/c/café daily chat thread for 31 July 2023
(self.cafe)
Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

backstory: i was in southern africa for work, and collected a couple of fallen feathers sebagai kenangan. anyway this last few days, i finally turned one of them into a quill pen, and i sketched my cat. oh! the fountain pen ink is a malaysia special series, if you're into that sort of thing. ok, sekian.
I’m into it! Where to get the ink?
Coincidentally yesterday I unearthed my old calligraphy tools to give to my niece. My ink, my nibs, my old practice sheets… oh man brings back such nostalgia
I got link to their website in my post! Pen Gallery is also on Shopee, and if you rajin their shop is at SS2. There are three more Malaysia inks they did with Diamine Inks, I haven't bought the newest one (Ungu Senja) but the others I did cos I can't resist a good gimmick. Jalur Gemilang is like Manggis, but it's deep blue with red-purple sheen. Kopi O Kaw is a nice brown that legit smells like coffee.
If u want to restock new calligraphy stuff also can I think.... meracun mode
Pls don’t racun! I’ve barely used them since my wedding and I now have 1.5 kids lol. I do miss it though, so therapeutic. I will allow myself to be racuned once kids get big enough that I can safely have ink pots open without having to worry toddlers are gonna toddle and spill them all over…
Those inks you mention even just from the names are so enticing. Manggis for a purple… hngh
