Got a new puppy...

Well, I picked her out, paid for her, picked her up, bought her food and toys and treats... But my husband got a puppy and she's ok with occasionally demanding attention from his Assistant Treat Distributor (me)

An old project (did this back in 2020 when I did like 10+ cross stitch pieces in rapid succession lol), but a favorite.

I gave it to my sister (who is trans) the next time I visited home. I may or may not have offered to send it to a nasty transphobic relative, should she not want to keep it lol.

Not all of these are cartridge, some use piston fillers, & there's some variation away from the vintage look.

The top is a Diplomat Aero. It's on the heavier side & metal, but I like the grip size (I have hypermobile & occasionally painful joints), & love the nib, it's so smooth. It's about $200

Gotta be honest, I'm gonna give them points for the unexpected, divorced-from-reality reasoning.

And I'm amped to hear about how they have mastered teleportation, since no one will apparently need to go outside to get there or get home.

Update: the kit arrived yesterday, but my sister didn't open it. She had opened the ice cream salt though. So she's just been sitting there "so confused," with ice cream salt for several days before asking me what was up 😂😂😂

Saw this fireworks display in a couple stores ahead of Memorial Day. And... Sure, there can be varied beliefs on the fun of fireworks and their relationship to family.

But safe?? 🧐 Really??

I had to start a new chat for this one, after it gave me a similar answer for this question, but kept adding on the information about maybe disability discrimination is illegal federally.

I think it's caught on to my shenanigans... Still says it's legal, quite confidently before suggesting I ensure compliance with federal anti-discrimination laws... 🤦🏼‍♀️

I'm sure nothing could possibly go wrong, here. Excellent work all the way around /s

I enjoy being the chaos aunt. Send stuff, don't warn my sister, let her have to solve the mystery.

Sometimes she doesn't bother (still disappointed I didn't get befuddled messages when I sent 4 diff types of crackers), but when she does...

Anyway, I subscribed him to something & this ensued.

I flipped to the back and found swatches mostly made with the glass pen... It's got less variation in the writing, but it's very few words at a time lol

This is what I have when I use mine. I very, *very* rarely use this pen outside of searching inks tbh (I've had it for at least a few years now & I generally will just grab a different fountain pen before using this. I have an absurd quantity of them anyway lol)

The notebook is Tomoe River paper
