This might be the best “story” video of them all, and it’s weird it hasn’t lived on the way lesser videos have (cough: take on me). youtu.be/kmmPFrkuPq0

Yep. Aside from train Twitter and design Twitter, I don’t even bother. And without Tweetbot this shithole is gross *and* annoying to use.

Type people, it's finally happened, there was an all-fonts category in @Jeopardy. How many would you have gotten right?

You might confuse this typeface, named for a 16th-century Italian calligrapher, with Bookman, also one of the original 35 Postscript fonts.
