Surely for such a common character it would be easier to make a new keyboard layout that always types the preferred apostrophe when that key is pressed?

I’m having the same issue, unfortunately

Maybe we can make a new post with the exact same link. “Mildly infuriating: this mildly infuriating article presents a login page to other users for no apparent reason”

Paradox’s games don’t really do storytelling in a traditional sense. They’re strategy and management games. Some of them are pretty damn good at creating stories dynamically through gameplay, or providing a frame upon which you can create your own stories, but they were never intended to be narrative experiences

Mauritius also claims the islands, as they were part of British Mauritius up until Mauritian independence

A = straight man who performs in drag shows, interested in B B = straight woman, interested in C C = straight man who doesn’t know what a drag queen is and thinks they’re women (a genderswapped Mulan situation), interested in A’s drag persona

I have no idea if this is what python actually meant by “a Mulan situation” but now this feels like I’m trying to solve a sudoku or something

The dude went to a drag queen show without understanding what the whole concept was
