People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- 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.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

A lot of Hungarian family names are based on location. They basically translate to things like "Croatian Esther" and "German Andrew", or with village names. My phone is the same: I'm nomadic and people's names end up being where I know them from: "Steve Bangkok", "Nora London", "Maxine Cape Town"
I put place and a word or two of the context I met them. In my case it's usually the instrument they play like:
Jane (NOLA music clarinet)
