The Nexx is a really comfortable pen (for those with a tripod grip). Very few fountain pens have a SOFT grip. Even the Pilot Dr. Grip gel pen has sort of a hard grip. It does deserve more love (though I'm boycotting Lamy.) It's cheaper than a Sensa and you can clip it to a neck chain.

As I am trying to sort my gallimaufry of #fountainpens I have identified pens that are really good that I would keep. Now, I am faced with "what pens are really good that I won't keep". For instance, my m800 is undeniably a good pen, and it writes every time I touch it to paper, but I don't use it.

I'm so grateful to those who have already pre-ordered my new album on Bandcamp. There is so much out there you can just listen to for "free" and you chose to support my independent music. Thank you 🖤🖤🖤! I really hope you love it and share it.

Oh, not wrong, says AP 37/50. I wonder what the color was called. It looks like dried seaweed.

A green Delta Unica. I feel like this was an Anderson Pens exclusive resin but I am probably wrong.

#fountainpen

A steel Delta nib. It has DELTA in all caps with a pattern of small circles. The metal is somewhat matte. The photo is taken near a cafe window.

A capped Delta Unica pen on a wooden windowsill. It has a clip with a little rolling ball at the entrance to ease it into pockets. The color of the resin is something like moss.

"No, Gabi, stay on Blue Sky! We love your ill-considered hot takes and your slightly above average darkwave music!"

Worry not, my pretty buttons. I am just going offline until the next EP is here.

If you REALLY believe we are cooked, so to speak, then there isn't really any reason left not to try to talk some sense into your Fox News watching disinformation victim ex-friend.

Better get a book on deprogramming. Might be hard. Better than being cooked.

Maybe it was ineffective, I don't know, but I preferred the days we rolled our eyes at stupid people instead of waking up afraid of them.

I'm going back to eye rolling. We have too much work to do.

Jinhao 82 is still under $10 bucks. But glue the finial on or it'll come off in your purse. Looks the same and also sometimes writes.

Free, fair elections, and the perception that they are free and fair, I think, are probably correlated with a decrease in political violence. Two things:
1. The elections must be fair.
2. They must be transparent - everyone must be confident that their vote counts.
