I noticed recently the default font in Microsoft Office has changed to Aptos from Calibri. I decided to do a test and they seem to look pretty much the same in terms of design, but Aptos takes up more space. Either the person who developed it's eyes are going, or they want you to be able to do less when you get a "Write 3 pages" assignment.
I even found an article that Microsoft put out about the process of developing five new fonts and picking the best one for the new default. IDK why I am even sharing this. It is something that distracted me when preparing for my exams so now you have to hear about it too.
RIP Calibri, you served us well from the death of Times New Roman in the late 2000s to now.

The Blackpool Combat Club, we learn, we teach, [that] our objective is to. Cause. Pain. To. Our. Opponent. By. Any. Means. Necessary. “Catch as catch can” means get it any way you can get it. I got five seconds. In that five seconds, I could pull a knife on you as far as I’m concerned, in that five seconds, I don’t care WHAT you do, it’s within the rules.

I love seeing people pissed off that Microsoft finally switched from Calibri to Aptos as the default font, because it truly proves that people will be mad about anything.
Like if you tell me you love calibri. You're a liar. If you're telling me you had an OPINION on calibri at all, you're a liar. You're lying if you say you have even THOUGHT about calibri ONCE in the past 6 months.
I'm a graphic designer. My job every day is fonts and I haven't thought about calibri for MONTHS.

can somebody explain to me why if for a group project I literally did the whole assignment, and the ONE THING my two classmates had to do was fill in the info in ONE SECTION (which we'd already written down before btw), I come back and see my beautifully redacted bits all gone, my organised bulletpoints destroyed CALIBRI EVERYWHERE and my blood pressure up in the fucking sky???

Wow I can’t believe they added a character named Puyon to Puyo Puyo
I felt like making Puyo portraits of my OC, Puyon… who is not a Puyo OC, so I imagine she’d have a weird time in the world of Puyo
I rebuilt the overlay from scratch since I couldn’t find any elements for the text boxes.
Bonus for the spirit of the date
