I don’t need productivity enablers that are really productivity-as-lifestyle consumer traps. And this is $200.

But it doesn’t mean I won’t stare longingly at it for a while.

@Purplebiker I wasn't even alive then and I still enjoy watching her get pied every time I'm reminded of it. Good for this guy.

Watched Memories of Murder for the first time tonight. I always like these types of procedural films, and this one is making me think a lot; the comparison to Zodiac is one I hear a lot and it's pretty reasonable on a lot of levels. There's a good review at IndieWire that contextualizes the film in the politics and events of South Korea in the 1980s and it's fascinating.

@ash Oh this looks lovely

@sunguramy yes! Pilot cartridges should be cross compatible!

@sunguramy Oh if Amazon makes you uncomfortable it looks like The Pen Show has it as well (I haven't ordered from them before but they seem to be legit): https://www.thepenshow.com/Pilot-Metropolitan-Purple-Fountain-Pen-p/1676.htm

@sunguramy If you're in the US, Amazon has it in stock with the stub nib (which shouldn't matter if you're swapping) https://a.co/d/7wTYos6

@jaycatt7 @la_sombra For what it's worth, TrekBBS has a thread on this specific question. It may be Bennett trying to defend his position after the fact (and I can't find the original source) but there's some discussion of it that Nichols was disappointed but ultimately on-board because of a sense of "quality over quantity"

@sunguramy get a Pilot Metropolitan and do a nib swap! It’s a lovely pen, affordable but with an all metal body. Swapping the Kakuno EF into the Metropolitan, which only goes to F, is a pretty common practice

Self, I need to remind you once again that today is not the day to wear multiple layers and try out new clothing. I just need you to remem—No! Put that linen shirt down IT’S LONG SLEEVED YOU DON’T NEED TO LAYER IT OVER THE TANK TOP JUST WEAR THE TANK TOP I STG

The rest of the complex finally caught on so the Facebook group is on it

I stepped in a puddle of dog pee in the elevator 😭😭😭

Trying to find the thematic connection between M3gan, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Grizzly Man, because that was my film viewing today for some reason…

@Jason TATu was *such* a purposeful choice.

@germ

Ok fine the woodchopping guy and the two Asian guys who run to restaurants in nyc can stay…

Paring back my non-Masto social feeds until it’s recipes, local food recommendations, and people cleaning cast iron

@ryanhg That peach one is pretty decent!
