[SaH] A stadium at Longacres? Sounders say it’s possible (www.sounderatheart.com)
 

As someone who comes from the north and really values having a public transit accessible stadium in the actual city: please no.

If you want to build a stadium at longacres for Open Cups type matches, a la Starfire, and for other soccer events, sure. But otherwise...

The Sounders take on a Colorado team in the midst of chaos, on the field and off. Can the boys in green and blue (or red and yellow, which seem to be their primary uniforms these days) get the result that is there for the taking? Or will the season's trend continue - with the Sounders serving as a springboard for teams in free-fall to turn their seasons around? Tune in and find out, on tonight's episode of "which Sounders team will show up today?"

Somehow, your Seattle Sounders have struggled their way into second place in a Western Conference in chaos. Three points on the road (and, perhaps equally important, a good performance) would go a long way towards securing a playoff spot and building momentum for the stretch run.

I find that they're great for headings, titles, dates, etc - a little emphasis in my notes. With that said, my pilot metropolitan's stub nib has also always been really scratchy too, and hard starts a lot. It's always been one of my most disappointing pens.

One of my favorite stub nibs is a Jinhao 80 (Lamy 2000 clone, usually sub-$10). I swapped out the Jinhao nib for a Lamy 1.1 stub, and it writes like a dream!

Sounders sign Stuart Hawkins to MLS contract (from Tacoma Defiance) (www.mlssoccer.com)
 

Interesting roster move - Sounders and those who watch more Defiance than I do have been really bullish on his ceiling. Big vote of confidence for a 16 year old defender when we already have three quality CBs on the first team and others (eg Nouhou) who can do the job too, plus a backup (AB) with experience and a pretty good track record.

Favorite autumn inks? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nice - I had misread this as Diamine Earl Grey at first, and was very confused ("I've used this before and don't remember any orange tones!"). But it does look beautiful!

Saddle Brown also looks very nice and versatile. Do you think that you need a medium nib to get the full spectrum of shading? I've sometimes been disappointed with browns that are too light with an F nib (bought a sample of Robert Oster Caffe Crema, but it really was too light for my daily use unless in an M, B, or stub).

The SuperKitties soundtrack has absolutely no right to go as hard as it does. (lemmy.world)

The show is inane, but the music slaps.

First of all, Carmen Carter absolutely kills the vocals on SuperKitties Theme and SuperKitty Call, both hard driving 70s-ish action theme vibes. Take the xylophone solos on SuperKitty Call and inject them into my veins. My Bath, My Bubbles and Me is a goddam bop. Always In My Heart is a tearjerker that would fit in just fine on your favorite boy band album. And even the rough ones (like Cheese) are only 60 seconds long, so they're over before they can get too annoying.

Am I right, or am I just going insane because this is LITERALLY THE ONLY MUSIC I'VE BEEN ALLOWED TO LISTEN TO FOR THE LAST MONTH?

The Diamine guitar inks just generally look like nice autumn inks - nice!

That is a pretty fascinating ink - seems to be a totally different color depending on nib and paper...

Favorite autumn inks? (lemmy.world)
 

As we round the corner into autumn in the northern hemisphere, the air is a little crisper, the days are shorter, and the leaves are changing... and looking for some new inks to try out. Do you have favorite inks for the season?

W. S. Merwin - To the Light of September (lemmy.world)
 

When you are already here you appear to be only a name that tells of you whether you are present or not

and for now it seems as though you are still summer still the high familiar endless summer yet with a glint of bronze in the chill mornings and the late yellow petals of the mullein fluttering on the stalks that lean over their broken shadows across the cracked ground

but they all know that you have come the seed heads of the sage the whispering birds with nowhere to hide you to keep you for later

you who fly with them

you who are neither before nor after you who arrive with blue plums that have fallen through the night

perfect in the dew

Weird bug/feature on pixel 6 I just discovered in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, I barely use quick tap. The swipe down was so intuitive, and with a bigger phone triple tapping requires you to rebalance the phone in your hand, etc.

Do you have Quick Tap enabled? I have mine set up to show notifications (I miss the old ability to swipe down on the rear fingerprint reader), but yours might be set up to play/pause media.

Is it just the "blowhole" described here?

I don't have one of these, unfortunately, so don't have a comparison...

Fountain pen-friendly printer paper? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Follow-up - I bought this and it works great! And yes - it is really thick. I think the reams of the usual printer paper at the office are going to develop an inferiority complex. Thanks again for the recommendations!

What paper is everyone else using? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Mostly Leuchtturm, mainly because I really like their notebooks and the variety of them that are available. The paper is fine, but not like tomoe or anything like that. I mostly write at work during meetings etc., so the notebook is equally important to me. Open to other suggestions though!

Yeah, even though slow motion makes it look worse, I was shocked that it wasn't given in real time. But the commentary team was convinced that it was just a natural body position. I continue to have no idea what constitutes a handball in the box.
