Not surprised, but very sad to see them go.

Slightly lower temps than the norm are almost always better imo

I only just realized that this happened lol

I did the exact same thing

LoTRMemes stands alone

Hell yeah, Freakazoid was great

Your first pen? You really dove in didn’t you?

I’m familiar with that feeling lol

Oh yeah, I’m not saying it’s objectively bad. I have chronic migraines and trying to play it would make them worse, so it literally made my head hurt.

Well that’s disappointing. What’s wrong with it?

If only the art style didn’t make my head hurt

Dude, I would cry tears of joy if that were to happen

It’s not as much of a pain as I make it out to be, but you do have to be quite intentional with it if that makes sense. With the Falcon for instance, you can write with it normally all day but you’ll get very little line variation. To get that good, good flex action going, you have to stop and think about each stroke. At least that’s my experience. There are some potential problems like railroading, but that’s usually from going to quickly.

I agree with @toga@sopuli.xyz, you’re the one who deserves the thanks here. I didn’t participate very much on r/fountainpens, but browsed it a fair bunch. It was one of the only subreddits I was sad to leave behind as everyone there always seemed so pleasant. I was stunned to see a Lemmy community for it on my first day here and very happy to see that it carries that same spirit.

I saw something about sharing being broken, but that seemed to be the only main issue.

Holy flashbacks

I just want Leclerc to have a good race goddamn

I don’t think it’s really that surprising given how a lot of us got here. Depending on what other bullshit comes up, I bet the reddit talk will die off in a week or so.

Well spotted!

Oh yeah definitely. I’m not much of a bluegrass fan, but banjo is absurdly overlooked as an instrument imo. If you slow down the typical, really fast fingerpicking (which just isn’t my cup of tea), it tends to sound sort of haunting to me in a way I really enjoy.
