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 partner is permemantly disabled, so getting married grants them protection financially if anything happens to me. I could totally make a will and say "All my stuff goes to spouse", but if my family (not that they ever would) wanted to intervene because we weren't married, they could.

Now? Because we're married my partner gets anything and everything if something happens to me. The house, the cars, the dogs, my inheritance, everything.
