Yes, I screenshotted my reply. I wasn't sure if the jerk off emoji was a better title and I figured this way I get the best of both worlds.

i read it for the articles mom!
edit: just so we're clear, this is a joke about the mens magazines of my youth being indistinguishable from gay porno, because they both depict hot sweaty semi clothed man bods. not a joke conflating masculine insecurity with being gay. carry on
This insecurity keeps entire industries alive

Every day I see more grown adult men use words. There is no excuse for this. Words are for humans. Do you think your ancestors would have been caught dead typing words if the internet existed back then? Return to monke.
Socrates says the thought, but it's clearly a character in a dialogue rather than the actual historical Socrates like in some of Plato's other work.

its emojis
tone markers in text are so helpful for neurodivergent peeps like me o7
You can totally communicate tone through text, it just takes actual effort. [insert condescension emoji]
"Emojis are for children and women"
Apparently young women and teenage girls tend to adopt new linguistic conventions faster than men and older people do. This statement might have been true as recently as 5 years ago, but the social-media-driven acceleration in the evolution of Anglophonic communication has mainstreamed the use of emojis.
Girls are the language anarchists lobbing linguistic Molotovs at grammar Nazis. o7
but have you considered: it was never true.
the position put forward was not one about prevalence of usage, it was one of appropriately gendered action

Man, I still remember hearing my young cousins (11 years old, guys tho) talk about emojis back in like, 2014. It was the first time I'd heard that word.
Back in my day they were all emoticons and all the guys I knew used them. Then everyone started calling them emojis. Nobody asked me. There was no vote.
you dont vote for an emoji.

emotiocon, a convention for hispanic uncles that love punk rock
I still use emoticons, they're cool :D
The 'e' in emoji just means picture, but the 'emot-' in emoticon means 'emotion'.
Far right dude that works for Ben Shapiro. Idk what he does, think he cries about Disney movies being too PC or some shit.
Ah gotcha. God it has to be so fucking easy to be a right wing grifter
was this the trad cath who was interviewed on a lost episode that was so bad they didn't release it
Was it? Oh wow. Either way, which episode did they play that clip of it? Amber stepping in with the "I was fully cognizant of what I was doing when I had my abortion, should I go to prison" was an absolutely incredible moment.
Yeah same. Although I did love the old school blob-moji used for hangouts and Android in like 2010.

Conservative men be on twitter announcing their insecurities to the world and we let them live.
would my great grandfather have used emojis if the internet existed back in 1909? How could one even speculate?
My great grandfathers (to the extent I know about them from family stories) prided themselves on keeping up with the times, reading whatever literature was available in the village. Why would they be afraid of pictures?
