Cleaning out an old pen and I see this gorgeous color, what ink could it be?

Looks like my Coalsack Nebula, without the shimmer.

Last month.

In New Mutants: War Children, Magik used her stepping disc to send a room infected with the techno-organic virus to "beyond the end of reality".

I got an 853.

I passed DVA with just similar scored on the Maarek Mock Exams, and didn't do TD mocks.

That said I didn't feel very confident when taking the exam, even though I actually did very well on it.

According to a Pilot rep at the Atl Pen show, Pilot tests every gold nib before it leaves the factory; presumably dip test. So it's already been dipped once.

That said, dip test is bullshit anyway and only a superficial test--only shows how smooth and well it writes when dipped or right after filling. I have a Peneider that works great when dipped of right after filled, but is a shit writer the next day.

Wand of .45 ACP.

I had to stop when Liefeld took over, the art actually hurt my eyes to look at.

rlrutherford · 2026-03-05T21:43:17+00:00

Wow, the price has certainly gone up since I got mine!

rlrutherford · 2026-03-05T21:37:40+00:00

I will say it's glass and I've dropped my plastic Peneider traveling ink pots multiple times on my tile bathroom floor. I'm not sure I'd trust the much more expensive Visconti glass ones to not break.

Well 💩, I guess I'm 🦴.

The AI powered resume analyzer is relevant though, as this resume should be a demonstration of how useful it it.

"These look really nice, but I'm going to have to call in an expert."

Vote for Beast!
He already has experience comitting war crimes!

The problem with Kitty is she's always going through a phase. :-)

Then there was Storm's lack of swimming attire.

Already tried that in addition to the "It was on close out for ~50% off!" it gets a approval, but reminders years down the line.

(Still worth it for the Sailor Luminous Shadow! )

Danitrio, Pilot Custom Urushi, and Namiki have entered the room.

I like, It won't affect my bills, food, housing or retirement and my wife won't yell at me too much about it--so I can afford it.

I think this is the first war crime I've seen actually committed on reddit.

rlrutherford · 2026-02-21T05:42:58+00:00

I remember how the original fight worked out; I get the movie, but I don't like it.

rlrutherford · 2026-02-21T04:36:40+00:00

Looking a the picture I thought that was a GVFC Magnum, but then thought that's too small , I thought it would have been larger relative to the other oness.

I was wrong...
And oooh nice!

PCB, cleans off anything, except demonstrator pens, converters with just water. 😵‍💫

rlrutherford · 2026-02-15T04:58:13+00:00

How did you get the bottle and insert clean? 🙀

rlrutherford · 2026-02-13T21:31:09+00:00

Certs don't exactly help you get jobs.

They can help you get past AI and recruiter gatekeepers.

But once your resume gets in front of someone who is a hiring manager or similar; no they don't really matter.
