All new titles have have the symbol and I will add them to older ones when useful. I prefer the asterisk with 5 strokes. For LTR Very Bauble the bottom asterisks are rotated inward to create the triangular counter. This is a pretty illusion. For CT Action Grotesque the legibility at 7pt was more important. It is a complex shape and I want to it do its job at scale. By moving the bottom asterisks outward, they create some room for the top asterisk. The whole symbol becomes a bit wider, especially in the heavier weights. Click on the images to 👀 inspect details, some nice outline details in both typefaces, if that is your cup of tea. #fediverse #asterism #fonts #typedesign <br/><br/><a href="https://letterror.com/asterism/">https://letterror.com/asterism/</a> 2026-06-22T08:38:54Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdv82gdua2qqr2h6tztjj00a4s5d4s3ha7348wu48f9mpmu0qhwyszyqeqee05ps6xlfgtnvl3gd00qpffqu3ltl97qwucx9jzv5xx8cnd68pu6zs I hope this mail finds you well.<br/> <img src="https://typo.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/765/412/916/414/419/original/8582ddb2b4fb4a77.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-06-17T12:21:38Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs9p7ztwv64a03e26p9ew87n4tdhd4dlp7tpvdsxd3txg2pu5uewlszyqeqee05ps6xlfgtnvl3gd00qpffqu3ltl97qwucx9jzv5xx8cnd64n996u Family style dinner. #spaghetti #erikrighthand #fontsinuse #fontsfordinner<br/> <img src="https://typo.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/522/839/690/311/552/original/4dc3485b71a94a71.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-05-05T16:10:32Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfh8n9zf37uaey2yhdwl2n0lev2ym6pzg92k4hr9wpsqtxmnjhpxgzyqeqee05ps6xlfgtnvl3gd00qpffqu3ltl97qwucx9jzv5xx8cnd6tmnp2z Build your own tools.

She documents in brutal detail how all resources, water, land, power, all the liberal arts, all intellectual property, entire communities and research capacity, are devoured to make the chat thing work. And while everyone can argue *their* particular case was unavoidable, all AI users are complicit.
