I'm a fan of the Karas Kustoms Retrakt. I'm a nurse at a facility that still paper charts, so I write a ton at work. I find it to be a nice middle ground. You can get them on sale for decent prices and the weight on the aluminum version is nice.
I've got a tactile turn as well. I'd say that the details on it are nicer, it is a pricier pen, than the KK, but I find it to be too heavy for long writing sessions.
Congress passed the bill back in the 70s. They'd have to pass another bill to undo it. With corporate lobbying from the auto manufacturers it's very unlikely. They make bank on SUVs and trucks. Hell, the only model Ford sells that isn't a truck or SUV is the Mustang.
A federal judge in texas ruled last year that preventing people under indictment from purchasing firearms was unconstitutional based on the Supreme Court's Bruen decision, just FYI. So I don't think the situation is as cut and dry as it would have been just a couple years ago.
I dunno what state you live in, but the majority of what you stated isn't true in the vast majority of the country.
They also teach now to use the provided additional set of pads to basically wax the chest.
They make glasses lenses and contact specific for astigmatism. I've got the same problem and have been looking into it. I have found that polarized clear lenses on a non prescription pair of glasses is somewhat helpful.
I'm a fan of the Schmidt p9000 fine. It's a g2 size refill. I'm a nurse and my facility still has paper charts for certain day to day things, so I write quite a bit. Definitely recommend a try. They're around $2.50 each.
No problem! I get that about the first two, but they're really interesting. Of course It Could Happen Here is fiction, but his stories / predictions ended up having quite a few eerie synchronicities to what happened in the years following its release in 2019. Breaking down collapse is much more analytical and heady than conspiratorial. They talk about stuff like why monocultures crops are bad, the decline in insect population, or like how complicated and poorly understood the financial system is and how that sets us up for instability. Their followup podcast is called Building Up: Resilience. I haven't started it yet, though
Parents man... The other day my dad told me he wanted to watch some new movie because, and this is literally what he said, "it looks violent." I didn't know how to respond. Like, I consume media that has violence in it, but as an adult I'd never watch or play something solely for the fact that some dude beats the shit out of people in it? It's sad.
