ODDITIES and DEMIMONDE

FOUND ONLINE: MLB \\Unintentionally Oddities 2022

Unintentional Oddities sounds right to me.

FOUND ON TWITTER: I mean...this Alex Jones text message archive seems like it might be, you know, a little bit of a Rosetta Stone into the MAGA demimonde.

I didn't recognize demimonde (half-world in French). It means "a group of people on the fringes of respectable society."

CLIENTS FOR UNDER $150

FOUND ONLINE: But today, that showroom is greeNest, a nonprofit that provides home furnishings for transitioning homeless clients for under $150.

The way this is written, it sounds like the clients cost under $150. As I often do, I'd turn this around.

But today, that showroom is greeNest, a nonprofit that provides transitioning homeless clients with home furnishings for under $150.

That way you keep the home furnishings and the cost together.

FOUND ONLINE: You're father getting huge tax breaks ...

The writer meant Your, not You're.
