It took up a lot of horizontal space so I edited it down. I've now changed it back to the original.

But in all seriousness, they have that here in California.

It has a number menu for a billion languages. Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean, Japanese, Thai, Tagalog, etc. etc.

But because there for several billion languages involved, government/forms will often advertise it as "Asian language"

It's one of my favorite things about California. Sometimes I'll get this like packet in the mail about something. And it's really just one page in English and then every other language humanly conceivable, with a lot of them being Asian. Sometimes I make a game of it and try to decipher which is which.

In the past Twitter has seen a lot of tweets, some with video, of any trouble at the polls. But with the changes Musk has already made at Twitter, I wouldn't be surprised if such reports from Dems are suppressed. At least in comparison to RW complaints.

Would you please tweet the info you posted here at @demunderground? And ask everyone to retweet it? Thanks!
