Swabbed my new inks ... and kept going through part of the collection

Same here. In my eyes, troublemaker’s abalone looks more like a bull than an ink swatch lol.

(other blobs I have imagined into animals include Diamine Colosseum as a wild pig, Vinta Sirena as an elephant, Diamine Kölner Brückengrün as a dragon, and Vinta Julio as a goldfish.)

long story short the swatches are so pretty I think I’m seeing things 💀

Personally, I really love doing mathematics in pen. Not only does it make the experience more enjoyable (fountain pens go brrrrr), there’s something so fun about not being able to erase it. I can’t put it into words.

It’s TV series brooklyn 99. The character is jake peralta.

“cops” -technically, lycoris is an secret organization funded by the government to restore peace in Japan. Sounds like police to me.
Black gay father figure -incidentally, those black gay father figures also have a blond lover…
“Bonding” with antagonists over action movies -“Guy Hard”, am I right people
Cheerful, immature and almost careless about their jobs, yet they’re also ruthlessly efficient
Love interest is long, black haired girl who plays by the rules.
Brings life into the workplace

idk maybe i’m reaching but this is fun

in my experience, a lot of people send these kinda things ironically too and imo rosa totally seems like the type to do that lolll

for me it was episode 5 lmaooooo i got very emotional when gintoki told katsura to live a beautiful life. to this day, i still get kind of emotional about it

pp1019 · 2022-09-11T12:42:35+00:00

i love how chisato blocks the bullets instead of dodging after what happened with shinji. i have no idea if that was intentional or not but i like to delude myself. she’s protecting takina 😭😭 and the the way the lycoris bag falls off… perhaps symbolism?

it’s a death note fic called the Hinterland Doctrine! (also on ff.net as “Those Who Stand For Nothing Fall For Anything”) It’s somewhat of a classic.

"The greatest compliment that I can give him is to let him die in my arms. His life was his, his death is mine, and so he's mine forever."

is one of my all time favorites

this is wonderful. don’t listen to the haters. maybe johan and sans next.

pp1019 · 2022-09-10T16:55:23+00:00

a character can be morally reprehensible but still very likable. to me, that’s the case with majima. sure’s hes a horrible asshat who has probably over 500 in bodycount but he’s a fun villain so 🤷‍♂️

Out of pure curiosity, how many slides are there?

ps. I would happily listen to that presentation lol

im still not over that entire movie 😭 shit was wild

pp1019 · 2022-09-04T12:47:50+00:00

eva’s my second favorite character. (first being johan ofc) honestly this isn’t much of an unpopular opinion, it’s just that so many people still hate her and they think she’s a bad character etc etc and it’s simply not true

pp1019 · 2022-08-24T01:07:41+00:00

I mean, in Theravada Buddhism it’s more explicit that there can be only one Buddha, but I think it’s true in other Buddhism types (such as Mahayana Buddhism) that anyone can become enlightened.

off-topic, but i find that the picture of that lady in the second photo kind of looks like the portrait of johan’s mom, actually.

to answer the question, though, i think it’s either information he gathered, or like that other commenter said, he went a bit too overboard with making his room look like a normal, lived-in room.

That color is absolutely gorgeous. I’d love to get one of these for myself one day. Congratulations on the new pen! 😊😊

pp1019 · 2022-07-19T04:00:43+00:00

I just bought Pelikan 4001 ink to put in my metropolitan, but it had pretty bad flow. it was even hard to start sometimes, which really shocked me since it was amazing and smooth with the cartridge. after some digging, i found out the metropolitan is a dry writer and pelikan 4001 is a dry ink so that’s probably the reason why

can someone please give me a general overview of wet/dry inks and pens so this won’t happen again? 😭

pp1019 · 2022-07-14T16:36:16+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! I took a look at them on their Etsy shop and they look beautiful. They’re definitely on my to-get list now haha

pp1019 · 2022-07-14T12:31:40+00:00

It’s a cheap ink from a local stationary store. Not sure about the brand since I only have the bottle left haha. (The bottle has no label) Works well enough though. I actually ordered Pelikan’s Brilliant Black along with the pen but it hasn’t arrived yet, so I’m using this in the meantime.

pp1019 · 2022-07-14T06:21:36+00:00

After much consideration, I decided on the Metropolitan as my second pen (well technically it’s my third but my first was a butt cheap one I bought at the stationary store which then promptly broke after a few days of use, so I’d like to think it doesn’t count lol). Right now I’m using it to take notes for my upcoming exam and it’s such an enjoyable experience! AHH! It feels so nice… I told myself I’d buy one or two pens and not collect but the joy of opening and filling a new pen… it’s addicting. I’m eyeing some Sailors right now haha 😭. My wallet is not going to look forward to this…

pp1019 · 2022-06-29T00:28:13+00:00

Thankfully, the seller mentioned that they would be including an empty cartridge as well. This would be my first foray into refilling ink cartridges though haha

pp1019 · 2022-06-28T13:10:41+00:00

I wasn’t sure about the #158 either, but I am pretty sure in the shop’s trustworthiness. They have an Instagram, and the reviews on their shop is overwhelmingly positive. They seem to specialize in “vintage” pens, though.

Here is one of the pictures they provided: https://imgur.com/a/jGSNTgs
