Take this with a grain of salt, as I may be wrong, but I don't think pen nib prices have changed much since the early 2010s. Pretty crazy considering how everything else has gone up!

What's on my mind today is interior decor... doing the Great Room Makeover™ that I should have done as a teenager. It's been rose-themed for about ten years, and that's cool and all, but man have I gotten tired of pink.
.p.
So, I bought a couple new throws, a macrame wall hanging, used vinyls and a bunch of retro metal signs in an effort to make it cool, or at the very least not pink. The curtains / valances still are, but I'll be making replacements once I learn how to sew. If I ever get to that point. Textiles and I have a complicated relationship.
I have to say, it's funny looking at the different room aesthetics out there now. Cottagecore, indie, vintage, Y2K - my room was a mix of all of those in the early 2000s and my friends hated it lol. Jokes on them - I'm trendy now! back then i was just weird
