People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. 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.
  7. 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

My grocery bill is much higher than pre-pandemic. I don’t even notice the egg prices.

You should do something to cheer yourself up. Ever tried to dance a minuet?

Sadly they are still some of the cheapest breakfast options. 3 eggs is about 1.50 for a meal.

1.50 buys you enough oats to feed you for the entire day

Yeah. While eggs have gone up a lot as a percentage, they're still pretty cheap as an overall portion I n of the grocery bill.

Egg prices doubling isn't as bad as all the items that cost 5x as much as eggs going up 30%.
