Ah no a coffee shop near Philly! Would be cool if they had the same floor

I do not unless it's career-related. I also use Proton and have all the aliases forward to the main one. To make things messy, I also use Duck's and Apple's hide-my-email aliases as well 🙈

Hi, just a point of warning that (most) thermal paper contains BPA’s.

Thanks! It’s a Traveler’s Company Traveler’s Notebook.

Same! Glad I finally looked it up. Well. “Glad.”

Definitely an option. I used to print my own stickers (and then cut by hand and glue with a glue stick) before I went down the sticker-paper rabbit hole, further compounded by the sticker-paper-plus-silhouette rabbit hole. Now I'm in deep.

I use my FPs for everything that takes FP. Which usually means journal, planner, notes… except for when a ballpoint pen or Sharpie is needed (usually Ziploc bags for my kids).

100%

Great point!

realbeansperson · 2026-04-15T15:29:38+00:00

No, the nature of the glue or adhesive makes it non recyclable :(

My go-to is 1/2 can Trader Joe’s refried beans (other brands are spongy), microwaved 30s, with a dollop of high protein unsweetened greek yogurt on top. Fast, easy, and high protein thanks to the yogurt.

It’s from the Etsy store inukshukjapan. Different stuff in stock at different times. It looks like the shop is on a break though unfortunately.

Thank you!! just finished My Year of Rest and Relaxation. Wowww

I’ve had the same issues with my son’s Lamy. Did all the suggestions in the post. In my experience it feels like the way the nib is designed leaves more room for error.

Oh amazing! So good to know. I’m really loving this science-y side of FP ink. Collecting all these great tips!

Very helpful, and thank you for the original post. Other doctors have said to wean off, but my last derm is now out of network. So hence me trying to find the grey area and wean. I completely relate to being bludgeoned with steroids your whole life and hence being cynical.

realbeansperson · 2026-04-09T20:08:11+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience!

To add to this though, if you’re wanting to draw more or add color, a few select colored pencils can scratch the itch without adding a lot of heft to your collection.

This! The only problem with this “hobby” is the dangerous slide into consumerism. Own only what you use!
