It is a TimeCop1983 Cruise kind of night.

I love the legibility of this worn journal. The main course is a system font stack with a healthy serving of font size, just a hint of spacing between letters, and a sprinkling of spacing between each word, all plated on a light canvas with black text. Don't forget that generous portion of line spacing!

Still, I want more. My heart wants more. It is 1992's Constant Craving; I want the night; I want shades of text on shadows, a synthwave symphony! But, pupil dilation hammers cacophony on the sweet song of text. The portal opens to that which entices us and the dark. The shimmering lights of strings weave discord in the synapses.

And thus, I return to this B/W theme. Some things are just better that way. Would I want It's a Wonderful Life in color? When The Andy Griffith Show became Oz, the magic was lost.

However...

I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white
Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day

-Paul Simon

This Player One considers the retrowave sunset against the purple nightsky:

One ring to rule them all,
One ring to find them,
One ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them.

-J.R.R. Tolkien
