This week’s Short Stack is up, and it's about catching up. Catching up after the winter break, some of the critically-acclaimed films of 2025, and our favorite medical drama.

Just the bits that felt worth pocketing before the week slipped away.

The Weekly Short Stack for January 9, 2026

Each week, I pull together a short stack of the things that stood out – something I made, something I read or watched, an experience that left a small but noticeable impression in the week. Not a grand unifying theme, not a comprehensive recap. Just the bits that felt worth pocketing

#schondsgn sure makes one heck of a nib with the #monoc. These 4 have been putting in the work this week, inked with the following in order from L-R: Robert Oster Avocado, Diamine Early Dusk, Wearingeul Kyeong-Hee, and Caran d’ache Electric Orange. #FountainPen #FountainPens #anodized #robertosterink #diamine #Wearingeul #carandache

Splurged on a #fountainpen finer than my penmanship! #SchonDSGN faceted brass “Pocket Six” with a Fine #Monoc nib.

Super-smooth. Super happy. Super-light wallet for a bit, though.

After getting a #Monoc #FountainPen #nib I was impressed by how smooth it wrote but sad it was only in Medium. They recently released a fine version!

Very tempted. But the price! They are so pretty and so spendy at the same time… #decisions.

@inkdependence as for the #Monoc, it sure looks and seems amazing! 🤩🖋️

Got a treat for myself and it made me so happy! Faceted copper pen with a #Monoc titanium nib. Smoothest ever. ❤️

I'm very interested in picking this up, but at the moment it's too expensive a purchase. But I love it when people make different things because they can and want to, even if it's a niche product. #FountainPens #SchonDSGN #Monoc #PenAddict #innovation #engineering #IndustrialDesign
