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.

Yes, thank you. That is the joke.

It didn't read like this was the joke to me. Disney isn't in a creative rut, they're purposefully not trying new stuff.

I don't even know if they're necessarily in a creative slump on purpose either. They made "Elemental" not too long ago that was fairly original. They just know for a proven fact that if they reach behind their back and grab some random IP from 'The Vault', change one of the characters from white to OTHER, maybe make one of them nebulously gay, and change up the animation style, all of the parents who have nothing bigger to look forward to everyday then what's on their DVR at home, will 100% buy movie tickets to go see Will Smith shit all over the memory of Robin Williams.

Yeah that's pretty much what I meant.
