It’s a bubble.
“But the early internet—“
It’s a BUBBLE.
“But the smartphone—“
It’s. A. Bubble.
“But Uber—”
iT’s A bUbBlE.

I was accused of mansplaining on Mastodon once*.
I was hurt. I felt like she had misread my tone, misunderstood my intent. I felt like I was making a positive contribution to the discussion. I didn't think I had done anything wrong.
So you know what I did?
I deleted my post, acknowledged I was wrong, and apologized.
Sometimes, what we do is the effect it has on others. And I've surely gotten away with mansplaining enough times to make up for taking the L once.
