      Typography geek here.

      If you enjoy watching about type in NYC, I recommend the documentary Helvetica (2007). Even though it has its biases (I mean which documentary doesn’t), I enjoyed it.

    What a wonderfully enchanting exploration of Gorton.

    I’ve had a soft spot for Gordon Modified for a long time, I use Signature Plastics keycaps on almost all my keyboards, with its wonderful rounded characters . There’s just something about it, easy on the eyes, immediately legible at even small scales, it’s a comfort font.
