I never said anything about it being necessary because it changes the meaning in some instances. I think itβs necessary because without it you donβt have a pause, and I like the pause.
Thatβs a silly question, I never said it always changes the meaning. I said it can.
βThe event had a panel of our professors, a doctor and a former sex workerβ.
βGrandma finds inspiration in cooking, her family and her dog.β
Iβve always written how I want my words to be readβeven academic papers. Thatβs the whole point of writing and grammar.
I hate it when people donβt use the Oxford comma. I like the pause and, like you said, it can change the meaning.
I prefer to use grammar as I would like words to be read.
A comma invites a quick pause, a semi-colon a longer pause; an em dash a dramatic pauseβand a period a full breath.
When the Oxford comma is absent no pause.
Party leadership can change anytime with an internal party vote.
Anyone can join a party and vote (you can only join one at a time).
The partyβs new leader becomes PM and will serve until the next federal election or until a vote of no confidence is passed.
Our next election is in Oct.

I like to think people on Bluesky know this. But just in caseβ¦
In Canada we do not vote for our Prime Minister. Ever.
Every 4 years we vote for our local representative and the leader of the party with the most seats becomes the Prime Minister.

Sometimes we forget, how exciting it is to begin.
So we try to start at the end, and miss the whole journey.

White text box with words, βToday I had the thought, "Acting is finding the simplicity in complexity and the complexity in simplicity." Then I wondered if the same could be said for joy. And maybe that's where the magic is.β

I wrote about the weaponization of free speech last summer. Didn't know what to do with it, so itβs sitting in a Google Doc lolβ¦ shorturl.at/F1Pm2
Meanwhile, @mollyjongfast.bsky.social at @vanityfair.com just published a piece on how Trumpworld is waging a war on words. Worth a read. β¬οΈ

Oooh, attention to detail is important!
Some sites make it so complicated!
Landing pages are like dating profiles, if you donβt make it clear who you are and why youβre interesting, people will swipe away.
π©π© Whatβs the biggest red flag you see on landing pages?

On Chinese maps, Taiwan is typically labeled as βTaiwan Province,β reflecting the Chinese governmentβs stance that Taiwan is a province of China rather than an independent entity.
Taiwanese maps and international maps generally label it simply Taiwan.
Sound familiar?
