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

Growing up poor in the south, couldn't agree more. PBS has done such enormous good in the world. I mean, incalculable, flat out.

Edit: wait, Bob Ross screaming at recruits, wtf?! Eyes glossed right over that and refused to let it in the ol ticker!

Last edit: found it further down the thread, that is crazytown. Cannot imagine it and I have a RICH imagination.

Lol yup, why do you think he always painted a solitary cabin in the woods

There’s an urban legend around Mr Rogers being MARSOC or SEAL, but it’s the calm happy accident brush stroke man who could jump start a jeep with his bark
