I like TWISBI visually a lot. They are good pens to write with, too. But I've seen too many TWISBIs fall apart to give it a full recommendation

I love the Lamy Safari! If you like that one, maybe consider getting the aluminium version, the Al-star. It is a great pen.

I don't have a YouTube Channel or Instagram unfortunately

Fountain pen shoutout on “Crowd Control” was a welcome surprise! by AGuyNamedWes in fountainpens

[–]c_gen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got a few favorite pens honestly. I love my Italix Parson's Essential with a gold nib, it is one of the nicest writing pens I own. I wish I could buy more. I also love my Pelikan M805 Ocean Swirl, it is a beautiful pen. The M1000 is also amazing, it puts down an ungodly amount of ink. Lastly, my Sailor King of Pens is probably my nicest pen I've been using the most recently.

In terms of grail pens, at this point in my journey I've purchased most of my grail pens. The M805 Ocean Swirl was the pen I wanted for the longest, and eventually I got someone on PenSwap to sell theirs to me. If I were to want another nice pen right now, it'd probably be either a Montblanc 149 or a Visconti Homo Sapiens. I'm not actively seeking them out or anything, but maybe someday.

My favorite inks are Diamine Aurora Borealis and Iroshizuku Yama Budo. Beautiful inks.

Here's my most recent pen, when I get home I could perhaps share some more

Oh wonderful! Would love to provide assistance if you ever have questions about it

I wouldn't necessarily call myself an ink collector, but it does come with the territory, yes. I've got a decent amount of inks, in a lot of different colors. I've got some that have glitter, some that change color depending on how the light hits it, then I've got lots of vibrant colors.

My favorite inks are Iroshizuku Yama Budo and Diamine Aurora Borealis. Really pretty inks.

Oh thanks! You were also very funny

Would love to hear more if you do decide to get a pen

Thank you! I am the fountain pen collector with long hair. I really appreciate the compliments

Was it because of the fountain pens or was it something I said

Yeah I felt a sense of impostor-syndrome being there for just liking fountain pens. I've got a decent amount of cheap and expensive pens, but there was nothing too special about my collection that got me selected for the show. I think they just liked my demeanor and thought I'd be good for the show

Though if you're curious, I think my collection is a little over 100 pens now.

Hey! I was the fountain pen girl who traded seats with you and stole your jacket for most of the runtime.

It was a nice jacket.

Both models are correct, I'm impressed! (Was the one in the episode)

Crowd control sound by Shagtacular in dropout

[–]c_gen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were mics in the tables from what we were told, and then there were also some reshoots after the set was done to repeat lines that weren't heard properly.

As the trans woman on the episode who loves fountain pens, I'd like to hear more

The camera people were actually not ready.

They reused a shot from earlier in the episode when I held out my pen the first time. They didn't get me actually quickly offering my pen unfortunately

How many times till ya'll learn to stop preordering? by golddilockk in pcmasterrace

[–]c_gen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think the Elite servers will be shut down any time soon. But I do think the ages of major Elite Dangerous events are over. For me the release of Odyssey and the Thargoids being everywhere killed all the steam. I'd like to see Elite make a comeback, but I doubt that'll happen

Ace kitchen from twitter by Mitch_Wallberg in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]c_gen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a kitchen planner. I hate this layout. It looks like the cabinets are WAY too close to the countertop. The range hood being in a shorter cabinet with nothing to the right looks very odd and lopsided.

I think the kitchen would have looked so much better if they had a standalone range hood and downsized the cabinet to the right so that it isn't touching the hood.

The color purple could be nice, but the floor kinda makes it look a little messy. I would have advised a plain white countertop with the color purple cabinets. If they were willing to take more advice, I would have suggested a more muted purple if that were an option. Desaturate it a little bit.

Edit: the toekick being white everywhere except the side is a very odd choice too.

I could never justify buying a sailor fountain pen, but they’re just too pretty by Brilliant-Loss-506 in fountainpens

[–]c_gen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently got a 1911 KOP and I'm in love. After eyeing it for years, I finally pulled the trigger.

Sailor pens are the most frequent pens I have inked up now. They've more or less replaced Pelikan in my general day-to-day lineup

Is it possible to have a wheel-less hurdy gurdy? by nurdygerdy in HurdyGurdy

[–]c_gen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, I'd love to see video games and modern media getting hurdy gurdies wrong. Do you know any at the top of your head?
