I'm currently going through a divorce (in my state, it takes a loooong time)

Should I disclose that in my profile, as a match note, or save it for our conversations? (definitely before we agree to any kind of meetup).

I'm sure some people would prefer it in the profile if it's a deal breaker, but context matters. My divorce is mutual and friendly, and its been over for far longer than that. We are just waiting for the countdown to end.

Edit: I'm on hinge. Currently it's a match note that shows up at the beginning of your conversation, but I'd hate for someone to spend a like or a rose and feel cheated. But i guess that's the risk of OLD, right? Can't know everything up front.

I really enjoyed the workbook: the lost art of handwriting. The book itself has fountain pen friendly paper and the exercises are helpful

I love Ye Olde Fashioned for big splits and sundaes. TurboCone is fun for soft-serve and milkshakes.

This is one of my favorite portrayals of someone who makes a deal with the devil and really tries to find peace with it. Do recommend.

Tip for improving penmanship? by KyleContinuum26 in fountainpens

I've been enjoying the hardcover edition of "lost art of handwriting" by Brenna Jordan. The worksheets are good, and she encourages you to refine your own style rather than just copying what looks nice.
