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:
- 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.
- 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.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- 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.
- 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.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Now I'm imagining a bunch of spammers and debt collectors having a séance to contact the dead about their extended warranty.
You have accurately described life and death in America. Lol.
In all honesty, though, it's pretty bad. My mom passed away last year, and obviously that meant that certain things she normally paid stopped getting paid, what with her bank accounts being closed and whatnot.
I began to get dozens of calls a week from debtors. I would inform them she had passed away. Some said okay, they'd stop calling. Some requested proof. Some called me a liar outright. And some said things like "Well, how are you going to pay this, then?" And began demanding money from me.
I get at least one call a day from people offering cash for my house. You've given me a good idea for a response: "I'd like to sell, but I'm actually dead."
