one of my favorite struggle meals is power oatmeal: two bags of instant oatmeal with a gob of peanut butter stirred in. raisins if i’m feeling fancy. equally good for camping and depression

pure fat is about as calorie-dense as you can get (about 100 calories per tablespoon). peanut butter and tahini both come very close to that. cheese is good too

shout-out to @dtemkin.bsky.social for getting me thinking about upside-down fonts with his Language 2, in which every other line goes backwards (5/5)

i took Times (a serif font most people are very familiar with), swapped the top and bottom serifs, flipped "symmetric" letters like s and x, and adjusted a/c/e/g to make them look better upside-down. the effect is striking IMO! (4/5)

i wanted to explore whether it works for text too, i.e. if i could make a font that looked OK upside-down but wrong when right side up. (3/5)

the thatcher effect is a famous optical illusion where picture of a face (originally margaret thatcher's) looks fine when upside down but is revealed to have unsettling upside-down eyes and mouth when turned right-side up. (2/5) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thatche...
