We are a Wingdings nation!

I was expecting Comic Sans.

[–] shininghero@pawb.social 7 points 1 week ago

Uh-huh. Sure.
I'll get right on that, as soon as you can explain exactly how the singular genitive declension of the Latin word Dēus has literally any bearing whatsoever on office policies.

It's good to see the papyrus guy bounced back and became Secretary of State

That's it. I'm going to ban cupboards in my house for being to DEI too!

Makes about as much sense to me as banning a "DEI font"

[–] ziggurat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Let's be reasonable about this! What more things are DEI? Let's try to find something that is actually DEI to the core and ban it.

Something that makes it harder for the established upper dog to dominate. Something that gives the little player a better chance!

Yes I know it! Tarrifs! Tarrifs are DEI, now we got to ban tarrifs!!!!

I'm surprised he didn't make everything comic sans

[–] riot@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

It is the traditional font of scammers and grifters. Comic Sans is perfect for Rubio.

I hope they make papyrus the official font

Hope someone throws acid in his face and impairs his vision. That would be golden.

legitimately can't imagine being this much of an obedient and brainless little bitch

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

Just when you think you've heard all the ridiculous shit out there, this guy goes and proves you wrong.

“Not only am I tiny, so is my dick!”

[–] 0ndead@infosec.pub 2 points 1 week ago

Wait till he finds out about comic sans

MAGAts are so petty.
