A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.

Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.

RULES:

  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I fire my 8 bit Nintendo up every five years or so. As long as I blow in the cartridge I'm still good to go.

Fgs use a q-tip! Your saliva will corrode not only the cartridge but the contacts in the system.

I've always been told not to put a qtip anywhere my elbow wouldn't fit.

Then how do you clean your colon‽

[–] ContriteErudite@lemmy.world 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I ask one of my friends to use their elbow for me.

Seems reasonable.

Have you tried their knees instead?

That's what the toilet brush is for.

Does a nipple fit.

I'm more disgusted at the state of their urethra. You've gotta clean that thing

I've replaced the save battery on NES carts before and save keeps working. Gaming used to be cool. Now it's just a momentary money grab the company hopes you forget about.
