We were in the middle of a recording session when we heard of Brian Wilson's passing. He had a huge impact on both of us and on music in general. (Featuring my good friend Black Suit Devil)

Sound ON for maximum hilarity.

Yes, I enjoy writing out Trailer Park Boys quotes with a fountain pen.

I'm getting more comfortable with the fude nib on this Hongdian 1861 Pro Fountain Pen. And I've finally nailed my ABCs...

New fountain pen day. I picked up a Hongdian 1861 Pro in brass with a fude nib because I was going for a vibe. For under $30 (converter included) I'm REALLY impressed!

How many pages on one fill for the Faber-Castell E-motion fountain pen? I have an answer.

I could wait longer than a week to see if the TWSBI Mini AL Fountain Pen hard starts with Octopus Fluids Write and Draw ink but I don't wait to...

I've been taking a breather from social media and doing a lot of reading instead. I finished "All The Sinners Bleed" by S.A. Cosby in one sitting yesterday and holy hell what a book. I'll be reading everything @blacktopkid.bsky.social has put out in short order 🤘💕

I typically am not a voracious reader of fantasy novels, but I just finished The Poppy War trilogy from @rfkuang.bsky.social and holy fuck... what a ride.

My heart goes out to all the satire writers out there. It's getting harder to stand out from the absurdity that is the "real news."

Acoustic guitar + harmonic tremolo is going to be a thing for me in 2025. Upgrading the solo setup to be able to fill more sonic space while playing fewer notes.

My Faber-Castell Ambition fountain pen with Platinum Carbon Black ink is my go-to pairing for yelling onto the page.

Welcome to the new Twitter refugees that pulled the plug after Elon's little display today. Fffuuu....

If @skylight.social is working the video angle, I'm definitely here for it.

Several of my US-based friends are once again able to access TikTok. It's kinda fascinating to watch this play out and I'm sure other governments (including Canada) are watching with great interest.

This is one of my oldest, most favourite fountain pens but also sometimes frustrating. It has a sharp cursive italic nib on it that WILL NOT comform to you. You have to confirm to it. I've had it for 17 years without mastering it, but it's fun to just see what happens when I let it lead me astray.
