The Accordion Ninjas are a joke that appeared on the other site ten years ago that made me and maybe two other accordionists (and maybe an organist) laugh

Years later I started making button/badges which have never sold tons — they’re so deeply inside 🪗 — but make me smile every time I see them

@luke helped make #Tango Ninja ones last year which dig the joke even deeper, but again 😹

They use the fab Accordion #Font you can encode messages with!

“Reimagining Fluid Typography” by @mia

> Never do pixel math with `em` and `rem` units. That’s where we went wrong, by assuming that `16px == 1em` is a reliable fact.

It reminds me a lot of what I was pretty vocal about a few years ago, including “People don't change the default 16px font size in their browser (You wish!)” and “Users DO change font size”.

But I don't understand how this code…

Okay so I really like the Commit Mono #font at

commitmono.com

But that website is a usability *nightmare*: it has keyboard navigation using via JS to make it feel like you're using Lynx, which is all well and good...

But if you click too many times, it will block your clicks for a couple of seconds and flash a message "try using the keyboard!" because they really wanna show off.

Then I went to download the font and I'm met with "Safari download not working, try Chrome."

C'mon. Wow.

Commit Mono. Neutral programming typeface.

Truly enjoyed this week's #Tedium @tedium by @ernie

I actually have Bell Centennial still installed from the days when Penny and I owned our newspapers. We used the fonts in our display advertising and "enhanced" classified ads.

I load the old font archive onto every new computer I get. #font #Fonts

There is something beautiful and magical about fonts. A true work of art. A world where art and text collide.

Why AT&T had to redesign its primary phone-book font in the late 1970s to keep with the times, and the clever typographical trick it used.
