Good luck!

Over here the reaction has been “They want us to think critically? What are they hiding‽” “They’re teaching kids to think critically? That’s indoctrination!”

In the legal sense, a pardon is not an admission of guilt (see #4 ), but socially it bears the resemblance of an admission by someone who has not yet been charged or convicted. Given that these folks were already found legally guilty of a “crime” that is no longer a crime, I don’t see how accepting a pardon is an admission of anything other than they had been wronged.

But I’m just some straight cis white dude in the internet and my feelings are not the ones that matter in this matter.

Meanwhile, in English:

Yoo-hoo! Thereau thoroughly thought ‘twas you, Hugh, who threw Theaux through the tough dough trough.

Thou laughed, though! No? He ought not’ve thought aught of it.

I hate that punctuation is “supposed” to go inside quotation marks. If you doing anything more complex than a simple statement of a quote, you run into cases where it doesn’t make sense to me.

Did he say “I had pancakes for supper?” and Did he say “I had pancakes for supper”? mean different things to me.

Similarly: That jerk called me a “tomato!” and That jerk called me a “tomato”!

It feels to me that the first examples add emphasis to the quotes that did not exist when originally spoken, whereas the second examples isolate the quote, which is the whole point of putting it in quotation marks.

The doctor believed that the abnormality seen on his scans “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the deposition.

Or fatal food poisoning.
