Honestly, I use Word or I do it on my phone where the diacritics are more easily accessed. Hope that helps! Enjoy the book!😃

I get diplomatic immunity (at least theoretically), but fleeing the scene and the country then refusing to apologize to the parents is more than embarrassing, more than crass or cowardly, it's craven (and in this case probably racist too). #shameonyou #USStateDept

The way "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street (1960)" was prescient then but is still perfectly applicable in 2025, a whole 55 years later, is frightening. #TwilightZoneMarathon

It's good but you may not be able to enjoy it properly if you dislike Lakeith so viscerally. 😄

That's the thing about a good diner, isn't it? Everyone has their favorites and at a good diner all of it tastes good!

It's like ppl forgot that not only was there a Black Twitter but it's Black folks (the kids generally) that legitimize a platform. If they were smart, they'd see the growth of #Blacksky and breathe a sigh of relief that this site's gonna make it.

I think the most American thing about me is my love for a diner. I get very patriotic when it comes down to a locally owned restaurant that serves breakfast all day. Bottomless coffee. You can even get beer/wine at some. Sorry but that’s as great as America is ever gonna get.

People are always looking for a means to exclude rather than include, unfortunately.

I'm doing not "real reading" all the time and my TBR and life in general is better for it. Judge me if you wish...

I just can’t believe we’re still doing audiobooks aren’t real reading

at the end of the day, they are incapable of being satisfied by each others' company... and we are not.

that is the root of the panic. their entire community is based on shared hatred. deprived of targets, all they can do is stare at each other & fight each other.

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.

Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky
