whoever invented json and decided that we should use it for everything should be punished.
wait no, no one invented it really. json is actually just a side effect of using javascript in browsers that became a standard due to the philosophy of "well hell, it seems to work so why not?", which is also known as the guiding principle behind 90% of web development.
note to self: at some point draw a #splatoon2 character in homage to Alexander McQueen as worn by Shalom Harlow with that bit where she came out in a white dress and was spray-painted by two robotic arms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P13oZsD-t4s

(reply thread) Heavy aphobia, sex, personal experiance with this. FB
It's so much easier for aphobia to thrive online because it's all derived from butchered theory. The microsecond it enters an in-person space, it's either snuffed out or the space collapses at best into infamous toxicity, at worst literally just imploding and existing no more.
It's also fundamentally a capitalist phenomenon, coming from other social media, so its presence here is worrying...
there's an intersection between privilege and how much someone trusts in authority
basically, it’s like this. the more privilege you have, the less likely you are to have ever been at the wrong end of militarized police forces, unfortunate socioeconomic outcomes, and general institutional oppression
the ability to blindly assume good faith in all circumstances is not something that everyone gets to have. please understand this in your conversations with peers that maybe don’t have it as well.
