Well I did just "fix" it by installing them for all users. I did not come any closer to understanding the actual problem

The specific thing with the fonts seems to be that when I installed them, I did not choose to install them for all users, so they went into my user AppData fonts folder rather than the main system one & THOSE fonts are the ones not showing up
So I guess I COULD probably fix it by just reinstalling them for all users but I also want to understand why my user-specific fonts are not showing in apps that previously recognised them, especially considering I am the only user on this machine

TOO MANY POSTS WERE MADE TO A SEMAPHORE. FUCK OFF

Some fonts I installed on Windows 11 were suddenly not showing up in SOME apps even though they were visible in the system fonts list and in other apps they did appear...So i went to check the file to see if there was anything weird about it and spotted this checkbox so I thought hmm okay and checked it
And that gave me an error which I didn't screenshot and can't make happen again but it said, and I quote "Too many posts were made to a semaphore"
WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN

I mean I suppose per terabyte they're not THAT expensive compared to how they used to be. maybe I'm just being greedy wanting so many damn terabytes

Google search thinks you should use glue to stick together a pizza as its AI is trained on Reddit, where 11 years ago a user called β€œfucksmith” posted suggesting it was a good idea.

Go see Guitar Wolf on tour please!

Japanese punk band trying to raise money to make another movie about loving trans women during zombie apocalpyses.

Wild Zero was a 1999 Japanese B-movie zombie flick that stars a punk band fighting off a UFO invasion and the female lead is a trans woman and it's also just a sick movie and you should check it out.

Anyway they're on tour and they're rad:
