People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No bullying or 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.

MODERATORS
I remember when people got upset by things like this. I wonder why it's "ok" now.
The people who pointed it out got tired, and most people will come to accept anything that doesn't directly harm them if they're not repeatedly informed why it's bad.
People started replying with "nerd-face-emojo acthually" to make fun of anyone that points this shit out.
It can in some cases be beneficial to have a windowed graph like that. Most of the time I see one it is just misleading though.
I'd argue it's only useful when you have more than two data points. With only two, it's almost always going to be misleading in some way at a glance.
I remember all the anti-establishment, anti-sellout, anti-consumerist comics from the 1980's.
Pancreatic cancer did Bill Hicks a huge fucking favor.
The rest of us are poorer for it. Here’s Tom with the weather.
