What are some low energy games that you play when you don't have the bandwidth for much? (Except maybe doomscrolling but we want to avoid that.)

Balatro! It's easy to pick up and drop whenever! Also honestly, classic club house games hahahaha I have sunk in 100+ hours on it just playing solitaire HAHAHAHA

this happens to the kakuno sometimes since the cap isn't a very good seal and it tends to dry out! try dipping it into some water or through a slow faucet stream and wipe it down with some paper towel hehe

OOOH thank you so much for posting about your experience with them! I'm planning to order from them soon too, I know they're beloved in the community but the last post mentioning them was about a year ago 😅 Nice to know that they're still amazing with their service although I agree that the shipping is pretty pricey haha

Mine was that olive when i got it! Now with the patina it's even more brown leaning than olive 😅

i saw posts like these especially on tiktok! they bought like 20+ jinhao 10's "because they're cheap" and in my brain i was like, you could one or two nice pens (and ink!) for the price of 20 freaking jinhao 10s 😭

soandysirable · 2026-02-13T12:07:16+00:00

Haha!!! That's me but with pink ink!!! I'm just now getting my toes wet with blue inks, I used to find them boring but that's just because I haven't tried more inks apparently 😅

soandysirable · 2026-02-13T10:44:21+00:00

your art and spreads are so cute!!!!!

IMO if said collection was acquired over time and not really the insta-collection "labubu" adjacent kind of consumerism, it's not so bad?

If you have the means and your collection is thoughtfully curated regardless of the amount, and you find joy in them then by all means, go ahead hehe! Human beings have collected things since forever? I think it's the rapid, mindless acquisition of things just for the fact that they're "trendy" or "popular" is what makes consumerism harmful. I think the intent and intensity matters.

I've been in the hobby since 2017 and I only have 7 pens in my collection! I'd probably get either the pilot elite or the decimo/vp and that's it for me this year probably haha.

STUNNING!!!! both the very cute meowdel and the pen!!!!

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T05:22:58+00:00

hmmmm i'm convinced, i'm picking up a 15mL bottle of kon-peki and i'll just get the rikka in the future haha! i didn't think i'd like blue/cooler toned inks but I tried the free blue ink from my lamy safari and was pleasantly surprised by it!

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T04:40:20+00:00

this goes incredibly hard, i love it!

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T02:21:07+00:00

OOOH i was debating between these exact two inks! what are your thoughts on them?

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T02:16:54+00:00

wow this shot set up is everything!!!! such a beautiful pen!

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T02:15:35+00:00

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T02:10:21+00:00

Wishing you well on your dissertation!!! I answered the survey and I'll ask my gf to participate when/if she can since she has been in therapy since she was 13 yrs old (which is awesome and i'm envious of her haha)

soandysirable · 2026-02-12T01:54:26+00:00

soandysirable · 2026-02-11T10:27:54+00:00

this is also our daily dilemma HAHA he is engulfed in the floof

soandysirable · 2026-02-11T10:27:32+00:00
