Much like the food pyramid a well rounded rebuttal will include all the elements from this pyramid.

@trinsec I'd run out of ink before I got a single quote out :)

I have been looking for these since forever! Finally!

God damnit. I got half way through writing this long quote and someone distracted me and i screwed up. I hate when this happens!!! It was looking pretty nice to... Oh well gonna start over.

Welcome
@calligraphy

@atheprogrammer
Why would that be a problem?

@souldessin im using a modified pikot 912 FA extra fine nib. It has been reground by hand for copperplate to give it extra flex and a needlepoint. You can buy the modified pen here: https://www.nibs.com/pens/pilot/pilot-custom-912-black-rhodium

@lucifargundam
Dont tell me what my name is!
@trinsec

@lucifargundam
Same, i still have my chicken scratch ready to go
@zpartacoos @calligraphy

@lucifargundam
That exists, its called comic sans
@trinsec

@barefootstache Yup bothe fiber and protein will generally slow the digestion process and allow carbs to enter your blood over a longer period and redce or avoid the insulin spike. Its one approach that can mitigate the bad effects of carbs i mentioned

@trinsec haha, nah I knew the error, i needed a letter with a descender to practice the ratio, and z is a fun one.

@zpartacoos

I did most of it when i was still recovering from my broken spine and was stuck in bed all day.

Since I recovered I practice far less but thankfully I do it enough to keep the skill I gained and still slowly improve.

@calligraphy

@barefootstache From my expierence carbs arent about how easy you burn them, its how long you have to urn them.

Excess carbs trigger insulin which causes your body to store the carbs as long-term fat. So you have a small window to burn it before they arent accessible.

Moreover it triggers hunger sooner compelling you to eat more.

@trinsec Well I never heard of a Trinsec before but you dont hear me complaining :)

@zpartacoos

My handwiting for most of my life up until a few years ago was probably worse than yours. Took me a **lot** of practice to get this far and I'm still nowhere near where the pros are.

@calligraphy

@trinsec since when does the letter s have a descender?

@fikran
Here is an example (not by me) showing the letter h in 3 different ratios for comparison. Since h doesnt have a descending portion its 2 part ratio instead of the usual 3 part ratio

@fikran
The specific ratio i picked is arbitrary. But the idea that you can vary the look of a script by changing the ratio is common yes.

The style here is Copperplate, specifically the Italian Hand variant. You can pick whatever ratio you'd like to write it in but some look better than others of course.
