When should I use this tool?
Anywhere you want to use italics but typically canβt; for instance, you may want to use some Chandler-esque sarcasm on Instagram. Could that be anymore useful?
You might want to emphasize a word, or correctly format a citation in a tweet:

Let me know if you find any more uses for this tool, as Iβd like to create a longer article.
