Is Text Tool Broken in Adobe CC 2019 v20?

Black Text that I just typed is un-rendered:

This basically makes one of the core tools of the program unusable. I'm hoping it's something dumb I'm missing, but it seems odd that they would intentionally program this in an update

Thanks for letting me know. Now I have a better idea of what answers help. There could be deeper factors such as corrupted fonts or plugins, so I'm glad this did the trick.
