I think silver is the way to go. Black is too plain, silver complements other accessories I wear like my ring.

What the FUCK was I trying to achieve with this.

You on 10 minutes ago, why you no on now.

Me pointing my hand at my middle monitor, which refuses to turn on.

I think this is a font where you should commit to either ALL CAPS or lowercase.

Aforementioned blocky font used to write some German text which translates to "Aesthetically questionable."

Thin is a spectrum.

One must imagine thin strokes thin.

The text "dietary changes" still written in the font I'm currently working on. It's blocky and most glyphs are drawn with straight strokes. Vertical strokes are way thicker than horizontal strokes, which in this version are a lot thinner. To be more precise, horizontal strokes are a quarter the thickness of vertical strokes (25 units vs. 100 units).

Okay, hear me out.

Mina on my website getting pats during September. Above her head, the text "the 21st 17th night of September?" is displayed, with the 21st being crossed out. My taskbar is showing the current date being the 17th of September, 2026.

I wonder if my webserver has better uptime than GitHub these days.

Now I have both as SVGs.

A screenhot of the Portal 2 and original Portal game logos, opened in image viewer windows side by side. The logos are SVGs I have redrawn based on the respective graphics used in Steam, since most of the results online had some small-ish inaccuracies.

Nick. @pprmint.de · 05/09/2026

Remade the old logo and made a custom icon.

Nick. @pprmint.de · 05/09/2026

I kinda assumed the old Portal logo used Lucida Grande or something, but nope. Pigiarniq.

I kinda forgot my PC doesn't have a disc drive anymore (gotta change that), so for now I gotta make do. My PS3 says thank you @hcnone.bsky.social for the yummy snack.

A certain CD-R in its beautiful pink case resting against some PS3 games on my shelf.
The disc features Miss Whiskey from the Hit Indie Game Endless Monday: Dreams And Deadlines.

Interestingly, even though I was still using pprmint.art back when I sent the registration email in early 2024, they're linking to my current domain.

A cropped screenshot of the email I sent to Microsoft, asking to be added to their font vendor ID list. The screenshot mostly just depicts the desired ID, name, email address and website, but since you're already reading this here alt text, I might as well tell you the full email:

Good day.

I'd like to register a vendor ID to be included in the OS/2 tables of my fonts in the future.

Vendor ID:
PMNT

Foundry name:
pprmint.

E-mail address:
mail@pprmint.art

Website:
https://pprmint.art

Please note that the period at the end of the foundry name is part of it. It should not be omitted if possible.

Kind regards,
Nick.

I completely forgot I did that.

A tightly cropped screenshot of Microsoft's "Registered font vendors" page, which lists a bunch of type foundries along with their respective vendor IDs.

I'm in there too! With the ID PMNT! I totally forgot about that, but apparently I sent my registration email to them in May 2024.

I thought keeping Celesta for the articles page would be neat, but...

Nick. @pprmint.de · 18/08/2026

So I went back to MN Varia for headings.

Thin weight looks pretty good.

Insiders will know that I originally used the name Dialog for a different project, but I think this one will stay in the drafts for now.

Not Helvetica. A fork of BDO Grotesk.

Made a certain contact form more immersive(?).

Also why do screenshots cropped right after taking them always have these tiny white corners?

Screenshot vs. eyes.

A screenshot taken while editing a video in the iOS Photos app. It’s cropped to show the top left corner of the screen in landscape orientation, Part of the video is visible, along with the buttons overlaid on top for closing the editor and muting the video.

The video being edited is of my TV in front of a white wall in my living room, which appears more grey in this frame. The mute button is positioned in the wall area, between the TV and the black space left of the video in the UI.

A photo of my actual phone’s screen, with the same section containing the close and mute buttons in frame. The icon for the mute button is practically invisible now because it shares the same color as the semi-transparent button background, which darkens aforementioned wall.

I should probably post something again, huh.

Happy Valentine's Day.

A Valentine's Day card featuring Mina. The card is divided into two sections at the top and bottom. The top section takes up around 80% of the height of the card.

At the top there's Mina wearing a suit and forming a triangle with her hands in front of her. She was drawn by Layer, who can be found under 108sketches@bsky.social.
The sentence "Your breath is awful." is written above her in a wide geometric font. The sentence "Take a mint." is prominently in the center with a condensed serif font. Mina is positioned between "a" and "mint" and takes up almost a third of the card in this section.
The texts are written in lighter shades of mint green, whereas the background of this section is dark green.

The lower section is black on white and leaves space to write two names. The "From" field to the left has a small sentence in the bottom right corner, which reads "Someone concerned and brave enough to tell."
The "To" field next to it features another sentence in the same position, which reads "Someone stinky."

Moving the thumb sticks along the edge is a lot smoother on the DualSense, probably thanks to this small plastic trim which the DualShocks lack.

Components in Glyphs are sick though. Reusable serifs...
