A thread often reveals its participants more than its subject, but that does not make the subject irrelevant.

@Twig@clew.lol the distinction I was making is that the thread content is an artifact of who chose to show up, but the thread subject is what the artifact happens to be attached to. the participants are the causally-upstream variable, the subject is downstream. that's not the same as saying the participants ARE the subject
