DrawExpress is very intuitive to use on a phone, but the files may not be editable in other software. It exports as SVG, PNG, or pdf.

This was Catholicism. He’s a smart guy and I’m pretty sure he figured it out. Did not become a priest, though, so maybe his mom was right.

I don’t see anything in the Biden bill about deporting people who have been living in the US for any amount of time. It seems to be all about quickly turning around new migrants during “surges” and changes to the way new cases are handled. I’m not saying I support the bill, but it does not seem to be a mass deportation bill. Tell me if I’m wrong.

My grandma in the 30s had to hide all evidence of menstruation from just one of her two younger brothers, the explanation being he was intended for the priesthood. I’m not saying it makes sense.

I saw a local one advertised on nextdoor and I went to the site because there are rules for advertisers on that app and I wanted to complain. It is exactly as I’d heard-- telling people there’s no reason to be seen quickly and will not be given appointment within two weeks, calling themselves a clinic but no statement of any medical service. But they said so little about what they actually do that I couldn’t find any good grounds for complaint to the app as also the app’s own content categories, “health” or something, was too vague to be considered misleading. I complained anyway that they were promoting pseudo medicine and political activity, but didn’t get a reply.

This is the truth. Not even a full grown person, not even your just-born child, no one can compel you to give your blood to save their life much less to keep them alive inside your own body for nine months.

If they think a fetus has the same right to life as any person, they are free to help it survive using their own resources, just get it the fuck out of my body first.

Yeah, I hadn’t heard of it, but it looks really cool. Gonna have to try that out.

I use osmand on Android. Bit of a leaning curve to start as you need to download the maps you want and set up features, but then it is available offline as well and can include topographical and trails or other data if you’re not just traveling in cities.

The other complication is that the second map is so potato you can’t see what color the smaller dots are and I think it gives overall a bluer impression than it would at higher quality.

The way they are so evenly situated, I think they are just putting a population-proportioned dot in the center of each county. In meant states, counties are pretty much equal sized squares with varying amounts of people in them.

They are probably coloring whole counties, where the second map just makes a dot for each country proportional to population.

Loads better than Bernie. Doubt on shots, downplay injury, remind people that for some, civility and respect are re-commitments. Here’s a wet-wipe, Donald, have a nice day.

I feel like it’s at least possible that this will work like that trick of if you can’t decide between two things, toss a coin and call it and then notice how you feel. Like a coin was tossed here and maybe some of these dead inside non-voters will feel something, maybe an anxiety, the absence of relief, wistful. You can act on that. It’s not too late.

Like I’m sure the secret service tells themselves they are protecting the institution, but are they?

I think the 5g value really depends on like the exact neighborhood you’re in, based on proximity to the towers, so it makes sense for them to target by address. Also, as a Nextdoor reader, I can tell you lots of people have no idea what their options are and if they weren’t exactly the same people who think a doorbell is a prelude to murder these sales might actually make sense.

Put a lid on for the first minute, or a small lid right on the sandwich

I’m guessing your readers still encounter the hard sales pitch of the Medium membership regardless of your own monetization, that’s all.

I made an paid account with medium to see posts related to my work, and I really enjoy it. I get an email every day with a handful of articles based on what I said my interests are/followed authors and I can read them with none of the issues other people are talking about (obviously because I’ve already caved to their business model, just pointing out the annoyances do actually stop, unlike some premium services).

If you think your readers will follow you to a paid platform, I don’t see anything wrong with it. But if they don’t want to pay, it sounds like it will be a bad experience. I would be skeptical of having a broader reach, also, since there is a lot of competition, not all of it human.

Don’t take this too personally, but I started liking brighter colors when I began to notice their effects on my mood and to manage mild depression, especially seasonal moodiness.

I get notifications, but generally don’t read them until I’m taking a break, maybe 4 times a day. No one has complained. If they did, I’d tell them to call me if it’s an emergency. I’m guessing about half would never make a phone call if they could help it, so it’s a good bluff. Also I don’t mind receiving phone calls.
