Rubio orders return to Times New Roman font over 'wasteful' Calibri
bbc.com> Lucas de Groot, the Dutch designer who created the Calibri typeface, told BBC Newshour the change was both "sad and hilarious".
Yup, that pretty much sums it up.
Sad and hilarious, like Rubio
> "To restore decorum and professionalism to the Department’s written work products and abolish yet another wasteful DEIA program, the Department is returning to Times New Roman as its standard typeface."
So to reiterate, the department decided to move on from the 1992 default Word font to the 2007 Word default (1 year after it was no longer the default).
Nothing is safe from politics when even a font choice has become "woke".
Calibri always has a cheap look to it when I see it, just because I'll assume someone didn't change their default font. I think I felt the same about TNR when it was the default too, but Calibri has quite a bit more character that seems to build up "font fatigue" more easily.
Not woke though. There are many better modern choices that are not TNR.
