Thank you for being the only person with a brain cell in that tone indicator post, people once again getting mad over stupid shit online that doesn't actually hurt anybody
oh anon thank you. so so sorry though i Will take any chance i get to verbally explode over this haha Yeah i think tone indicator discourse is inherently foolish... Puts on my clown makeup...
It's genuinely just- A Marvel to me that people get so upset over this while also sometimes pushing the same thing? Like yeah man! I'm sure putting it in parenthesis makes it funnier, I don't think that's the point though! yeah man you can just say what you mean- you know what that is? Indicating your tone! Just in a different way! Crazy! People almost act like by using three characters... people are Infringing on There Personal Rights n' soon- Oh God!- They'll be forced to use those silly acronyms! I'm sure that means they have Nothing to unpack and are really just the say all be all of what is 'good communication'. Seriously I saw someone say tone indicators are 'mandated' now. If that's not the whole circus-
And then, there's the people who just use it as an excuse to JUST be a bully. Always always if they admitted they're using tone indicators as a means to be a bitch I can respect that, but don't hide behind some idea that your protecting the disabled community.
More personal but, it's sad! I used to like op, i bought art from em' and followed em' for awhile. I learned a lot from my time hearing there opinions and ideas- it's just sad to see them trip on such a... Pathetic pebble in the road cause it's Not a Big Deal? There is no tone indicator 'discourse' at least there Shouldn't be! God i can't stress enough how there shouldn't be discourse over a emoji in letter form. There is so much happening right now, so many issues to be discussed, and this is the highest priority?? Kids in a discord server asked you if you were /gen or /j once? You couldn't use Firefox n thought hj was hand job? Fuck man! Sad!
Getting incoherent, I remember when I had tiktok once, I said a silly comment something over dramatic like "This has unwatered my crops im gonna cry forever" y'know that type when something makes you good overwhelmed, n' ended with a /j cause I was interacting with a stranger n didn't want them thinking there media Actually caused me emotional damage. N'- There response was so nice, just simple n' thankin' me for using a tone indicator. I feel like if more people saw That they'd be less up n arms over something so silly when it really can be helpful n aid in modern texting n avoiding miscommunications. I think tone indicators are genuinely perfect for short form media like comments, uh, anyways I feel silly writing so much about this cause Who Give a Shit! but yeah. anon your swag thank you for making me feel sane and normal about this
