Nonpolitical Twitter

For screenshots of humorous, clean, nonpolitical social media posts. This primarily implies Twitter, but Facebook, Tumblr, Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, etc. are allowed too. It should be primarily text-based though.

Rules
  1. Again, no politics.
  2. No Lemmy posts. You're already on a Lemmy instance. There's no need to screenshot it and post it here.
  3. No Reddit posts. That's too similar to Lemmy.
  4. The joke must be text. Images can be included in the screenshot, but only as needed context.
  5. Use correct cropping. Don't have a mile of whitespace or show extraneous UI, but don't crop out the date or author.
  6. No doxxing. Again, don't crop out the author's name as he or she has chosen to share it, but definitely do not share extra information which may be personally identifiable or libelous.
  7. Link to the original post either in the body or in a comment.

We are obviously not affiliated with Twitter in any way.

This a problem for english speakers of spanish. I asked my friend what is the biggest clue that someone is an english speaker first and he said the tenses give you away. A lot of spanish as a second language speakers only conjugate in the present tense since spanish tense and mood is different than english. Lots of “I go to the theater yesterday” instead of “i went…”
