We've come a long way from cave drawings and hieroglyphics. We've developed languages capable of expressing tiny details in amazing clarity; succinctly, pointedly, and without confusion as to their meaning.
And yet there is a whole new wave of people unable to use those languages correctly or even rudimentarily who drag civilization backwards by returning to hieroglyphics.
I'm almost of the opinion we've reached "peak human" and are now backsliding. Yes, of course it's self inflicted - how else could we as a species do an 'about face' and head back to cave dwelling? However it happens and whomever is responsible, here we are... and we're losing ground fast.
Nah, but it's good to rile up the monkeys every once in a while. Else they sit around jacking and jillies and slipping into the photon coma. Stirs up their blood. Fires a neuron or two.
Language fails us again and again, how often do we have to compare things to other feelings of sensation? Miscommunications? How short do words fall time and time again? A fool believes our words are enough, like a haggard face cant speak volumes with more clarity without a single word being said.
I keep thinking about this because it's so fucking funny. "We've invented a way to reintroduce some of the emotional nuance innate in vocal communication and add further symbolic references to text!" "My god, you're an imbecilic caveman! You're destroying civilization!"

And things like emojis are leading the charge.
If I had a jack off hand motion emoji I would post it but you'll have to settle for me simply saying you sound up your own ass
big emoji
If you have the black background for Lemmy on then the
emoji looks like a red hand jerking a phantom dick
big emoji
Was added (yesterday I think), so now you can!
Greatest day of my life
See how much more expressive those words were?! Fucking excellent job !
Way to fucking go Bro or Bra !!! Way - to - fucking - go!
Now THAT'S the way to express yourself. It impresses the ladies too.
I prefer gender neutral terms, please. I'm nonbinary
... and all points in between. That should cover "human". And you're definitely that.
Of all the things to get Ted Kaczynski over, emojis is easily the funniest one

This is a 200iq moment, the logic and eloquence is exquisite but like get over yourself or some shit..
Ah! part of the digression. The digression speaks. Alas, all... the digressions express themselves.

Your subjectivity is showing. And it's not as wise as you think.

'Emojis represent the backsliding of great human society'
You defeated emojis, because I have no face for this
probably huge if not viewed on Hexbear
Might suffice.
Something like that!
Also imagine not viewing everything on hexbear
