People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Meanwhile you still probably have a few naming their kid Khaleesi in 2026

Apparently Brooklyn was full of toddlers named Sufjan 20 years ago. So there’d be a cohort of twentysomething dudes named Sufjan around these days.

See also: names like Liam and Kylie which were a lot less common before the 90s. Not to mention the girls’ name Madison (from a mermaid in an 80s movie).

Sufjan

Sufjan was big 20 years ago? No that can't be right, that would be... 2006...

ETA: ....And I just pulled my back.

I faked my age was 18 for an app yesterday. I put '25th June 2008'.

Illinoise for sure was the soundtrack to a few conceptions

I pulled my back a few moments ago, so you must be right.

Khaleesi makes me irrationally mad. It's not even her name. Daenerys would be bad enough, but at last you could call them Danny.
