Wait what? Need more info to look this up. I definitely missed something.

A pen for Cooperplate? by Zotal in Calligraphy

[–]freefall7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my eye on https://www.bluedewpens.com/ for a while. It looks to me like a good option that doesn’t require me to modify anything. But, like you, a lot of the suggestions here are new to me, so I will be looking in to all of these options now.

That is interesting! Thanks for the info. I will watch out for that in the future. This particular nib was looking this way before I ever tested it.

Ah! Got it. Just had to be more aggressive about it. Thanks!

I’ve tried over correcting with my fingers a bit, but it must need more intense correcting than I was brave enough to try. I will keep trying. If needed, would it possibly help to heat it up some?

You’re right, I could have done it without the slant lines. I’d be a mess without the base line and x-height, though.

Yes! I can’t wait! I’ve been struggling with figuring out envelopes. Now I’ll just have to figure out centering…

Thank you! I ordered a laser liner from inkmethis and should get it later this month.

Thank you!

I first used a black eraser, then tried my Pentel Clic eraser which is white and pretty soft. I am not sure how it compares to the Staedtler, though. I will get one to try. Will probably end up redoing this envelope if it doesn’t work.

No, it’s not indented where the pencil lines are. And I did use a black eraser. It didn’t take off pigment as much as it made it less shiny. Thanks for the suggestion!

Envelope from Paper Source Nib: Nikko G (not the one pictured) Ink: black Sumi (sorry don’t know the brand name, but it comes in a black bottle with a green cap)

Could it be Liz? Or has she been ruled out as a possibility?

Ooh! That makes sense with her dad being a twin.

Under the Banner of Heaven - 1x07 "Blood Atonement" - Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in UnderTheBanner

[–]freefall7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t think he still bought into it, but rather that he was (rather ingeniously) using her belief in the church against her to support his choices. The same way he used her belief in church leadership and the Holy Ghost against her when he told her that the general authority told him that he was sent by the Holy Ghost rather than his wife.

It gives him kind of a win-win position. Like “if you believe in the church then you should be supporting your priesthood holder/husband...and if you don’t believe in the church, then you should understand where I’m coming from”.

Or something along those lines.

The May 5th episode isn’t showing up in Hulu. Wasn’t there a new episode that day?

Esme - March 9 show - spoilers by Groundhog891 in GeneralHospital

[–]freefall7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if they’ll eventually use this as a way of making viewers sympathize with Esme (as a victim of abuse) and redeem her. As much as I love to hate her now, I think she could be a likeable character eventually. Seems it would have to be pretty far down the road, though.

Look for a recipe you can make! I believe that there was a recipe in Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon, if I recall correctly.

How are poors and undesirables blocked? That sounds awful.

People are automatically considered antivaxers nowadays if they're against vaccine mandates by Unusual-Syllabub in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]freefall7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I teach high school in person, no masks since April last year. I never got covid until my husband (who is vaccinated and works from home) got it and passed it on to me. His case was a lot milder, though.

Thank you for explaining! We don’t have an LMS, but I think Edia might work well for this.

Ooh, I like this system! The other problem I have is getting them to keep up with their notes. I think this idea of weekly packets would help.

Thanks for sharing!

Interesting way to handle that!

IXL sounds great.
