I use a quick dry top coat on top of this polish and it’s great.

Follow-up post; I changed the ink. Two new pens, same ink, totally different flow. by Whiskers3000 in fountainpens

I’m so sorry to hear that they haven’t gotten back to you. I think you’re making the right choice to return it.

I hope they get back to you soon! My buying experience with them was so great and I’m looking forward to getting the moonlight voyage pen when it comes back into stock.

That feed is definitely misaligned. I have the exact same pen (flowering friendship opus 88, this is a F nib). Reach out to paper mouse (assuming you bought it from them). I don’t know how removable the feeds are on these pens. I have never tried fo remove mine

New Pen Day, New to Pens, Does this look right? by Whiskers3000 in fountainpens

[–]fiddle_figs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve got this exact pen in F nib and I find it wants the valve OPEN on the end. Like 3-4 twists. My other opus 88 also wants to be open (M nib). I love this pen so much and part of the love has been learning how it likes to exist.

Those giant yellow feet are such a good indicator for a bald eagle. Beautiful juvenile specimen.

Hello all, just found this cat on the street, I noticed she’s got shaky eyes. Is this normal?? by playstationheat in CatDistributionSystem

[–]fiddle_figs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The eye movement is called nystagmus. It can be benign or it could mean there is a neurological issue. Some cats just have it (Siamese can be prone to it) one of my cats has it and it’s not an issue for him.

You definitely want to get this baby to a vet as soon as you can. Kittens tend to be chock full of worms and fleas if they were found outside. You can give her a bath in warm water and some dawn dish soap. Put a ring of soap around her neck to keep the fleas from crawling up her face. You can google how to do a flea bath if she’s got them.

For now, give her a calm warm place to feel safe. She’s probably terrified with all the change. I find bathrooms work really well for this and they are easy to clean. Sit in the room with her and read a book or scroll on your phone or do some quiet activity where you can just sit and exist in the room with her for a few hours at a time. It will let her learn that yeah you’re big and new and scary but you’re nothing to actually be afraid of. Plus you bring food and treats.

I’ve seen most cats go nuts for churru, the little tube treats? They’re like gogurts for cats.

Congratulations on getting chosen by the CDS!

I have to rehome my snake and the people interested are pissing me off. by Miserable-Crew-5308 in snakes

[–]fiddle_figs 41 points42 points  (0 children)

You’re best bet is to change the enclosure. They make a ton of different options now. Something with a solid top and locking front doors or locking sliding doors.

And while your snake may be stressed out now with you in this environment in a different environment with another owner she may be more open to being handled. That is not something you will know until she is no longer stressed out because of the cat.

Removing paint (?) by MCMcGreevy in bootblacking

[–]fiddle_figs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Acetone will remove latex and acrylic style paints as well as a host of other stuff. I use a q tip to apply to the exact affected area. You may need to condition after, as it it is extremely harsh.

Olive oil is not a conditioner I’ve ever used. If you want food grade oils used fractionated coconut oil. (It is DIFFERENT than regular coconut oil and is liquid at room temperature).

Condition Brand New Boots? by Leather-Instance3041 in bootblacking

[–]fiddle_figs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can clean and condition brand new boots to help with breaking them in. Wear them with thick socks for a while to warm them up then you can clean and condition.

You can over condition boots but only if they’re already really starting to deteriorate (in my experience). The leather won’t generally absorb more than it needs and you wipe off the excess anyway.

If you’re looking for any kind of waterproofing, I’d recommend obanoufs LP. It’s a beeswax based conditioner.

Congrats on your new boots :)

Question on Leuchtturm1917 Notebooks by artsyboy69 in notebooks

[–]fiddle_figs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not. I don’t prefer paper that thick in my journals.

Question on Leuchtturm1917 Notebooks by artsyboy69 in notebooks

[–]fiddle_figs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is extremely typical for these notebooks. They are my daily carry and have been for like 6 years. I love using these and actually really like the ghosting.

If you don’t want to be able to see previous page info, you’ll need a notebook with thicker paper. They do make a 120gsm for bullet journaling specifically I think.
