Just found out that the person who makes my favourite pen inks is a total cooker and raging racist. (hexbear.net)

Noodlers ink btw.

Doing more writing by hand lately and was looking at some new ink. Now I've got to find other achivist ink cause I'm sure as hell not giving money to someone who dogwhistles about "western civilisation" and brands with that racist's flag from the usa.

Sigh. I just liked the green.

What pen do you use?

I used to use a lammy safari, it was ok. At some point the nib fell out and got lost and replacements are stupid expensive.

Tried a pilot and fount it scratchy and leaky. Got annoyed.

Bowed to the cultural and technical superiority of Chinese engineers and bought an asvine v126 recently after getting the shits with the pilot's cap filling with ink again. By far both the cheapest and best pen I've used.

Only negative is that the feed rate is a little slow for really fast writing or sketching, but also it doesn't blast your page or drip/leak when throwing a bag around so swings and roundabouts.
