As someone with vision problems, I love this change. And size 14 font, instead of 10 or 12? *swoon*

Update: I sent MH that tweet and he said "gross" 🤣 Apparently he's not a Calibri fan

LOL MH said when someone sends something in Calibri he takes it as a sign they were too lazy to switch from the Microsoft default to a better one Apparently he prefers Arial because it's"metrically compatible with Helvetica. I'm learning all kinds of new things today 🤣

I only use it in Excel, as I try to avoid word until one annual report which likely has Times since it's an old template.

I was just reading this email. I’m bummed because my DDs school is the charity I have linked and I’m sure any amount was significant to them.

I know this is performative more than anything (ie dead in the Senate if it were to actually pass the house), but what a fucking terrible idea.

We were just talking about the impact it will have on all the small organizations. I'm guessing the admin costs to distribute all those small donations don't make it worth it, but I'm also suspicious they plan on cutting back. Amazon is clearly losing steam

Amazon is clearly losing steam didn't they just have a huge lay-off round too? I'm bummed as I have my smile attached to the high school band programs. 18,000 laid off today was the number I read. I feel for all the small organizations this is going to hurt.

I think there’s a lot going on at Amazon. Prime is really not efficient anymore either. Most items are a week plus for shipping now. It just seems all around they are changing things.

Related to the Amazon Smile thing, I truly feel like the stock market is the root of so much that is wrong with this country. And the push for not just steady, but greater and greater profits, pushes so many companies to make greedy and short-sighted financial decisions that end up hurting everyone except the people making billions. And then the idea to tie retirement plans to the stock market, so the little guy has a reason to root for good stock performance (i.e., the rich getting richer). What a racket.

This is what you get with the GOP. Chaos and economic hostage taking.
