    Not everyone appreciates the language choice, so I figured I tag it. Relatively tame compared to most stuff that gets tagged here, but couldn’t hurt.

      I honestly disagree which is why I downvoted your post. I can see NSFW “inflation” with tags sticked on pretty much anything these days. In my opinion NSFW tag should only be used for things genuinely “not suitable for work” - gore, porn etc. Otherwise it is misleading and losing its meaning.

        Yeah I’ve wrestled with this. Whenever I post I often get in my head trying to think of the “lowest common denominator” type user. One who will make a scene, or report, for things most of our user base would be fine with. Like I could see someone who doesn’t react well to autism being used in humor or something like that. Do I at all agree with that, no, not really, but as one of the mods I think of it like saving myself (mostly others because I’m often slow on the draw for checking reports tbh) potential future work. I’ll untag this tho. I think if I instead have someone complaining about being too heavy handed with the tag I can not worry about folks on the other end of that.

          Don’t untag on my account, it is your post. At least you have good reasoning and I understand why you tagged it even if I wouldn’t. I am removing the downvote now.
