Since it was relevant to a discussion I just had on here and is something most people probably haven't thought about much (unless you've taken one of a handful of philosophy classes), I thought I'd try to lay out a key piece of Descartes' Meditations (#philosophy

This is also the reason I despise most requests for content warnings. I do not in fact want to use your schema for this, and people do not in fact agree on what’s triggering. I’m happy to accommodate specific people in some contexts, but for example generally on social media? Sorry, no. The unfollow button is over there.
And it’s not like I go posting spider images or grisly photos or anything. I talk about hard stuff though. usually a little academically, usually a little distantly. And I deeply believe we need more of that and not to bury it under ‘cw: trauma’ or whatever. That warning gives very little information to go on and presumes a whole lot about the schema of the world that does not hold. I won’t be subject to it.
I can exercise care for people in other ways.
And not everyone all the time gets personalized care from me. That’s an impossible demand and should be treated as such.

@… I think this is particularly interesting in the context of the previous "What is the Fediverse?" (Paraphrasing, don't recall exact wording) poll.
If we generally agree that the Fediverse is the total sum of all ActivityPub messages, then it should become quite obvious that presuming how others must use the protocol is a fool's errand at best.

So we've figured out that smoking is bad for you (actually, we fought an uphill battle to even get scientists to universally agree, and even today people are grasping for any pseudoscientific evidence to the contrary). But instead of fighting the tobacco companies and eliminating this awful habit, we've decided to ban children from smoking and limit smoking zones. We know how well that worked. And now there are all these vapes, and we pretend that everything is fine.
We've figured out that alcohol is bad for you. But instead of fighting the booze companies and eliminating this nasty habit, we've decided to ban children from drinking, and adults in some contexts. We all know how well that worked. And now all the booze companies are selling alcohol-free beer to keep everyone ready to drink the serious stuff.
Now we've figured out that a lot of shit that #BigTech is giving you is bad for you. You can guess where this is going…

Agora vou fazer contas de dinheiro. Se eu não aparecer mais aqui hoje, provavelmente é porque os números foram tão ruins que passei o resto da noite chorando na minha cama em posição fetal rs.
