Damn, you're right! That's not the first time I've juxtaposed them. (Can't imagine why. Could be that head injury I had last week. . .)

Maddy, I hope your head injury wasn’t serious. Best wishes for a speedy and complete healing.

Nitpicky is okay. So what is the difference in meaning? In my world, "transposed" means going from the Key of F to the Key of G.

And of course I read your posts. You should be happy that I'm not pitching you shit. Ask Vinny.

Since you asked, juxtaposing is putting one thing next to another; they are seen together at the same time. Transposing is more like switching or flipping.

I actually got it! It was obvious to me so if it was obvious to me I'd assume it was obvious to everyone else.

In my accounting world transposed does mean as you say.

Instead of correctly inputting 8754 one incorrectly inputs 8745, "transposing" the last two digits.

By the way, one can often determine this is the error if the expected answer is different from the "transposed" number by some factor of 9.

However, as a former accordion player I am also familiar with Maddy's world, wherein you take written music in one key and then transpose all the notes to another key. I was not at all good at that.

When Hillary took her infamous fall and showed up in inch-thick prism glasses, I suspected immediately that she was in panic mode. Having worked with many high-flying, risk-taking clients in the course of my legal career, I recognized the pattern. The minute they get scared of going to prison, they make a public display of illness or injury that (1) clouds their memory of all things past, (2) makes it impossible for them to understand questions, (3) raises questions about their capacity for criminal intent, and (4) will predictably be raised as a mitigating factor in sentencing--if it ever comes to that. Cruel and unusual, doncha know.

If my theory holds true, just about everybody in D.C. is panicking, because they're all suddenly becoming sick and senile. But then again, maybe it was just the shot.

But even I was taken by surprise this morning when I saw none other than Klaus Schwab make a public display of complete and utter disorientedness. Watch this:

Old people in the Senate isn't unprecedented. The word "senate" comes from the same root as "senile", the Latin "senex" for old man.

‘ A Black DEI Director Canceled by DEI’
What made me persona non grata? On paper, I was a good fit for the job. I am a black woman with decades of experience teaching in public schools and leading workshops on diversity, equity, inclusion, and antiracism.

My crime at De Anza was running afoul of the tenets of critical social justice, a worldview that understands knowledge as relative and tied to unequal identity-based power dynamics that must be exposed and dismantled. This, I came to recognize, was the unofficial but strictly enforced ideological orthodoxy of De Anza

I'm really surprised that no one on the forum so far is discussing the Trump indictments. ???

Because there's no longer any discussion here. People state their cases at each other until one or both sides get pissed off and return to their respective corners.

What's the point?

The more indictments the better, to provoke Trump's base and take votes from DeSantis. Ron actually does things, eg migrants to Obamas house.
