    Holy shit, HAIL SATAN. The first 80 pages or so are all about typography. This is going to be fun.

    it's probably in there but connare has the best quote about it

    “If you love comic sans, you don’t know much about typography. If you hate it, you really don’t know much about typography, either, and you should get another hobby.”

    i gave a design ethics lecture one time and the topic was so heavy that i had a little "why comic sans is actually great" section at the end just for levity- and the history of the program that it was designed for (and never launched with because the developers hard coded everything to be sized for times new roman which is wild) is super fascinating and it was honestly an accessibility milestone way before digital design considered that AT ALL. There's a reason it was a smash hit when it launched with windows movie maker.

    I will fucking go to the mat for comic sans and it's effect on the democratization of design

    Oh i don't seriously hate on Comic Sans anymore since I heard it's actually easier for dyslexics to read. That might be apocryphal, but whatever, it's nice to hear about things that help people.

    It is still a very silly font.

    Hot damn

    Unless I'm mistaken (always possible) THE DEVIL HAS VISITED MY HOME THIS DAY

    And the devil must know how much I LOVE Taschen because this giant heavy box showed up at my door and inside...

    Nh2dQ9eh.jpg

    HOT DAMN!

    This is sooo coool, y'all. I love art books and I love architecture and design, especially a lot of contemporary/20th century Asian design. This book is amazing and sooo gorgeous and incredibly high quality (Taschen, man).

    I even know where I'm going to shelve it:

    But not yet, obviously.

    Thank you so much, mystery person! There was no note and no receipt so the devil's identity is still a SpooOOOky mystery!

    Oh man Tonkka it is a really amazing book. It's pretty much the most comprehensive photo and first-hand interview documentary you can find of life in Kowloon Walled City before it was torn down. This is the revised/updated version. It had been on my wishlist for like over 15 years and kept going out of print and then my favourite bookstore in Hong Kong just happened to have it on the shelf (RIP Bleak House Books). I think it's out of print again unfortunately but yeah.

    Whoooops turns out the unlabeled Amazon box with the amazing book inside was actually from my dad! I was mad impressed with my Satan's radar focus on my interests for a few hours there but in hindsight that makes sense. It's probably revenge for the year I bought him the extremely heavy Atlas of Brutalist Architecture and made him carry it home in his luggage from Bali.

    I don’t know how it is on other phone but on iPhone it’s:
    - click the little picture icon (2 to the right of the smiley face) above the text box
    - Click the folder beside Choose File
    - Click Photo Library
    - select the picture
    - At the bottom of the screen, click “Show Selected (1)”
    - In the lower right, click Actual Size
    - Choose a lower resolution
    - In the upper right, click Done
    - In the upper right, click Add

    If the picture you’re posting is lower resolution you can skip the Actual Size steps, but most pictures your phone takes will probably exceed the size limit by default, so that’s why you have to choose a lower resolution

    Well I'm home now so here it is. I did not buy it, but know that the threat is on the table.

    I remember wanting it last year and then forgetting to put it on my Amazon wish list, so I did after Ninja got it earlier. Thanks, Santa!

    They also left a theme, but no name. :question: :tell_me_more:

    The D&D cookbook is pretty great! The theming is on point, and my group did a few recipes from it at our first in-person game in two years. The candied bacon recipe and the drinks were all excellent.

    The candied bacon over good vanilla ice cream is fucking amazing. A friend was brave enough to cover theirs in chocolate sauce, they said it made it even better. I wasn't brave enough to try it.

    I, uh, I may have been visited? I genuinely don't know. My garden has a history of gnomes just showing up, and I have a list of usual suspects, but they're all claiming to know nothing of this particular unicorn killing gnomes, so if this was you Santa, then thank you for the Unicorn! It just showed up in the garden today, so I was very confused.
