I love the design (or lack thereof) of this site. Courier font plus the old scans of photocopies make it feel like i'm reading an old xeroxed white paper (in a good way).
I like it as well and find it delightfully easy on the eyes.
Funny thing is that I remember that back in the day I hated those Courier-font-style publications. They always seemed hard to read compared to well type-set documents. And I never understood screenplay writers obsession with Courier 12[1].
I guess the web is so noisy and cluttered today, that even harsh black Courier on a white page is a relief.
[1] Screenplays are usually written in Courier 12. I only know that because I sometimes read screenplays, for movies that interest me. It's fun and doesn't take as much time as it does to watch the movie.

I don't know why I find this as hilarious as I do, but thanks for sharing.
Personally, I haven't read many screenplays, though I did read the original one for Monty Python and the Holy Grail and it bears very little resemblance to the final film. There's a whole section about buying pet ants from Harrods.
Courier 12 is my go to for cutting and pasting terminal output because so much depends on fixed width fonts lining up properly and Outlook doesn't offer an exact match of xterm's 9x15 font.
