    Max width on new theme

    Please set a max-width on the new theme. It is hard to read text lines that are too long. This is not just an opinion, it's a fact.

    Even if it's like 1600px it'd be better

    I'm all for wide-format pages but a single column of text that is 1920px wide is unreadable, especially with the low to average line-height.

    Example:
    I have been following the stories and comments surrounding Mr. Wideass Textblock, and frankly, I'm appalled. What does Wideass hope to achieve by repeatedly applying his lips to the posteriors of nerdy yo-yos? First things first: Wideass swims in a sea of gangsterism, the waters of which roil with anger and resentment. Most of that anger and resentment is directed towards people like me who look at our situation realistically and from a viewpoint that takes in the whole picture. He seems to be involved in a number of illegal or borderline-illegal activities. For Wideass and his serfs, who are legion, tax evasion and financial chicanery are scarcely outside the norm. Even financial fraud and thievery seem to be okay. What's next? Mobilizing support for the special interests that dominate state and private activity? I can say only that Wideass consumes, infests, and destroys. He lives off the death and destruction of others. For that reason alone we need to clear the cobwebs out of people's heads and help them understand that sometimes the best course of action will be obvious, sometimes not.

    Wideass would have us believe that advertising is the most veridical form of human communication. Not surprisingly, his evidence for that absolutely myopic claim is top-heavy with anonymous sources and, to put it mildly, he has a checkered track record for accuracy. I feel it would be more accurate for Wideass to say that whenever he is blamed for conspiring to ransack people's homes, he blames his satraps. Doing so reinforces their passivity and obedience and increases their guilt, shame, terror, and conformity, thereby making them far more willing to help Wideass challenge all I stand for. His disorganized encomiasts like to shout, "Let's twist our entire societal valuation of love and relationships beyond all insanity. That'll be wonderful. Hooray, hooray!" But that won't be wonderful. Rather, it'll overthrow democratic political systems.

    If Wideass wants to foment, precipitate, and finance large-scale wars to emasculate and bankrupt nations and thereby force them into a one-world government, let him wear the opprobrium of that decision. Although the dialectics of politically incorrect praxis will rewrite history to reflect or magnify an imaginary "victimhood" any day now, there is a simple answer to the question of what to do about his declamations. The difficult part is in implementing the answer. The answer is that we must cross-examine his devious, ridiculous apothegms. Given this context, we need to return to the idea that motivated this letter: In a rather infamous speech, Wideass exclaimed that once he has approved of something it can't possibly be discourteous. (I edited out the rest of what he said because, well, it didn't really say anything.) In a nutshell, Mr. Wideass Textblock is completely unaware of the difference between a correlation and a causation.
