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 bullying or 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.

If you don’t want to accept a present for your child because you think it’s bad then you say that. When a person offers a gift to your child and your immediate response is that you plan on selling it that makes you a dick

Also how is this family both so poor that they need to sell the shoes for groceries but also so selective where they don’t want a practically new pair of popular mainstream shoes
