I understand moods or wanting to avoid certain calls, especially spam, but yeah I’m kind of with you how people have become allergic to a phone call. 25 years ago having the ability to make or receive a call any time was a life changing luxury.

Wildly tapping our thumbs on a piece of glass is not how humans express emotion. Since it’s literally impossible to truly convey emotions in characters anyhow, I’m just advocating for attempting to be expressive in a way that more people can understand. Vs confusing your audience because you didn’t consider them and then judging them for it.

Body language has evolved for millions of years. Undoubtedly from before we were human. Texting has existed for what, 25?

And I think the existence of this post in the first place tells us it very often doesn’t work.

I say let’s embrace trying to be clear by using more words, not less. Within reason anyhow.

I mean, that’s exactly my point. Unless you can know people are paying full attention, didn’t make a mistake, and also know/subscribe to the exact same rules, then the potential for misunderstanding is increased not decreased.

Lol a proper shitpost

It’s interesting to me that people put so much effort into creating rules around what subtle punctuation differences mean when there’s a billion reasons not to assume we know what any of it means. Typos, being in a hurry, being a different person with different opinions… Basically texting is like 50% at best for communicating emotions even if we don’t make these random assumptions.

Thanks. I thought maybe it was something like that but couldn’t visualize it before for some reason. I still don’t know why the Loss meme was such a big hit.

No idea how this relates to the Loss meme.

Lol I have actually do have some unlisted videos, I just forgot what that meant until I was reminded

Yeah. I saw that after I wrote my comment.

Ooh you really got me.

I guess you’ll just have to deal with reality then.

Ai slop is bad.

You can just use keyword filters if you’re that fragile 🤷‍♂️

politics where they don’t belong,

🙄

See they’re running out of disk space though. Preserving history is so much less important than 58 minute video essays about [insert any banal topic].

So where did this come from? I try to ignore these trends but you got me to cave. I’m curious now.

Beans, or something.

Lol my relative actually did piss into their drawer. In their sleep though

Just so you can see what I saw:
