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 Brewers are NL Central champs for a fourth consecutive season. Believe this makes them only the 10th time a team has won 4+ consecutive division titles since MLB switched to the divisional format in 1969.

Cubs are 44-28 since June 10. That's a 99-win pace. That level of play has taken them from 8 games behind the Brewers on June 10 to 9 games behind the Brewers on Sept. 2.

Unidentified photo from the National Photo Company. Where ? When? The Metrotone truck makes it 1929-30s. Catalog caption = “Photographing fire for news reels.” Actually we see smoke—no fire. It’s a newsreel crew, but perhaps they’re shooting for the stock library, not an actual news event?
