Welcome back to our curation of the best type bytes on Stab in recent discussion. It’s been a minute since our last compilation, but that’s only because of the sheer mass of overwhelming beauty and brilliance harvested in the comments section of this dot com. Remarkable how similar genius and insanity are, right? Anyhow, here is this month’s ripest fruit.
