The good folks over at Vole.wtf bring us Scunthorpe Sans, a self-censoring typeface. It’s able to detect the words f***, s***, p***, t***, w***, c*** and dozens more, but with a special exemption for “Scunthorpe”; that town has suffered enough. How this s*** works: Modern fonts can combine letters into […]

Without any doubt Eavan Boland had been my favorite living Irish poet. Her poetry embodied the essence of Irishness, Ireland’s tragic and melancholic history, with it’s lovelorn and forelorn. I have posted two of her poems on puppies and flowers before: Amber and The Lost Land. This piece is a […]

The shortage of masks have forced some Chinese get creative in how they protect themselves. Water bottles are big it would appear. What I find striking in these pictures is the spirit, that they can still see the humour in what they are wearing. All of these photos I found […]

Pepsi are making a big splash in the house/hometown of Coca-Cola. The lines are very good too–with some bite. “Pepsi in Atlanta. How refreshing.”, “Look who’s in town for […]
