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 Equal Earth projection is nice. But the UN rejected an alternative proposal from the New Zealand delegation, the Middle-earth projection:
A map projection centered on New Zealand. It's Middle-earth, get it?

For the life of me I will never understand how e-scooters have won so much support among urban transport advocates. They've brought car culture to pedestrian space: obstructive parking, private companies hoarding benefits, constant pointless danger.
