# ↩️ indeed.
Also mentioned in #IndieWeb chat^:
“all you have to do is”
“essentially”
Still looking for a category for these words/phrases.
Maybe “trivializers”?

# Being in a “life happens” moment myself (finishing my dissertation), I originally missed Tantek Çelik’s chat conversations & blog post about developing a “life happens” approach to community participation & care on the IndieWeb. I love this idea. http://tantek.com/2021/051/b1/life-happens ( twitter.com/_/status/1376346585022541824)

# @t @kevinmarks I removed almost all instances of “of course” from the Laravel docs for this reason. https://github.com/laravel/docs/pull/4974 I suggest we call it “mountaintopping”. As in, you are on top of the mountain, shouting down to people without gear or experience “step one: basically just climb it”. ( twitter.com/_/status/1376380360662081537)
# I have learnt a lot about science communication over the last 24 hours after showing #Seaspiracy to my non-scientist friends, who generally don’t care or have any interest in marine conservation, getting their feedback and then debriefing them on the issues raised.

# Are there other words like: "basically" "just" "simply" used in explanations/instructions to obscure actual complexity or difficulty? Is there a name for such words? They often shame the reader as a side-effect (if it’s not easy, it must be my fault)

# VERY fun hack: using lazy loading turbo-frames as a queue in dom. Each row needs to be imported. Frame source is api (returns html) and loads when visible. Scroll the page and one-by-one it imports your images. ZERO JS.
