Hi Fountain Pen people. I'm looking for a well behaved black shimmer ink. I have diamine night sky and wearinguel hades. And they're ok. But I have a custom 823 with the signature nib and expected a wet writer like that to do better. so would love some suggestions.

I would still like to know what all the AI genius kids think the economy will look like once everyone is out of work and replaced by "agents". Specifically what value is most of the work out there if there are no customers because everyone has no money?

All the stuff that people say absolutely cannot happen keeps happening. Probably not good.

Come the summer it will be interesting to see how trumponomics gets morphed into elonomics.

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

The number of people I used to follow who have come out of the woodwork celebrating RFK Jr confirmation has been kinda surprising TBH.

Only saw about 10-15 seconds of President Musk taking questions in the oval. With the sound off mind you. I thought it was nice that he let Little Donny sit behind his desk. We’re not a real country anymore. We should stop pretending as such.

So it's pretty clear that the answer is, in fact, Stupid AND evil! there is nothing as frightening as incompetence attempting malice.

Maybe Kansas City could use a different quarterback

Flesh hat head? That is a visual that will just never fade.

Celebrating the holy Super Bowl as a true American. Drinking a half Michelob ultra / half bud light clear and pale while pussing away the kids college money on the fan duel for com website.

One thing I think about a lot. Nobody has any suggestions about what we will all be doing once the great AGI is birthed upon us and our manual toil is no longer required in the workforce. What then of us? What VC is currently seeking to Disrupt the Automated Economy. What also or our utility?

Told my team that today is optional and happy to see they are mostly taking me up on it. It's been a fucking month of a week.

so as not a lawyer deep politics knower can someone explain this: If what the are doing is illegal, and they shouldn't have be where they are; shouldn't they be in a cell somewhere awaiting arraignment? Or is it small "I" illegal and not really criminal?

Was not included in the layoffs today. But man what a shitty, no good day.

a very uncertain start to the day... No information yet.

Trans rights are human rights. Pass it on.

remember a thousand years ago when Barrack Obama was president and there was serious discussion about whether or not Executive Orders should be a think allowed the president? good times...

can I just point out that the occurrence of layoffs is a pretty good indication that the company is being poorly run and is probably failing. Believing otherwise means that the cruelty is the point. And yes I understand that is what is probably is.

Well at least it looks like we won't have to wait too long for it all to come crashing down. we seem to be on the express.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

Every reporter should take every opportunity to ask Mr Trump what President Musk has planned for today. And the should address him as Mr. Trump when they do it.

The way everyone is rolling over for DOGE currently makes me feel like the security and phishing tests at work aren’t really all that important anymore. Crawling back into my book for the afternoon

I mean, if they are just winging it and making shit up, Why can't we. Like, Newsom could just be like: "As Governor of California and steward(first of his name). of one of our largest state economies I declare all EO's null and void in the state of CA, No tariffs either. I invoke the UCC too!"

we seem to have turned everything over to the toxic middle managers and their weasel worded bullshit. All over the place.

Saying "But they can't do that!" about something they just did is not going to get us too far. The "process" will not fix this. I really don't know what fixes this. But fucking hell.

Sean Connery isn't with us anymore but someone needs to grab the Dem Congressional Team by the collar and start screaming "What are you prepared to do!" at them. Because right about now it seems like nothing.

I will be 0% surprised when people on the right continue to praise the shutdown of all this money even as they are impacted by it, and at the way they place blame on "liberals/Dems/the left" without any shame

I way thought Sinclair Lewis was trying to warn us not write an instruction manual

It’s Saturday afternoon and I haven’t found any one to call “fetid moppet” yet. I was even at the mall today.

i've put a finger on what bothers me about 90% of the babybrained liberal replies on here, which is that they're smug on top of everything else. like it's satisfying that the worst is finally happening. that's the most rancid state of mind i can imagine, bewilderingly privileged, etc.

bought a nerdy mechanical keyboard and just spent an way too long replacing the switches to make it sound and feel better. So yeah I guess I'm that kinda guy now. TBF it syncs up with the fountain pens. Dear God what have I become

Mom would have been 88 this year

one thing that is really amazing to me is what appears to be the organization the right has for spreading meme and posts. I'd think it all bots but even the people who I know are people on facebook on the right all instantly have the same meme's and BS talking points up. That's tough to fight
