Also, what's the alternative being promoted? If responding to, debunking, and rebuking the lies of Trump/Vance is "pointing fingers" and adding to negative discourse, then are they suggesting to just shut up about it and let the lies go unchecked? How does that serve anyone's interest?

Feels like normative bias and the naive belief that Trump can't cause any real damage and everything will be fine in the end.

Curse words themselves don't reduce the impact of a sentence on their own. Context is important.

I'll try ask this in a different way: can you think of a time when a curse word seemed to fit the context of the point being made, or enhanced the impact, or felt powerful or eloquent? Can you remember and share the context of it?

Are you saying there's never a time where a curse word is appropriate, mr_no_swearing?

"I have the concept of a plan" is fine tho.

She should have just said that she has the concept of a plan and then pivoted to whatever single issue she feels is polling well for her 🙄

You're talking about a different issue. It just happens to feature a lot of cursing. But cursing itself does not make a remark less clever.

I agree that cursing is often used as a replacement for "um". But you ever really appreciate someone who knows how and when to curse, with intention and as an infliction? It's a joy to behold.

The price hurt. But the flipside is I use this every day for multiple hours so in the long run its worth it.

Others do show interest but are immediately turned off by the price. Unfortunately it keeps it niche.

I use a Supernote Nomad which is (IMO) their more capable competitor. I'm a messy thinker and a messy writer so the ability to scribble things down then move and resize paragraphs and easily tidy things up is great. I can have multiple notebooks and Supernote allows you to set headings, use tags, and create links between notes/notebooks to easily navigate, find, and reference things. It also lets me select text and add it to a built in reminder app so I have a systemwide list of things I need tondo with due dates etc. The reminder links to the note you created it from so you can easily refresh yourself on content.

The Nomad is also small, like a travel notebook, so it's always with me at work. It has a lovely vegan leather book-style case, the stylus is a chunky metal pen with a ceramic tip, and the Nomad has a texture on it that depresses like paper as you write. So it's also just a really nice and straightforward writing experience when you need it to be, with digital conveniences a few taps away.

Why on Earth would you say that, unless you think your opinion is important and valid and worthy of being heard? Yet you out here arguing other people's opinions aren't. Wow, great mind. Cry about strawmen a bit more.
