  • they just hit my makeup wall, i’m sensitive

    “subscribe now” pop-ups, cookie hasslers, etc. are the drug store deodorant lockboxes of current web design. apart from the fact that we litigated this in the 90s — you’re looking at the minority of the equation if you think it hasn’t gone too far. i couldn’t care less if your newsletter signup conversion rate goes…

    i can draw a line from cis folks performatively putting pronouns in their email signatures to the current brand of anti-transgenderism flourishing in trump’s second. when i cringe that hard, its more of a flinch, y’know?
