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

I used the library. Because I didn't trust people or they didn't even attempt to answer. "I don't know, who cares."

Even if I wanted to use the internet, when it started becoming popular, it used to be in the library. You'd have to reserve 30min to an hour timeslots beforehand. And then physically go back to the library at that specified time and use their computer to browse. Going to AltaVista.

I used to Ask Jeeves.

When the Internet had a butler. A classier time.
