I want to be able to grip my stylus the way I do with traditional pencils. Wacom pens have short nibs that are only using the very tip, I know the apple pencil can do this (sort of) but I'm just wondering if any of you have come across a pen that can allow me to do this, be it custom or whatever.

The salt water air weathers your metal shell. You wish you were breathing it in rather than a stale, filtered version of it. Wish you could see the sky in all its brilliant nuance rather than through pared down eyes made for killing.

I feel like we don't appreciate baking soda enough for its cleaning and...baking properties. Is there a dark said to it is it mined by children somewhere and there's only enough left for the next 5 years or can I openly celebrate it. Don't fail me now bluesky-reply-guy!
