I hate to be that person, but what’s this new Lemmy trend of posting Twitter screenshots without the link to the original article?
I don’t care about some snarky Twitter commenter, I want to see the Octopus make a friend.
I wanted to see it too. Here you go.
Friend, these are mass-reposted screenshots. The original article(s) may not even exist anymore, and any screenshot could be a decade old or more at this point.
Fuck anyone that links to Twitter /x.
Stole it he did! He tricks me into looking at another model, and the minute I has me back turned, he makes off with me favorite ‘at!
This almost sounded like if was going to be smeagle complaining he got ripped off at a used car dealership

Don’t know why you’re getting downvotes, Twitter is literally run by an Apartheid fanboy, with various racist incidents and aspects to him.
Musk sucks.
Twitter is dead.
Catching strays from the people still on Twitter, angry at being reminded that in doing so what/whose purpose they are being made to serve?
Or people who think “yeah it is, but this is clearly an innocuous post, and it being reposted here actually has very little to do with the political leanings of the other platform’s owner, so this comment feels out of place. Seems more like a reply to ‘twitter is good’ than ‘hey look at this octopus and funni caption.’ Sort of a non-sequitur, outside of being tangentially related due to it being a screencap.”
The use of a platform is how they get money. The usage contributes to stats, clicks, throughput they then show those numbers to advertisers - to get money. So the content doesn’t matter. The use does.
You post to Twitter, you help Musk. Simple as that unfortunately. That’s part of why Capitalism is insidious, you’re constantly aiding a ruling class who do not share your class interests. The least we can do is boycott the worst of them.
But the post is on lemmy, the OP likely isn’t the twitter OP, the one who needs to receive the message is not here to see it. Boycott away, but if the goal is to stop twitter posts you have to tell twitter users, lemmy users are more likely already not using twitter.
Their hat/house is literally trash though.
It’s thrifted be nice
It is now! It was reuse, one of the best Rs in reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
damn… does this count? like generally we want to avoid plastic cups in the ocean, but would it be bad to take something like this from say, a hermit crab? if we take the cup where will it go? chances are it will just end up somewhere else it shouldn’t, but this time without being made use of by crabs. my knee jerk reaction was to say animals using plastics don’t count, but that’s clearly not true when we reuse garbage intentionally to create animal habitat like artificial reefs. can we really say that only humans have the capacity to reuse their own garbage effectively?
Plastic cups are not good protection for animals that use shells. These divers dont forcefully take the cup shell either. They’ll happily give up their plastic cups for the new shells being offered as long as they like it. Then the plastic cup is thrown away.
There’s a difference from scientists trying to make artificial reefs (which even then like the tire reef fiasco turned out to be a terrible idea) and random trash being picked up and used by the local wildlife.
