🎉 Congratulations Louis @swagboygalore.bsky.social!

Okay fountain pen fans, I have a new favorite ink*: Pilot Iroshizuku Syo-ro! (Dew on Pine Tree) It's more green-teal than Ku-Jaku (Peacock), it's on the wetter side but dries fast, it's a great shader, and -- my favorite part -- it changes hue as it dries! *Subject to change daily

Congrats Claire!

YAY STEPH!!! @scmillsbooks.bsky.social

Me: Moon observation Livestream is amazing and mind-blowing 😍 Me: 😭😭😭 They're naming the crater Carroll 😭😭😭 Also me: Wait, was that a Nutella flyby?

I really like being an armchair astronaut. Am excellent at saying nominal. Good luck out there, Integrity! 🙌🌕
