Written in sharpie width of course.
No Nobel Peace Prize for you, but you are eligible for a FIFO Faux Peace Prize. And it is trending, even two-bit dictators have one.
Whoever's idea it was to take the bars off capital "I" should be flogged. They are not serifs, they are bars, like a double-ended T. Floggem! Dig them back up and flog their bones if we have to. They generated centuries of confusion.
point well taken

But the NSDAP ultimately banned Fraktur, claiming it was a Jewish invention (Bormann issued an edict to this effect on 3 January 1941).
They did - although I have seen some Neo-Nasty stuff that used Fraktur. People make the association of that font with the Nasties.
Always the same thing.Some version of Stop eating meat, go vegan. Save the world.
The problem isn't that eating meat is killing the planet. Humans just do what humans do, just like tigers and lions do what they do, and cows gonna cow.
The problem is too damn many people trying to have a first world lifestyle while reproducing at a third world rate. And the present path doesn't elevate the third world, but turns the first world into third world.
I believe that humanity should strive to have a first world lifestyle for everyone. Not possible at present population levels. These things usually devolve into people claiming that Malthus was wrong, and will always for wrong. It is only possible for Malthus to always be wrong is the earth has infinite carrying capacity, and infinite resources.
Nature will likely take care of the population/resources issue if humanity does not.
...the Trump Font. All bold, bigly vertical, with sharp edges.
Sarifs are, in fact, for ease of reading, but point well taken. The justifications are wrong and the people making them are petty assholes.
The readability thing. I've used Helvetica just about forever, and find it much more readable than TNR. Different people, different eyes, I suppose.
As I said in another post, have they not considered Fraktur? Seems their style.
Fonts for ease of reading are woke now. What a fucking asshole.
And how - I guess the only upside is this administration hasn't moved to Fraktur font.
Fonts for ease of reading are woke now. What a fucking asshole.
We may do better in 2026, there's fair chance of an el Nino forming and those usually bring on higher temperatures. The fact that this is a la Nina years and we're still up there is not good.
