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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I am 1000% sure they're prepared for this because they've heard it a billion times already.

You greatly overestimate the competency of TSA rent-a-cops.

Though, the mentioned suggestion would absolutely fail considering most airports do x-rays now. Also, if you're pregnant, kinda want to disclose that due to the whole x-ray thing.

I don't think they've used X-ray scanners on people in a long time?

Pretty certain they're all microwave backscatter scanners.

And anyway it's a customer service gate agent we're taking about, not the TSA.

What are they going to do? Force you to provide an exact date and time of conception?
