I just finished reading through your new article on fountain pens; thank you for your thoughtful response! The sakura engraving on that nib is absolutely beautiful. I'm quite envious of the amount of stationery stores and community you seem to have available to you, considering I'm from a rather small Irish town with very few people (if any) to discuss this hobby with.

It would be nice to be able to test and buy fountain pens in person, but alas. My first fountain pen was a gift from a friend so I'm unsure of the brand, but after this I got a LAMY Safari because it was a widely recommended beginner choice. It writes well, and I love extra fine nibs, but the plastic barrel isn't ideal. I recommend testing dip pens someday; less convenient, but I use them for writing penpals letters.

No worries! I'm really happy that you asked about it and I'm always down to enable someone on fountain pens LOL The pen is really beautiful irl and I can see why it sells out so quickly, I just had my lucky streak that day! Your friend is so nice to gift you a fountain pen ^^ I've been wanting to get a dip pen too, writing letters seem like a good idea to try and I might give it a shot one day ^^b

This looks like a wonderful site already, and I'm very excited to see what else you add to it; especially what you might write. I like the fountain pen ink reference, also, as I've recently begun using fountain and dip pens everyday. I'd be interested in hearing about your collection or thoughts on using fountain pens, and if you have any recommendations. :]

Interesting timing for your book club article! I helped make a bookclub here on Neocities that I just decided to step away from, though not from any negative feelings: Just busy & have been less interested in online community & friendship. If I had made a book club in HS though, I'd have felt similarly to you. I sort of skipped ever reading YA novels & whatnot & went straight to literary fiction.

I'd be interested in hearing about why you have decided to move away from online community and friendship if you ever decide to write or share anything on it. I've been struggling with my relationship with my phone and the internet recently, also, and am trying to limit it severely. And, yes... Social media is a poison when it comes to reading.

I'll have to write something up later then, because I've been meaning to for a while! There are just so many different thoughts I have about it that it's been hard to organize them.

Say, I got my hand on some liver meat. Do I just eat it out of the bag or is there a proper way of preparing it?

2 likes

literaturegirl 2 years ago

The classic way to eat it is fried in butter with onions, but since I don't like onions I just eat it alone, fried in pure butter. Lamb liver is what I usually have. The taste will never be amazing, and you'll notice a bit of a gritty texture, especially if it's more well-done. Really, though, it's not as bad as people say it is. It just tastes like slightly old meat, in my opinion.

literaturegirl 2 years ago

If you don't like eating it as is, you can also always opt for pate or mix it in with some other meat. The only reservation you should have is that you don't need to eat more than one serving a week or so, due to potential vitamin A toxicity if you overeat it somehow. (That is unlikely, but nonetheless.)

I highly reccomend dirty rice: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/276821/dirty-dirty-rice/ I have only tried it with chicken liver, but I think it ought to work with any sort.

Likewise! I love your focus on philosophy. Always happy to find sites that even dabble in the topic, nevermind devote themselves to it fully. I have also found that the more I 'dabble' in reading and studying philosophy the more I realise it's not something that's exactly possible to only dabble in. And so the slippery slope goes. :^)

Since the Neocities default thumbnail doesn't let us know... The final chapter in "Lament, To be Loved by the World and God" has dropped on Neocities. There's nothing useful in earning envy if it's for the wrong thing.

What a wonderful archive of books you have, cap! Although, as a fellow Christian, I would recommend you keep away from some of the witchcraft found under curiosities. I say this as one who fell of due to curiosity regarding those subjects, our path is straight, and the miracles of God are simple and good.

Why thank you Tevada! I must say you have a very wonderful website and I'm surprised I havent stumbled upon it earlier. As for the witchcraft items, I don't see research of the occult to be a harmful practice, unlike practicing the dark arts. Observation does not necessitate condoning or participating. I find the ways of other beliefs interesting, even if I don't think them to be good and correct.

thelesserword 2 years ago

Well I'm glad to hear you haven't made the mistake of participating like myself, thank God. However, we should warn ourselves, innocent intentions or no, if something we allow people to observe leads another to sin then we are implicated as the one who doled out the poison (sin) for that person to take. This isn't my idea, but St. John of Chrysotom's back when he preached about modest apparel.

Cont. And of this we should pray, so as to not add our sin to others. To illustrate what the St. meant. An actress who causes millions to sin against the Lord through her pictures would be implicated in their sin. Now, I understand the allure of observing those texts and lifestyles. I did it myself. But by our Gospels, it would be appropriate to burn those things, and if not, turn ourselves away (Acts 19:19).

Oh, and forgive me for clogging you with comments. Admonishments shouldn't be on a public forum. I should have done this through email (though I don't think the contact link on your site works) +_+, I have sinned. If you like, you may delete this thread.

Oh I will absolutely not delete this! I am very grateful for your comments, and appreciate the time and thought you put into them. I understand your fears, and the point of view from where you come from. I should probably do better by advising people against pursuing these topics in a more public manner. My soul is that of an archivist, however, and burning books is just not in my blood.

Cont. I believe, instead, (and I find this to be a better method of approaching it, not just lesser way of going about it) that any bad ideas are best counteracted by the sharing of good ideas in a more convincing manner. Showing people WHY something is bad, enabling them to understand it and it's consequences, is better than shielding them from it.

Cont. Eventually they might learn about it, and feel as if they were kept away from power, as opposed to being kept away from danger. And even if those ideas were to be wiped out, the devil for sure would make it so someone re-discovers them.

Soul of an archivist. That's... good, why perhaps if this were a different time you'd make an excellent scribe. You're right, if we have to know good and evil in this world, then the devil would just make them come about again if we burned those books. Suppose that's why the Vatican has a library of cursed books for who knows what spirit shall leave them if we were to ought right burn them.

Cont. Still, I would offer you to pray about the matter. Keep those books if you like, but back to St. John of Chrysotom's exhortation, holding sinful books in your library is like a woman who claims to appreciate modesty without dressing modestly herself. She may claim to value chastity (more often than not she does), but her decisions regarding her appearance causes others to sin, which implicates her in sin.

I do wish, at some point, perhaps in the near future, to change my legal name. And at that point I shall take up the name of St. Lawrence (patron saint of archivists, librarians, comedians, brewers, barbecues (all of the things in life i like), and students (for I am forever a student, forever learning in life))

Cont. In short, by God, if you're actions may cause others to sin, then it would be best to quit that action, no matter how seemingly innocent it may be. Ultimately, that's the crux of it, and I probably fail at it too sometimes. Still, as the Gospels say, let us strive towards perfection. Ah, I should go eat. This place better not become my new social media addiction.

I shall pray on it, worry not! Though all your worry is greatly appreciated, thank you for looking out for me. I will of course be very careful should I lend any of the books of the sort I own out to people. I would make sure they have purely an academic interest in them, and not seeking to practice strange rituals or fall victim to worshipping demons

Capstasher as St. Lawrence... hah! That's a pretty good name! But about legal names, you have a book on Spain don't you? Why not just add Lawrence to your existing legal name? I have five names, one from birth and one from baptism, with the other three for legal applications. But no, Lawrence, that is tasteful, sir.

I seek to change my name to my mother's maiden name. Some personal reasons have led to that decision, but it's certain to say I do wish to have quite a large name. Probably in my native tongue, especially if I chose not to remain in the UK after university (though might be English if I remain). Long name, coat of arms, and plenty of treasures collected through my life, I plan to leave my family a lasting legacy
