"They're joyless. Nothing makes them happy. Nothing even remotely comes near making them happy. And as a result, they treat the world the way that they feel, which is that they are not happy. They don't want other people to be happy. The only thing that actually gives them joy, and i's fleeting, is to hurt other people."

"This new petty cruelty follows other pettinesses in the administration of Chief Petty Officer Donald Trump, the selfsame administration that tried hard, but failed, to ban sign language interpreters from press briefings, that is now routinely humiliating trans people at U.S. Customs desks, and that has downgraded the Coast Guard’s designation of swastikas and nooses from 'hate speech' to something less … unpleasant.

"The move to Calibri had been ordered by Secretary of State Anthony Blinken in 2023 on the recommendation of the State Department’s office of diversity and inclusion. Rubio has since closed down that office."

Gene Weingarten says Marco Rubio has banished Calibri typeface for official State Department communications because it's "woke" in comparison to Times New Roman, which is to be used in its place.

"Sans serif Calibri has been shown to be easier to read for people with certain disabilities, such as dyslexia and substandard visual acuity, and people who need assistive technologies such as screen readers and voice-to-text."

Are there still people who want to visit the #USA as tourists ?

#tourism #Trump #travel #visa #ESTA #socialnetworks #privacy

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1dz0g2ykpeo

US could ask tourists for five-year social media history before entry

The plan would affect people from countries, including the UK, which can fill out a form in lieu of a visa.

Even more reason not to consider going to the #US :

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1dz0g2ykpeo

"As well as the collection of social media information, the new document proposes the gathering of an applicant's telephone numbers and email addresses used over the last five and 10 years respectively, and more information about their family members." ......

If you refuse to give them your social media passwords, what are they going to do, deport you ?
Personally, I think if you "have" to go to the US, leave your personal mobile at home and just take a burner phone (feature phone), and make sure your embassy's number is in the contacts, incase you are picked up by the #ice nazis.
