there is given a mystery task to complete before being allowed into the bar/guild's interior.

edit: maybe unrelated, but how the fuck did I earn a downvote in less than 60 seconds since I posted this? reddit's leaking assclowns again.

To your edit: presumably bots

I'd like to hope so, though I've seen more Reddit whinginess in downvotes-sans-supporting-argument in the last few days than ever before, so... 🤷🏼‍♂️ ¿Por que no los dos?

Don't forget a Pub which is a different vibe yet again
