Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Dear @duckworth.senate.gov when you became a senator you swore an oath to the constitution. Well impeachment is literally in the constitution. Impeachment is your job. So yes, “get back to work.”

Article II, Section 4:

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Trump years have been instructive because it's been clear that nobody in the GOP actually hates the inevitably bad things about communism. Secret police, personality cults, gulags, kleptocracy, party loyalty tests, martial law, even central planning. Just the concept of people with less having more.
