- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

They come with a red button, and you're allowed to press it. You can't be forced into a call, you have to provide consent
I leave it on silent. I don't want the ringtone to bother me either. My job is an excellent example. People at work think "speaking to someone about their question" is the ideal thing to do. It takes me at least twice as long to do tasks with interruptions. Just put your query in an email or your job on my task list and I'll do it in turn. Do not try to call me.
At home I'm even less likely to use phones for calls unless it's my parents or brothers. I don't want anyone to bother my playing with kids, gaming, exercising, pooping, eating, chores, etc. I try to deal with everything I can through messages and emails.
