Best thing I’ve seen on FB in a long while…

Reminder that we live in a world where humpback whales lift other animals out of the water to protect them from predators, where crows hold funerals, where trees in drought send water through their roots to other struggling trees, where dolphins have names for each other, where sea otters hold hands when they sleep to stay connected and where a group of people sitting silently together in a state of love can measurably reduce violence in the city around them.

Look, Calibri was never my favorite font, but Times New Roman? Really? Given the current administration, I would have bet money that they’d use something designed by Eric Gill… #HistFic 📚💙 #booksky

What Hippolyta MacPherson really wanted was to become an engineer - was that too much for a proper young Victorian woman to ask? It’s ‘Moby-Dick’ meets ‘The Odyssey,’ but with air-ships and Habsburgs. “The Hierarchy of Angels” - Go to substack.com/@pandemonium... for more details 📚💙 #HistFic

All that Franz Eduard von Hohen und Mächtig ever really wanted was absolute power, and the lack of accountability that came with it - was that too much to ask?

Finished with my obligatory printing for the year, so now I can get back to a project I started about a year ago. The type circle is 52 picas in diameter (which is about 8-1/2" for you non-printers). #Letterpress #Mandala #pandemonium.press

Hopefully this is the final version. The Octagram (or “Seljuk star”) lockup resulted in an interior pattern that was lacking in elegance, so I went back to the previous version and tweaked it. #Letterpress #Design

Test lockup - so I can measure for the triangular furniture I need to make. Also need to cut more small type metal triangles to fill in the form. Once I get a solid lockup, I still may opt to make some more custom furniture. #Letterpress #Typography #Design

Brute force composition in metal type can be like driving somewhere without a map or directions - but It doesn’t matter because you don’t know where you’re going anyway. (I do go down a lot of dead-end roads before I find out where I’m going)… #Letterpress #Typography #Design
