Thought I'd share this video explaining type.lol to try to be more helpful and more clear (who I am, why I'm working on type.lol, what it is, what it's for, how to use it, etc).

If it's useful, amazing! If you wish I answered more about XYZ let me know and I'll make a follow up!

I think I’m going to wax seal it, but apart from that, it’s finally done! A white cube, rococo frou-frou bits and a carved snail (this snail shell actually IS a handle), it’s definitely been an educational project. I’ve learned Blender-as-a-CAD tool, CNC stuff, hand carving and a whole bunch of other stuff. Now to make something a bit different.
@elliotjaystocks Hi! Just wanted to let you know about a new font release of mine. Sheller Stencil from Midwest Type. https://midwesttype.com/family/sheller-stencil
New font today! By me. If you like it please share it around. https://midwesttype.com/family/sheller-stencil
Introducing Urgell, a display typeface inspired by a vintage Deco-style street sign located at Comte d’Urgell 16 in Barcelona, Catalonia. The original sign features distinctive geometric forms and playful irregularities that have long attracted the attention of type enthusiasts and lettering artists. https://www.brutaltypes.com/fonts/urgell

Guess I won’t be flying down to visit my friend in Puerto Rico this month.
My @NaN Tresor is an ode to the earliest grotesque typefaces, in which glyph shapes varied wildly depending on size and weight.
It’s been the first typeface to use variable font technology to revive this.
NaN’s animation gives you a good impression! 😵‍💫 https://www.nan.xyz/fonts/nan-tresor/

And a happy FUCK OFF to AI from Emma Thompson. 😌

[Blog] In which a typography nerd prevents a Monotype "business development" person from, essentially, scamming his employer out of unpaid font licencing fees that weren't actually owed.
