The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

Ooooh, I wonder where they got *that* genius marketing idea from... 😑
Screenshot of the Kickstarter promo blurb for the MetMo Precision Grip, stating:

"Doctor, Doctor, I've Lost My Grip!
Are you thinking 'if only this was safe for surgical use and I could clean it in an autoclave?' Well, you're in luck! We've made a fully surgical stainless steel version just for that purpose. This is designed to withstand corrosion and the most stringent working conditions possible, so if you want hardcore durability, this is your tool."Screenshot of  the Q&A on the MetMo Stainless Steel Driver, dated 2026-08-16, with me asking:

"Asking for a friend: is the stainless steel version Driver autoclavable as a complete unit?"

Apparently, being constantly online on Discord was weighing me down like a millstone around my neck. I closed the browser window, and somehow I feel more at ease now, like being liberated from something that either isn't doing me a whole lot of good, or doesn't bring me the joy I desperately need. 🤔

I wanted to do some pseudo-calligraphy art to celebrate Pride Month for me and my friends, but I'm not really feeling it right now due to some recent events. I'll postpone for a bit. It's not like we should only reflect on this during a single month of the year, right?

I love having lots of fountain pens inked up, ready to go. I'm going to use this book for when I just want to practice writing a couple of lines with a random pen, without the 'obligation' to fill an entire page with a single pen in one go (like with my other practice book).
