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 a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Yep, I remember that time. One prepared the data on a separate 650MB partition on one of the SCSI disks as a raw iso image, then shut down the OS, restarted with a reduced OS that only ran the burning software and nothing else.
And the CD burner was an odd machine. You had to put the raw empty CD into a special case, insert that case into the burner, then the burner would move the CD out of that case and spit the empty case out again. And after burning, empty case in, full case back out. And it tended to jam after some time...
Don't remember. Was not my machine, and it was about a universe' existence ago. But it was funny to watch. They had even roped off the table so nobody touched it during the burn process.
