every few weeks they invent a new blond haired idol and I'm just supposed to know who that is. it's ridiculous.

It's always "the corporations are going to put pay walls on your cybernetic legs" or "your cybernetic legs are so dangerous with their built in machine guns and jet feet" and never "your new legs are so stylish and shiny. i love the colour. congrats on being free from chronic pain forever"

jetpens just started stocking a product that will be an ergonomic game-changer for a lot of folks!

this is the kutsuwa punyu spiral pencil grip. unlike most pencil grips that are solid tubes and have a fixed maximum diameter they can wrap around,

the punyu is a spiral! it wraps like spaghetti.

this means that, unlike almost every other grip on the market, this grip can be added to almost every pen or pencil! and that includes fountain pens and gel pens. you can see it here being used on a pilot metropolitan fountain pen and a sakura gelly roll gel pen.

(not an affiliate link, not sponsored, you can buy from wherever you want if interested, jetpens has a lot of specs of their products that I appreciate)

a jetpens review even mentions someone using these on the lamy safari line of fountain pens. the ones with a really sharp triangle grip. these grips seem really really versatile, especially if you are about to sit down and take notes for hours on end!

if you do use this with a fountain pen, I recommend making sure the fountain pen is not prone to hard starts or drying out, has a good flow (whether that flow is from a wet nib or a wet feed or both), and/or that you use a relatively wet ink. because the goal is to have the fountain pen continue to write even if you put it down for a few minutes, so you do not have to keep removing the grip, capping the pen, uncapping the pen, or reapplying the spiral grip!

over the years some folks have asked me if I know of anything like this, and well, now we both do! if you get this let me know what kinds of pens and pencils you use it with and how well it works! this is a really exciting pencil grip!

the end of the world is a “sometimes” situation. you can wake up in the morning and it be “yes. today is the end of the world”. but sometimes it can be “no, no it’s not, it was the end of the world yesterday but not today. you missed it”

parents were amazed how well the dogs walked on leash so in case this trick is more uncommon than I thought here’s my training technique

If a dog pulls on the leash just stop and stand there

that’s it that’s the trick you become a seat belt it works real fast. Start walking again if they stop pulling & even better if you wait until they look at you first (sometimes u might have to call them back to stop pulling if they are a bit dumb)

The policy states that after just three absences, schools will start intervention. If the student misses school for eight or more days, they will be referred to juvenile court.

I had a moment of "What the fuck?" and then remembered

America.

love how foo fighters from jojo is objectively the dead body of a young woman who had her body and mind parasitized by a collection of sentient plankton. but then she's like "yo this girl whose body i've stolen was into kidnapping children and she was already dead anyway so it's not like she was using it" and the result is a cute and cool weird girl so nobody cares

came back wrong but it's fine actually cause we like her. good for her
