I keep a dictionary close at hand and constantly use it, helps do exactly what you described, get to precise meanings.

As do I. However, a definition only does not fully convey meaning as relates to the nuances of communication/interaction.
I am grateful for this thread for many reasons, the most recent of which is a clearer understanding of the word terse.
Rolling Stone Promotes Child Rape.
Slate Defends Human Trafficking.

ThanQ, blu, for the reminder regarding post 1H at the beginning of this thread and going all the way back to 2019:

The Elements of Style by William Strunk, Jr and E.B.White is a great book about writing clearly and just enough, not too much.

In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled Q ~ Trust Trump's Plan ~ 07/10/2023 Vol.465, Q Day 2073, Danie_2023 wrote: |
Which begs the question (at least, in my mind).... how many security folks will those 13 families need to protect them.... if We, the People ever do rise up and just say “No” to them and their agenda? |
Saying 'No' to their agenda doesn't require the elites to have security teams.
Trump is pursuing a 'rule of law' strategy so We the People are not going to 'rise up' in a threatening way. Instead we are steadily withdrawing our consent to be ruled as more is revealed about them.
Our 2A rights are self-defense. No need for us to form uncoordinated lawless militias against the elites. We're not vigilantes. Trump will be able to direct MAGA away from violence and toward the rule of law. The hatred toward the elites would be profound though, so they are already becoming hesitant to walk down the streets as Q said. I think its why Hollyweird and Disney seem to be dying. Starving the elites from obedience and patronage is working.
I find this amusing as I hardly complain of people, just scroll on by.
I am on the list?

Yeah, that’s all fine and dandy.... assuming that the radical left does not steal the next election, as well as the last two. But in case you haven’t noticed, the radical left has already thrown out the “rule of law” in favor of their favorite form of government...
a totalitarian dictatorship, banana republic style.
Methinks you might be suffering from a case of normalcy bias. Reality sucks. Trust me on that.
“Oh, are you a baddie too?”
You and me Babe, lol.
I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue & stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are… pic.twitter.com/oAuTnxZldf— Tulsi Gabbard 🌺 (@TulsiGabbard) October 11, 2022
Dream on little Tulsi!
With my career in the fire service and 9-1-1, we did everything through acronyms. Then FEMA wanted us all to use “plain language”. That didn’t take too well, and FEMA now has a very thick manual of acronyms....so much for plain language.
