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.

I'm still too scared of the road and of my ADHD to bike, me take tram and walk

That's exactly how I arrived at this theory. Went on a particularly nice bike ride last summer and suddenly remembered that feeling of freedom I got from owning my first bike.

i grew up in Barcelona with a bike.

never in my life I've felt that sense of freedom.

even with a car. not even close

I can't believe more people have figured this out yet. The simple answer is: money. The REAL answer is that money itself is the dominant life form on our planet. Humans are powerless against anything that allows money to congregate and reproduce. Billionaires are quite literally the reproductive organs of the money demon that rules us. Politicians are the brain. We (the tax paying citizens) are the food.

So why do we drive cars instead of riding bikes? Money wills it so.
