Hey! I promise I am alive and you have a letter on the way. It'll take me a sec because I need to mail it from the post office.

The styling on your status page is so good, I like how the text boxes are stacked off center from each other

職人の珈琲 grew on me, was surprised that it was sweetened before noticing it said 低糖 on the back. but actually the slight sweetness has been really nice! the unsweetened one was very good, you're right, it's impressive how good the coffee is for being in a can. will be looking for the PET bottle without sugar next, at your recommendation

western manufacturers have stepped up their game lately but they still don't make anything like japanese unsweetened black coffee... closest they get is unsweetened cold brew.

not canned, but i'm also fond of this UCC "職人の珈琲" that comes in a rectangular PET bottle with a blue label, it's black coffee with just the slightest hint of sugar, no milk or cream or anything, somehow it works perfectly

we got SIDENOTES yalllll
I'm curious about the typographical reason why sidenotes look less important block-indented too. Wikipedia says indentation can be used to indicate subordinate information in a hierarchy (like in a multi-level list or blocks of code), maybe that's what it makes me think of. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_(typesetting)
interesting! good point, i didn’t clock that. i was thinking it’s a physical manifestation of an aSIDE, like the writer is turning their head to say it out of the side of their mouth, similar to when you tell a secret.
honestly it spurred a half hour of looking into how asides are typeset in plays… like surely someone has already solved this problem
