[Reposting, as it didn’t federate properly last time]

This is a parker IM I’ve had in my collection a while. I don’t usually go for Parker branded pens. I usually find them a bit boring/vanilla. But when I saw this one come up pristine on Ebay, I thought I’d give it a go.

It looks nice, but sadly it doesn’t seal well. There’s a hole under the clip that lets air in. Why? I guess I could try to cover it.

    I loved my mini disc player growing up, still got it and it still works (sorry not fountain pen related!)

          Is there such a thing as too niche?

          Asking for a friend that would not mind finding a community of like-minded users of analog Zettelkasten note-taking — We don’t need no application/We don’t need no algorithm/No bugged updates in our workflow/Devs leave our notes alone. That friend would also not mind finding a community of authors of all kinds that prefer drafting their prose longhand, using a fountain pen, or a typewriter, instead of all those so wonderfully optimized digital tools we’re now buried under. Well, maybe you’re right and that could be too niche ;)

          PS: my most sincere apologies to The Pink Floyd, obviously.
