This. I came to just say one word: performative.
All I know is I’d keep doing my official docs in Calibri, or arial, or comic sans. “Oh, I forgot. next time!”
All this talk of fonts (typefaces) makes me think of how much I miss @Colibri.
Utterly off topic, on my Android, I typed in “Times New Roman” into Google… and got all the results in Times New Roman, instead of the expected Roboto (default for Android)
I think Google is making a subtle dig at the Orangutan in Chief.
Whatever you do, don’t type Colibri into Google. A squad of ICE goons will show up and throw your family into a black SUV.
It does that for lots of fonts. Try it with comic sans, for instance.
City councilwoman in Lincoln, CA claims her daughter was turned gay by “trauma” she experienced as a child, then claims AI made her say it.
I watched her speak. There was an awful lot of “I love her, but…” statements.
So she’s saying, she abused her daughter?
Past tense, present tense. What’s the difference with these animals?
" “Club America,” a chapter of Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA that targets minors."
Are we really not doing “phrasing” any more?
Pete Hegseth says the chaplain corps needs to stop administering to the spiritual and psychological needs of servicemembers and instead spend their time telling them they’re going to Hell for being woke.
I wonder how long the editors at Stars and Stripes are going to be getting away with continuing to call Hegseth Secretary of Defense instead of Secretary of War.
According to Wikipedia, Stars and Stripes has independent ombudsman appointed by Congress, so they’re not under Hegseth’s editorial control.
I wonder how long it will be before the Chaplain Corps tells Hegseth that the spiritual and psychological needs that are discussed with servicemembers are protected by confidentiality.
And the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, the reason the Chaplain Corps exists.
Trump judicial nominee, under questioning from Senator John “Leghorn” Kennedy of all people, acknowledges having said that disabled people shouldn’t be allowed to get married ‘cause they can’t fuck hard enough.
Hegseth quote:
Our chaplains are chaplains, not emotional support officers
Uh… I don’t think he understands how “ministering” to the faithful works.
I also fully expect he’ll try to get rid of anything not his variety of Christian. Maybe keep a token rabbi or Catholic priest around.
I’m sooooo tired of this shit-show and it hasn’t even been a year yet.
There’s a part of me that wants to go on a ten thousand word rant about this sort of bullshit, but there’s another part of me that is saying no, don’t waste your energy on this, you need it for living your life.
I have found that sometimes it is better to, as the Beatles said, let it be.
