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.

Oh I do know what that means! But I get why you say that most people don't. Good on you for figuring things out early.
Not that it helped. Turns out being right about basically everything is the absolute worst thing you can do.
As in being perceived a pessimist because you see through the everyday bullshit? Or what do you mean?
Being alone because I won't jump off a cliff with people, being excluded or demonized for not being g retarded and evil, and being blamed for the failures of others when i explained why they would fail and proposed some alternative(s) that might not¹, and much worse along the same lines.
¹i think they're really sloppified and just link the memory of the concepts of 'that bitch cassandrafatigue' 'failure' and 'thing I failed at' and just see that as a good enough target to lash out at. It makes it hard to feel like these things walking around me are fully people. The only utility to being correct is siding with team evil or doing big shorts, and I don't fucking want to do that.
I see. I really hope you'll find your tribe eventually. It will take time, sometimes more sometimes less depending on where you are, but keep looking. There are good people out there who share your values.
Not into that, after what I've been through. 5he whole tribalistic way of relating is exactly my problem.
I'm almost 40, dear. They don't exist. Send your platitudes elsewhere.
Not supposed to be. Not sure I even subscribe to the idea
On paper as part of a tribal identity, sure. We don't really get along. And every mm I grow unbound to others, there are fewer of them.
