Ðe eþ and þorn movement I'm starting.

I really like eþ (Ðð Ðð) and þorn (Þþ Þþ) as letters, I þink they're elegant. (Plus, I'm really simping for ðe design of lowercase eþ (ð), idk why.)
So, in any languages ðat have ðe "th" digraph, I will replace it wiþ ðe respective letter.

For reference, Þ makes ðe "th" sound in "think",
and Ð makes ðe "th" sound in "that".

Ðat's maybe even more fascinating than oulipo.

As I learned at a talk by computer linguist Esther Seyffarth several years ago, the original literary art movement oulipo (Ouvroir de littérature potentielle) has inspired people to set up the mastodon server oulipo.social where restrictions require that you must not use the letter "e".
