Uhhh... helping?
"THIS"?
No... it's THESE. I have many to be more efficient.
I've compiled MANY over the years to speed things up.
I don't reply in 7 word chicken shit questions, so I need a little more proofing than faggot rich boys need.
Do you not use a spellchecker?
Of course you do. Thunderbird has one.
And that IS a kind of "macro".
And, JUST in case you scoffed and wanted SO fucking much to prove me wrong on that point...
Yes, a spell checker IS CONSIDERED A TYPE OF MACRO. A macro is a set of instructions that are automated to perform a specific
task, and a spell checker is a program that automates the task of checking text for spelling errors.
In the context of word processing and text editing, A SPELL CHECKER IS A TYPE OF MACRO that uses a set of predefined rules and
dictionaries to identify and correct spelling errors. The SPELL CHECKER CAN BE THOUGHT OF AS A MACRO that is executed in the
background, automatically checking the text for errors and suggesting corrections.
LIKE A MACRO... A SPELL CHECKER can be customized and configured to perform specific tasks, such as:
Checking for spelling errors in a specific language or dialect
Ignoring certain words or phrases that are not in the dictionary
Suggesting alternative spellings or corrections
Automatically correcting certain types of errors, such as typos or grammatical errors
It's worth noting that A SPELL CHECKER IS a more complex and sophisticated TYPE OF MACRO, as it uses natural language processing
(NLP) and machine learning algorithms to analyze and understand the text, rather than simply executing a set of predefined
instructions.
In general, A SPELL CHECKER IS THOUGHT OF AS A TYPE OF MACRO that is designed to automate the task of proofreading and editing
text, and to help users improve the accuracy and quality of their writing.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
