Kemotep :de_gouges:🔰<p>Fun fact I learned today:</p><p>Zines, self-published booklets, and even traditional magazines follow a rule of thumb of having their page count in multiples of 4 because if you fold a piece of paper in half you get, a front page, inside page, inside page, and back page. 4 pages are able to be printed on a single sheet of standard printer paper. 8 pages folded in half and stapled is 32 pages, the typical size of a zine and 8 pages folded in half is pretty sturdy when stapled.</p><p><a href="https://mastodo.neoliber.al/tags/zine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodo.neoliber.al/tags/til" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>til</span></a> <a href="https://mastodo.neoliber.al/tags/funfact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>funfact</span></a></p>

CornOnTheGob<p>Death day of the inventor of morse code- who was also a painter!</p><p>Samuel Finley Breese Morse (April 27, 1791 – April 2, 1872) was an American inventor and painter. After establishing his reputation as a portrait painter, Morse, in his middle age, contributed to the invention of a single-wire telegraph system based on European telegraphs. He was a co-developer of Morse code in 1837 and helped to develop the commercial use of telegraphy.</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Morse" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_M</span><span class="invisible">orse</span></a></p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/painting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>painting</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/day" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>day</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/inventor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inventor</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/til" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>til</span></a></p>
