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.

My Chinese girlfriend makes me watch Chinese Xiahongshu (think Instagram reels) videos on her phone with a cracked screen with her. No, I do not understand Chinese.
My wife with Spanish Instagram. But to be fair, I'm on duolingo learning Spanish
Check out Dreaming Spanish's method and content (Comprehensible Input)
Over a year at it and my progress has been amazing. About 1000 hours now. (though I need to do more speaking...)
I can understand everyday speech, TV shows, books more than well enough to enjoy them thoroughly. I still get lost sometimes but that's expected at this stage.
I'm learning Mandarin and I can understand some pronouns
Honestly its probably helpful then (aside from the cracked screen! Get it repaired)
Immersion makes learning so much easier. Even if you previously learned it and feel like you forgot, it helps bring things back to the surface so much better imo.
Sometimes I try and say small phrases to her in Chinese. We've already learned to argue in Chinese, lol
Have you guys seen Firefly? I always wondered what they were saying and whether their pronunciation was any good
My Filipina wife makes me watch English YouTube shorts. But to be fair, I make her so stuff she doesn't want also.
