On fountain pens and cursive:

Fountain pens slap. However, I dislike pencil strongly but also make too many mistakes for pen, so I am locked into erasable inks only. So it’s gel pens for me forever I guess! I write in either print or cursive depending, but I find most people my age or younger (I’m in my early 20s) just can’t read cursive. Hilariously, this means I do most of my writing printed but I write poetry and rants and journal entries in cursive.

I also use cursive to take meeting minutes when the meeting people are older than me because there’s like a 50/50 chance it impresses them lol.

shaking your hand 🤝 fountain pen gang!!

i’m a mechanical pencil guy on the rare occasions where i’m 1. handwriting and 2. Not writing in pen. but i always respect the og #2. i’m just a little neurotic about keeping a pencil perfectly sharp and a mechanical one solves that problem lol.

tbh using cursive Tactically is a big brain move and i respect that immensely. i’ve drawn comics for a long time and before i picked up fountain pens, said comics were the only reason i remembered how to write in cursive lol. it’s kind of a shame that more people can’t read it these days but hey, if it makes it a makeshift form of code, that’s pretty neat 😈

#sterge.eml #azure-clockwork #i will spend assloads of money on pens but balk at expensive mechanical pencils #which is a little stupid as i’m Very Picky about my mechanical pencils and i’m never perfectly happy with them #maybe if i got a good one i’d 1. be happy with it and 2. not lose it #there’s an idea. #thinking about erasable inks… that’s pretty slick #when i’m not using a fountain pen i prefer a 0.7 pilot g2 #i fuck with pilot g2s so hard #rollerball gang rise up 💪💪💪💪
