- If I make a spelling, grammar, or word choice error, or am unable to find a noun and have to describe the thing, then my entire point is invalidated. If I fail to accurately translate my shapeless, interwoven web of thought-color-shape-idea into paragraphs the other party can understand, they now have reason to regard everyone who holds my position as too stupid to be allowed to speak.
- Insisting on a debate can be sometimes (but not always) a tactic used by people who want to wear out the other side.
- The same reason I block, mute, and ignore advertisements: I get to decide how to spend my attention.

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.
