when unstyled, most browsers default to displaying HTML in a stock system serif font – I’ve updated the stylesheet and switched it back to using sans-serif – but this time I have reasons! (probably not good reasons, mind you) – I generally tend to prefer sans-serif fonts for most stuff, but with the rise of the slop companies adopting serif fonts to appear more human and the fascist hatred of sans-serifs as “woke” or “too progressive”, I’m feeling a little more reactionary – even if they never read these notes, anything that spits in a fascist’s face has to be a good thing, right?
