yes yes! thanks for sharing your Libby fact. also, jetpens is indeed the best. I thought about a side project of scraping all their fountain pens and visualizing all the dimensions of pens (sizes, color, etc). never did, but I still think of it from time to time 😅

a fellow stationary and pens nerd! I got a retractable fountain pen for my birthday and it is just the best. I've seen this pen advertised to me, but I keep on telling myself I have enough pens 🥲 so tempting!
