I have a punch that makes 4mm, 7mm, and 10mm rounded corners and, let me tell you, I feel invincible with this shit.

Someone in a WhatsApp group said Jaime Lannister from "Game Of Thrones" could take on Aragorn from "The Lord Of The Rings"...

I have left that group chat.

And launched the nuclear warhead.

It is the only justified response.

This weekend I wrote separate letters with all of my fountain pens. The deep lilac, indigo, sepia, and petrol green inks are are pure fire.

Yes, but did I write it in fountain pen?

If not, then it is not admissible evidence in a court of law.

Despite the casting choice—which doesn't thrill me, to be honest—I look forward to seeing this film after watching "Predator: Killer of Killers."

Also, @mandyjwatson.bsky.social from @brainwavez.bsky.social writes some of the best film reviews around.

Early and mid-twenties me could not know that using my new scoring stylus and a guillotine would be the highlight of the week in my late thirties.

I curse my enemies with minor tech-related problems for which there is no support, not even the most obscure reddit threads.

Today is Fountain Pen Day.

Celebrate creatively and cursively.

It seems to me inevitable that regardless of where you start in the arts or sciences you wind up being an event planner. Festivals, conferences, and then you die.

As we say here in Windhoek, where French is not an official language: "Ondi premier gauo nepa gauo...."
The Ivory Coast is changing the way French is spoken and France is mad about it.

Today I used "kibosh" in a casual sentence without provocation so now we can wrap up 2025.

Look, man, the minimum duration of the parting phase of "Okay, bye, bye" and "I gotta go"—whether in-person or online—is three (preferably five) minutes and anything less just means they hate your guts and you should hex the shit out of them before they curse you.

My embossing tools confirm me as the leader of the pack.

Last week I posted two handwritten letters and that is how I display and assert dominance.

Once more with feeling: there is amazing art—music, painting, theatre, film, literature, design, and so many other disciplines—out there if you are prepared and willing to look for it. The algorithm will not bring you that which matters most.

Today I am going to mail some letters and purchase some more stamps because I am, quite simply, the superior life form.

All of my fountain pens now have converters instead of cartridges and that is all of the adulting I am doing for the rest of the year!

Two of the best feelings in the world: 1) the right-hand page of a good notebook and 2) a freshly-flushed fountain pen that glides over that page.

At the end of “Sinners” they should have let Mahershala Ali dust those two vampires as a set up for the Blade reboot we all deserve!

Dress code: like you have just gotten back into the swing of writing and vowed never—NEVER—to step away from the craft for so long ever again.
