People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. 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.
  7. 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

In 1960 the minimum wage was $1.00/hour and the price of the average US home was $11,000.00

That's 11000 hours still...so, 40 years?

EDIT: Misscalculated a bit. 1+ year apparently.

I see you, @WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today. Keep trying. You can do it

There are ~2080 working hours in a year (52*40). So 5.5ish years

I'm only just now getting over looking for shittymorph and you expect me to start checking usernames again‽

Hahaha oh man I miss novelty accounts like that one. One time i saw shittymorph give an actual reply and I was like omg and shared it with people, but apparently he goes back and deletes all his posts that don't do the quote

I wish I was there to see shitymorph myself.
