Togedemaru, the roly-poly Pokémon, looking somewhat pale, with a darker than usual spot on the top of his head, and two visible sharp white fangs. Set against a red gradient background.

For the incoming message.casa mailbox hosting (see https://social.pollux.casa/@adele/statuses/01K7J5JX8JHSPNE8RMPQT9J8RT ), I plan to use a different character for the "plus addressing".

pseudo+amazon@message.casa is too easy to break by email address scrappers. They remove the + and the following before selling your address.

I would like to use a different character, but this one could not be present in the main pseudo to avoid naming conflict.

first.lastname-amazon@message.casa if I set the dash as separator (but no dash in the pseudo).

first-lastname.amazon@message.casa if I set the dot as separator (but no dot in the pseudo)

I don't know which is the best option 🤔

“signals a potential split of the Chinese-owned, Netherlands-based company’s operations after the Dutch government this month took management control of the chipmaker.

The seizure came after Washington warned that Nexperia would not be removed from its export control list if its Chinese chief executive remained in charge. In response, Beijing blocked most of the chipmaker’s final products from leaving China.”

While we spectate on The East Wing being torn down, it isn’t just another hallway, it’s where Eleanor Roosevelt built the modern Office of the First Lady, where WWII bunkers were hidden, and where the public enters the People’s House. Erasing it is rewriting history.

This is great work, America but I know we can do better.

An image showing a graphic titled “TRUMP APPROVAL RATING” with the AP and NORC at the University of Chicago logos. The results read: “APPROVE 37%” and “DISAPPROVE 61%.” At the bottom, small text notes the survey was conducted October 9–13 with 1,289 adults. A photo of Donald Trump in a dark suit and red tie appears on the left side of the image.
