I really wish #org-mode would allow me to specify a manual UTC offset in my timestamps.
Is there a way in #emacs #org-mode to next quote blocks? The following doesn't seem to work.
#+begin_quote
This is a quote.
#+begin_quote
This is a quote within the quote.
#+end_quote
#+end_quoteEmacs is ignoreing the second #+begin_quote and just closing the quote block at the first #+end_quote.
Edit: So the solution I settled on was putting the nested quote in a drawer named :quote:. it's not an ideal solution, but for my purposes in this case it's... fine, I guess.
God help me if I ever need three levels of nesting.
I have one #org-mode gripe that comes up every so often. For all the ways I can filter my agenda view, why is filtering by priority not an option?
I use a giant #org-mode repisitory to keep myself organized. I synchronize this repisitory between multiple devices using #git because occasionally I'll find myself out without an internet connection and it's useful for merging when they fall out of sync.
To that end, I frequently find myself issuing the command git commit -am stuff, which makes me feel kind of dirty, but it's just the easiest thing to do.
Luckily no one but me will ever see this repisitory.

Per the help doc for org-agenda
"If the current buffer is in Org mode and visiting a file, you can also
first press ‘<’ once to indicate that the agenda should be temporarily
(until the next use of ‘SPC o a’) restricted to the current file.
Pressing ‘<’ twice means to restrict to the current subtree or region
(if active).
"
In other words, execute org-agenda then press "<" before the command you want to run against the agenda.

Question for you - how did you highlight "org-agenda-files" like that in your post?
@a world without cars I have a markdown plugin on my Friendica server. I just put it between backticks like this: `org-agenda-files`.
This wouldn't work on Mastodon though.
oh interesting. It rendered properly for me on Mastodon but not when I write it that way.
you could do something like this
```
(defun my/file-agenda ()
(interactive)
(when-let ((org-agenda-files (list (buffer-file-name (current-buffer)))))
(org-agenda)))
```
