      What font makes a lower case L look like “L”? Oh wait, I see you want an I with serifs in a sans serif font.

        There could be a slight difference in height or weight to distinguish the two while being sans serif.

    I wanted to see a Weird Al video about medbeds but all they had was a Weird AI video about medbeds…

      Yes, except this story doesn’t have amazing technological advancements that can build massive orbiting space stations or automated life saving medical tech … this story just has an orange beanbag for a leader and AI that can make porn.

    “Some companies have attempted to capitalize on the medbed conspiracy by promoting themselves as medbed-adjacent, though they stop short of selling the sci-fi pods envisioned by medbed believers. For example, Tesla BioHealing sells a “MedBed Generator,” which is a metal canister that patients place under their actual bed, for $11,000.”

    This reminds me of when I travelled on US airlines that had SkyMall catalogs and was laughing at the magnetic cures while all the Boomers around me were taking this very seriously.
