Welcome to the Grand Chamber of Renaissance Jest!

Pray, revel 'mongst ye memes and discourse of the Renaissance age (Anno 1350 to Anno 1600).

Heed this decree, ye merry souls of jest, Who venture forth in time's wide gallery: Should one amongst ye post images bereft Of Renaissance's rich tapestry, Prepare! For in the comment halls below, Shall olden fruits and vegetables grow. ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฅ•๐ŸŒฝ

The squashes ripe, and turnips of yore, ๐Ÿฅ”๐Ÿ† Shall fill the chambers of discourse more, A reminder quaint of the era we adore. So keep thy imagery within the bound Of timeโ€™s rich veil, where our mirth is found

Herein, we adhere to the noble statutes of Feddit.UK:

Rejoice in the spirit of enlightenment and mirth, as we journey 'cross the ages of yore.

Imo apostrophes arent necessary in informal settings. How many words can still be understood if you leave out the apostrophe?
I dont usually bother with them unless theyre inserted automatically when im dictating or when im typing on my physical keyboard. When im typing out words manually on this bullshit touchscreen keyboard (like right now) i just cant be bothered. Its already too much effort and once again: how necessary are they actually? You tell me.

I may not like it, but I think it's probably the right move. Putting apostrophes in unnecessarily can cause confusion. Leaving them out gives me a minor contextual puzzle that takes a microsecond.
