I've seen some witty remarks from him over the years. One of my favorites was when Republicans wanted to make it illegal to burn THE FLAG (gasp). Schumer was quoted something like: "I wish these people cared as much about what the symbol represents as much as the symbol itself."

How does a company thinking it has a rush of orders it can’t fulfill due to a strike affect how they view their bargaining position in that strike? I’d say it makes them more willing to settle.

It’s not like they’d be thinking “we have 20% more orders than projected. Thank god for this strike.”

Why cancel the order when they capitulate? Because. Fuck ‘em.

They are very much angled and it drives me insane.

I have almost no opinions on specific fonts. Except… I absolutely despise the $ and ¢ symbols in Apple's San Francisco font. Since it's the default font I have to look at it a lot.

The problem with him is that he doesn't uphold his agreements. Combine that with him thinking that the President is King and the US is an extension of himself means that you can no longer trust the US to uphold its agreements. So, no we are no longer allies in any way that you can count on. I'd suggest that Canada pay lip service to the "allies" bit, but not count on it in any way.
