@nikodemus I prefer M-dashes and semicolons; gotta spice up those independent clauses and keep the audience onboard with your complex sentence structure— especially if you think of something loosely related after you’ve formed the core thought.

@tsia_ @nikodemus my brain has no idea what’s bonus content and what’s vital information related to the core thought which absolutely cannot be left out or the entire thought is unintelligible @Linza @nikodemus I use all of them (and even modified my keyboard layout to have both n and m-dash on it)… |
@Linza @nikodemus I don't like M-dashes and semicolons for that because then it's not obvious where each level of "bonus content" ends. (yes, I sometimes nest my bonus content)
