You don't need to remove the carriage returns or line feeds!  There's a 
little trick that keeps the content from "falling out" of the bullet (* or 
#) syntax:

https://tiddlywiki.com/#Hard%20Linebreaks%20in%20WikiText

Summary: If you enclose the pasted content between *tripled* quotes ("""), 
the line breaks will not be parsed, and they will remain as literal 
linebreaks

For example:
#first item
#"""second item
this is test
that has newlines in it
some are just one CR or LF

and some are doubled, or have more,


like this."""
# third item

enjoy,
-e
