Point being: people make mistakes. Even people who really, truly should know better.

You might be tired.
You might be unwell.
You might be distracted.

You might click the link.

And so might people you're tasked with helping and protecting.

Keep that in mind. It's never just the person's fault.

Design systems and policies in a way that takes this into account, always. Add a little friction, it really helps.

Because… people make mistakes. Even people who really, truly should know better.

Looks like the only solution that might work is to modify the actual DNS records to redirect specifically to "https://www.eviscerati.org/comics" . I have no idea how to do that, or if it's even possible (honestly I've only ever seen domain names point to ip addresses). I barely know how to modify .htaccess, and it usually requires my site go offline for hours while I figure out how to fix whatever it is I initially tried to do.

So for the moment all I can do is be annoyed. So I am annoyed. 3/fin
