But you're getting the giant ballroom, a war with Venezuela, and they're finally getting rid of Callibri font.
You losing your entire way of life was a small price to pay for such benefits.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
...what's this about Calibri?

Apparently calibri is too woke, so they're reverting to using times new roman for government documents
I first learned how to use computers when Times New Roman was the default font in Word, but I'm not a stunted fuckup with daddy issues so I guess Calibri never bothered me.
But Mark my words, the Conservative of tomorrow will be working fervorously to return to the glory days of when Calibri was their default font, because Conservatives always yearn to return to the days of their youth, when the world wasn't so big and scawey.
Apparently Times New Romans had only been the State department's font for about twenty years
Yeah that's about when I started using Word in Business Computers class.
Marco Rubio bans Calibri font at State Department for being too DEI
I am also picky about what fonts I use, but only those that I use.
My requirements are
= l and 0 != O and l != I (read "!=" as "isn't similar to")I usually use Liberation Mono, Adwaita Mono and Source Code Pro. I also really like Terminess Nerd Mono, but it only looks good if line width equals to 1 pixel. It's really only meant for fixed resolution.
Well, Terminess isn't doing so well with 1 and l.
Mouse pointer... eh, anyway.
I think attempting to read your second point gave me an annuerysm
You read non-code text in mono space? Who hurt you?
I just like predictably sized text. It makes more sense to me to have document width in characters rather than in inches.
I only use 3270. It is the one true font. At least for the terminal.

Did someone not realize that the whole plan was to make sure his farm would wind up owned by a private equity firm? Sad face.
What's wrong Mr. Conservative? Government handout not enough for you? Awwww, too bad. Maybe you shouldn't have spent all your money on avocado toast.
It's only socialism if other people get the help (I'm aware that it's not socialism, but that's what they like to call it).
maybe grow some avacado and wheat.
I seem to remember Candidate Trump telling you, your family, neighbors, and conservative friends exactly who he was. Twice! And you chose hate over Progress, hoping he'd harm others but not you...
Three times, actually...
Thrice, even.
FIFY, Donald.
Most farmers i know are pro trump, and Canadian. None of the deserve any sympathy. I hope all thier fields are infested with locusts.
On the one hand I agree, on the other hand, I like eating food.
They aren’t growing anything you can eat.
It's either soybeans for Chinese animal feed, or on off years, corn for American animal feed.
Farmers in the US grow a lot of alfalfa for Saudi Arabia as well.
If only it were falaffels
Soy sauce on some fried corn might be alright
There is food, rotting.
The problem is these capitalists.
Farmers often could be considered petit bourgeoisit, if that helps explain how they vote. They own a shitload more land than any of us could afford.
Big, if true.
Yuge!
Well...this is what you voted for.
These people have coined so many phrases aimed at hurting liberals. I can't feel bad for these trump voters not one ounce of sympathy for them. They voted this problem they can suffer the consequences.
I really hope they run through all the consequences. I hope every day is more painful and difficult than the last until they face the endgame of their choices.
It's not nice to wish such harm on people...but I'll allow it -and much more- for tRUMP supporters.
He could have just said, "I voted for a slap in the face".
TRUMP SAID" YOU voted for what i campaigned on, deal with it"
Well, at least you won’t own the land you will be buried penniless in.
Get fucked trumper.
My heart goes out to the poor leopards who are just getting so obese...
GET. FUCKED.
Hahaha. Well, you voted for pain and suffering, you're getting pain and suffering.
Don't worry you can sell your land for pennies to make way for the ai data centers
Hell, sell it to JD Vance, surely he won't eat your face.

*Mayor
Don't cry, little MAGA. I'm sure some huge agribusiness will buy your farm for pennies on the dollar.
That's Capitalism, right? You wanted the country to be Run Like A Business, yeah? Well this is Survival Of The Fittest, Bucko! You better thank Jesus that you live in the Greatest Place In The World.
They deserve it, but it's still not in our best interest for them to lose assets if they just empower the fascist.
have fun working on tyson, purdue, farms magat.
Boo fuckin hoo. Maybe think before you vote next time, if you're able.
They did think, they just thought they were exempt from what the voted for. Remember, farmers are millionaires. Tax breaks for the rich are what they want. Bailouts are what they expect, Trump did it his first term for them and they were expecting more of the same.
Told you so~
Happy cake day! You are now two years old. 😋
I just dont understand how people can be so stupid. Trump is a selfish, racist piece of shit, and does selfish, racist things at every opportunity. We've seen it play out now for over a decade.
How can they still think this convicted felon is on their side? It boggles my mind.
Cause propaganda channels tells them repeatedly, every day, over and over.
and they have it on 24/7
because the supporters believe the same thing he spews: racist, selfish, bigoted, sexist.
This is animal abuse.
It's inhumane to forcibly gorge so many leopards.
... sob ... they can only eat so much!!! ... sob ...
A slap in the face only because they want more of that socialist handout...
Came here to post this exact response!
yeah you’re dumb
Zero sympathy you dumb hypocritical racist fucks. Now you like socialism, eh. Piss off!
Oh no how unfortunate.
Oh no!
Now they must use this rage. Channel it, into not fucking voting for Republicans.
Spoiler, they won't. Most treat politics as a sports team. Elections are all about their team winning. And if they guy they elected is terrible, they convince themselves that the other guy was worse,
The best you can hope for is them giving up on voting for a cycle or two. Then they're right back in it, voting for team colors regardless of real world consequences.
The oddballs who actually care are the ones you hear from most, the assholes who like the cruelty.
They'll have completely forgotten this by the next elections, and will be surprised all over again that nothing ever goes their way.
Ain't that juat the way...
Awwww, poor sods. Caught by the good old "poor choices have bad consequences"?
Anyway...
Remember these subsidies aren’t given to help farmers it’s so these farmers can pay the bills they get from big ag corpos like John Deere and Monsanto. It’s corporate welfare while these farmers will go bankrupt anyway.
Edit: also forgot to mention that these big ag corporations also have activity in Brazil and Argentina. These fuckers are getting paid twice by Trump.
Wait until many file bankruptcy, then save face with a welfare bailout.
nah nah nah... "There'll be a little disturbance" (Trump 03-2025) So everything is going as planned, you filthy Democrat!
