CONTEST IS CLOSED! Thank you to everyone who participated whether they were sharing their story or supporting those who were. I couldn't choose the winners myself, so I let the raffler do it. I would love to be able to give you all semicolons for Christmas. ππ
I'm going to do a serious contest on a subject that is very personal and important to me. The holidays are not wonderful for everyone. I want to acknowledge those who are struggling. I know it's hard, but you are not alone. I'm here, and I know there are others here for you as well.
At a very dark time in my life, I found great comfort in the Semicolon Movement, or Project Semicolon. If you are unfamiliar with it, the Semicolon Movement, it is a movement for people struggling with mental health issues, suicide, self-injury, and addiction.
βA semicolon is used when an author couldβve chosen to end their sentence, but chose not to. The author is you and the sentence is your life.β
I chose to continue my story and to continue fighting. My life changed so much after that. I am grateful for that choice. So that's why the semicolon means so much to me. I also love the phrase, "And so she goes on."
For this contest I'm not asking you to do anything but have a semicolon item on your WL $15 and under including shipping. and put a ; in your comment.
If you feel like sharing, that's OK. If you don't, that's OK too! If you just want to leave a ; and move on, that works.
Interaction with each other is up to you as well.
Tag friends if you'd like.
US only. π
Contest ends Saturday at 11:59pm PST.
Thank you for taking the time to read my contest post. I know it's not my normal kind of contest, but it's been on my heart to do. You are all amazing and wonderful! ππ

I should have paid more attention to my English class, but I cannot understand how to use these three characters: (β ; ,) Can someone just explain it to me? Yes, I know I should google it, and google is not helping at all. Thanks in advance!
Iβve been wondering what yβall think of the semicolon. More specifically, how do you feel about getting a semicolon tattoo? But I do want to know your opinion about the semicolon and the organization in general.
I was curious cause I think I saw a couple people take up issue with it a fews years ago, though I canβt remember what issues they had with it. But for the most part, I donβt see anyone pointing out any glaring issues, and itβs been a while since I saw anyone have issues with it.
For those who donβt know about the semicolon, it is meant to symbolize raising awareness for and fighting against addiction, mental illness, suicide, and self harm.
we've had enough time to digest the music, so i wonder, what's your favorite b-side from semicolon and why?
(this is going to be really hard for me to choose ;-;)
let's discuss! i'll go first: it would be blasphemy to say that i have one single favorite out of all of them so i am kind of regretting my choices now but! i will go with the b-side that i like the most right now! which is hey buddy! i personally believe that this is the closest seventeen has ever come in recent years to their freshteen roots with its loud and energetic sound and upbeat, friendly vibe! and i love how sweet the lyrics are! it's really catchy and vibrant and even though it's only 97 line singing it, i feel like it sort of is able to encapsulate what makes seventeen seventeen!
I have it in my head that you're not supposed to use commas in a sentence that comes after a semicolon. Examples:
I have painted the house; I still need to sand, polish, and stain the floors.
I can't stand these clowns in Washington; I wish I could stomp on their oversized shoes, honk their red noses, and squirt them with seltzer.
Are those correct? They certainly look correct, but I feel like they are breaking some obscure rule.
Can I get away without using semicolon at all in writing?
I like home run and all my love , ah love my personal favs but hengarae was amazing. That album brought so much to my life , it had everything to help me through 2020. Maybe thats why compared to LR semicolon was lackluster, atleast to me. The message was something i seriously needed at that time and i kidult is my comfort song. All there songs live rent free in my head but with hengarae i cant choose any song i love them all. This post just became a place for me to gush about hengarae. So these are my top bsides
And their japanese songs are always top tier.
Toss it in your sentence to feign intelligence; this can make your argument appear better.
Stick it in your resume or CV; you will sound more sophisticated.

RULES FOR USING SEMICOLONS
A semicolon is most commonly used to link (in a single sentence) two independent clauses that are closely related in thought.When a semicolon is used to join two or more ideas (parts) in a sentence, those ideas are then given equal position or rank.
Some people write with a word processor; others write with a pen or pencil.
Use a semicolon between two independent clauses that are connected by conjunctive adverbs or transitional phrases.
However they choose to write, people are allowed to make their own decisions; as a result, many people swear by their writing methods.
Use a semicolon between items in a list or series if any of the items contain commas.
There are basically two ways to write: with a pen or pencil, which is inexpensive and easily accessible; or by computer and printer, which is more expensive but quick and neat.
Use a semicolon between independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction if the clauses are already punctuated with commas or if the clauses are lengthy.
Some people write with a word processor, tablet, or a even a phone; but others, for different reasons, choose to write with a pen or pencil.
AVOID USING A COMMA WHEN A SEMICOLON IS NEEDED:
Incorrect:Β The cow is brown, it is also old. Correct:Β The cow is brown; it is also old.
Whatβs going on here?Β Both parts of the sentence are independent clauses, and commas shouldΒ notΒ be used to connect independent clauses if there is no coordinating conjunction. This mistake is known as aΒ comma splice.
Incorrect:Β I like cows, however, I hate the way they smell. Correct:Β I like cows; however, I hate the way they smell.
Whatβs going on here?Β The conjunctive adverbΒ howeverΒ signals a connection between two independent clauses, and commas shouldΒ notΒ be used to connect independent clauses if there is no coordinating conjunction.
Incorrect:Β I like cows: they give us milk, which tastes good, they give us beef, which also tastes good, and they give us leather, which is used for shoes and coats. Correct:Β I like cows: they give us milk, which tastes good; they give us beef, which also tastes good; and they give us leather, which is used for shoes and coats.
Whatβs going on here?Β Itβs unclear

