@AlliFlowers See, Republicans. Not so hard, was it?
@jann I couldn’t resist. I have a folder with the earliest email of 2009!
@jann I’ve got April 2019 in my inbox. I’m afraid to look in some of my folders.
@SandyKendell@qoto.org One can only hope that the people who would brick their phones are the ones who will never figure out how to install an app outside of the App Store. (Yes, I’m talking about my mother.)

Key reforms to the Electoral Count Act would close loopholes Trump and his allies tried to exploit in 2020.
This may be our last chance to protect our democracy before the next election.
Please call your senators and urge them to get this done: (202) 224-3121
@dhstokyo And all of them are qualified and approved by the ABA!

BREAKING: US finally sending Ukraine the Patriot missile defense system, the gold standard for surface-to-air defense. This will help Ukraine defend against Russian missile and drone attacks.
Another potential game-changer in Ukraine's fight against the Russian invasion. 🇺🇸🇺🇦

Text from my dad, I hope this is true
I just heard that somebody wrote an academic paper in first person plural, we did this and we did that, but he was the sole author. The editor pointed out that the journal's policy forbade writing in the plural if there was only one author. So he added his cat as co-author and it was accepted🙂

Apple Music launches collection of playlists with songs perfect for ‘Sing’ karaoke feature https://9to5mac.com/2022/12/13/find-apple-music-sing-karaoke-songs/
Unbelievable. I wonder how many bricked iPhones we’ll hear about after this. https://9to5mac.com/2022/12/13/apple-alternative-app-stores-iphone/
Haven’t we been here before?

Here's a new rule: If someone sues to contest an election, and it's ruled to be frivolous, with no basis in fact, that candidate gets disqualified from running for office again, ever.
And the lawyers should be automatically fined and referred for disciplinary proceedings.

It’s hard to believe that we used to just answer the phone without having any idea who was on the other end. And we had to answer because we didn’t even have answering machines so we’d never know who it was or if it was important unless that person called back.
Then we’d get annoyed if a person didn’t have voicemail. After that, we’d get annoyed if they actually picked up and we couldn’t just leave a message.
Now calling without texting first to see if someone is free seems kind of rude.

Got it. Yup tap the screen to bring up an extra menu.
Just updated to iPad and iOS 16.2 and I fee like an idiot cause I can’t figure out Sing. Anyone able to do it?

It would appear the Biden Administration is about to send Patriot Missile systems to Ukraine.
This is excellent news for the Ukrainian people and a huge blow to Putin. It’s time to level up the battle space. Plans could be finalized as early as this week.
