Tangut printed with moveable type — the same defective type sort (broken stroke) is used on two consecutive folios unicode.org/L2/L2017/17314…
There are many examples of broken type pieces recurring multiple times in this text. For example the broken 𘞙 (U+18799) in the right image of the above tweet also occurs on folio 34B.
And a different 𘞙 (U+18799) with two broken strokes occurs on folios 15B, 34A, and 37B.

Dispatches from the witch trials:

The first time I met Kate Scottow was outside the Linda Bellos/ Venice Allen trial

Linda & Venice walked out free women with their names cleared that day.
The next day Kate was arrested

14 months later she was tried under section 127 (2) of Comms Act for "persistently using a public electronic comms network for purpose of causing annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety"

-> up to 6 mths prison, up to £5K fine
Generally this has is used to mean things like making 100s of nuisance calls

The court heard about 15 (!) tweets posted over a 7 month period Sept 18 - Mar 19

This is how it began: In September 2018 Kate had tweeted: “Lets hope they take a serious stance on your racism”.

As John missed Marlena (after her house explosion Christmas season death), we got a peak at what she was actually up to, and it was super confusing. Two nameless children calling her Mommy while she lounged in island-wear? #Days
And there was a Daddy? Huh? #Days
And then we saw "Daddy's" face. I think the eye contact tells the story tbh #Days

@HackneyAbbott Back last year in Autumn @sajidjavid allowed the NHS to prescribe medicinal cannabis, since then there has been 18 NHS prescriptions out of 1.4M "Illegal" users.

Do you understand how big this issue is and will you act upon this within the first 100 days?
@HackneyAbbott @sajidjavid A Freedom of Information request also shows that 104 private prescriptions have been handed out since last November, according to the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA), which processes over 1 billion prescription items every year.

Time has come for the serious confrontation with #ISIS "soldiers of the Caliphate" in Quneitra (Jaish Khaled bin al Waleed) bordering the occupied Golan heights as the Syrian Army, Hezbollah & allies reached the territory occupied by the group as part of south #Syria liberation.
#Damascus soldiers & allies are aware of the necessity of this inevitable battle that is supposed to begin as soon as the preparation of attack from different fronts is completed. This can be achieved when more territories under Nusra and FSA are cleared.

90 cities & villages and 27 border positions are liberated in south #Syria in the provinces of Suweida and #Daraa.

Syrian Army is on the borders, once again, with #Israel and the occupied territory.

Israel T4 attack last night is an insignificant move.
