yo The Wandering Inn introduced me to the Henny Penny font and I’ve never been happier in my life please tell me more people are gonna start using it cuz it is the most fun version of a dyslexic font I’ve ever seen

Writing prompt;

You have been isekai'd into another world!

But as soon as the summoners take one look at you they say, "No, this clearly isn't the chosen one." And just toss you out into the street.

[oysters-aint-for-me]

oh? and why ever would you want to use a joke about a cavalier marrying their necromancer, mx. gideon?? hmmmm???

[lilybug-02]

Unironically using the sans font because it genuinely helps with my dyslexia <3

[starrierknight]

I am begging.... please.... please use capital letters, speech marks, and full stops.... please do not write your 1k+ fic in the small font.... please, for the love of God, do not write your entire fucking fic 𝖎𝖓 𝖆 𝖋𝖔𝖓𝖙 𝖑𝖎𝖐𝖊 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖘

something something Neil's smile *actually* being frightening/butcher-esque but that him getting rid of the smile doesn't hide the fact that he's fucking insane. butcher neil is so real in tsc but damn i think this bit hit really hard because neil spends so much time in aftg freaking out over his smile and i guess some part of me was like "it can't be *that* bad" but i guess he really is just Like That™

ok i am very curious tho bc i think finding the fonts last night took me as long as drawing the thing- does tanguish use two fonts? like it looks like the uppercase is vivaldi italic and the lowercase is monotype corsiva italic and i just simply couldn't find One Font that had *both* upper and lower matching those ><

You are correct it's two fonts! Helsknight's is also two fonts. The capitals are Old English Font [I... Think.] and I can't remember what the lower case is, besides the fact that it's a sans serif font. I'm not at my art computer right now so I can't check XD

A lot of my friends have dyslexia, so I try my best not to use exclusively hard to read fonts if I can help it when I do text. I will make capitals, titles, and important words the embellished font, and the rest of the letters are generally an easier to read sans serif that I think fits the embellished font well enough. That way we get the pretty impact of the big fonts while keeping the readability.

It's for the same reason all my comic pages [with regular text without the fun RnS font choices] have Calibri font. It's dyslexia friendly. Not quite as dyslexia friendly as Comic Sans, and some of the new dyslexia specific font types, but better than most serif fonts, and the more cramped sans serif ones.

[stump-not-found]

I really enjoy your comics and I have to say, the use of century Gothic as a font is a great choice 10/10 great font

century gothic fandom rise up

[lyeondoe]

I'm kinda curious if this font is actually helpful to people with dyslexia. If so that's so cool, this isn't hate it's just me being curious

[mushki-art]

dyslexia friendly comic fonts!

I made some dyslexia-friendly fonts for comics specifically~ They're free to use for whatever you want, but if anyone wants to give me a tip, that would be much appreciated <3 (i'm disabled and cant work, but can't stomach the thought keeping them behind a paywall, just cause they're so desperately needed)

(im not a pro at font making, so there might be kerning issues, but they work well for me~)

You can get them on my ko-fi!

My favorite head canon for a sans & papyrus fusion is that they're just Some Guy.

Papyrus's Main Character Energy combined with sans' hidden lore crouching badass make Just a Guy.

He's just a normal dude who's pretty chill. You'd definitely get a beer with him AND let him watch your dog, but he's not like. Super special or anything. The Clark Kent of fusions if you will.

SGA Background Character Register

Pegasus Natives | Genii

-

Decided to start a Pegasus Native register

I'm debating on adding a sheet that describes these characters' attributes so they can be easily added to any fic

-

Notes:

- Only Genii with names - Canonically female characters are marked because there are less of them - Alive: Meaning we never saw them die or been informed of their death

Feel free to use this as you see fit just please keep my user name on the image

people are talking about how much longer lestat's side of the story is than louis' but i haven't seen anyone mention the funniest part which is that (at least in my additions) tvl's font size AND spacing are smaller than iwtv's

[ashton-slashton]

I am about to be so FUCKING insufferable I'm so sorry

[ulysses-teeth]

Listening to the Bifrost Incident while pulling an all nighter to finish my essay on why Cinders is the best version of Cinderella because I procrastinated on writing it because I kept getting distracted but recordings of their shows and by reading the fiction and trying to convince myself I am not totally obsessed with the Mechanisms in the most stupidly academic way possible

[monsterlets]

in honor of me having to edit powerpoints made by other teachers, here's a list of fuckin questions to ask yourself when you import a slides theme off the internet

is the font fucking legible

is everything 18 point font or bigger

is there enough fucking contrast between the background color and the text color

do the default pictures have fucking anything to do with your presentation

if you answered no to any of these questions, fix it before anyone has to look at it
