People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

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

It’s a thing, my buddies constantly want me to watch some YouTube dreck that I politely refuse

I only just realised, but some of my younger colleagues really do love sharing videos, now that I think about it. Their ref game is strong and if you so much as hint that you might not get it, bam! it's video time for the whole office.

I dunno, I'm old enough to have read the book about memes before it was even a word on the Net, so it might be a generation thing, but I don't care much for videos. Even gifs break my balls with the looping. I'd just have a nice pic if text isn't enough. But I'm the kind of person that will happily write pikachu_face.jpg and expect you to get and not force you to read the KnowYourMeme page on it, so I find the forced video watching a bit... like explaining the joke. It kinda kills the mood.
