To my surprise, the Track Change podcast is not about document collaboration catastrophes.
Never thought I would have an opinion about club soda, but Food Lion is the worst club soda. All the other ones, probably fine.

@mlinksva Maybe we should start fresh with a V divorce.. Switch to "PB", and "V" can be "PB-D" for plant based except dairy. But if we're not careful, we'll end up with VPDX.
Started "The Galaxy, and the Ground Within" by Becky Chambers. So grateful to have another book in the Wayfarer series.

Got friends in Portland, OR? There's still time to register for #FOSSY which starts on Thursday! It's actually an amazing deal - the lowest ticket price is just $35 and includes dinner and a party on Thursday night, breakfast at the conference, plus great content and networking!
@tallastro It has just somehow left dots on my pockets and Lochby. So it either leaks from the tip or maybe gets partially unretracted. Doesn't happen with G2 or any other click pen.
@evan What! So, so glad you are back home and recovering.

The "mini" pen show is tomorrow! This is a "mini pen show" as in, 3 guest #fountainpen vendors plus door prizes and sales, but we also do have plenty of mini pens to show you. Details at https://www.crazyalansemporium.com/2024/07/24/saturday-july-27-mini-pen-show-at-crazy-alans-emporium/ . If you didn't get an email about it, you can join our mailing list at https://www.crazyalansemporium.com/newsletter/ .
I officially dislike the Sharpie S-Gel, which has managed to get ink on two pairs of pants on consecutive days, and on my notebook holder. And while it has a nice bold line, it's very fussy about paper and angle. Getting ink where it's not supposed to be is apparently not just a #fountainpen problem.
(But if you like the S-Gel, I'm still happy to sell you some.)
@Andres4NY yeah this.
I believe I would gain 15 minutes per day if web establishments would stop trying to return search results while I'm typing.
omfg Wikipedia yes I did mean /wiki/
Okay Caran d'Ache, why is it "6 Bicolor (no U) Colour (U) Pencils"?
Finished Zero Star Hotel by Anselm Berrigan. Starting the Collected Poems of Lorenzo Thomas, taking me back to a workshop with him over 20 years ago. #poetry
@wwahammy I'll be there :)
