It's a kind of archaic and formal. Not used as much anymore
Usage notes edit The diaeresis ⟨◌̈⟩ is sometimes used in native words to separate two adjacent vowels with different pronunciations (e.g. coöperate and reënter). It has been mostly replaced by the use of a hyphen (co-operate and re-enter) or by no indication at all (cooperate and reenter). The accent mark is still used in a few publications, notably The New Yorker.

Where does that leave us 37 year olds, Jerry? 😭
The Simpsons "Won't somebody please think of the children?" meme with the text "Won't somebody please think of the 37 year olds?" written on it instead.

Week 34 watching female/femme directed films:

Double Agent 73 (1974)
Dir. Doris Wishman
Poster for Double Agent 73. A hand drawing of Chesty Morgan appears behind the title. She's holding a small revolver and naked except a trench coat drapped on her shoulders. The number 73 in the title partially covers her body. In the bottom left corner is a small hand drawing of two men, one handing another a suitcase. Both men look like they are in a hurry and looking around to make sure no one is looking.

My political analysis: Fetterman sucks 🙃

Keeping a show government open has not stopped Trump from invading blue cities and bulldozing free speech. There aren't checks and balances anymore anyway. Keeping the government open no matter what is capitulation at this point.
Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D) says the repeated Democratic warnings that President Trump is trying to turn the United States into an “autocracy” are at odds with the hard-line stance Democratic leaders have taken on a government funding bill, which is likely to result in a shutdown that would empower Trump.
