I love text rendering

screenshot of a recent @eev.ee post with text selected. the line with ⓐ and ⓑ characters makes the text selection highlight bigger, partially hiding the previous line.

did you know? collars are a the perfect place for a lavalier microphone! #mikeyourkitties #mikeyourpups

zoomed-in photo of a person wearing a collar. there is a lavalier microphone attached to the collar, and the cable nicely goes through the metal leash attachment loop and then over the collar and into the shirt. the person has pink, purple, and blue hair.

come on bsky what is this

"Illegal behavior" written in a blue sky post, but the font used on bsky.app makes capital I and lowercase L indistinguishable, so it looks like "lllegal behavior".

used saichi (docs.scsi.moe/latest/masco...) as an example of a good mascot in my company's questioner wrt choosing a mascot, life is good

A humanoid Fox with white fur, blue eyes/nails/mouth, and green insides of ears. She is wearing a white kimono looking thing as a top and a great l gray high waisted pleated skirt. She also has a black bow in a form of a flower and is wearing geta on her feet. Very cute :3

This is what I'm talking about:

heart from the polyamory pride flag by Red Howell overlayed with a copy of the same heart, but cyan, semi-transparent, and mirrored.

most of the heart is green (because cyan mixed with yellow) but on the edges there is some cyan and yellow, showing that the mirror version differs from the normal one and thus the heart is not symmetric.

a zoom-in on the place between the heart and the stripes. a guideline shows that the tip of the heart is very slightly off of the line between the stripes.

I love finding stuff like this, left by a previous iteration of myself

// Error handling is dubious here (unwraps), but that's probably fine for an internal attribute.
// Just don't write incorrect attributes <3

I like the creative freedom I feel with typst. I can just make a function that makes pride flags, as objects of the language. meow

non-binary, genderfluid, and trans pride flags
