I forgot to add the words “fountain pen” for the feed because it’s been a long weekend.
I had thought I did not anything further from the Colorado Pen Show and then I found out that this Good Made Better prototype pen that had what I thought looked like a decorative moon in the cap is actually an adjustable rollstop. So it’s mine now.
I was totally bamboozled by the rollstop! Had no idea and then when I found out I immediately made plans to come back to the booth.
And I didn’t realize until after I purchased it that the ebonites are the same used in two of my favorite Esterbrooks.

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

🧪Did I really have time for this story? No, I did not, for reasons I'll be sharing soon. Did I absolutely feel compelled to write it anyways? You know I did! A viral mystery solved by science. Read on @sciencenews.bsky.social

Also, I have a new to-do for my trip to Chicago for #SciWri25 next month!
The viral Chicago ‘Rat Hole’ almost certainly wasn't made by a rat
Researchers used methods from paleontology to analyze the quirky local landmark, created when a rodent of a certain size fell into wet concrete.

The fountain pen show in Denver is this weekend and ordinarily I’d be saving my pennies solely for that, but it’s also time for Halloween ink releases and something tells me this particular one might not be available forever, so.

The “Oops, protein powder is full of lead” thing would explain so much.

Hey Colorado residents, particularly people in Fort Collins, but also those who are somewhat near: my sister and brother in law are running a study on an easy, portable method to help maintain indoor air quality during adverse outside events (like smoke or pollution).

It is a beautiful fall morning in Denver and football fans have been in front of the TV since the 7:30a kickoff, which meant there was no line for a change at my favorite bakery. Got a mortadella sandwich and an apple galette.

Is my mental health good? No. But am I at least achieving all of my basic responsibilities? Also no? Well at least I have a respite to look forward to?
Yesterday I did not want to leave the house. Today I made it to my favorite bakery and talked to people while waiting in line in the morning sun. A better day, even before I had pastries!
Ordinarily Rapido-eze is my go-to. Homo Sapiens being slightly porous makes me a bit suspicious some extra steps might be needed — @inkdependence.bsky.social you reviewed the Lava, did they mention any extra cleaning steps/precautions?

Here’s a thread to do your battered heart some good.
Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵
