I really wanted a modded Xbox 360 when I was younger because I thought being able to play ‘backed up’ games and having a custom dashboard was really neat.
I ended up buying one last year to fulfill that childhood wish.
Fountain pens. Such a simple and enjoyable process/hobby, and one that made real sense to me long before the entire world did…
I’m not where I want to be today, but I managed to find a few bucks and grab a Kaweco Lilliput in brass for my bday. Cheap af but legit makes me happy - even if I’m just doodling or trying to.
Course, that means I also need to spend money on good paper, but that’s a small expense relative to cost of pens and inks, and the feeling of laying down ink from a good pen, on straight up amazing paper, is nirvana.
Bought myself a kaweco sport and a travellers notebook for work notes. I’ve found that going pen/paper for notes is a breath of fresh air compared to text editors. I find myself referring back to them more often, making bullet to-dos, and I’ve worked hard to improve my hand writing.
