I’ve always thought it had the same energy in that they both simply acknowledge having seen the message. What’s wrong with that?

When I use it, I mean ok, because that’s what it actually means. It’s simply a way to acknowledge someone was heard. I will not be changing bc others read more into it. Tis way too exhausting to consider every hidden meaning someone might have.

When will they understand, if I’m introduced to your product through an advertisement, I do not want to buy it. I will make a point not to. Do not annoy me. If your product is good enough, it will be bought.

This is me too, including every janky MMO I think I might remotely like. Gotta grab my character name. But Threads, haven’t bothered to touch it.

I’ve learned from the Japanese phrase ‘itadakimasu,’ which is said before eating as a way to thank the person that prepared the food. I think in the west, a lot of us grew up learning to say things like grace before a meal, but that is too religious for me and gives God credit for peoples’ hard work instead. I love the idea of ritualistically thanking the people who actually made the food. It was one of the things I appreciated while studying there that has stuck with me.

Sadly, be shocked. I got a friend through registering to vote and even offered a ride on election day this past November and she still decided to not bother “because politics are stressful to hear about.”

I’m quite happy with mine :D

There’s also better understanding of neurodivergence. For example, many people with autism and adhd often find subtitles necessary because of an audio processing delay.
