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

Hmmm.. I guess that's one of those "patriarchy" types of language most people don't think about?
We really only use Manly, because we're big strong MEN, and girly, because that's for those weak little girls?
Womanly I guess technically exists but uh, not really used in the same way.
Back when I was a young fool I got hit by an old, slightly xenophobe lady after some unfriendly words were exchanged on the streets. Her handbag probably contained a womanly brick.
