now that's a hell of a transition timeline

I hope to live another 70 years so that Klax may return.

📼 VCR Jazz Mono 📼

I've spent the past few days creating my own font, using my own VCR as an initial basis and working my way up!

Made this primarily for myself, but I also wanted this to be available to everyone!

Evidence that you are a fictional character: / 1. Regular and implausible outlandish coincidences / 2. Obvious plot holes in the worldbuilding / 3. Unusual gaps in your memory, as if periods of low narrative interest were "timeskipped" / 4. Branded or trademarked items in the environment seem lazy, hastily constructed or self-parodic, such as a social network whose posts are called "toots"

So, the thing about learned behaviour, is that it can be hard to unlearn it because you may not encounter the situations where the behaviour would appear very often.

I wanted to write this about ableist language, and tropes and jokes etc, but I realized it applies to pretty much any thing you want to unlearn.

It will be so ingrained in you, that you don't know you're doing it, before you start. Once you see it though you can't unsee it, but it might take time to dismantle all the issues within you.

Jokes from your childhood, maybe rife with racism, sexism and ableism, but you haven't thought about them since then, so not until you're about to say the thing do you realize there's an issue. And heck it may actually come out of your mouth before you do.

It's okay, it takes time, and you may keep encountering these for your entire life. Just be patient with yourself. And apologize or don't hit send, when you need to.

Like, if you have a tool you really like, and Adobe buys it, you are never seeing any improvements made to it ever again. Unless someone outside them finds a way to tweak it that they can buy, embed, and sell to you in a new version.

At some point I feel like we gotta adress that Adobe, the largest seller of art creation software, doesn't actually MAKE any software.

Like, they have some really great tools and they just sit on them because they bought nearly their entire library from other companies, just as a means for more income, they don't know how to work on the code.

I'm from the era of the internet before real name policies, when we called ourselves something silly on some godforsaken website when we where 15 and now have more of an affinity for that than whatever nonsense is printed on our ID card.

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
