What an abject fucking idiot. Just look around the world where it is successful.

It's early in the day, but I think this comment wins the Internet for me.

Good grief, that comment is absolute GOLD. 🌟

It's a blessing to be able to count on you, coming up with human-crafted wit-diamonds.

Thank you, the person who crafted it was a true artisan.

Understood. I wish things were not the way they are. 🙁

Appendix: damn, I hate typos - it's Giddins. If you are interested in these, you can search for "Pens by Casey" - he has a presence on Instagram, Facebook, and a number of YouTube videos. He works in that place called Australia. Check out his amazing work!

4/4 - ...turquoise, and ivory acrylic make it a natural companion to the Casey, and that sealed the deal. I use it with a Kakimori brass dip nib for swatching, and from here on out, these two aesthetic twins will be partners in inky crime.

Friends are good. Pen friends are, possibly, the best. 🌟

The same fountain pen as the first photo, now with the cap off showing more detail of the dark wood, blue and silver acrylic, and a silver nib. The background is a set of bookshelves with books.

3/4 - I was uncertain if it was the pen for me, but when trying it at home I happened to glance to the right to a pen/brush cup. There sits one of my earliest purchases, a bespoke dip nib holder. I don't even remember the maker, save that he was from Arizona. The combination of another dark wood...

2/4 - ...(Figured Gidgee, [Acacia Cambagei] from Western Australia) with mostly a blue/grey/silver acrylic and a couple of accents. It is big, but light, and well-balanced in hand. I put a favorite old nib in it, a Nagahara-ground italic from Franklin-Christoph.

🧵 1/4 - "I am rich in my friends".

I was recently gifted a lovely fountain pen from a dear friend, hoping that I would enjoy it. The pen is by Casey Giddens, a maker whom I've admired from afar but had never held one of his pens. This one is gorgeous, pairing a warm, dark-toned wood...

Tactics?? What tactics??

All he is doing is gaming the stock market for his kids and cronies.

Please stop causing me to involuntarily spit out my beverage. Thanks! 🙃

Neither of the dolts on the screen have any comprehension of how inexorably stupid that statement is. That obsequious numpty doesn't even deserve a podcast, yet he is head of the FBI. <continualfacepalm>

Go get 'em, Allison.

Jon Stewart thinks the guy being healed in AI Trump-as-Jesus image looks very familiar: 'Freaking me the f--- out' — Entertainment Weekly On Sunday evening, Trump posted — and then deleted — a digital depiction of himself as a Christ-like figure, which the president says he thought was

Brett Kavanaugh testifies that he likes beer.

Excellent underlying message in this.

Indeed—Elect more women!

A man with a broken brain.

Homunculus J. Hillbilly is lecturing Pope Leo. God *has* to be laughing his ass off.

I have completed the assignment!

Pigskin Dickwad should shut up.

Someone tell Ass Hassett that what I'm "imagining" is life without DJT. Then we can start having a normal country again.

Could not agree more!

That is very unfortunate and I hope there can be a solution that will continue your coverage. This is not my state, I'm not familiar with the program, and I wish you the best. Healthcare should be available to all in a country this rich. I do not have the answer, though.

The idiocy burns.

This performative hillbilly needs a deliverance.

EyelinerMan is such a loser that he can't even see how constantly backing losers demonstrates his abject insignificance. He not only can't read a room, he can't read a global movement.

Send the hillbilly home for good.

I'm not laughing, either at you or the situation. You did a good thing.
