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

We've got a few Echos, but these days they are mainly used as a bluetooth speaker (bedroom), kitchen timer (kitchen), and the kids' one (basement) is used for music... and that's about it.

I have one in the garage, too, but I'm about to throw it against the concrete floor and run it over a few times for how often it only plays one fucking song from my Spotify playlist when I'm working on my motorcycles.

Lol... Yea I feel about the same amount of affection for my Google Assistant. If there was a paid version that hasn't been left in 2016 then I'd be down.
