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

This is me. I grew up "choose between bills and food" poor, and found alternate solutions to enjoy things. Figured that once I had the disposable income I'd stop. Sure, I did pay my way for a long time too. The thing that fucked me off the most was Netflix telling me that I couldn't share my account with a student friend of mine. I'm paying to be able to watch on 4 screens simultaneously, who the fuck is Netflix to dictate where those screens are located?

I still pay for stuff, if I feel that the service, software, what have you, deserves my money. I've paid enough for Netflix through the years so anything there is just me collecting my due.
