  Someone needs to tell Downtown Doug Brown about dark and muted background colors to alleviate eye strain. The white is like staring into the Sun.

    I’m using dark reader for Firefox so it wasn’t an issue

    The white is like staring into the Sun.

    Sad to say that, because of the capitalization, the first thing that came to mind was “Toronto Sun or Vancouver Sun?” I think they both still have paper editions, so they’d be at least white-adjacent . . .

      That’s an understandable point of confusion and an excellent case to avoid capitalization of that term in casual writing. I’ll leave it as is for context, but I’ll probably drop the capital moving forward.

      I wonder why it became such a common name for newspapers.

    My feathers are totally unruffled. I just meant to give you advice to solve that problem. I’m sorry if my tone came off differently, but I was just trying to make a suggestion in case you didn’t know about Dark Reader

  You say “tragic data apocalypse.”

  I say, “free high quality neodymium magnets!”
