A fountain pen lays on a hobonichi planner on a coffee table

I’ve like the knife point nib, also. This is the Hongdian 100

Great to have a reliable piston fountain pen to carry around away from the desk.

a map from 1918 showing the interurban network sprawling across Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio

One side obsession from my research into the 1920s is the extensive network of ELECTRIC trains that used to connect cities and towns across the central Midwest called the Interurban. We had this more than a hundred years ago. The things we had and the things we lost.

Lightning a keyboard on fire is a pretty good symbol for encouraging people to draw

The first mistake the girl made was to laugh — but could you, constant reader, have done otherwise?

Mood in the city

There it is folks, down to ZERO snow at the 9,700’ Lake Eldora SNOTEL station. The snowpack is melted, kaput. 😢

I feel sorry for all the AI slopulists out there, because it's pretty clear that they don't know that. They don't know what their voice is. They don't know what they bring to the world. They don't know why someone else should read their work.

What a pitiful place to be.
