Content Warning / CW
Use them, use them a lot.
If you think about 'does this need a CW', then it does.
Things you dont want to show to your kids, your mom, your sister in law, they need CW.
Things that are a phobia, food, blood, body horror, heavy topic, politics, death, health related stuff, upsetting story, they need a CW.
This is also not a 'maybe'.
To keep the place nice, we all need to make an effort.
We need to be deliberate about giving people a chance to opt in on those topic.
Thanks

Also it is a fabulous tool.
You can add them/remove them/change them on every toot.
You can make jokes.
You can give your toot context.
You can tell it is a thread, or where you are in a thread.
You can derail a thread and give the original poster a chance to not read your ramblings.
You can tell secrets, only interested people will hear.
