Default font size interferes with text effects

EDIT
: Thanks to Bodertz for clearing up some mistakes I made in my original feedback.MSPA's intended "look" for below-panel text (per this archived Tumblr post: https://wheals.github.io/tumblr/tumblr.html#font-size) is "Aliased, 14 point, bolded Courier New". Certain text effects - like the corrupted pesterlogs in act six - were designed with this look in mind. The current Homestuck.com sets its default below-panel font size to your browser's default font size, making those effects a little less seamless if your browser default isn't 14px.
Andrew says it "isn’t a big deal" if text doesn't appear "the right way". However, it was a default incorporated into the original MSPA site, and I think it's worth incorporating into the current one.

I think homestuck.com uses the browser's default font size, which seems to be 16px for both Firefox and Chrome. If you change the size in your browser's settings to 14px, it will be 14px instead.
In Chrome, that's chrome://settings/fonts
In Firefox, that's about:preferences#accessibility
Disabling anti-aliasing is not so simple, unfortunately.
As for the upscaling issue you mention, I think that's a Windows thing. If you set the scaling to 100% in Windows (I assume you can do that) instead of 125%, I expect that problem won't occur. But Firefox will just follow what Windows (or whatever) tells it to do.

Bodertz Thanks for the feedback on my feedback! I'll try to update my original post accordingly.
I tried scaling Windows down from 125 to 100% - I can see why they recommend the former lol. I also discovered you can make Firefox run at 100% scale using the layout.css.dev.PixelsPerPx property in about:config (if you want to preserve the 'default' look through the rest of Windows).
