    After like 5 tries and squinting and using my finger to block lines as I went along, I managed to verify for myself that it does in fact have the proper amount of lines.

      It’s not just the correct amount of lines but connections between the lines are actually there, if they should be that is, if you look closely.

        Wow. You really had to zoom in for that one. +2 to the artist for such attention to detail.

      Titivillus has also been described as collecting idle chat that occurs during church service, and mispronounced, mumbled or skipped words of the service, to take to Hell to be counted against the offenders

          When you say “an entire cult of followers”, do you actually mean a handful of the weirdest dudes in the Vatican?

    Is this how calligraphy looks to people who can’t read cursive?

    Well, that’s why you add dots and stuff over the letters so it becomes “easy” to distinguish. Example Kurrent script:

    I get very anxious when someone starts such a long word so far to the right* of the page.

    * obviously only for LTR direction
