Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
Absolutely no NSFL content.
Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

The extreme urban decay of the 90s is to the extreme urban decay of the 20s just as Office Spaces hell of office cubes and meaningless work is to the deeper, darker hell of gig work and poverty.

Shit was shit, its just that shit wasn't as shit as it is now.

I brought up how Office Space is supposed to be about a hellish environment.. I've never had a cubical to myself, or a computer I can leave at work at 5pm. Its 2026 and I find myself wishing for the hell that Peter finds himself in, as its far, far more comfortable than the hell we have now.

I hated that movie the first time I watched it. Found it terrifying.

The work and environment wasn’t the scary part, but how much people were willing to do something they felt hatred towards without protest.

I would drag my balls over broken glass at the moment for a secure job where I did something mundane. Ideally one that doesn't actively worsen the world. I've already done too much of that.
