@HeidiHarrisShow Ah, so you don’t like the concept. Got it! What did you think the app would do, based on the name? We’ve not encountered this type of mismatch before. Suggestions for what an app with a name like ours should be doing are welcome!

Want to know how conservative a podcaster is? Check the pronunciation of “omicron” and “Kamala.”

Moderates pronounce more or less correctly, while hard-right folks butcher the terms, seemingly on purpose.

Case in point: @MattWalshBlog, who says “omni-corn” and “cuh-MAY-luh”

Did you predict the #Elections2020 House, Senate, and Presidential results?

If so, which news outlets informed your judgment?

@tryder9 @oblivious_dude No need to be snarky with your LMGTFY link, especially to folks who have only ever given you free stuff! We spend our nights and weekends building these free tools to help promote civil discourse. We don’t charge a thing, but would appreciate kindness in return.

@tryder9 @oblivious_dude Please send us a youtube video that shows how we can solve this! The login page isn't something we control, so I can't imagine how this is something we can fix on our own :/

.@amyklobuchar may officially still be in the running, but @NBCNews is already phasing her out—one syllable at a time.

OTOH, whoever edited this piece also misspelled Barack Obama's name, so perhaps it was just bring-your-kid-to-work day at NBC #FakeNews #FactCheck #SpellCheck

Thought it was going to be a parody about the outrage aimed at centrists candidates. Nope, it was just more polarization, including this gem:

"In general, centrists are furiously opposed to any proposal that would ease the lives of ordinary Americans."
