It’s so depressing to watch SCOTUS’ complicity.. there’s the occasional headline grabbing things ofc, but as a lawyer, I’ve had to read the steady flood of opinions cementing competitive authoritarianism..

Fountain Pen Review: Opus 88 Mini Fountain Pen in Sakura Cherry Blossoms

I have always been a fan of Opus 88 pens for their look/style. Unfortunately, they’re also often quite large pens which makes them not as comfortable for me to use. So I was thrilled a few we…

Shout-out to the #Pilot #Prera fountain pen for having that 70s retro vibe -- and that 70s #PocketPen energy that usually costs far more than this one. It's big enough for me to use uncapped, but small enough to *almost* rival a #Kaweco Sport.

#PilotPrera #FountainPen

I've got 6 small #FountainPen's now and I'm not sure how to classify them. Here they are, roughly from largest to smallest:

Small #PocketPen (fit full sized cartridge)
• Pilot Prera, nice and new
• Teiken double-sided pocket pen, circa 1970s

Very small (still supports a #converter)
• Kaweco Sport
• Jinhao 82, a Sailor 11 (mini) knockoff

Almost too small (int'l #cartridge only)
• Kaweco Lilliput
• No-name brass/wood thing that costs under $5 each in quantities of 3-5

#Teiken #FountainPen, pocket sized, probably from the 1960s to early 1970s, when long-shory pens were all the craze. (Probably produced by #Sailor.)

I really like small pens that post full-size in general, and this one posts really securely.

Nib: steel, both fine and medium. Turn it around to write with a different line width. Writes a little dry but I really like it that way.
