Unfurling and flattening ballot papers three feet long, and scanning for an X in one of 32 boxes, all next to candidates whose names and parties all to a one read like joke and novelty names.

The joke who triggered it is expected to win, but there's either hope for the bin or hope in the bin.

Kiki the Cyber Squirrel is a much cuter image editor mascot than Wilber. Kiki also has more fan art, which says even more about Krita, the image editor Kiki represents.

@mavica_again Nope, not even when better designed, more ethical, and more free painting and image editors exist in the same software ecosystem. :V

@earthshine Their dogs ate their homework, and we're collectively gullible enough to believe them.

@Chip_Unicorn For future cleaning that makes removing keycaps unnecessary, and if the keyboard has the right kind of switches on it, consider installing a set of typewriter-style keycaps instead of the original. Their short sides make the base and switch area so easy to access with tweezers and canned air without disassembly.

@Chip_Unicorn Remove the keycaps, and you'll have enough access to hit all the places where gunk likes to gather with swabs, rags, and canned air. Use a cheap but specialized keycap puller tool to lift straight up on the cap.

If it has scissor or butterfly switches, like laptop/notebook keyboards, then removing the keycaps is a different, delicate, and likely breakage-prone procedure that may make cleaning it infeasible.
