I can appreciate content warnings (CWs). A lot. And I’m not a person who necessarily needs any for my wellbeing.

But I do often avoid opening posts that warn about ‘uspol’. That does make me feel better.

There are people who need CWs for their wellbeing. For reasons I do not always understand. And I do not *have* to understand. CWs remind me of that.

Content warnings are like adding a layer of compassion and consent, and I personally can not see a reason to object to that.

@axbom I should use CWs more probably. It's considerate to start a talk with an introduction, add alt tags, and add a descriptive subject line to emails and #Usenet posts. Do they get in the way of witty repartee among friends!
