U.S. politics are weird. How doesn’t election denial automatically disqualify the person from being on the ballot? 🧐

Twitter français, j’ai un problème très spécifique et je me demande si quelqu’un peut me donner des conseils. TL;DR Ma mère est décédée il-y-a exactement un an et mon frère, ma sœur et moi ont hérité un petit appartement à Vence, Côte d’Azur. 1/…

Parfois ce message était précédé par: “The number you have dialed is not in use (…)” J’ai fini par envoyer un courriel à la Chambre départementale des notaires - Alpes-Maritimes expliquant la situation et demandant si le notaire existait encore. 4/…

Le lendemain (!) je reçois un courriel du notaire avec les documents que nous devons signer. Inclus dans ce courriel est aussi une facture de €350 à mon adresse avec la mention: “Réponse à la chambre suite à réclamation infondée”. (!) Savez-vous quels sont mes recours? fin/…

What are your favorite websites that use variable fonts to adapt the typography when the viewport width changes? Preferably the titling font switching to a different width but anything goes; to show to my students.

This year, I have introduced the “bitchslap factor” in my grading at @ArteveldehsGent. As in: “how long will it take before the designer who has to work with your file comes to your workstation and bitchslaps you over the head.” The students understand now. 🙃

Whenever there’s a new “I don’t name my layers lol, who does that?!” tweet going viral, a designer who has to work with those files is quietly crying in the corner.

Here is a clip of Lizzo playing a 200-year-old flute in the library of congress. A beautiful performance from a well-trained musician. The outrage from certain people is just a symptom of their ideology. (Every time you share this it makes a right-wing talking head cry.)

No immigrant has taken your job. You were laid off by a capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear you blame the immigrant and not him.

Raskal Oner Write is absolutely bonkers in the best possible way. @swisstypefaces again outdid themselves. Tomorrow I’ll read @typeoff’s writeup and purchase a license. Instant buy. #font #typeface

tenslotte, laatste tip: revolutie. werp het kapitalisme omver en bouw een samenleving op basis van duurzaamheid, solidariteit en gelijkheid. een wereld waarin het onvoorstelbaar is dat er miljardairs zijn terwijl er ook mensen honger en kou lijden. godverdomme.

Having the tagline “All over the place” for your new type family is an… interesting choice. Somebody needs better copywriters.
