Dear MS Word,
Nobody likes the “Another comment is in progress” situation. Also, a lot of us don’t have screens that are two feet wide to be able to read them.

Thanks.

Friends, please never use phrasing like "[sepsis] rose just 29%" ever again.

I get that it's dramatically lower than 63%, but there's nothing "just" about it.

✅ GOOD NEWS ALERT: We finally made it to the last day of January—and even better, HJ1, the Constitutional Amendment for Reproductive Freedom, has officially passed the Virginia Senate! 🎉

We know, January felt like it was 573 days long, but this victory makes it all worth it.

I cannot fathom what the women in this situation have gone through. As a writer who felt the kind of connection - through his work - that made me want to write more and have the same impact, I’m hurting in my own, lesser, way. This Thread helped me make sense of that.

On Twitter, I always did #JoinIn on Christmas day - there are lots of people out there having a difficult day, whether they're alone or because the family are overwhelming, etc, so it's worth pinning this if you think you might want it. Lots of us will be on there. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Alone or lonely at Christmas? New to social media? There’s a great tradition with the hashtag #joinin, you just search for it and see lots of friendly messages. Someone has also created a feed here:
