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

What if you were neighbors? My family has talked about how cool it would be if we had like a family cul-de-sac

Hell no. I moved halfway across the country to get away from them, and it's still too close.

My mother in law lives next door and we love it because we don't have to worry about her but still have some distance

[–] Sarmyth@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I wouldn't mind that. My in-laws have a duplex but our aunt lives next door. If it wasn't her, it would be us.

That can work for some people, not for me though. I want some distance.

My parents live about a half hour away, and that's a good distance: close enough that we can visit frequently, but far enough that we can claim we don't have time. It works for us.

I like the idea of doing a commune, preferably with better urban planning than a cul-de-sac
