""We danced otenga, dance of the shoulders
for our women are winnowed like fine millet,
when they dance dodo, the feminine dance,
we count our cows to the last village of Yimbo!"" — Jan 19, 2019 09:14PM

""Many word-processing applications automatically make superscripts of -nd, -rd, -st, or -th after a number. But the convention in legal writing is to leave these suffixes on the baseline. So change the settings to avoid all superscripts with ordinals."

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
