Welcome to The Shitpost Office
Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Sinister
Treat 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 Postage
Some 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.

This is a national holiday in Estonia and it is so significant that Estonians in other countries get together for it.
It's how we celebrate the shortest night of the year, which is like 6 hours and doesn't really get dark.
Minus the frog thing sadly. We don't become frogs. We just get so drunk we can't tell we're not frogs, then jump over a fire and dance around it and shit. Usually nobody dies.
Oh and then young couples go off into the forest to look for fern flowers.
OP, I invite you to come visit Estonia during this magical holiday. I won't search for fern flowers with you, but I'm sure someone will. It's not really the fun part though, the fun part is the whole atmosphere around the fire.
