Post A perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains.

I follow an ARG that's mostly made up of fictional math papers beamed in from another universe. So I printed them out so I could make notes more easily. It's working!

Ok look i just want a cat that will hex my enemies. So far I've got a girlboss who probably has a job as director of marketing or something she hasn't told me about because she doesn't want to pay me rent and a himbo that 8 veterinary techs have proposed marriage to.

Two brown striped cats are sitting on my goddamn desk. On the left is a very large, fluffy himbo, on the right is a normal-sized, normal-coated girlboss, though because they're sitting and she's closer to the camera their relative size difference isn't as apparent as it normally would be.

Then there's my pilot custom heritage 92 with a broad nib. Light and tough and less easy to clean but it handles the gnarliest inks with grace and wetness without being too broad for everyday use. This is my desert Island pen, it can do anything.

Not sure I can pick just one. First of a list tho would be my Pelikan m205 with a fine nib, usually filled with Diamine Blue Lightning. It's slim and light and a tough little pen, and easy to clean with its screw out collarless nib unit and my love of shimmer

I post a lot of my handwriting, now that you mention it.

A poem I didn't write. It's much better.

A hot take that references a quote about Susan sontag. Timely!

"I grew up on a farm and we drank raw milk for generations" No you didn't, you were a little kid and you didn't know what Meemaw used this thing (an old milk boiler) for. 90% of raw milk discourse is just straight up ignorance of a category of women's labor that hasn't existed for a while.

Picture of an antique milk boiler, a thing mothers around the world used to boil milk at home before pasteurized milk became common and cheap.

I always have a pink pen as my daily driver. It started with noodlers ahab, it leaked and was replaced with an fpr Himalaya, which also leaked so I dug deep and got a Pelikan m205 in rose quartz, fine nib, which should be able to go the rest of my life without leaks.

Code Vein is a deeply flawed game that swings for the fences. It's fun and weird! (And for the love of God don't waste money on the dlc)

I'm Not Your Gay Dad@braindouche· Apr 30

It's not a very flexy pen, and the feed will not keep up if you push it, it's much more of a soft writer reminiscent of noodlers pens, but finer and a better-quality pen body, and I love pens that write like this.

I'm Not Your Gay Dad@braindouche· Apr 30

The Asvine P20 fountain pen is impressive for the cost, but kind of useless if you already own the nearly identical but objectively better Nahvalur Schuylkill. Instead, swap the stock nib with a Majohn flex nib for a few dollars and get a much more exciting ,wet flexy piston pen.

I don't use this pen enough, it sparks joy every time I pick it up. The problem is that it handles the most difficult inks with grace and I love difficult inks and so I also need to clean it a lot and I should really just do that more.

Hey cat people, any advice on working with a cat in heat? I am fostering a little sweetie who is getting fixed at the end of the week, but in the meantime this little girl is HornyAF. She's also a cuddler and very attention-seeking. This means I think I'm her boyfriend now?

Don't let the sweet innocent face fool you, this is a relentlessly horny cat

I've never had cats that really like each other before these two.

The fact that Mead has re-released Trapper Keepers has frankly a lot to do with my sudden and inexplicable burst of productivity. It's whimsical AND a business deduction. I might get two.

The answer is "Mi Gente" by J Balvin and Willy William and the internet took less than 15 minutes to find it.

So I googled it. Medicine bottle.