I have this weird issue, where a simple EOL ";" after a return statement appears in the html for a page. Does anyone have an Idea where this comes from?
Thanks a lot for any suggestion!
Simple Code:
export default function Home() {
return (
<MainContainer>
<p>This is just some text for my example.</p>
</MainContainer>
);
}
And this is the result:
I had sigmoid colon resection surgery on 12/3. I appreciated reading othersβ stories as I was preparing for my surgery, so hereβs mine.
Iβm 42/F and was first diagnosed with diverticulitis in 2016. Iβve had 3 flare-ups in 4 years, and the most recent one started in September and never went away. I was hospitalized over Halloween weekend and thatβs when the surgery was recommended. At first I was nervous, but after another month of misery bubbles rolling in my belly, I was ready to be done.
Surgery prep was hard. I basically did the colonoscopy prep: last real food on Tuesday, clear liquid diet with laxatives on Wednesday, felt empty and chafed when I arrived at the hospital Thursday for my surgery. I drank an Ensure on the way there, as instructed.
Because of COVID, my husband couldnβt come in with me and I went to surgery waiting alone. They had me change into a weird inflatable gown, bag my belongings, wipe myself down with these special wipes, and do an enema - that was a first for me. If I wasnβt squeaky clean before, I was now! I waited for a couple hours as the doctors came in one by one: my surgeon, the urologist who was going to put in lights to mark my ureters, the anesthesiologist. Each one explained what theyβd be doing and answered my questions. I got an IV in the top of my hand (ow) and the last conversation I remember was the anesthetic nurse introducing herself.
Cut to the recovery room, apparently 4 hours later.
My first waking thought was an overwhelming urge to go to the bathroom, from both ends. I expressed this and the nurse was like βNo, sweetie, youβre completely emptyβ - I think this was how my brain interpreted the inflammation and soreness, because the sensation was so new.
The rest of that evening faded in and out. I was transported to my recovery room, and a very kind nurse unpacked my suitcase and set the things I needed most where I could reach them: my phone, a book, lip balm, etc.. I brought a pillow and blanket from home (great decision!) and he set those up for me. They had a tray of clear liquids: broth, Jello, grape juice, tea and I gulped them all down.
I was completely immobile at first: IV in my hand, an oxygen meter on my index finger, inflatable cuffs around my calves to prevent blood clots. Moving, even slightly shifting my position in bed, was extraordinarily painful. That night, I tried to get up to pee and it was awful. I needed the nursing assistant to help me up, and once I got on the toilet I couldnβt

Mods will not be responsible for any transactions that occur.
Personal info and private discussion on the transaction should be done in DMs, or whatever platform you choose to communicate with, not in this discussion thread.

To prevent scamming, it is recommended you ask for proof (pictures with piece of paper that has username on it) and past trading history. In addition, itβs also recommended you ask for proofs of packaging, confirmation of addresses, and proof of sending the package out.
Can anyone help me? Can I use semicolon on this sentence?
" Objective: To work in a position that fosters learning and growth; requires a productive team player; inspires dedication, resourcefulness and passion; and provides a stimulating environment for talent and creativity. "
Or should I just say

I use smartparens-mode
. I'd like to achieve the following: when smartparens
inserts a closing )
for me (so the cursor is between ()
), and I press ;
, I'd like the ;
inserted after the closing )
, not between the parens.
For example: if I write: printf(
, smartparens inserts the closing )
, and the cursor is left between the parens: printf(|)
. Now, if I press ;
, I'd like the ;
inserted after )
: printf(|);
.
But, if it makes sense to have ;
between ()
, I'd like the ;
inserted between ()
, like for(;;)
.
There's a solution here which almost works, but it fails to handle for()
correctly.
Any ideas how to achieve this?
I'm open to other ideas as well, how handle this situation better. Basically, in this case, smartparens is not very useful, because even if it put the )
automatically, I have to skip/re-put it and put the ;
there.
Thanks!

A long paragraph that contains punctuation I am unsure of:
The girl has a family, two, actually: The Zheng Household and The Gu Household, both of which were incredibly wealthy at one point; along the line, like a tooth cavity, the familiesβ corruption was found too late; the decay already progressed and spread out of control. Their treasuries, once filled to the brim, now lacked a single coin.
