  • I read the whole article and I’m still kinda confused what the “we” in the title is referring to.

    Also and addition to the ‘non disabled people pushing for accomodations even when it isn’t needed then not listening to the disabled people’ conversation, /s should only be used when the sarcasm isn’t obvious.

    The entire r/fuckthes sub is autistic people saying how it ruins jokes then non autistic people saying “nO iTs FoR pEoPlE wItH aUtIsM” and saying the sub is ableist and its so annoying how they won’t listen to the very people they’re claiming to fight for.

    Not to say I think /s is useless, it definitely has a place when sarcasm is iffy, a good example is making fun of conservatives where people might think you’re serious.

    Also the /hj (half joking) one is SO infuriating because there’s 2 halves and one of them is a joke but it doesn’t say which one. It’s never really been an issue for me personally, but it’s a bad system that gets on my nerves.

    I’m not sure if I’m putting my thoughts into words well enough to get my point across without sounding like an asshole.
    idk I just have some controversial opinions on tone indicators that’s minorly annoying to me and thought this would be a good place to share.



  • holy shit I’m just learning about this now?!?! I have a mild allergy and apparently I can now enjoy* one of my favorite foods I’ve been unable to eat for years?!?! thank you so much OP 🩷🩷

    *I just get really inflamed and feel horrible if I eat it. I won’t die, just not a good experience. An article says it’s like ~2% crab meat and even if I have a horrible experience I think it’s worth a try with a benadryl on hand.
