Is the world going to shit?

Yes. Yes, it is.

Did I just get an air compressor and airbrushes?

Yes. Yes, I did.

Might as well make art in these last days before the apocalypse.

I have run out of things to fold using my bamboo paper folder. What fresh hell is this?

I am supposed to be working on my next book. Instead I made a glass bottle cutter.

It is not procrastination; it is character research.

I am at that age where I have to decide what to spend my money on: power tools or fountain pens?

As far as mid-life crises go, I might be getting off easy.

Err...no. Please. Just no.

I have three new Sailor Compass Fude De Mannen fountain pens so obviously I am winning 2026 already.

In "Black Panther", during the battle on the mound, in a fight between two tribes of the most technologically advanced nation on Earth, while vibranium-powered space ships were taking off, one side summoned *checks notes* a war rhinoceros.
#FilmSky, a quick question; what is the pettiest thing you have had to be annoyed at a film? I ask because I am watching The Gift from 2000, and the main character does divination with Zener Cards, which are not the same thing as Tarot at all. Why go for a more boring looking option?

The main mission for 2026 is to get Mandalorian Beskar armour.

I now have a bamboo folding tool and a rolling ruler so I win 2025.

Good luck for 2026.

Question: How many fountain pens do you have?
Answer: Yes.

Even at my big age I have to slow down when I write "rhythm", "pharaoh", and "occasion" because I can never remember if they are written with "rh" or "ry", "ra" or "ro", or double cc and ss.

I have a dedicated water brush for moistening the back of stamps so that is how I am spending my late thirties.

Nothing quite like sending letters in the mail and not knowing if they will arrive at their final destination.

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.
November 16, 2025 at 12:28 PM
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.
