@PrezWisdom My favorite is Taft's, it looks one of those glyphs you should be able to read upside down too 😂

[Ex Libris Gio @ExLibrisGio]

@PrezWisdom Aha, Cleveland twice, I see what you did there 😉

In World War I, we had a British general named French (sir John French) and a German general named François (Hermann von François) #WorldWar1

“It is time for everybody in our legislature including the ones who would like to walk around with an ar15 lapel pin, it is time for every one of them to face the voters and if they're not going to do something, then voters are going to have to vote them out”

inasmuch I would love to move away from @evernote (clunky desktop UI, puzzling development strategy, poor customer service, and... doubled price) I have to say @obsdmd mobile search is not ready to handle 12,000+ notes.

Now, just as then: "I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest." #churchill

Prominent anti-#LGBTQ+ bigot, racist, former Gitmo torturer, and all-around scumbag buffoon @RonDeSantis won't even talk to @SecretaryPete about Florida's transportation issues. https://t.co/VCmh7EAZss

this would be a good time for Modelo to run a trans-supportive ad

What are four presidential biographies you would 100% read again? I’ll go first:

greatly enjoyed "The Joy of X" by @stevenstrogatz. I have always been intrigued by the use of 'self-evident' in the Declaration of Independence, and I thought it was one of the edits by Benjamin Franklin, replacing 'sacred and undeniable'? 1/2

[Ex Libris Gio @ExLibrisGio]

Either way, it is a great contribution from the scientific language and a magnificent way to declare independence from human or divine power. 2/2

@candice_millard 6) will you need to share and collaborate with others
7) do you care about customizing the appearance of the app (font size, type, color etc)

But in the end I recommend to just try a few and see how they fit your note-taking style. 3/3

[Ex Libris Gio @ExLibrisGio]

@candice_millard 3) do you need to access and search your notes from your phone/tablet
4) do you often clip content from the web
5) do you need to store other files with your notes (videos, PDFs, slides, spreadsheets etc)
2/3

This is how our Gibbon describes it, in Chapter 41: https://t.co/8frBQILBg9

On or around this date in 536, the Roman army of Belisarius stormed the city of Naples and put many to the sword, ending a 21 day siege and opening up the road to the Eternal City. Why such a bloody resolution to this siege? Read on. #Roman #Byzantine #History #Italy 🇮🇹

✅ Done!

Loved "Destiny of the Republic" by @candice_millard, incredible story. Will be reading about Bell and Lister now!

Doctor Willard Bliss was born Doctor (Doctor was his first name). Dr. Doctor Willard Bliss treated (possibly negligently) James Garfield after he was shot in July 1881
