| ▲ | sailfast 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Yeah it’s fascist looking as hell, and they’re the ones that have been registering all these rando program domains. So, so dumb - if only because it’s redundant and wasteful. https://ndstudio.gov/ With such inspiring copy as
“What's the biggest brand in the world? If you said Trump, you're not wrong. But what's the foundation of that brand? One that's more globally recognized than practically anything else.
It's the nation…where he was born. It's the United States of America.” how can you go wrong? | | |

| ▲ | jrjeksjd8d 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | The funniest part of this site is talking about how important design is, and then having one bad quality video of a US flag and a bunch of giant text fading into view while scrolling. It's giving "graphic design is my passion" | |
| ▲ | zimpenfish 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I'm no expert but "We've been conditioned to accept that mediocre in government is normal." reads terribly. Surely it should be "...that mediocrity in..." or even "...that mediocre government..." or even "...that being mediocre in...". All of those are better! edit: this text is a mess. "It's time to upgrade, and fix the nation's digital potholes." That comma is nonsense. | | |

I assume they wanted to look smart in the sense "look at us, we used the oxford comma" without actually understanding that the oxford comma needs 3 or more elements listed to be an actual oxford comma. |

This is beyond satire by now, it reminds me of Idi Amin and his official title: His full self-bestowed title ultimately became: "His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular" | | | |
| ▲ | sailfast 2 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | Yes thank you for posting the click-through. Just about every site they make is hot garbage unfortunately. It’s depressing. The Hatch Act is a law, but is effectively dead under this administration as it is never enforced and often violated brazenly. |
