    Comic sans is an irregular font that has been shown to help dyslexic folks scan words easier. There are more specialized typefaces for this use case, but none as wide spread for web use. This has been your daily “A dinosaur teaches typography” lesson.

    Replying to @SUEtheTrex
    There is NEVER a good reason to use Papyrus or comic sans. Never. Ever.

    Stop. Blaming. Mental illness. Mental illness doesn't make people racist. And it's more likely to cause its sufferers to be victims of violence than perpetrators of it. We who have mental illness aren't your pawns to explain away difficult realities like bigotry and shootings.

    This is Natalio. He died in Puerto Rico when the machine he used to breath stopped working- lack of power. His daughter told me, "It's a shame that it took an institution like Harvard to shine a light on what we've been saying all along." Natalio's Story:

    I'd ask people to pronounce "el Dorado" to see if they are from Decatur, Illinois

    You get to ask someone to pronounce one word to figure out if they're from where you're from. Where are you from and what's the word?

    Voters overwhelmingly want to expand health care, not repeal it. This November, Medicaid expansion is on the ballot in Utah and Idaho. And repeal is on the ballot in every congressional race across the country.

    Consider an alternate headline after reading this: five ways states are making it easier for people to affordable care for their families. This is not a battle of Obamacare against some other plan. It’s better care vs. no care.

    Tweet from May 1 ⬇ I do think Greitens stayed in office so long in an attempt to abuse exec power to stop the corruption investigation, which implicates the GOP nationally. Now I'm wondering if that dam may burst, and what will come forth...

    Replying to @amyinthelou
    MO is at the heart of it. One of the reasons I think Greitens hasn't resigned despite bipartisan calls and widespread public disapproval is because he implicates other GOP officials, particularly Ayers. He's trying to avoid prosecution and investigation by staying in office.

    the roseanne news is certainly news but it will be a shame if cable goes round-the-clock on this rather than, i dunno, that Hurricane Maria may have killed 70 times more people in Puerto Rico than we initially thought
