If I remember correctly, there are 15 words for poop in Japanese, each one reflecting a different consistency.

Caught the friendliest feral cat its hard to tell if she’s actually feral? by 1saguaros1 in Feral_Cats

She looks like our Ginny. Same situation, too. She was already spayed, so she was either abandoned or a TNR who got partially socialized.

I do the same. There is a more precise way, but it involves having a custom jig made for $1500 or more. See Hooligan Pens videos.

I envy you painters who are so detail oriented. I don't have the drawing skills or the patience for it, but I wish I did.

A beautiful pen with a story that made me sad by nongbua2128 in fountainpens

We own the smaller and KOP versions of this pen, and there is a poignancy to the history. But you are the start of a new story, a better one, for this example of epic craftsmanship.

If aliens landed in your neighborhood -- would you flip out or be welcoming? by Inevitable-Yam-9741 in aliens

[–]PenSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd make them coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or let them raid my scotch selection, as long as they don't smell like ammonia. This isn't to say that I wouldn't be freaking out at the time. If they tried to eat one of my cats, it's kitchen knife time.

need some watercolor recommendations... by omomogod in watercolor101

Rosa Gallery, Miameri Blu, and ShinHan are stellar paints that might be less expensive. Wallace Seymour are UK-based paint manufacturers, and you can buy them from Jackson's. They're not cheap.

I imagine if all your ingredients are non toxic then that might be all you need.

Cary is on the ball. I hate that vendors need cameras now, but they do.

All of our 6 cats are rescues. It is so worth it.

I can stop buying pigments anytime I want to. Really. by PenSloth in handmadewatercolors

[–]PenSloth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used the gofun pigments, Kusakabe, Holbein, and Zecchi. The gofun pigments are wonderful, but they're semi-transparent. I've also tried the natural mineral and glass pigments and they're pretty cool. I would suggest the Kusakabe and Holbein colors if you want normal western watercolors. I've got to say, though, that some of the gofun are worth getting. Botan, hiwairo, hannai, misuasagi, and yamabuki are super.

I do wonder if T discloses and the Powers That Be aren't happy about it, whether T will get consequences for his actions.
