As of now, I will move my habitual mastodontal activity to Dragon Style @Cerulean and relegate Mastodon Social to the role of fallback for when it's down.

This is precipitated by having had to edit down a thought by approximately five to ten words enough times.

I can't ask my peers in type design for opinions because the old forum (Typophile) is only kept running as flypaper for spam and other trash unwanted on the active one (TypeDrawers). The snobs who run it, to keep it a place for "professionals", have a Real Name Policy. I haven't tried to join and don't know if I ever will, but I still read it.

Today I saw a thread in which one user helpfully reminded another of the RNP because their given name was not a familiar Anglophone name.

Me: I will print out this coupon so I can go out and use it today.

My body: No time to explain; go back to bed for the rest of the day. Right now.

Me: Uh. Okay.
