Only sad thing, I think I ruined my best #skirt. I'm honestly a bit bummed about that, but it lasted a good two years (I think it's been two 🤷‍♀️) and I can still wear it, just maybe not to work.

Maybe this is a sign I should order some fabric in june and #sew a couple new ones.

Here are some birds and flowers from yesterdays .

A very pretty purple flower and some green behind it. Some moss and some grass.
A standing waterbird. Probably a heron 🤷‍♀️

I think I found a combination of pens and inks I can live with for a little while until these get empty again. Maybe then it's time for the sailors to rest. I just can't put them down yet 🫠🖋

Hey nerds, over the years, I've had more than 10 Lamy Safari/Al-star pens. Exactly one of them is working consistently well, all others have had some sort of problem and I've tried thoroughly cleaning them, changing nibs using with cartridges and converters etc.

I've come to the conclusion that maybe Lamy is shit, or at the very least, hit or miss, leaning heavily towards miss.

I'm looking to purchase a new fountain pen but I have no idea what to get. I mainly just want it to work well over time, not look too lawyer fancy and more sleek and minimalist, equivalent of Lamy EF nib. I'm not sure about price range, but I'm very willing to pay more to get something that really fucking just works. Any suggestions?

openess,

@symmetrizer oh, I've had a very different experience with the safari. Maybe I've been lucky then 🤷‍♀️

It's almost impossible to recommend one brand over another but Kaweco has always been reliable for me and feels a bit like lamy stylewise I think. Their parkeo has been a great writer to me and has a triangular grip like the safari (but less of it).

Definitely get it as thin as you can. Their nibs are about the same width as lamys and can also be swapped like lamys, but not as easily.

My favourite notepad is super hard to find.. It seems like most stores don't have it any more and I think #rhodia might have stopped making it. Who can recommend me an A5 dotted spiralbound (to the left) notepad/notebook?

I only have three left 😬

openess,

@jasonnab Yep, that's the one. But it's hard to find where I live. And depending on where I look it seems to almost not be a product here.

@penfount Did you take any action for it not to come back from another instance? I've never run a bot, so I'm interested what you did 🤔🙂

This was sold as a shopstickrest, but it's gonna be a great penrest for my desk. It looks like the cutest little bird.

A close up of my new penrest but without a pen in it. You can see the "folds" marked in the porcelain to mimic an origami style crane.

I see a lot of people posting their ink shelves. I don't stire mine on a shelf but I do have a couole of new inks to swatch when I get home later today 😊

I got two platinum 3776 today. I've never owned one before but they're great writers, both in <M> and <F>. It's great getting to go to a brick and mortar to feel and try before buying.

I also got some ink 😄

Once I discovered how much I liked the basic Pilot Blue and the 70ml bottle, I had to collect this trio of classic workhorse inks. Do you have any collections, big or small, where you "gotta catch 'em all"? #fountainpenink #FountainPen #FountainPens

openess,

@wk I'm looking for an ink beginning with every letter. I've only got a few left now. But the last few are hard to find. #fountainpen #ink.

openess,

@moss @wk @penfount X, Z, Å, Ä and Ö. I've got some ideas for where to find some of them. But they're certainly more rare than most..

openess,

@paradoxmo doesn't count 😅😉 Thanks though 🙂

These aren't selfies. Because I didn't take them. @habmala did! Great pics though. Maybe he'll post the corresponding image for the camera looking at the camera 😉

A silly picture of me running my fingers through my hair. Looking into the camera. It looks like it'll start raining later but it didn't. Grass and hedges behind

I never played #celeste when it came out but tomorrow they're releasing a new physical edition for the switch and I'm pretty excited. Hope I can find it someplace 🙂
