@grammargirl "Opportunity for whom?" is usually my first thought, and I assume it's not me.

@grammargirl It's such a good show, isn't it.Think it was made before the Blizzard revelations, making it even more insightful.

@grammargirl As an Australian, where "no worries" is used as a generic term of agreement, I feel both attacked and sympathetic. 😅

@futurebird Agreed. Sadly, the only option in a broken electoral system is to vote for the least worst option. (Same here in the UK, with our first-past-the-post and "you only get to vote for your local representative. The latter also allows for tactical voting here.)They'll see it as a reward or, worse, a declare a "mandate" to do whatever they like, but it's this or gifting the win to the far worse option.Protest votes, spoiled ballots or not voting is bonkers in such a broken system.

After 30+ years of using #vi #vim - because vi is on ALL *nix systems (repressing my love for JOE, which mimicked my #WordStar origins on the #Microbee) - I've *finally* decided to check out #Emacs this week.It's been a - um - journey, and a worthwhile one. After all, I just got #Mastodon working inside a *text editor*. Even with the majesty of #Neovim and June Gunn's #vimplugin, I could never have imagined this was possible in an editor.It's never a bad time to learn and expand.
