Iβve had so many ideas for comic strips in my adult life. Iβve created the characters, explored their personalities, mapped out the worlds they inhabit, but the strips never materialize. But maybe this time will be different!
New Cherokee fonts developed by Chris Skillern (@tulseytype.bsky.socialβ¬) and Osage fonts developed in collaboration with Dr. Jessica Harjo, which after five years of community-partnered research, marks a complete Indigenous North American Type collection!

The ENT told me last week that he doesnβt recommend Flonase to his male patients because itβs βtoo floral.β I feel like that says a lot about *gestures broadly*
A 1st edition of Dwiggins' Emblems and Electra from Linotype.
I always feel a little bad when I win an eBay auction for an old type specimen book or something, because I have to assume I'm bidding against someone I know.
I just lost all of my beautiful, beautiful browser tabs, and I was almost to the acceptance stage when I realized the window was just minimized on my other monitor.

So now Iβm going down the rabbit hole of musical notation fonts and SMuFL, and Iβm realizing I need a lot more free time before I can get into this for real. Throwing another thing on top of the βFuture Projectsβ pile!

Recently, I got a full 88-key digital piano with pedals on Marketplace, and playing it is the most calming activity you can imagine.
One thing Iβm doing to keep from despairing is playing piano. I took lessons for years as a kid before I took up bass and started playing in bands. But I havenβt had a piano in my house as an adult.
I have to watch it after Penni falls asleep. haha I've already seen a couple of post-episode 10 headlines against my will!
I'm sorry to say you'll need to avoid the entire internet until you're finished!
I'm two episodes behind on the second season of Severance, and the internet does not care!
Oklahoma's state vegetable is watermelon, because apparently it's a member of the cucumber family? I also don't understand anything.
Kerning Cherokee today. Send eye drops.
Ooh, works for me!
Hi, friends! I'm exhausted by social media in general (and by starting new social media accounts, in particular), but I'm happy to see those of you who are here, and maybe I'll post things now and then.
