shucks :<

@IrisKalmia @Draekos But why D:

@mawr @Draekos like, doing it because it's cute whatever but grumping at it seems needlessly puritanical [read, at all] which is really unsettling

@IrisKalmia @Draekos That's making a pretty big assumption about someone you know isn't by any means a puritan. o.=.o

Being frustrated 'cause you did a thing you didn't mean to do is a perfectly reasonable thing and doesn't have to mean anything more than that

@mawr Being frustrated because you used a real swear where you meant to swap in the puritanical replacement popularized in recent time by a incredibly capitalistic meme account seems at best weird from my vantage D:

@IrisKalmia So Kos isn't allowed to use memes born from capitalism that have historical roots in Christian conservatism, even though we live in a capitalist society who's majority population are Christian, a religion who's majority of practices are conservative?

How far down this rabbit hole do we need to go? I'm sure there are a tremendous number of things in our common speech with similar roots.

@mawr Replacing swears with puritanical replacement strikes me as incredibly regressive.

@mawr The fact we can get away with saying 'fuck' in a public space is something that should be celebrated, in my opinion.

@IrisKalmia @mawr
It's an affectation.
What is regressive is insisting that people stop doing it to appease your own moral proclivities. Taboos that replace taboos are not better taboos, they are just different.

@Irick Irick, fuck off.

@Irick I'll have a discussion with Solei, but you can just fuck off c:

@IrisKalmia
Ain't your conversation to police, ma'am.

@Irick Okay bye.

@IrisKalmia It strikes me as cute, and a silly meme. It pokes fun at how silly it is to use words like "fucking" and "shit" as spice in a sentence, and at the same time, how silly it is to consider it immoral to do so.

It doesn't have to mean anything deeper than that. And you KNOW 'Kos doesn't mean anything deeper than that by it.

@mawr I made a light hearted jab at the *being upset* that the swear wasn't replaced. If we want to make a scene over this I gladly will, though.

@mawr I treated it about the same as I would her making an absolutely groan worthy pun, neither behavior she's even shown an intention of stopping on my account.

@mawr At this point I've put myself into even worse of a position that I really don't want to be defending over it.

@IrisKalmia If it really was just a joke, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

@mawr You asked for a deeper reason of why; I know she won't stop it on my account, as we've had the conversation before. Her response to me was also light hearted, this conversation is in response to your involvement.

@IrisKalmia I made an inquiry intending to continue a silly thread, you responded with a deeper reason, reveling that this was not "a silly jab."

You're welcome to blame this conversation on my lightheartedly asking a question if that makes you feel better about where it's gone.

@mawr You asked me why o..o

@IrisKalmia Yes, in the same way that you told Kos to stop.

@mawr I figured that would be seeking a more reasoned answer than something offhanded, so I gave you a reason.

@IrisKalmia I feel like I stepped on a land mine by even asking, and I'm sorry I did.

@mawr I'm sorry for reacting so harshly and defensively, you have good points throughout and I was walking into it in a poor mood.

@IrisKalmia I'm sorry, too; I wasn't being as charitable or compassionate as I strive to be, and I'm sure that wasn't helping. >..<
