People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

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

Ah, you're right. I didn't grow up reading DC or Marvel, so I was under the impression that Western comics didn't do that as much. Another one I don't like is characters having names for each one of their attacks and screaming it out loud. As much as I love shonen mangas, it always felt super weird. I'd be very interested in knowing when/why these tropes became popular.
