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

Unless it's soft drink, right?

Side note on American metrification:

I do enjoy that the online calorie/macro counting scene in the US seems to be using grams now.

Wait until they realise they can do g protein/100g instead of per serve or cup, or hogshead.

One day you bastards, one day...

US nutrition labels have used grams for my entire (over 30 year) life so that's probably why everyone uses them for online macro counting.
