  • That Parker looks nice. Is the grip as comfy as it looks?

    You want hefty in hand then can recommend this baby:

    It’s the stainless steel version of the 2000. Not cheap though. The Kawecos are a gateway drug. I’m some years in to my addictions.

    It’s a piston filler so bloody loads of ink to journal the demise of civilisation.


  • It is a small nib but it’s flexible and writes generously. Also it looks smaller because it’s recessed into the body, very much like a Lamy 2000 nib. Wouldn’t recommend the 2000 though as a) they’re quite pricey and b) quite broad in the hand.

    Joyfully cheaper options are things like the platinum preppy and kawecos. I have a kaweco sport with a gold nib which I think was about £40 and it writes like a dream.

    Hope this is helping with everybody’s existential dread btw.

    Look, I have no love for Trump, but I agree. Also wtf is with these reports that people in the crowd were alerting cops to someone climbing on the roof and they seemed slow to process? Do they not have protocols and a radio channel to the secret service - even if they’re confused could they not have alerted someone more professional?

    This shouldn’t have been allowed to happen. It’s a disgrace.












  • First he came for escrow services, and I said nothing, because I didn’t know anything about escrow services.

    Then he came for cars, and I’m not a huge car kinda guy so meh.

    Then he came for rockets, and a rocket scientist I am not.

    Then he did something, I think, about tunnels. Who knows about tunnels? Anyone?

    And then he came for software/social media, and I, and a whole shedload of people happen to know a fair bit about software and social media, and then we knew he was an idiot, and it was too late.

    In b4 politics…
