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.

My wife shows me wayyyy more videos on her phone than I show her on mine
Most of the stuff I share is still images/comics/gifs etc
Same. It takes a very special video to get me to turn my sound on. Definitely more of a static content feller
Mine shares reels, every 19 seconds she has something new to show.
I try to share useful information from youtube but she doesn't have the attention span to watch them anymore.
So it's a one way road and i'm trying my best to just nod and smile at the reels while keeping focus on the information i'm trying to contain from the long form video. It's a bloody warzone sometimes, "hey, look haha. Hey, look haha. Hey, look haha"...can you give me 10 minutes please? And then she's pissed at me.
Short form content...i want my old wife back, can you please remove yourself from existence. You ruined her.
Mine even acknowledges that I hate tik tok videos while shoving them in my face. And when I'm not being shown videos, I'm getting filled in on some petty drama that no one should give a fuck about.
The app has turned her into an extremely negative person.
