i think the internet could be greatly improved if we just assume that OP is always talking to someone who is not you. if the post is not personally applicable or relevant, cool, this isn't a conversation you're in. this is a strangers' conversation that you're eavesdropping on.

#especially on tumblr where most people treat their blogs like a diary. and posts that escape containment were never meant to be read as #all-encompassing. but also sometimes i see twitter posts that are like hm. this seems weirdly hostile. and it turns out the original contex #was that the op was mad at a very specific person. and it just got spread around because people assumed op was mad at them and decided to #argue. it's fun being part of the larger internet dialogue of course but few people post like they're making a presidential speech #and honestly if they do they either have enough reach that this kind of verbal-editing is necessary. or they're a theatre kid.#beepbeep.txt #weeeeeee i love saying opinions on my blooooog #inspired by two separate people on my dash complaining about random people arguing with them over an accidentally popular post
