Yes, I'm aware of what's going on. No, I'm not going to post about it. Everyone else is, and neither you nor I need more of that.

Thanks to all the people following me! It's appreciated!
I do not automatically follow back, though. I scan feeds, and if what you post isn't what I want out of my feed, don't be offended if I don't follow back. If you like what I post, do please hang around. Won't be offended if you don't, though.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.
