It does require much more regular cleaning than any of my other pens. I’m typically not much into the shimmer inks, but Heart of Gold is amazing!

I’ve been on it for about two years. It has helped me control my anxiety fairly well, but I can’t really speak to weight effects. I have gained weight over the last couple of years, but I also started working from home and have had several major stressors during that span of time. Plus, I’m staring down the age of 50 so my metabolism is also slowing. I didn’t notice any side effects from it at all, though, and it has been very well tolerated by my system.
I hope that helped, and good luck spinning the Wheel of Drugs!
I’ve been wanting to learn blacklettering and wondering if the Parallel was a decent pen for it. I think I’ll need to pick one up!
Hello everyone! Yet another Reddit Refugee, here. I’m a network engineer and DIYer with a passion for calculators, fountain pens, and mechanical pencils. Been on Red Matrix/Hubzilla for years, and I’m looking forward to seeing what this part of the Fediverse is like!
I have a Vac 700R, too. The TWSBI feels much more substantial than the V126, but it is also twice the price as well. I’d definitely recommend trying one out, though!
