In a recent blog an author described themselves as being "a through and through writer".
Could you suggest a more frangible font they could use...?

The best I can think of for them is the Open Dyslexic font.
Perfect..!!
And it is based on DejaVu Sans, which would be ideal for Do-overs.
For those interested: opendyslexic.org. It's open source and supports normal, bold, italic, and bold-italic. There are two different type faces available.
I believe 'through and through' is also the term for a type of bullet wound. And a frangible round disintegrates on impact so doesn't create a through and through wound.

And a frangible round disintegrates on impact
All rounds are frangible under the right circumstances.
Modern super-sonic rifle rounds won't penetrate more than around 12 inches of water. This is even true with a full metal jacket round like the .50 BMG. They all disintegrate from the force of the extreme deceleration.

I dont see how that fits with the modern definition of AET ammunition. The normal situation does not have you firing into deep water expecting collateral damage. Firing at a human target backed by dry wall on the other hand...

Define deep water. A swimming pool is enough. I wouldn't be surprised if a Fish tank with more than 12 inches of water front to back was enough.

A standard .50 BMG will go three feet into water. If you wish to verify this, look up the myth buster video from 2005. I personally verified that the following year as I had also heard the one foot myth prior to seeing that.

That is a new round that is designed for underwater firing. It claims up to 60 meters range underwater.

Ditto. Though I recall the numbers as about a meter for high velocity, and about 2.5 meters for low velocity.

There is the original 50BMG Mythbusters and the follow up 30-06 Garand.
Okay. I can sort of see that. Ive fired frangible rounds. I even loaded Glaser rounds as standard back in the day.
But this topic is still far removed from "gun porn".
I think Joy realised her humour was unlikely to be understood by anyone outside of gun porn enthusiasts. But since I'm not one, I may be wrong.

Still wondering what this discussion has to do with gun porn.
or with 'through and through' writers.
Could you suggest a more frangible font they could use...?
I'd suggest Liberation Mono, 230 grain hollow-point. That would leave a mark.
Gun-porn and fonts. That would be something like these:
Shrapnel
Bulletproof
Bullet-in-your-head
Shotling
2nd Amendment
2nd Amendment 2050

Looks like you win the prize...
You get to choose between "Bondage Barbie" and "My little whore pony". Sorry, need to restock and they are all that is left.

In the interests of total disclosure, there is one "Divorced Barbie" left if bondage isn't your thing, she is a little upset and not exactly good company for a male at present, but she does come with half Ken's money, his car, house and pension...

Are you sure it's "Divorced Barbie", and not "Black Widow Barbie"*?
*Marries Ken, kills him, then has all his money, pension, house, car...

Absolutely sure.
Firstly, he is still alive.
Second, Barbie didn't fuck him, her lawyers did.

If their marriage was never consummated, any judge would annul it in a heartbeat (i.e. marriage is voided, but no judgements would be awarded). And seeing as how neither Ken nor Barbie are capable for sexual activities, it's irrefutable. After all, Ken's blue-balls were so bad, his testicles completely retracted and are no longer visible!

Actually that depends upon where in the world you are and in some countries, the USA for example, which State you are in. Some authorities consider a couple married as soon as the ceremony is complete.
Same sex marriages, where legal, do not require consummation, the same applies to 'normal' marriages where one or both partners are physically or mentally unable to achieve intercourse.
I think both Barbie and Ken fall into the latter and therefore their marriage would be legal regardless.
As for blue balls, he would need to obtain medical testimony that he in fact had balls, visible or otherwise. Mattel™ are not forthcoming on the issue.
And seeing as how neither Ken nor Barbie are capable for sexual activities, it's irrefutable.
There is a great deal of sexual activity possible that does not require either a cock or pussy, or both. So sexual activity could well be satisfactory for both, given their limitations. Maybe they both enjoy anal...?

We apparently opened a can of worms here :)
I'll settle for the Divorced Barbie. My granddaughter is a feisty little darling who knows how to handle a difficult Barbie very well.

Incroyable.

She understands it's much easier if you don't do everything up-side-down ;)
Bullet-in-your-head is the best choice (IMHO), as the others, like Shrapnel, is at best, a 'comic' font. The 2nd Amendment fonts, which I've viewed before, are handy for gun porn enthusiasts, but at best serve as 'in-story' illustrations (possible as section break dividers), as they're graphic fonts, and can't be used to display text.
The dyslexic is intriguing, but I for one am NOT targeting my stories at dyslexics (though I'm eager to hear whether it actually makes reading faster for dyslexics, as a personal font choice on their browsers.
(From a font aficionado).
Bondage Barbie was into autoerotic asphyxiation. At the trial, Bondage Barbie was tagged as Black Widow Barbie. Ken died with a smile on his face, and now known as Zombie Ken.
No, no, Zombie Ken works for Voodoo Priestess Barbie. :)
No, no, no...!
He does not 'work' for her...! He swore to serve her willingly if only she would use her magic to finally give him a dick of his own. Mattel™ repeatedly promised to give him one, but always pulled out at the last minute.

That sounds like they were assigning Dominatrix Barbie* the task of giving Ken a dick rather than Reconstructive Surgeon Barbie.
*Comes with strap on accessory and pegging action.
Lapua-Magnum-PostScript would be my choice. .338 is total porn and can be had in a variety of expanding rounds.
On handling a difficult Barbie...would Sid from Toy Story attempts be justified?
And exactly which end of the spectrum does Bondage Barbie fall on?

I would ask her, but she's a bit tied up at present...

Maybe one of the fonts with good Bullet Points!
I thought those would be more apt for Action Man ??
