Learning how to translate parliamentary debates properly...

"the minister is taking liberties with the facts" is definitely different from the banned expression "the minister is a liar" 😂

@stephanie so, are you translating from English to English? 😂

Folks, do you use gmail's "snooze" and "schedule send" features to bring things back to the top of your inbox at the right time?

Like, day before a meeting, or "in three months" when you said you'd check back with someone?

My brain loves this. 🙂

@BsCreativeLife I have set up my gmail client on Androis so Swipe-Left calls up tyr Snooze interface. Super easy!

Say it with me: Everything out of their mouths is a lie and/or projection/confession.

“A judge ruled that the Georgia Republican Party’s first vice chairman, Brian K. Pritchard, violated state election laws when he voted 9 times while serving probation for a felony check forgery sentence”

Via Democracy Docket:

Federal court allows to use its current congressional map for the 2024 election, despite previously ruling that the districts are racially gerrymandered and discriminate against Black voters, because of delays from the U.S. Supreme Court.

🧵 … did you know: your may allow markdown? <-- see what I did there?

▪ in settings: set text editing to Markdown (you can always change it per-post, too)
▪ Put an asterisk in front of a word for italic, and put another one after a word to end the italic string. NO space between asterisk & word!
▪ two * = bold
▪ three * = bold and italic
▪ two ~ for strikout, etc.

Be sure to check your first posts, in case you did something unexpected. Ex: 'dash+space' =

@dan613 oh 😕 so I see my own markdown with formatting, but you don't? 😟

@deborahh@mstdn.ca avatar

@dan613 mine allows me to post Markdown, and displays posts with it. Dunno if it meets your criteria: @megalodon on Android.

Q: do screenreaders generally handle markdown well? Or does it mess up the flow?

@dan613 thanks! 🙂

On our drive up to Canada, we spotted a Cybertruck on the road. Whoa. It looked like what a 1950s sci-fi movie’s idea of a 1970s car would look like. What a laughable eyesore.

For those suffering from Trumps reduced bond. May this help your suffering.

@Jerry I assume* the goal is to be able to say "we gave him every chance to comply" and avoid overturn later? What a circus. Oh well.

Now that’s some serious bullshit

Can Post Smaller in Case, Court Rules

Trump must post a bond of $175M within 10 days as he appeals the >$454M judgment against him.

@pmonks @cynblogger @Nonilex and, iirc, at $200K interest a day, in 10 days he'll owe another million.
