Welcome to The Shitpost Office

Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not SinisterTreat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe

Rule 2: No Prohibited PostageSome packages are simply undeliverable. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content
  • NSFW content must be properly tagged

If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

Sure, that's why.

Let me hop on my bike for the 12-mile round trip to the nearest grocery store. No idea how I'm getting anything home though.

It's a quick trip out to our camp in the swamp, only 52-miles out and back, 3 miles of which are impassable on a bike. I'll just carry it over my head.

Then I'll make the quick 625-mile round trip to pick up my kids 4 times a year. Hope they got their own bikes!

Have you ever been to the Netherlands? "packed in like rats in arcologies" certainly doesn't describe NL living conditions.
